Serkan and Eda had just come back home from their office. They were working as partners and nothing or nobody could break their professional bond. Artlife was at its all time high success with both the partners and also Ferit working hard day and night. They had bagged a huge number of projects. All the employees were happy with Eda's extremely sweet and caring behaviour and they were also liking that Serkan no more was a strict boss, he scolded less. The company and holding were in perfect harmony and employees were working enthusiastically supporting their bosses. However, such long working hours were taking a toll on everyone.
Even Eda and Serkan came home exhausted on most days. Yes Eda had agreed to move in with Serkan when he had asked almost a month after his memory came back and when he was sure Eda was partially healed from the trauma. Anyways after his memory came back, they were inseparable. Spending almost 24 hours with each other, 7 days a week. If they didn't saw each other for more than 2-3 hours, they would feel anxious. So moving in was the right decision for both of them to give them peace. So it had almost been 3 months now that they had moved in together.
They had bought a new apartment to move into since his old apartment had a lot of memories that they didn't want to relive- Balca, Selin, his memory loss. They had decided that they would shift to the doctor's house (that Serkan had bought when he first went with Eda to that place) when they get married and plan their family. For now they were content with the small apartment that was on the outskirts of the city and facing the sea. It was so cosy with all of Eda's colorful belongings and Serkan's interior design. Classy, compact and colourful!
So they came home and had takeaway dinner from their favourite restaurant with them. They didn't feel like cooking after a long tiring day. So Serkan set the table while Eda quickly put some food in Sirius's bowl. They sat down to eat. And anyone who knew them would definitely know that every simple thing could be romantic for them, they just had to be together while doing it and tadaa, it's full of love and romance.
They were talking about their day when Serkan thought in his mind to finally talk about the one thing that he had been pushing ahead for a few weeks now. This had to be done before he proposes Eda or before their wedding. Their wedding was going to happen, it was inevitable, they both knew. But what Eda didn't know was that Serkan had made a promise to himself that he had to complete before their marriage. Not to get him wrong, he really wanted to marry her at the earliest, but he could definitely wait to complete one of Eda's dream.
So their dinner was almost over and they were just finishing the last piece of their sandwiches.
Serkan mustered up the courage to speak.
"Eda"
"Hmm"
"I wanted to talk to you about something important" He said in a serious tone and Eda stopped eating. She was getting worried.
"Serkan, babe, is everything alright?"
"Actually Eda, I wanted to talk about this for a long time but I felt we should take some time."
Eda was getting more anxious by the minute. She was no more smiling. Serkan understood that what he is going to speak now will have an adverse reaction from Eda most probably.
He took her hand and softly pulled her with him to the couch.
"Come here, let's sit"
He sat down and Eda sat down by his side but to Eda's surprise, he pulled her onto his lap. She was completely on his lap now and she rested her hands on his chest.
"Serkan you are scaring me, speak please."
"Baby, promise me that you will first listen to me completely and then react. Please hear me out once" Serkan spoke while holding her hands in his.
"Okay Askim, I will."
To say Eda was scared would be an understatement. She was hell scared now.
"Eda, baby, I was thinking that... that since now everything is alright, we are happy, and Artlife has reached new heights, maybe you can complete your studies now, I mean.. last semester that is left."
Eda let out a breath she didn't even know she was holding. She had expected something worse, but this was not what she expected. Obviously she wanted to complete her studies and she had been pondering about it for a long time.
"Huh, Serkan, thank god, I thought it was something serious, actually I also wanted to talk about this, because I too want to complete my studies at the earliest."
Serkan was relieved that they were on the same page but the difficult part of the conversation was yet to come.
So he started again, "Eda, love listen to what I have to say. I was thinking that you should live upto your dream. I mean you.. as in.. you always wanted to complete your last semester in Italy. So, I was thinking that maybe you can complete it from Italy."
Eda was now surprised because in her mind, she was sure that she will complete it from Istanbul itself so that they would not have to live in different countries and be in long distance relationship. They had been through a lot and she didn't want to leave Serkan for even a day.
Eda looked at Serkan who was expecting an answer and her eyes grew teary. Her mind started over exaggerating the situation. It wasn't her fault because just the thought of being away from Serkan was feeling like a nightmare. So, yes her brain had started overthinking.
Serkan felt bad seeing her eyes teary. He pulled her for a hug and kept hugging her for a few minutes only to realise that his shirt was getting wet that meant Eda was now freely crying.
"Baby, why are you crying? Hey listen to me, I am saying this because now, we both are going to handle Artlife. And the projects are increasing day by day, I think it's necessary that you complete your course and baby listen, Italy isn't far away, and plus it is your dream my love. I want to help you achieve your dream."
Eda misunderstood him completely. And now she was getting angry. She pulled away from him but was still sitting on his lap.
"Serkan, you mean to say I am not worthy of your company? I do not deserve to do projects because I do not have a degree?"
Serkan was surprised at this, he didn't understand where this came from in Eda's mind.
"No, hayir.. No baby, this is not what I meant. Eda, please listen to me."
"Serkan, I know you meant this only. From the start, when I came to company initially, since then, everybody taunted me for working without completing my degree because everybody knew Serkan Bolat doesn't employ a person who is not even a graduate. Why doesn't anyone see my talent Serkan? Why do everyone think that I am in Artlife because I am your girlfriend? Serkan, I don't want to go to Italy. No, there are so many bad memories of us in Italy. I can't go there when everyday I will be reminded that your plane crashed there"
She was almost crying now. Serkan understood that it was her insecurity that was taking the best off her. He didn't mean this to happen.
"Eda, baby, my love, listen to me please. You are misunderstanding me. Okay, let's leave Italy. Maybe you can go to a college in London. Baby, listen to—"
"Ohh I am misunderstanding you? Does that mean there is another reason? Ohh yes, you want me to go to Italy or London or anywhere else because you want a break from me? You feel suffocated with me? You don't feel that I am worthy of your love anymore?"
Eda was getting angry again and by the last part she was already screaming.
Ohh great, now Eda is doubting my love for her.
Serkan didn't mean to get angry but he was getting now because Eda wasn't even listening to herself. She was just going on and on speaking stuff that didn't make sense.
So he just raise his voice a little which he immediately regretted.
"EDA, LISTEN TO ME FIRST BABY. WHY DON'T YOU EVER HEAR WHAT I HAVE TO SAY. LET ME COMPLETE"
Eda flinched a little and pulled back a little.
"See, now you are shouting at me. You don't love me anymore."
"Eda, I am sorry, but atleast listen to—"
"I don't want to talk to you Serkan."
With this, she pulled away from Serkan's lap and rushed to their room. Serkan quickly went behind her but she ran and locked the door on his face. He was regretting shouting at her. He had thought that there was going to be an argument about it but he didn't even think that it would get this much big.
He knocked on the door lightly.
"Eda, baby, listen please. Open the door. Please Eda. We can talk calmly about it. You know I love you. I love you so much Eda, I am not pushing you away."
"Serkan, go away, I don't want to talk to you."
"Eda, please, okay we will not talk about it, just open the door please"
"No Serkan, leave me alone."
"Eda I am going to be outside until you open it. Just open please baby."
Eda didn't reply. She felt exhausted and she cried herself to sleep listening to Serkan's soft pleads to open the door. Serkan after almost an hour, went to sleep on couch. He was going to settle this argument first thing in the morning.
Almost at midnight, Eda woke up with a startle. She looked on the other side of bed and didn't see Serkan. She looked towards the door and saw it locked from inside and then remembered their fight. She instantly regretted it. She realised that Serkan was just thinking about her happiness and her dreams. She felt bad for overreacting so much and locking him out of the room.
Wow Eda, great! He was just wanting to help you achieve your dream and you have made him doubt his love for you. She thought in her mind.
