" Murad, what's the suppose of that war with Russia now? Why do you go there?" I asked him as we were sitting on his terrace looking at the sky night in Istanbul.

" They declared war to us. I have nothing but to go into war." Murad said and drank a sip of wine that was in his cup, and it annoyed me a lot.

" Will you stop drinking wine? That's why you don't feel good, because you drink it too much." I said to him trying to take the cup from his hand, but he didn't allow me.

" I drink it because it makes me forget about all the pain." Murad said and continued to drink the wine.

" What kind of pain?" I asked him worriedly.

" Every morning my stomach hurts me a lot, so much that I can barely walk alone without a walking stick. Then I drink my medicine which doesn't work enough to me, but when I drink wine all my pain stops." Murad said and turned to look at my eyes.

" Why haven't you tell me this before? I would do whatever is important to find best doctors to help you." I said to him sadly as I didn't even know about it.

" I didn't want to make you sad, my love. I feel even worser when I look at you being sad. I will be fine until I look at you smile at me and hug me. That's where I feel the safest next to you." Murad said and kissed my cheeks.

" I don't want anything bad to happen to you, Murad. We will find best doctors which will help you to get better." I said to him sadly.

" They don't think that I will get better. They can only keep it at this level of pain. It can't decrease, it can only increase." Murad said to me and took me closer into a hug.

" You prohibited people from drinking alcohol and now you are the one who is doing it. It maybe helps you for moments to forget about the pain, but it is only making worser to your body." I said as I was really worried for my husband. I couldn’t lose him now.

Murad didn't answer a word to me, he just remained silent and kept playing with my curly hair for a long time.

" Give me that wine." I said to him and putted my hand in front of him.

" No, Mihrişah. Don't." Murad said to me as he didn't want to give it to me.

" If you love me Murad you will stop to drink this wine." I said to him and still had my hand in front of him.

He looked at me and looked at the wine then. It took him few minutes, and then he passed me his cup of wine. I got up and threw it.

" I don't want to see you drinking it ever again. If you want to prohibit something to people, why do you do it then Murad? If someone besides me knows about this, and this goes to the people, they will think what kind of ruler they have." I said to him as I didn't want more troubles in Empire.

Murad stood up and walked towards me. He putted his hands on my cheeks and looked me deeply inside my eyes.

" I never thought I would meet a woman who would I love this much as I love you. I never knew this kind of love even exists, when I would give whatever I need in this world just to make my loved one happy." Murad said and kissed my forehead.
