Chapter 6

A Trip Outside

Like rolling stones, in a landslide and destroying everything that comes in between, so was Mirca’s life.

Her life had been destroyed on the day of her wedding rolling downwards, destroying her gradually each day; taking first Cole, then his parent’s even Darwin in its influence and today was the worst.

Tall, intimidating and French bearded Inspector Williams today claims the accident as a preplanned murder with all the evidences proving the facts that the car had been manipulated.

The box of airbag of the driver’s seat was sealed with an adhesive and therefore it did not open at the right time. The brakes were stopped with a piece of extended mat of the car so that the brake pedal couldn’t be pressed and the speedo meter was also tampered with.

The detectives also doubt the scent of someone other than Mirca, Cole and the decorator from the car.

The perfume is expensive and quite a strong one confirming the fact that the person had stayed in the car for more than 20 minutes.

Mirca being safe, sound and completely unharmed does come under their surveillance of suspects and their pact of moral sympathy had long been over when Cole’s parents did not give their word on her innocence.

Darwin had always been on Mirca’s supportive side and her parents worried too much being their favorite daughter who was always a coolant to their eyes. They did hire an attorney for her who’d been successful enough to claim all the charges on her as void.

Mirca however could not travel out of the city before the case was dealt with and the convicted behind the bars.

Neither does she plan to nor has she left the boundary of her house since the day of the accident but Darwin has been successful to convince her to rejoin her job as a designer in the same cosmetic company that she’d agree on the terms that she’d supply her designs by mails since she was leaving the country after her wedding.

Always a big admirer of her work, the head of the company readily agreed and decided to pay her on commissions. Mirca immediately agreed as far as her designs were concerned, she was confident and Cole being rich enough, money earning was only a formality.

But now she desperately needs the job to keep her mind off.

So she worked on the design of the bottle of the latest nail enamel that looked like a snake’s skin print once applied, her designing job assigned by the company as this was the forthcoming they were about to launch a week after their wedding.

Like every other day while she is forgetting everything around as she passionately designs a new product she puts herself to work and when she is done she is shocked to see what she’d design.

Holy cow she drawn a snake around the neck of the bottle who is wrapped on the tubular lid of the enamel and what!!!!! The face resembles to the one she saw in the car that drove her and Cole to the resort and then in her dreams who tried to kidnap her.

The snake wrapped the lid looked exactly like the snake wrapped Cole strangling him to death and the face, it was same with dense, thick short hair, eyes red like fire and that uncanny smile on his face.

She could feel her hands getting cold and her body stiffening with the design that lay in front of her.

Damn it was her creation! Or it was worst of her imaginations/memories.

She threw the laptop away from her. She stared at it for minutes together wondering whether it was her imagination that made her draw it or it was the dream that was associated with most dreaded day of her life that she cannot forget.
