The whole morning Eda had cried her eyes out.
Serkan came and then he went abruptly. She couldn't understand what kind of joke was that? If he was here to talk to her, why would he leave saying he was disturbing her.
She felt good to see him here on her door but then also her heart ached for him coming back and she feared her baby's health. She didn't want her baby to suffer. After a lot of effort in last one month, she had controlled her fainting and tried her best to uplift her mood so that her baby won't get affected.

She kept wondering if he remembered her and that is why he was here. She facepalmed herself saying that was impossible and if something like that had happened, Serkan wouldn't have left like that.

That evening, Melo and Deniz decided to take Eda out for some shopping and dinner to help improve her mood. Melo had been wondering why her eniste came and went all of a sudden. She found it fishy that he had come all the way to London for Eda but then left dubiously in just a few minutes. She wished she would have been there to understand what had happened.

She didn't want to give Eda any hopes or talk about Serkan because Eda had been visibly disturbed and sad about his arrival. But something definitely was not sitting well with Melo. There was something fishy about Serkan's visit to them and he was going to dig into this matter.

For now, she put it all aside and they sat to eat in a beautiful river side restaurant to enjoy their meals after a shopping session.
Eda was a little cheerful now but she was still thinking about Serkan. One part of her wanted him to be there. She wished he would have come in her house, talked to her; apologised to her and asked for a chance but she shook her head thinking she was definitely delusional and something like that happening was close to null since their final divorce hearing for scheduled for a month and half from now, just 15 days before her expected date of delivery. So once her daughter would be born, they both wouldn't carry the Bolat surname.

She sighed closing her eyes for a few long seconds, not wanting the tears to flow down her face in front of her friends who were trying to cheer her up since the incident and she didn't want to disappoint them. So she closed her eyes, shook her head, mentally chiding herself for thinking of Serkan.
She scolded herself in her head. Serkan didn't deserve her attention at all and she was going to forget him, she had made up her mind.

So she opened her eyes, quite determined to not think about him anymore and focus back on the conversation with Deniz and Melo.
Deniz was joking about something and casually wrapped an arm around Eda's shoulder. They were sitting next to each other, their backs to the other tables and Melo sat on their opposite side from where she could look behind.

Melo's eyes widened when she saw Serkan sitting a few tables from them, and he was looking at them with a lost and teary gaze. Melo's breathing hitched as she had an eye contact with Serkan and Serkan immediately looked away standing up hurriedly to leave before any of them came his way.

He had just wanted to go for a quick dinner and then maybe talk to Engin on phone telling him the situation. Co-incidentally he came to the same place as Eda. He hadn't seen Eda's face since it was her back to him but he had seen how all through the dinner, Deniz and Eda sat close to each other, Deniz's arm around Eda's back and how Eda was comfortably laughing to things he was whispering in her ears.
