He was carrying his suitcase in his hand, and he was still dressed in suit. Yeah, that's what he came in with in the morning...so, what else. He strolled straight to where Leonard was standing. Leonard stood up the moment he sighted the manager come out of his office. Reaching the spot where Leonard was standing, he inquired of him,
"We can move now, right? You ready, right?".
"Yeah, wholly ready". Leonard responded.
"OK, we move then".
After making that statement, the manager addressed everyone on the first floor,
"I and Leonard would be visiting our two current magnificent projects. The two buildings that this company is currently working on. Most of you here have seen the buildings, you've been to the sites. So I just wanna take the newest worker of this company to catch a glimpse of the buildings. We'll be going now".
Everyone on the first floor just nodded their heads to what the manager said. Then he and Leonard sauntered straight to the staircase and descended from it. Reaching the last floor, the manager told the workers there the same thing he told those on the first floor. Then he and Leonard strolled to the door that leads outside, opened it, and stepped outside.
Leonard didn't see the security guard standing in front of the company, thank goodness. But after some seconds, he popped out of nowhere. Leonard could also see some men with helmets on their heads, they were standing close to a van. The manager walked straight to meet them after they came out of the edifice, and after two minutes of discussing with them, he sauntered back to meet Leonard and uttered to him,
"Those men I just spoke with now are doing a lot of work on the sites, we'll be going now", Then he pointed at a black Honda car and said to Leonard once again, "Let's go enter that car, that's my car".
The both of them began walking straight to the car. And as they sauntered, Leonard noticed those men in helmets entering that van they were standing close to. They both reached the car, opened the doors, and hopped into it. While all these events were taking place, the guard just stood there glancing at them. The van first drove off, then the manager sped off also following them from behind.
If we check things out, this was the first time Leonard was entering a car properly since he transmigrated into this earth. The first time he entered a car on this earth, he stayed in the boot. They drove and drove as Leonard kept on glancing at the windscreen, he was glancing around. After some minutes more, they arrived at the first site, the first building.
All the men in the van come out of it, then Leonard and the manager came out of the Honda car. Coming out, Leonard sighted the building they were working on, men, it was tall and f**king spacious. Like, they hadn't even started the third phase of the construction, but Leonard could already tell that it would be a cool and solid building once they were done.
Workers were everywhere, the ones that do the labor. They were all wearing helmets and they were focused on their work. The men in helmets walked straight to the building to join the workers. Whether to join them in working or to ask them questions...no one knows. One of the men handed Leonard and the manager a helmet each and said to them,
"In case if you wanna explore the building, put this on...a very good safety precaution method".
After making that statement, he walked away from their presence. The manager glanced at Leonard and asked,
"Do you wanna explore? Though it's not a complete building yet".
"Yeah, I wanna explore". Leonard retorted.
"Then put on your helmet, let's get going".
The manager left his suitcase in the car so it wouldn't disturb him. He brought it here 'cause there were some important documents in it he wanted to hand over to someone. The both of them strolled to the building and began exploring it making sure not to disturb the workers. As they explored, Leonard uttered to the manager,
"Sir, I have a question to ask".
"Go on, am all ears". The manager stated permitting him.
"Umm..this building is tall and it's spacious. The people or person we are constructing it for, do you have an idea on what they plan on using it for? Is it a residence building?".
"No, it isn't a residence building. The first thing you need to know is that it's one person that owns this building. And the person plan on using it for business purposes. I'm sure of one thing, part of this building is going to be a plaza. Apart from that, I know nothing else. All I know is that our company is already playing its part by constructing this building according to the agreement".
Leonard nodded his head in understanding and voiced out, "Ohh, understood".
"The building is gonna be great, right?". The manager asked Leonard.
"Yeah, though it hasn't been completed, I can tell that it's gonna be a great building. Anyone that set eyes on it would easily confirm that".
"We'll soon head over to the second building, the next site. But I'll talk with some of the workers first".
Done exploring the building, the manager gathered some of the workers and told them a few things. Then he talked with those men that arrived at this site with a van. Done talking with them, he sauntered to where Leonard was standing as the both of them took off the helmets they were wearing and handed them over to one of the workers. Then they both strolled to the manager's black Honda car and entered it...then the manager sped off.
They were on the road once again. Inside the car, Leonard and the manager discussed until they arrived at the next site. The both of them hopped out of the car, and Leonard didn't waste time glancing at the uncompleted structure. It was also a cool building though it hasn't been completed. But it wasn't as tall and vast as the first building. And more work has been done to this one than the other.
There were also workers in helmets working. The manager glanced at Leonard and said,
"This is the second building".
The both of them strolled further, and the moment the workers sighted the manager, they stopped what they were doing and greeted him. The manager just waved at them and told them to continue working. Just as they did in the first building, Leonard and the manager explored this building also. But before that, they were given helmets to wear, safety is very important. As they explored, they conversed.
Leonard said to the manager, "This building isn't as big as the first one".
The manager uttered, "Yeah, you know? That one is for business purposes, while this one is for residence".
"For residence?".
"Yeah, I'll say it's owned by one person and it isn't owned by one person".
"Why do you say so?". Leonard asked a little confused.
"That's 'cause the person isn't building it to reside in, he's building it for renting purpose...for other people to reside in while paying him yearly". The manager explained.
"Ohh, fully understood".
The manager uttered once again, "You know, our company has engaged in lots of constructions, and we've never gotten a negative review, and I hope we won't get one any time soon".
"So, we'll be heading back to the company now, right?". Leonard inquired of the manager.
"Not yet, someone would be coming here soon to sign and collect some important documents. After that, we can go. Let me call the person to remind him".
"OK then".
With that, the manager took his phone from his pocket and put a call through, after some seconds, he started speaking with someone on the phone...then the phone conversation ended. After the phone conversation, the manager glanced at Leonard and said,
"He's on his way".
Leonard just nodded his head and smiled. Not long after, a car arrived in front of the site, and a man in shirt came out of it. He strolled over to the manager, and the both of them began conversing...Leonard heard their conversation loud and clear. After about a minute, the manager sauntered to his black Honda car, opened the door, brought out his suitcase, and took some documents from it.
Then he sauntered back to the man and handed the documents over to him. The man took a pen from his pocket and signed some things in the documents as the manager watched him closely. Then he strolled to his car holding the documents in his hand, opened the door of his car, entered it...and drove off.
There were times when I had to use two words twice while writing this novel. For example, using 'That' twice. I just had to write it that way for the sentence structure to flow.
I put a lot of effort into editing, but definitely, grammatical errors would still flow in. And maybe, spelling typos, bear with the author.
I want you guys to do this for me.
If you find this book's grammar good and easy to read, type 'G'.
But if you find it hard to read 'cause of grammatical errors, type, 'B'.
