“Of all the Gin Joints in all the towns in the world, she walks into mine..”

People in old Istanbul’s cinema were currently watching Rick Blaine’s famous scene, remorse fully painted on his face after the return of his old flame.

There were couples cuddling in the seats; two in front and one behind the seats that were occupied by a couple who is not a couple.

Eda forced Serkan to go with her to see the movie that they already watched for hundreds of times.

Serkan never really liked old movies, especially romantic ones, but he loved seeing Eda enjoying it, so he really didn’t mind.

Since they were kids, it was always like that.

Eda’s eyes were glued on the screen, while Serkan’s eyes were on her face.

He never got tired of watching her face, her beautiful expressive eyes, her adorable dimples that appeared every time she smiled, and her contagious laugh.

Her face was engraved in his mind and he had come to terms with it a long time ago.

And just like in every cliché romantic movie,

Eda placed her hand in the popcorn box in the exact same time as Serkan did, which caused their fingers to touch.

Eda instantly froze and waited few seconds to pass and only then turned her head to meet his warm gaze.

The way he was looking at her in that moment…

Casablanca disappeared from her mind immediately.

Serkan slowly removed popcorn box between them and took her hand, placing his fingers between hers and closing it.

Eda looked at their connected hand and gulped nervously, realizing that maybe it was finally happening.

“Eda…”

Eda looked at him again and Serkan put his forehead on hers.

“I don’t love you the way best friends love each other. I love you the way I want to kiss you every single time I see you, the way I want to touch you and hug you and hold your hand all the time. You are always in my mind, in my heart, in my soul. Everything I own belong to you and I want you to belong to me. I am yours and I want you to be mine. Will you please be mine, Eda Yildiz?”

Serkan was looking at her with so much and Eda felt like she could finally breathe.

Her heart was dancing inside her chest and she couldn’t wait to be kissed by him.

Eda looked at his handsome features and smiled.

“I was always yours, Serkan Bolat.”

Serkan put his hand on her face and Eda closed her eyes, waiting nervously.

In one moment, she could sense his scent around her, but in another, it was gone.

Eda frowned and slowly opened her eyes, just to find herself alone in her room, darkness all around her.

She let a frustrated sigh as another failed dream appeared in her mind.

Eda was having these kind of dreams for a while now, and she felt sad after every one of them.

Serkan was in love with her only in her dreams, and that fact take a toll on her.

She was closer and closer to the moment where she will admit her feelings.

But, there is always a ‘but’.

She was scared of losing him. Even as her best friend.

She knew how it felt to lose him, and she doesn’t want to live without him again.
