Yeni Bir Kavga- A New Fight - Aylah's story

Chapter Nineteen

(Here's that OrhAy content you guys wanted, ahem ahem @BamsiAlpBasi and FYI in this chapter, Aylah is 9, the twins are 10 and Kayi is 11)

"Aylah."

Thunk

Orhan watched timidly as Aylah knocked arrow after arrow and shot them at the target, over and over again. "Aylah," He tried again, "G-Go away, Orhan." Orhan frowned, "Aylah, You're not getting rid of me that easily." 

Today hadn't been exactly great, to say the least. 

Earlier that day~

Orhan watched as Aylah stared at the blank piece of parchment. They were sitting in class at the small schoolhouse that was built in the tribe. Aylah stared at the words on the page as they were gibberish, making absolutely no sense. "Aylah," Orhan whispered, nudging his friend, "You okay?" 

Aylah jerked up, blinking rapidly, "I.. Um... d-don't-"  "Aylah," The teacher called out, calmly, "Have you finished yet?" Aylah looked back down at the empty page. 

The teacher sighed, and walked over, picking the piece of paper off the table. He frowned at the page, "Have you done nothing this whole time?"  Orhan looked across the room where Melike was, her eyes asked a similar question, 'Is she okay?'  Orhan shook his head slightly at his sister and turned back to Aylah. 

"Aylah, I asked you something," The teacher repeated, and Aylah pressed her fingers to her temple as if trying to force the words out. Orhan heard a couple of kids snicker, and he turned around, his dark eyes narrowing. 

Most everyone had told him, he was more like his mother, fierce, but soft-hearted. They knew him as the calmer twin.  But, no one messed with Orhan's friends, no one.

"She can't even talk." "I bet she's faking it, she can talk, she just wants attention."  Aylah didn't say anything but stared blankly at the table like nothing was making sense. But, before Orhan could even say anything, Aylah grabbed her paper, balled it out, and turned around, throwing it at those kids. 

"Aylah," The teacher warned, but Aylah simply got up and stormed away. The teacher sighed, shaking his head, and luckily the sound of adhaan was heard, signaling the end of their class. "See? I told you, she's faking it," The same boy said and Orhan heard his sister's voice. "Please, do us all a favor and go buy a brain." 

Melike crossed her arms, looking the taller boy dead in the eye. "What's wrong, Bey Kiz? Someone's cranky,"  "And someone needs to shut up." 

"Dumbasses," Melike grumbled as she turned around, "Hey! I heard that!" Melike scoffed, "Yeah? Well, you were supposed to!" 

Orhan grinned, bumping his fist with Melike, "I'll go find Aylah." Orhan told them and Kayi nodded as Orhan headed to where Aylah would probably be. 

"I s-said, g-go away," Aylah repeated, angrily releasing her arrow as her stutter came out once more. Orhan just stood there until Aylah turned around and pointed her next arrow at him. "Really, Aylah? You're going to shoot me of all people?" Orhan figured the best possible thing to do is turn this into something funny.

"You would think after everything, I would be the one person who you wouldn't shoot," Orhan knew he was being dramatic, but he was Osman Bey's son, of course, he had to be dramatic.

"I knew it would come this," He continued and Aylah just looked at him, "O-okay, okay, d-drama queen, I get it!" Orhan grinned as Aylah lowered her bow in exasperation "W-what is w-wrong with you, Orhan?" Orhan merely shrugged, "Insanity runs in the family." 

Aylah groaned and Orhan smiled, "So now that you're not, y'know pointing an arrow at my skull, what's up?" "I d-don't know, t-that's the problem," Aylah said frustrated, "N-nothing makes s-sense!" 

Orhan wasn't exactly sure what to do, but he knew that some days were worse for Aylah. And usually, she was fine a day or two later. "But, it's not that you don't understand the idea, right?" Orhan instead asked and Aylah nodded, "W-words, Orhan, T-the words m-make no s-sense." 

"Then, We'll help, later today, I'll get the other two and we'll help finish it," Orhan suggested and Aylah smiled. "So you'll give me your answers?" Orhan scoffed, " Uh no, I said I was going to help, nice try." 

"Let's go find Melike and Kayi before she possibly kills those kids," "Would that really be that bad, though?" Aylah asked meekly, and Orhan snorted, "I wish, but no." 

They didn't have to go look for Melike and Kayi, as they ran to the training field themselves. "Hey, Aylah, are you okay?" Kayi asked first and Aylah nodded, and Kayi smiled, "Good, just so you know, Melike's probably made that kid cry." 

"Hey, I wasn't that mean, I could've actually made him cry!" Melike protested, and Kayi raised an eyebrow as Orhan rolled his eyes, "Sure, Melike, sure." "And plus," Melike continued, "He deserved that, no one messes around with us."

Aylah smiled slightly, "A-Alright, Melike, relax." Melike grudgingly nodded and crossed her arms over her chest, "Fine, screw homework, for now, let's go do something fun." 

A/N: What's up, guys? Hopefully, you enjoyed this chapter of Orhan and Aylah.

This week's episode was still fricking sad, Boran looks so sad and depressed and I feel so bad for him. When Cerku asked him to play a song, he looked at him like, "Dude is this some sort of sick joke-"

Also last night I was at my friend's house and we were writing up a therapy session for Nikola. I will probably post it at the end of the next chapter. :D

Anyway, Salaam and Have a great day!
