Kosem sultan: Death for the dynasty

hope for tomorrow Part 8

Rosa was standing in the main room of the house with her husband and children. This was the happiest thing she ever wanted, a good family.
After losing her mother and father so young, she was always proud of how she rise her kids. But now with her beloved pass coming back to haunt them she had to think about their future. Rosa did not want her or her family to go back to Palace, or to face the wrath of the sultan or Kosem.

Ibrahim was not looking at his wife, but at the 4 little children they had together. Gevherhan was on the floor playing with Mehmed while osman was sleeping next to raziye.

Oh why why did my sister have to come in and ruin my new peaceful life. ibraham thought to himself he thought the traumas of his past could no longer hurt him but he was wrong. The pain from his childhood seemed to engulf him like an ocean but when his wife touched his shoulder he knew he was saved.

"Do you really not even want to try talking to your sister. You said that after Bayazid she was the one you missed the most" Rosa said with confidence. She didn't want to hurt her husband but she also wanted him to make the right choice. She knows what it is to have family hurt you But also just recently she learned the importance of finding peace with them.

"You know when she wasn't with me it was almost like I could just miss her for who she was, you know my sister the one the one who is always with me and protects me. But seeing her in real life reminded me that she is not dead. that the things she did......... did really happen." ibraham starts to choke on his words tears are starting to well up in his eyes.

" Now it's not even just me it's you and our children and the life that we have here. I don't want to endanger it or give it up not for her or for anyone else."

Rosa smiles slightly, but Ibrahim can see she has her mind is going back to events earlier that year. " I know we helped Sultan Gulbar to safety, but she did not seek us out and we only helped her out of kindness and you know family relations." Rosa thinks back to the Sultana Gulbar and how different she is to Ibrahim's sister. Gulbuar seemed thoughtful and thankful To accidentally find ibraham and didn't force him to go back.Atike Seems to only care about her own goals; she doesn't even want to consider other people. Gulbar even liked their children.

But Rosa could not completely forgive gulbar. Although she has truly forgiven her in her heart and her soul she can never truly forget some things in her past, their past.they still make her sad. But now on to the future how to deal with the new sultana in town.

"Then let's not engender ourselves or our children, but is talking to Atike really going to put anyone in danger?"

"What if my mother or brother has spies to follow akiti for her own safety, and they have seen me and recognized me and the com for us, oh dear."

"Don't worry father I will protect you," Mehmed said, holding up a little spoon as a makeshift sword.

All the worries immediately vanished from Ibrahim's face as he smiled at his young son. Mehmed reminded him so much of Murad and bayazid when they were younger. Abraham knew he wouldn't let his son turn out like his brothers did though. As he thinks about his brother the thought dons on his head.

"You know if it had been bayazid that rode up on a horse to our house, I probably would have talked to him." ibraham said with a small smile on his face

Rosa chimes in before he can say something else " And forgive me my love but if bayazid we're here right now would he want you to talk to your sister?" A smile appears on both of their faces

"I know you're right Rossa you know you're right, I can't stay like this forever I shouldn't it's not a good example to sat to my children. Tomorrow I'll track down my sister."

"Can I come too I want to see the lady again" gevherhan said

" Gevherhan, Do you still want to meet her?" Ibrahim said a little surprised if he had been rude to her after all.

" You're going to give her a second chance father, so I will also give her another chance" Gerherhan said. Even at 8 years old she seemed mature enough to handle complicated situations.

"Alright it's settled then now everybody let's get ready to make dinner" Rosa declared getting ready to take the two little ones to bed as everyone else prepared to eat.

"I hope tomorrow turns out better than today did" ibraham said before going off the kitchen
