I was still in a shock. The conversation that took place between me and my boss was still going on through my head. I wasn't able to understand what to and how to react- whether to be happy for getting an opportunity to try yet another experiment, or to be worried for trying out something very risky....It was indeed a risky idea.Thinking that It might cause the end of the world if something goes wrong; I used to get frustrated many a times . In the same thought,still confused to decide whether it was okay to do so Or not ,Suddenly, Thomas came behind me and as if trying to comfort me ,he kept his hand on my shoulder. My thoughts were stumbled ....to know whose hand it was ,I looked around and found Thomas behind me. He was extremely happy and excited about the next project. He hugged me and making me turn towards him, he screamed,"Yippeeeeee!!!! Once again,we're gonna work together and create yet another historical thing people would always remember of...". Before he could continue with his endless beautiful imaginations (as he felt),grabbing his hand,I took him into the cabin of my boss and with full of frustation I shouted, "Are you both aware of what you are asking me to help you out with?! "." What are you trynna highlight,Ron!! Speak directly ....
.," Boss said...
"You both are well aware of what I wanna say . It's too risky to start with this project . Just imagine...even if we are successful at it, the thing doesn't end here.....ever thought...What if the chemical gets leaked from our lab?? This would create numerous problem for the Whole human breed.... this world will get destroyed in just a short span of few minutes.....what are we going to do then?! . Are you understanding what I am trying to say!!!!!" I was so frustrated that I didn't even think that I was speaking this all, in a high voice in front of my boss. Thomas replied, " Ron , I think You are just thinking too much..... How will the chemical get leaked from our lab!! We are not careless to this extent.....we know our responsibilities and we are gonna take care of this too....." I interrupted and tried to keep my opinion, " I know you have got this idea from movies...but, we can't put the lives of people in danger ... movies are just for entertainment....if you are trynna implement it in real life, then its just your craziness...thats it" Thomas was still stubborn on his decision, as if we were debating on an issue, he kept forward his next point, " See...,I assure you.... we would take all the precautions so that no such incidence takes place... " Thomas explained it all to boss too....
"Nope, Whatever you say,I am not gonna support this and do a mistake of being your partner for this project." I spoke angrily and left the cabin . I was so frustrated after all this so I thought of sitting in a garden instead of going home in order to normalise my blood pressure that was at his extreme possible level already. After spending a bit time under the shadow of a tree,I walked towards my home. That night when I had my dinner, My mind started thinking about the same thing that I was trynna forget- that project for sure...
" Is it really possible to make that chemical (which can turn humans into zombies)?? What if we create it?? Will I get fame?? " I was murmuring to myself...That single moment, n number of questions related to that project were creating mess in my mind. In this same thought I went onto my bed, I didn't even notice when I fell asleep....
The next morning when I woke up, I seemed quite fresh .... The greed of getting popularity made me feel that it was nothing wrong to so following every single precaution..." I am still suffering due to my own greed.Someone has said so true - greed is not good....
I dialed Thomas' cell no. And spoke out when he picked up my call, " Hey buddy, good morning." Thomas replied, " It's not at all a good morning. It's first time when we'll be not working together on a project." I continued, "You're wrong my friend, we'll be working together this time too!! I have changed my mind and I agree with you....if we'll take all precautions, nothing will go wrong." Thomas was surprised ( that was obvious - the guy who argued a lot before a day was now in his favour).. he screamed out of excitement, "What-what did ya say just now??You will be working on this project with me." "Yeahh!!!" I answered back, " Yes, you heard it correct. I will be working on this project with you. So, let's meet at the lab, and don't tell boss about this, I wanna tell this good news to him myself ." Thomas agreed , " Okay!! Meet in office and don't worry I'll not let boss know about this. Bbyee..."and the line got disconnected....
After ending the call I got ready and went to my office to surprise my boss. When I entered in the cabin of my boss, my boss yelled on me, "Ron I'm asking you for the last time, Or I will appoint someone else for this project." I guess he was so angry because of the scene I had created yesterday..... So, I answered quikly, " No-no-no, boss. I am here to tell you that, I'll be taking part in this project with Thomas." " Y-yes I knew you will never disappoint me. SO, from tomorrow we will start working on our project." Boss said in excitement.
The next day when I went to office Thomas was already waiting for me there to start up. We both started working on that project without spending our time on unnecessary discussions....
