449 The third drawer

"Are you serious?"

"Well it's first-hand information coming from Sebastian himself, so of course it has to be true."

Dr. Nelson thought for a while and then he said,

"Is he able to remember everything? Did he talk about any memory?"

"Why is everyone so obsessed with this memory? He has asked me to give him appropriate medicines to block out any further recall."

"You got to be kidding me !!!"

"No, I am not. Sebastian is furious and he wants me to go to some party tonight where Raymond is also going so that medicines can be given to him today itself."

"So you are going?"

"Of course !!! I have to go. My life is on the line for this one. I need to take the medicines, although don't worry I will not be giving them real medicine."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, there will be no harm if I can just give some paracetamol tablets. Sebastian will think that he has drugged his son well. You, on the other hand, ask Raymond to zip it up even if he remembers anything. Viola !!! Win-win for everyone."

"So basically you want to save yourself."

"Of course Dr. Nelson. I think you are forgetting it is Sebastian Walker that I am talking about."

"Ah, I have received my invitation as well."

Dr. Oshana spoke as she looked at the email notification from Sebastian's personal assistant.

Dr. Nelson hesitated for a moment but then given the scenarios, he didn't trust this woman. So he asked,

"Is there an option for bringing a Plus One?"

Dr. Oshana scrolled down on that invitation and said,

"Oh yeah !!! There is."

"Great then. I will pick you up and we can go together."

"What do you mean Dr. Nelson?"

"Which part of my sentence was incomprehensible for you? The, 'me coming with you' part or 'picking you up' part?"

Dr. Oshana fell all silent because she understood that, he just wanted to be with her to keep a tab on what medicine she was going to administer to Raymond. But to be very honest, she was dreading to go there alone and even though she knew that she was no friend of Dr. Nelson but he was far better than the wolf pit that she was going to enter."

"Fine then !!! You can pick me up."

"What is the dress code?"

"Formal, Tux for guys."

"Okay, then Dr. Oshana. I will see you in another hour."

Saying that Dr. Nelson disconnected the call just to make a new call to Raymond.

-----

Raymond had just reached his place and was comparing in between a couple of shirts to go with his tux when the screen of his phone turned on.

As it was a call from Dr. Nelson, he immediately picked it up.

"Hello, Dr. Nelson."

"Hello, Raymond."

"I was about to call you in a couple of minutes doctor, something miraculous has happened today."

"I know. You were able to recognize the face of your mom on your own."

"The news travels fast. doesn't it."

"Well, it's you, Raymond. It has to travel."

"But I bet no-one would have told you that the first memory that I had described to you this afternoon.."

"What about that?"

Dr. Nelson asked all impatiently.

"I was able to see more into it. That lady was none other than my mother."

"Are you sure Raymond?"

"I was never this sure before. I have these memories in bits and pieces and this man... Well, he is my uncle. I need to join these fragments and figure this puzzle out."

"Were you able to see what was in the drawer? Was the drawer there?"

"Surprisingly yes. Looked like my father had still kept that ugly looking piece of furniture safe. Why? I am not so sure. But I couldn't find anything in there."

"Did you check all the drawers?"

"Yes, I had checked the....."

Saying that Raymond suddenly went all silent.

"What happened Raymond? Did you remember something?"

"No no... "

"The last drawer. I still hadn't checked it. There was no knob on it. But now that I remember, there was definitely a third drawer."

"Then I guess that's what we are looking for."

"I guess so too. I need to sneak inside my father's house tonight, but I think the moment my presence will be revealed, there will be thousands of questions and ....."
