The Undying Love

Stuck together

At morning...

The tribe get back to work as per Ertugrul's order. Hayme left for Hanli Pazar early in the morning. Ertugrul and Halime had their breakfast in their own tent. Breakfast preparations were done by Halime, after getting ready Ertugrul took his place for breakfast. They started the breakfast followed by the lunch.

Though the marque was silent, it was a comfortable one. Ertugrul and Halime had everything sort out between them having satisfaction and love again in hearts leaving no doubt. Something crossed Halime's mind, and she secretly gave Ertugrul a glance with naughty smile.

"Ertugrul..." She called him hiding her smile cleverly. Ertugrul hummed having morsel in his mouth.

"I wanted to ask you something!" Halime sounded as innocent as she can.

"Yes love, ask." He said out once the food was finished in his mouth.

"Umm..." She didn't looked at him, and acted to clear her throat. "Like... Like I went away because of my brother, what would you have done if I would've left... left you... for another man?" With some stammerings she finally completed the sentence.

Ertugrul's hand with spoon of food just stopped near his mouth, and his widened eyes just raised to look at Halime. As if his breath stuck. He didn't even blinked looking at her, he never expected to heard anything like that for his wife. Ertugrul's reaction made Halime hard to control her smile.

"No... you are getting me.. wrong. Like, someone just ask me this Ertugrul, so I curious for your answer." She was having hard time to control her smile, she unsuccessfully show her expressions, still Ertugrul was so shocked to understand it.

"Who? Who asked you? And why? What did you told?? And who aske you first, tell me Halime." Putting his spoon down, Ertugrul desperately asked. Just thousands of negative thoughts clouded Ertugrul's mind.

Halime cleverly hide her mischievousness. Her pregnancy mood swings were demanding new things, the boring silence was unacceptable to her. She covered her face with more innocence, while she was about to add spice in the situation.

Halime furrowed her brows together to show herself as she was thinking. "Umm.. yes, Mehmet Bey. He asked me this."

She averted her eyes towards Ertugrul who just got more shocked. While she enjoyed the situation to the fullest. Ertugrul immediately pushed the breakfast table down surprising Halime. He come closer to her and grabbed her elbows.

"Why? Why did he told you this Halime. What did you told him? Tell me Halime!!!" His situation was growing more curious.

"I... I simply told him I will never leave my husband." Halime pretended to shrug simply.

"And what else? What else did he asked you? Did he told you something else too Halime?" Ertugrul bombarded the questions as soon she completed.

"No... But what happened to you Ertugrul? I.. I just asked you a question." Ertugrul looked at Halime, but she had a small hidden smile. It suddenly triggered him. She was playing with him. Her face had example of all devilry, though she tried to hide it. Ertugrul left her elbow.

Halime giggled out finally. She kept giggling, while Ertugrul turned his head away. He had to deal with such little plays often, but this time he just failed. He turned his head towards Halime who was now laughing.

"Oh Halime!" He silently whispered. More than getting jealous, he scared for a minute. His fear and insecurities just flashed infront of his eyes for a minute, but he didn't wanted to ruin his wife's good mood. So Ertugrul too smiled out.
