Edser In Love

We all eat lies when our hearts are hungry! pt 3

Hey guys. Enjoy reading the final part of this story. This story was special to me and I hope I did justice to the plot.

Sorry for writing my heart out in this. Phewww, almost 10k words!

PS:- It has smut. 🔞🔞🔞

Recap:
His fears apparently did come true; because over the course of next 2 weeks, what the doctors mentioned happened. Eda went into post traumatic stress and anxiety. She completely stopped responding to him and talking to him.

—————-
That night after Eda let her heart out, she had went in and locked herself in the room which Serkan thought was usual like every night. But she didn't open it the next morning even though Serkan kept knocking. She would only say "I need time alone", "I don't want to talk to you" and "I don't want to see you."

He was really worried what was happening with her. She did come out in the afternoon, looking really tired and anxious. She made a smoothie for herself, ignoring the food that Serkan had prepared for her and went back inside locking the room. She didn't talk to him at all even though he had tried initiating conversations with her. She kept herself locked in the room that whole day, only coming out to make meals for herself.

Serkan had thought maybe she would get better in a day or two but it became a routine. He wasn't able to reach out to her. And the worst happened when at nights he would hear her screams and cries of nightmare but he wouldn't be able to go to her because she would have her room locked. He would sit outside her room leaning on the door, whispering sweet words and telling her that he was there for her, he would protect her, she just needed to open the door. Eventually when she would not open the door but calm down and probably go back to sleep, he would go back to his room and sleep.

Even Halit at times tried to support Eda by talking about random things to her when she would come out of her room occasionally, she indeed did build a subtle friendship with Halit but it never went beyond pleasantries and a few here and there questions. She was definitely taking time to trust people around her.

Serkan had talked to the doctors, who told him that it was definitely the post traumatic stress disorder and that she really needed to let out or vent out or be in constant emotional support by someone she trusted, so Serkan had no choice but to call Melo and ask for help who immediately agreed to come to Istanbul the next day. Even Melo had been worried for Eda because Eda stopped picking her calls.

That night after calling Melo from Artlife, he drove back to the beach house and relieved Halit from his day duty, who was always present in the house in case Serkan would be out somewhere.

"Any news?" He asked entering the house, removing his blazer and shoes.

"No sir. We have tips about Semiha still being in Italy and no clue about Selin. Burak was the only person who knew about all the secret houses of Selin, so it's taking us more time to pin point her location. Don't worry sir. I will get both of them to you. We owe it to Eda hanim." Halit said the last part emotionally feeling bad for his boss and Eda. His boss had for the first time shown emotions like these, which meant he really loved his wife and was struggling to reach out to her and was in constant stress at all times about Eda, constantly asking about her if he would be out for work to Artlife or trying to talk to her when she would come out of her room. Halit knew that Serkan was also feeling a huge amount of guilt for being the one responsible for Eda going through all this.

He had been the one so eager to get his shipment back that he had literally destroyed a life because of that and he had been the one who has trusted Selin blindly and again Eda was the victim. He just wanted to do things right for her, be there for her and help her heal. He had started prioritising Eda over everything else and all his thoughts all the time were if Eda was okay.
