My manager and I

Chapter eleven

The next morning she wakes up in his bed, alone. Breakfast is already waiting for her on a tray over the table across the room along with a note.

'I couldn't bear to wake you up. I'll inform them you won't show up today. Eat before you leave, B.' she smiles and she pours coffee in a mug. For the weirdest reason she's not freaked out about last night. On the contrary she's so relaxed.

When it's time to leave his room she peeks on the both sides of the corridor and when she is sure she is alone she gets out. And now time for the hard part.

"Feris?" She says on the phone.

"You did it, didn't you?" Feris says on the other end of the line and when Dicle doesn't answer she just sighs.

"I knew it!" She exclaims. "You didn't call me and that was the exact reason I told you to do so. Ahhh Dicle..." she says and Dicle can imagine how her face dropped.

"I... Can we meet? I really need to see you alone." Dicle says and starts looking for clothes in her closet.

"Meet me in ten minutes in the coffee shop under the castle. I'll be there soon." Feris says and closes the phone.

When Dicle arrives a fresh cup of espresso awaits her along with a grumpy Feris.

"I can explain." Dicle says and for the next ten minutes she talks nonstop, justifying what happened last night.

"So you want to tell me that the only way out of this is through." She says way calmer now.

"As your favorite Oscar Wilde said 'The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.'" Dicle answers and smiles sneakily.

"Was at least the temptation worth it? Cause if not..."

"Oh Feris...." She says and they both laugh. 

They go shopping after that and she talks with Meral via facetime when Feris leaves. She decides not to tell her best friend what happened between Baris and her. Besides she's coming to Bodrum really soon. Since she's skipping set today she calls Aydin to check how things are going only to find him with some locals drinking beers and singing.

"And here I thought you are here to keep an eye on your brother when I can't." She says.

"Dicle!!! I just saw your call and I was about to call you back... soon." He says obviously tipsy. She smiles and grabs a chair to sit next to him.

"This is Dicle. Dicle these are some really wise locals that can help you with your problem." He tells her and he winks at her.

"My problem?" she asks genuinely confused.

"Oh yes. You may have solved that last night." He says enthusiastically. "He didn't tell me anything but he was too happy this morning so I guessed..." He whispers at her and she blushes.
