Bora

She looked up at me with those innocent green eyes. "You left it in my car last time, and I didn't know your name, or I would have brought it to you. But I knew I would meet you again. Now we're here and I'm putting the scarf around yo..." She puts her finger over my lips and says: "Shhhh, you don't have to explain it, I know it. Thank you." I think I am dead. Can someone check my pulse because I think it stopped. I am shocked. What the heck is happening? I took her hand from my mouth. Now her hand was in my hand and I did what I had to do; I interlocked our fingers. And it felt so good. Her little hand in my hands. May Jesus help me. I have a very strange feeling. A feeling that I wasn't known before. Everything inside me is burning and I can't find any words when I am near her. I can't think straight. Stop it Bora, focus now. "Alright let's go into the car before you could get a cold." Again those memories of the other day at the sea. Why is everything repeating itself? It feels strange but at the same time good. I open the passenger seat door to her. "Thank you", she says.

We arrive at the restaurant, and I open the door to her. "Here we go güzellim", I say to her (the last word in Turkish which means my dear). I hold out my hand to her and she grabbed it and again we interlocked our fingers.

I pulled the chair back for her, she sat on it and look back to me, nodding as a thank you. 

Ada

When he interlocked our fingers, I felt something. This thing between our touches felt so familiar and natural. But I didn't give much patience.

During the whole drive we didn't spoke much I just enjoyed the view and was thinking about that scarf thing. It was a very good move, but I shouldn't give in so easily. It is just a thank you dinner I tried to convince myself with this. "Who are you kidding Ada?", a voice in my head said to me. "Shut up", I said. "Ada are you okay?", Bora asked me? God, why am I so embarrassing? "Nothing I just remembered something."

In the restaurant he pulled the chair for me and then he sat on the opposite. We ordered something to eat.

"And what would you like to drink?", the waiter asked. "A bottle of red wine would be good. Ada is it okay for you?" "Actually, I am not a friend with it. It has not a good effect on me. Can I order something else?" "Yes, sure no problem. Then I will take the same as her", he said.

We ordered our drinks and began to chat. "You said that you are a businessman but you didn't say what you do." "Um yeah. I own a company. We do advertising stuff. We get the new collection of a brand and then we put some ideas together for the adds and start to do the adds. It is pretty cool. Our adds are well known all over the world. We do the adds for Gucci and Prada. I also own a lot of restaurants. I was very surprised that you didn't knew me." "Oha. Gucci and Prada? What is the name of your company? Maybe I heard of it." "Out of all the things you just heard Gucci and Prada?", he chuckles. I look embarrassed away. "La Lugas", he suddenly says. "What? No way!", I yell out of surprise, and everyone turned their gaze to me. Geez what a creep I am. "La Lugas? This big thing is yours?" "Yes", he says with a confused look. "How old are you that such a huge company belongs to you?" "I am 28." He is the same age as me. How can he own such a company and be well known? I on the other hand what am I doing? Why have I such a life? I am also 28 and I work in a restaurant. 

"On what subject did you graduate with?", he asked me. "Four years ago, I got the master on art." "Wow. This is interesting and very special. No offense but can I ask you a question?" "Yes." "Why do you then work in a restaurant?" "Yeah, after I graduated something got in between with the family and I had to work for the living so here I am." "Do you want to do something with art?" "It would be nice, but it is very hard to find something." "I have something on my mind." "Shoot out." "You could work with me in La Lugas. I am sure we do need an artist with another look on the things." God is this really happening? What? Should I say yes? I will work for Gucci and Prada. God Ada, stop it. "I... I... speechless. Okay sorry I... I lost my words." "It's okay you can think over it. If you decide to work for me you can just come to the company and ask for me or wait. Here is my number. You can call or write me if you want the job. You can also call me for other things", he said while winking at me. "Thanks."

"Where do you come from Ada?", he asks suddenly. Until that day I didn't spoke to anyone about my life. Selin is the only one who knows everything about me. It is not easy for me to open and tell my story to anyone. I got through a very hard heartbreak and other things too, and I am trying my best to don't show this side to anyone. What should I tell him? "I...", I stopped and looked down to my plate and begun to play with my food. He didn't say anything. "I...", I tried again but I couldn't. "It's okay. You don't have to answer. Just answer it when you feel ready. Now what do you want to ask me?" How can he be so understanding?

"Alright then I ask the question you asked me before. Where do you come from?" "I...", he stopped. He looks down and stares at his plate just like me. Obviously, he doesn't want to speak about his origin. He should have known it, when he asks someone about where they come from it is obvious that they will ask the same question. When he doesn't want to be asked the same question why does he even ask? Stop it, Ada change the subject.

"Another question: what was your favourite subject in school?" "Very good question", he said suddenly looking up to me. "Let me think. Mhhh. My favourite subject was math. I know many people don't like math, but I liked it very much. Especially with my friend", he said and lowered his gaze again on his plate. "Do you know that my favourite subject was also math? So, I can understand you." He looks up and looked straight in to my easy with an emotion that I didn't see before. It was like a mix of happiness, regret, and unhappiness. What is he thinking? "Really? What was your favourite theme in math?", he asked. "I liked the part where we could solve equations. I understood all the rules and was able to find out the unknown variables. I was quite fast, and my friend was always jealous." I laughed at the fact. "I miss him very much." "I on the contrary could never solve the equations but my frie..."

Bora

What the heck? This can't be real. I think I am dreaming. I need to make sure that this is not a dream. "Ada can I ask you a question?" "Yes." "What was the name of your friend?" "Wait you don't think that this is possible right?" "Ada just say the name." "It... it... sorry", she said as a tear ran down her cheek. "Bora?" She got up and came over to me. I got up and she threw herself into my arms. "Is it really you?", she asked me while she was sobbing. I can't believe that after so many years we found each other. "Yes, rabbit." She looks up to me and laughs. Her eyes are teary and red. "You didn't forget the nickname. I missed you so much." "I missed you too." "Wait did you change your surname?", she asked me in confusion. "Yes, you too, right?" "Yeah because of that we didn't know each other."

Ada

One thing I learnt from live is that it can surprise the shit out of a person. Fate that is the right word. When fate wants it that way it will happen no matter what you try. We had to suffer the time we were apart but now fate brought us in a beautiful way back together. Then when I needed someone. Then when I was alone. "Thank God", we said together. "Come on rabbit. We should get out of here. We have a lot of things to talk about."
