The whole youths were gathered together outside the tent that was built for first aid purposes. All the youth were given one plate, one bole, one cup and a spoon each.
When they had all gotten their utensils, they were ushered to their separate hostels.
The boys hostels was a large empty hall without mattresses or bunkers to sleep on. Although the hall was clean and there were standing fans all over hanging around like statues line up in a palace garden.
The walls were painted in a color that looked like 'sky blue'. Making the hall look like an high school dormitory.
"DROP YOUR BAGS PEOPLE!" A man shouted from the crowed as he walked to the end of the hall.
All the boys turned their attention to the man who looked he was in his late 30's. He was bald headed and he was fit, agile, galant, and jungle-ready. He had muscles almost tearing out of his skin like he had been training all his life.
"My name is Daniel, and I am your commander for the duration of time you are to spend here in this Bootcamp!" He shouted again!
"I want you all to drop your bags and follow me to where you can pick up your beds!" He shouted and walked out the back door.
Immediately, the all the boys took to their heels and rushed following the commander.
Ben was already starting to feel like he had signed up for a military training. And that made him feel sick.
He was thinking how the girls hostel would be like now as he followed the other boys to where they were to get their mattresses.
Meanwhile, in the girls hostel, a very beautiful lady probably 24-25yrs of age was the female codinator or "commander" as Daniel would say.
The girls hostel was already made beautiful, the mattresses were already there and very fine jungle wallpapers were plastered on the walls of the hall, making it look somewhat girly.
Soon they were all settled in their hostels.
In the boys hostel, there were no bunkers so they had to lay the mattresses on the floor.
Ben could only remember his bed back home was a 'thousand' times better than this wary looking mattress that he was given to sleep on. "I wonder if there are bugs in this old looking mattress that look like what was used in the 1980s for sick people".he thought to himself.
Later that day, Daniel came into the boys hostel with a bell and rang it to catch the attention of everyone. And when they had finally turned to his direction, he lifted a box that looks like the size of a big loaf of bread.
"I have with me this box containing tickets for your meal so I need you all to line yourselves up in a straight file and I will give you a ticket for each person. you understand!" He shouted.
And all the boys quickly arranged themselves to queue up to get the tickets for dinner as the sun was already set.
When they all got the tickets, they went out to look for where they to get the food. Some of the boys looked like they had not eaten all day.
They were told by one of the security men that they could get their food in the tent that looked like a mini sick-bay . They all started to walk to the tent.
From a distance, they saw that the girls were already there and had queued up waiting for the vendors to bring out the food.
So quickly the boys formed another queue beside the girls and in a minute some men and women came out of the tent with big coolers and pots the size of small deep freezers filed with various kind of foods.
The women were to dish out the food to the youths and the men were to supply the women with more pots and coolers of food as it goes.
After a wonderful meal, they all went back to their hostels but Ben stayed behind a little longer to see if he could get a glimpse of Aina but the crowd was his major obstruction. "Maybe tomorrow I might see her" he thought to himself as he walked to his hostel lay on the mattress and slept off.
