Sanem
It is taking me a long time to regain some composure and come to terms with what is happening. The daily routine I had found back in Ankara, made up of work, lonely evenings by the lake or in the company of Mihriban, had helped me regain a semblance of serenity and confidence in a future that would have no room for love, but would have given me job satisfaction and serenity and affection from the friendships I was establishing.
Now I felt restless again, destabilised, it was as if my new world, my independent life here in Ankara, had been completely turned upside down by that man who had done nothing but involve me and upset me from the first moment I met him, and now I had no idea what to expect in the immediate future.I was going to carry out my work with seriousness and dedication, that's for sure, but at the same time it was not going to be easy having him in front of me every hour of the day. I only hoped that, once back home, I would find comfort in the peace of nature in which I like to immerse myself every evening to the point of losing track of time, which is the only thing that allows me to breathe normally again and regain my balance.
I am careful not to leave my office for fear that Can might have stayed at the agency for some reason, but I realise that I have great difficulty concentrating on work knowing that he might be not far away from me.
It's essential that everything is ready for the start of tomorrow's shoot and if I'm going to be there for the next few days, I need to rearrange everything in my diary and get Dilara to help me with it without neglecting any of our clients.A couple of hours later a definite knock on the door brings me back to reality, I look at the clock surprised that it's already lunchtime - Come in - I say, hoping not to find Can's face in front of me, which I would like to avoid seeing for today, since I will have him in front of me constantly for several days starting tomorrow.
Instead, a beautiful bouquet of flowers peeps out of my door, I stand up while a delivery boy makes his way towards me with the most beautiful bouquet of wild flowers I have ever seen: bells, forget-me-nots, cornflowers, daisies, dandelions, long spikes and blades of grass held by a simple paper wrapper tied with a lilac checked ribbon.The enchantment of simplicity, this is what you have always been for me, my wild flower that makes the world a wonderful place to live.
C.I can't help being excited by this special thought, he knows how to touch my heart, he has always known it deep down, I remember in an instant how he had decorated his garden for us for our first lunch together or the shed when he asked me to marry him.
