"What do you mean Akira? Am I thinking what you are trying to say?"

"Well, I don't know how to be more explicit Jaby."

"But why would she do that? Why would she tamper the reports? What did she tell you about?"

Taking a deep breath Akira said,

"Check your WhatsApp. I have sent you a snapshot."

Dr. Nelson read the report snapshot -

PREDICTIVE_ANALYSIS_WEEK28 - Chances of partial paralysis 29.16 %

Rate of increase = 1.065 % week on week

Memory loss ratio = 0 : 0.0073

"What the hell is this?"

"This is the predictive analysis report which has been given by Dr. Oshana to Raymond."

Dr. Nelson recollected the conversation that he had with Akira on the very first day that they had met.

"So is that why you were asking if he is going to lose his memory?"

"Is that why you asked about the chances of him having a paralysis?"

Saying that he pinched the space between his brows regretting the fact that he thought of her as someone getting overly neurotic and skeptical about the whole issue. He remembered how he explained to her that her fears were absurd. Now he understood the reality behind it.

"This is just a glimpse of one of the reports. I do not know what else she has played with. But most importantly she has played with my Raymond's mind, his confidence. She rendered him immobile with these reports. You have no idea what rift this report had created between us Jaby. And the only person on whom I can count on is you right now. I need your help to expose her as soon as possible. I need concrete evidence."

"Don't worry even a dot Akira. I will make sure, I conduct all the tests today as and when he arrives. I will leave no stone unturned. I know how wrecked you must have felt seeing the reports."

Akira smiled as he heard him say those words and said,

"Well, that phase is over now. All that I want now is the accurate result to bring solace to the aching heart of Raymond."

"Will do my best. Rest assured Akira."

"Thanks, Jaby. I have no words to say how grateful I am to have met you in my life."

Dr. Nelson heard her and stayed silent for a moment and then said,

"Likewise Akira."

But at the back of his mind only he knew how ecstatic he was to have her in his life. But he was falling short of words to express them.

Enveloping the thoughts inside of his mind, he asked,

"Do you know any particular enemy of Raymond? Or maybe someone would have tampered with the results?"

"I am trying to figure that part out. You can leave that part to me."

"If you want, I can try to talk with Dr. Oshana and figure it out."

"No...."

Akira legit screamed at the top of her lungs after hearing his words.

"I do not trust her. No amount of talking or delegating is going to work out with her. She is working for someone. What, how and why is what I am going to figure out on my own. With the amount of risk already involved I cannot let anyone mess anything up right now. So now all I need you to do is to conduct the tests and send me those reports."

There was a strange command and authority in her voice as she talked and sensing that Dr. Nelson knew that it was not his domain to intrude inside and that she was fiercely protective about her interests and was well aware as to where to draw the margin for people.

So sensing that he said,

"Fine, I will just do my part."

Hearing his voice and the way he spoke Akira realized that she had come out too strong on him. So she said,

"Listen Jaby, there are very few people that I trust in this world. A very few. I have friends who have turned against me, ready to rip my life into pieces. So when I trust you, you must know how much faith I have put into you."

"It's ok Akira. I understand you. You do not need to explain anything to me."

"Thanks, Jaby."

But then before Dr. Nelson could reply to her, Dr. Nelson's secretary buzzed in.

"Mr. Raymond Walker is waiting for you doctor."

"In two minutes."

Then coming back to the call, Dr. Nelson said,

"He is here Akira. Is there anything else that you want?"

"Umm... there is this one thing."

"What Akira?"

"I need you to run one more test for me."

"What test Akira?"

"Erm... It's nothing. Just ignore it. Go and attend to him now."

Ending the call, Akira pressed the button of the elevator and mumbled,

"What on earth was I thinking?"
