The strong allegations!!!
Last Updated:
2021-03-30 19:35:32“The nature of this project!!!” Antoine asked to Jerika but he was more focused on people surrounding them and whispering about them. They were having nice gossip. A new Project Head fighting with the most potent colleague, what kind of message does that fight implies.
“Yes!!! This is the similar project on which you were working two years back and then that accident happened and now when everything is prepared and when we just needed to launch it, you emerge as our leader” Jerika said. Antoine did practically nothing for this project and the headship was platted to him on the silver plate. It was just not right. It was completely unfair and everybody knew it but no one will say it because everyone was selfish and sycophant.
“Either you are too drunk or too insane. You yourself just said that whatever happened two years ago was an accident and it was that. I mean whole world knows that so why are you trying to find the things in it which it does not have. I think you need rest and leave” Antoine said. Jerika was now crossing the line. She was saying things which no one had courage to say and it will reflect badly on his image. He was just not even started working and he did not want people to have ridicule gossip and an awful mindset about him. It can influence people against him and he was not ready for that.
“What?” Jerika said. She could not believe that Antoine was suggesting for leave when the project was at its peak. They were almost done. All the preparations were made and now were the action time and now she was told that she should take leave and that too from him.
“You need to take some leave and relax your mind” Antoine said. Maybe that is how she can have some peace in her mind and in her soul.
“I was working fine. I have not taken a single day leave in the past two years so why now? Are you so afraid that I will expose you in front of the world?” Jerika said. Jerika threatened Antoine in front of everyone and it was pretty insulting to him.
“Jerika you have been my friend. Now it does not matter what you think but you will always be my friend and I want you to be happy. I do but the direction you are leading on will take you to your grave and I have lost enough people in my life”
“You lost people and I lost my life” Jerika said and Antoine felt a pint of pain in hearing that. He knew that Jerika lost a lot and probably everything but nothing could be done about that now. Jerika needed to let all the things go and start fresh.
“Do not be so dramatic” Antoine told Jerika.
“Ohh Please Antoine, the drama as you called is just begun” Jerika said.
“What do you want? What can I do for you?” Antoine asked Jerika. He was defeated and just wanted Jerika to stop but it looked like she was taking out her anger on him from two years. It will take time to settle.
“Really… You want to do something for me then I want you out of this project now” Jerika said and Antoine closed his eyes and regretted, why did he said that? Why did he ask for what she wants? It was clear what she wants and she cannot get it… she knew it too but still she will fight for that. She was acting like a child now. A brat to be honest.
“Are you serious?” Antoine asked.
“Admit it… you know that you should not have been here” Jerika said and Antoine looked around people taking more interest in their fight. It was definitely going to cause trouble somehow but how to tackle it… how to stop it?
“And then who will carry this project? You!!!” Antoine asked. He knew she wanted that project and why did she wanted that it was very well known to Antoine and he knew that Jerika knew that too.
“Am I so bad?” Jerika asked.
“You are inexperienced” Antoine said and he was right.
“Says who?” Jerika asked again.
“You did… your inexperience is literally a live example by your choice of words and your understanding of situation. I do not understand why you have to make everything about yourself” Antoine said.
“I am sorry what?” Jerika said. She was offended with Antoine’s words.
“You heard me… you… you… you are my friend and I will always wish the best for you but right now you are being the utter nonsense and I am sorry I do not think you can even be a part of this project” Antoine said. He was making things easy for himself and for Jerika too. The things will go better this way otherwise Jerika will end up getting hurt.
“I think you are mistaken… I have worked for this project so hard for last two years and you have no right to decide who is going to be a part of it and who will not” Jerika said. Jerika was acting as an immature person and she knew that. It was her weakness and she had no control over that.
“Guess what… I can decide and I decide you will not be a part of this project. You know why because I am the leader… I am the bloody project head and you are out of this project” Antoine said while busting on Jerika. Antoine was practically shouting on Jerika and Jerika was practically yelling on Antoine.
“What will you say? How will you justify your actions to the whole team?” Jerika asked. Jerika made her place inside the team very well and the team which was going to be leaded by Antoine and he will be going to be the one answering all the questions and queries of the team. The team will not accept this change readily because Jerika too had some loyal and real friends inside the project. There will be voices and Jerika will make sure of that.
“Simply… I will let them know that their colleague is unfit to take this job. She is disturbed and she needs rest to process her mind and her thoughts because she has not gotten in past two year after the great tragedy in her life” Antoine said and it was the hard blow for Jerika. How could he say that? How could he talk about her like that? She was not disturbed… and she was in her correct mind but of course he will say that because he was scared of her.
“You are such a bastard but let me be a true friend and help you in all this. I am leaving the station and I am leaving this project. Before going… I only want to say one thing… that you know… I used to think that because I am new and may be a woman… only woman working for this project then everything was going crazy around me but now I realized that it is not my sex but myself which makes me unfit for this job. I never thought that I will be this scary to you and I will be this danger for you all to go through so many things to just get me out of this project. I think now you and your management will be so happy and congratulations by the way but I promise I will take you down one day… I will expose you and your little management. I will take down those walls and I will let the world know that you all are liars” Jerika said and threatened Antoine in clear words. The words were clear that no truce now and also in future can be made between Jerika and Antoine as the distance between them was too deep and no one was ready to cover that distance. Antoine did not want to fall in the deep pit but Jerika seems like was already in the pit.

RUMMAGE The message!!!
Jerika left and Antoine was clearly embarrassed by the whole scene created by Jerika. Everybody watched the fight between Jerika and Antoine and everybody was talking, whispering about it. Everyone got the hot topic for the day to discuss and Antoine was clearly embarrassed by everything. He placed his glass on the counter and went to balcony to get some air. His mind was repeating the Jerika’s words again and again. He had no idea what to do and how to solve the differences between Jerika and him. In the midst of his thoughts, Antoine’s phone blinked. He got someone’s message.[Meet us at conference hall now. Need to discuss the project detail and about the further proceedings]Antoine read the message. He breathes heavily because he did his job brilliantly and he knew that the management will be very happy by him.Antoine went to the conference hall and he saw the Mr. Riley sitting there.“You did not come to the party sir”

“You did not come to the party sir” Antoine said while taking a seat in the nearby table.“It is okay… I am enjoying myself from right here” Mr. Riley from the management said.“I did my job” Antoine said. Mr. Riley’s instructions to him were clear that firstly he needs to see if Jerika could be trusted and if not then anyhow she was needed to take out from this project. The means for removing Jerika was not important. Mr. Riley was ready to go to any length; he just cared about the ultimate result but Antoine did not want blood on his hand… not any more especially not Jerika’s. he was already guilty of killing his one friend… he did not know what he will do with other but he hoped for one thing that a day will come when Jerika and he will mend their differences and go back normal. It was a hope… a false hope because that was the only thing Antoine could do.“Oh… yes…

Brian woke up again and he still found himself lying on the hospital bed. He remembered his accident and also that someone hit him on the head earlier. Brian looked around to find someone. He wondered who hit him and why? There was no one in the room. His head was hurting. He tried to stand up and ran away but before he could make his escape, the nurse came inside.“Where do you think you are going?” the nurse said looking at Brian trying to get out of his bed. The nurses were anxious because of Brian. Whenever he gets up, he starts of going out… he tried to go away. It was like a constant eye was needed for him who can take care of him all the time.“I am not safe here. Let me go” Brian said trying to stand up but the medications on him were still making his head funny. It was like he was drugged. Was he really drugged?“It is a hospital… the safest place” the nurse said helping Brian to lie back on his bed. He

Jerika grabbed a glass and pour herself a drink. She put on some nice music and sat on floor in front of her couch resting her lead on it. She was reflecting on past two years and way before than that when she heard her door bell ringing. She avoided looking at it. She decided to ignore it. Whoever must be, the person will go away itself. Jerika was in no mood to entertain anyone right now but the door bell kept ringing. The only thing which was irritating Jerika was the fact that the continuous ringing was spoiling the atmosphere and the soft nice music Jerika played but still she did not get up to look at the person who was on the door because she had a hunch who it could be. If she was thinking the right person ringing the door then she must not open the door at all, even to make him go way because that will be a difficult task.The man did not stop there. The man was adamant in talking and meeting with Jerika and he knew how to pursue her to talk. The man went around the

“Still it is good news after all. I thought this day was the worst but something happened at least” Jerika said. Jerika really and a tough day and she just wanted to get over with it but this day gets better… all thanks to Daulat and then to Brian too. She was so thankful that Brain woke up and she was also thankful to Daulat who came all the way to tell her the good news she needed to hear the most.“I will not be so sure about that and you should not be too. Do not get your hopes up so easily” Daulat said. Daulat doubted Brian’s actions so he did not want Jerika to have high hopes for him because that will in the end only end up hurting her.“Do not say that. Do not ever say that. I needed this” Jerika said. Jerika was not sure why Daulat was trying to take way the happiness for Jerika. Jerika found a reason to be happy after so long time and it felt good that she was having a reason to feel good for. Jerika hoped that

“The things did not go according to the plan” Jerika said and she was saying the right thing. Jerika planned everything and she had everything prepared if she would have been appointed as Project head but that was not the case. Jerika was not sure how to go forward from here but Brian’s news was definitely a boost up for Jerika and she can definitely find a better way to move forward now. Definitely something or other will happen which will ultimately help her to get the truth and things to be done as she wanted them to be.“That is not great news!!! What happened?” Daulat said. Daulat knew that Jerika worked hard for that title but still she was not awarded wit it so it must be very heartbreaking for Jerika.“Nothing… just” Jerika said but the she stopped in the middle. She did not know what to say. She remembered what she said to Antoine before leaving the celebration hall.[You are such a bastard but let me be

“Still… you need to go” Daulat said. Daulat knew that when Jerika will think about it clearly she too will reach to the similar conclusion and she too will admit that he was right. Everything was happening inside that station and Jerika had a perfect chance to catch those people during their act when they were trying to do the things they are not suppose to. It was a perfect opportunity for Jerika to catch the culprits red-handed and for that it was very important that Jerika go back to the station as the tea member of that project and work there.“Were you not listening before… that is out of the option?” Jerika yelled while making the hand movements like she was shouting slogans. It looked funny and stupid at the same time and Daulat was not sure either he should laugh or try to knock some senses in Jerika’s funny little head. On the other hand, knocking any sense will be difficult in Jerika’s condition right now because she

“How? I am sure I will be getting my resignation by tomorrow. I insulted him in front of everyone, the management, and the people and in front of the team he was appointed as the leader for” Jerika said.“How did you get in there in the first place?” Daulat asked.“How did I? You know how I did?” Jerika said.“Use that source again” Daulat suggested.“I am not going to do that… I am not going to beg him again” Jerika told Daulat.“Come on… he is your only living family and you know he will do anything if you will ask him to especially now when he knows your condition” Daulat said.“My condition!!! Have you been ratting me out this entire time?” Jerika asked.“He gets worried!!! He asks for you and you should go visit him. Besides he is the only person who can get you inside the Zion and also fulfill all your terms” Daulat answ

RUMMAGE Broken hearts and Broken trusts
“What proof is it? Can it prove his innocence?” Brian asked. “No… not really. But it helps in proving someone else’s involvement” Jerika said. “Who?” Brian asked. “You… it is the proof against you” Jerika answered. “I want to look at this proof. I want to know why you so persistently believe my involvement in your late husband’s demise” Brian said. Jerika had been blaming him and Brian was more than eager to know why? Brian knew he was not a saint and he silently prayed that whatever the proof Jerika holds against him should not be enough. He remembered nothing of the sot Jerika was talking about but Brian knew exactly what he was capable of and that worried him. He did not wish to become the reason of causing pain to Jerika. But Brian also knew he cannot run away from the truth… the least he could do was to find out what the commotion was a;; about in the first place.

Daulat flinched at the sight. He knew he could not surrender to his feelings but he was overwhelmed and there was no question about it. He looked around to see if there was someone around to stop him entering the room as it was restricted as per doctor’s instructions.Daulat sneaked inside Jerika’s room. She was asleep but still breathing and that counts everything at that moment. Daulat sat on the side of her bed and caresses her head and hair out of love and care. He was overwhelmed but his eyes were determined as he knew deep inside him Jerika will be fine and no matter how serious her condition is, she will make it and come back to life. She is lot more stubborn to be defeated by death so easily. He looked at her for few seconds and then he took her hand in his hand and pressed it light

When he realized that something serious was up, he called on emergency number to call out ambulance. By then more staff was there to help Jerika and everyone rushed to hospital and so did Antoine.Everyone was waiting outside the emergency room where Jerika was being treated. Everyone was evidently worried and there were low whispers. Antoine was standing away from the crowd to avoid their gazes which were accusing him for Jerika’s fallen health. Antoine was not sure why he was there. He just needed to know if everything was alright. He planned to leave once doctor declared Jerika to be okay but doctor was taking his time more than usual.

She realized that’s he has some back in her office. She went to the bathroom to get prepared for the day as she chose not to miss it.“You getting ready for office?” Isabel said to Jerika rubbing her sleepy eyes.“Yes… what are you doing getting up so early in the morning? Get some more sleep” Jerika said while fixing her hairs.“Aren’t you tired?” Isabel asked leaning on the door to take support. Isabel was exhausted and under after effect of alcohol consumption.“I am and mostly I am hammered from last night. Don’t know how will I get through the whole day?” Jerika said with a faint smile.“Why don’t take a day off?” Isabel suggested.“A lot is going on.
RUMMAGE Mending old relations
Jerika was dumbstruck when she saw some woman kissing Brian and she felt anger building in her veins when she saw no rejection from Brian. How could he just do something like that especially in front of her? Brian did take his time but he removed himself from the woman and it seemed like that woman was bit hurt when Brian pulled himself off.“You are back” woman said. Her eyes were watery which baffled Brian. “You look good”Brian smiled in irony “thanks for the complement but who are you?”“I am Sandra, your wife” woman said. Brian took a step back and stared at the woman who was claiming to be Brian’s wife. Jerika’s heart fell hearing those words. She too felt like shedding tears but she composed herself and decided to stay strong.“You are my wife!!!” Brian asked as if he was trying to confirm.“Of course I am. How else did I find you? Especially here” Sandra sai
RUMMAGE Trust issues
Antoine was standing and looking at Isabel and Daulat whereas Daulat was trying to pacify crying Isabel. Daulat was not comfortable in pacifying some women he barely know but he gathered that he cannot leave her alone and besides she was connected to Jerika who was still missing so she became important for Daulat but only with reason. Isabel could not believe that Antoine was being blamed for Jerika’s disappearance in the beginning but now when she heard with her own ears that Antoine took a shot on Jerika knowingly, she had nothing else to think but to question the basis of her trust on her most trusted people, on her own husband. All Isabel had were questions and chaos in mind but she was devastated even without knowing anything for sure. She was afraid that truth might be hurtful or some kind of deception and she was not sure if she could take it. It was an emotionally trying time for Isabel and she was not handling the situation too well. Daulat noticed Isabel and her stat

Barney was annoyed by that disturbance and he rudely asked, “What is it? And it better be something worthy?” The man on the door nervously looked around. He gets a bit intimidated looking at everyone staring back at him. “Hey, boy… Are you on vacation or sight-seeing? What do you want?” Barney said in annoyance. “There is a man outside. He claims to be an attorney for Mr. Antoine Mark” the man on the door answered. “It’s Dr. Dr. Antoine Mark” the lawyer made his way and barged inside the interrogation room followed by few other officers trying to stop him entering but all in vain. “And who are you?” Barney asked rudely. “I am his lawyer and here are the o
