Zeynep.
In the morning, Barış was better and there was no sign of fever. As well as from food. We had to leave yesterday, so there was nothing left in the fridge suitable for breakfast.
We left only half an hour after waking up in the same position we had fallen asleep in.
On the way, we exchanged simple phrases like "The mountain is very beautiful", "It must always be snowing here", "Nice song".
I was very confused because I didn't know what happened to us. We didn't talk about our conversation from last night, I hadn't admitted to him that I forgave him, he didn't even try to understand, he didn't bring up the subject of us once. Was he waiting for me to start?
"How are you, does your head hurt?" I asked after a long stare out the window next to me.
"No, I'm fine." - answered calmly. I nodded. - "Should I leave you at Emine's?" - he asked, because we were already approaching the city.
"Um." - It took me some seconds - "Yes, yes, I will stay there.."
"You will stay? Won't you come back home." - He said it again. Home.
"Not for now," I answered quietly.
Why would I go back? What if she was still there? And we can't both come back on the same day, right? It will be suspicious. I needed some time outside the gates of the mansion, I needed time to think, to get away from him.
He just nodded in agreement and something inside me snapped. Maybe I wanted him to stop me and change my mind and the fact that he didn't try stung me like a knife. Did he really give up on us so quickly? Is this how he would accept my decision to move away? Anyway, I didn't want to believe it or show that it hurt me.
After a few minutes we ended up in front of Emine's house. When the car stopped I looked at him with the last hope of hearing something from him. But I only saw his beautiful ocean eyes staring into mine as if asking for forgiveness.
I took my bag slowly and got out of the car. I closed the door behind me, keeping my eyes on his. Then I heard the sound of an engine and seconds later the car evaporated after just a wave with a timid smile.
...
"What do you mean you didn't get back together??!!"- Emine exclaimed at the other side of the table. - "What did I send you there for??!"
"Emine, believe me, I didn't understand anything! This guy seems to have an emotion off switch! Robot!!"
"Didn't he say anything this morning?"
"HAYIR!"
"Ok..how about you...did you want him to say anything?"
"Well..I don't know..I guess so. I mean... I... after we talked last night when the fever was still bothering him... I knew I had forgiven him, Emine. I did forgive him, but he never understood."
"So that girl.. What was her name? Defne?" - I nodded - "So they're not together?"
"That's what he said."
"So she's his ex?"
"No, I'm his ex!"
"How so? Did you break up?!"
"ARTIK BEN DE BİLMİYORUM!!" - I buried my head in my hands and heard the laughter of my friend.
