Chapter 9: Rachel's husband?

"I wanted to see you"Nicolas says with a smile,"aww how lovely,come in"Rachel says, Nicolas nods but pauses for a sec looking down at Oliver,"come in"Oliver says walking away.

Rachel chuckles,"he doesn't like anyone"Rachel says as Nicolas nods entering inside the house.

Nicolas takes a seat looking round the house,"what a nice house love the decor,the use of grey and White,it gives it a homey feeling" Nicolas complements the apartment.

"Thank you"Rachel says heading up the short stairs, Oliver shows up with a glass of milk placing it on the side table,"drin-","ni thank you,I don't know what you've put in it, it's probably poisoned,you obviously hate my guts"Nicolas says straightforwardly.

Oliver rolls his eyes at Nicolas words,"let me speak first stupid,drink the milk and get the hell outta my house you white haired monkey"Oliver says walking away not sparing Nicolas a glance.

Nicolas was dumbfounded at Oliver's words,"small boy but big mouth and sharp tounge"Nicolas sighs as he pulls out his phone searching,'is it illegal to kill a sinister kid planning you untimely de-' ,"so why aren't you at work"Rachel voice sounds stopping Nicolas search.

Nicolas keeps his phone getting up,"ill like to ask the same thing,why did you take leave?"Nicolas askes."there isn't much going on at the research headquarters,only preparations for the launch program to X 23 Vita so why should I bother?" Rachel says sitting on one of the chairs at the dining area.

"since we're on the topic of X 23 Vita I have something I wanna talk about with you about"Nicolas says Taking a deep breath,"what is it,is it important,any new updates?" Rachel askes eagerly.

"Actually I made a little discovery and if my theory is right our trip to X 23 Vita might be held"Nicolas says scratching his head nervously, "Discovery?, what discovery, how does it affect the operation for colonization?" Rachel askes confused.

"i saw a foreign object when looking at the photographs of the planet the probes took"Nicolas confesses, "foreign object?"Rachel says perplexed "what object?"Rachel askes.

"i don't really know what it is,I an on enhancing the image when I go to HPLRC tommorow"Nicolas explains,"can I see the photos?"Rachel askes with streached palms, Nicolas grabs the documents handing it to her, Rachel scans the documents with knot brows.

"i see...,but....what is a foreign object doing in a disolated planet like X 23 Vita,it's only populated with the vegetation we saw in the photographs what that doing there?"Rachel says confused.

"There was no launch operations carried out to the planets so no marterial could be left there,am confused"Nicolas says weirded out,Rachel sighs,"so what are you proposing Nicky, that the planet holds potential life cuz of the unidentified object seen in a mere photograph?" Rachel says sarcatically.

"why are you making sarcastic remarks,the mission could be in Jeoprady,am not willing to risk the life of innocent spacers out carelessness, no am not"Nicolas says firmly.

"stop with your paranoia Nicolas,we can't be a hundred percent sure,no mission guarantees total safety,we going to a planet unexplored what do you expect,a few probes can't tell us everything"Rachel tries to explains to him.

"Its not paranoia Rachel am just being careful and concious,risk is inevitable everything has disadvantages but I can't accept total lost,this it bullshit I ain't Willing to test fate or drain my luck thanks but no thanks Rachel" Nicolas says sitting down on one of the dining chairs.

"Nicolas I understand,we have to be careful that's important and I know very much of the potential dangers of this mission,but we can't cancel it only for one object that was spotted on the photographs", Rachel pauses a bit.

"HPLRC is the biggest and most advanced research headquarters in all the five district ,our technology have gotten a mass increased and still maximizing so what's with the fear,infact how about I tell you the story of the discovery of mass345ava"Rachel says getting up.

"oh yeah i know that planet is called canceria67tiva now right?,I read that the first two trials to get to the planet for research and colonization was disastrous on the first two trials,then successful on the third,and there was even a female research on board,that was you right?"Nicolas says enthusiastically.

"yeah I was among the few female researchers ever allowed on mission to colonization,the research was usually done in our planet, marterial sourced from the planet are brought to us and not us taking part in getting it,they claim is two risky"Rachel explains walking behind Nicolas and massaging his shoulder soothingly.

Oliver walks down the stairs making her pause her doings for a sec ,he tilts his head staring at them,"is okay I don't give a damn if you guys do anything immoral, is not something I haven't seen before,just when you're done find your way out the door thank you"Oliver says walking back up the stairs.

"he gets that sharp tounge from his father"Rachel chuckles massaging Nicolas shoulders but pauses,she tilts her head to look at Nicolas i hope I didn't offend you or hurt you somehow?"Rachel askes.

"No,not at all,if you don't mind can I ask where his father is?"Nicolas askes, Rachel demeanour wavers for a sec,"did he abandon you and Oliver?"Nicolas askes noticing her mood.

"No,not at all"Rachel says before taking a deep breath,"i want to tell you about it actually"Rachel adds,nicolas nods,"so what happened?"he askes curious,"he was among the selective few sent to colonize canceria67tiva,he went on the second mission, going to far away light years planets requires magnetic push from the machines attached to the side of the ship ,it creates a force pushing it through thin line of space to shorten the period it takes,the space ship turned into a ball of fire from one wrong calculation" Rachel says with a sigh.

"oh"Nicola s says shocked,"sheesh that must have hurt alot"Nicolas says,"yeah but it's fine,the incident helped us prepare the next ship with the requirements and got a safe travel, everything has risk, imagined if we had Allowed our fear get the better of us we wouldn't have found the purple vegetation used for curing so many diseases like now, there's a 60% chance of there being life there okay"Rachel coaxes him.

"you sound alot like my friend"Nicolas says with a chuckle, "really I would love to meet him/her one-day"Rachel says with a smile still massaging his shoulder, "is a she"Nicolas says as Rachel nods,"then I would love to meet her"Rachel says, "you would be surprised"Nicolas chuckles.
