Fifteen minutes later, Ayhan, Sanem and JJ are still struggling with the one tent that kept collapsing.

"I need to see inside, maybe the problem is there," JJ says and opens the manual.

"I'll open it then and you crawl in," Sanem says and nods, glancing at Can and Gamze walking away from the group.

"Hold it open."

"I am." Ayhan helps her and JJ crawls in, holding up the sides of the tent.

Can and Gamze sit down at one of the tables nearby with him opening a flask of something hot and pouring it into cups.

"What do you see?"

"Hold it up it's falling on me."

"JJ - "

"Get out of here!"

Sanem had bent to lift the tent and crawl in too. She ignores JJ's protests and joins him anyway, pulling the tent over them.

"Sanem!"

"JJ! Stop rolling around!"

Ayhan shoves the tentpen through and tries to make it stick.

"JJ, what don't you understand?! Stop rolling and look - "

"If you stop kicking my shin I can stop trying to get away!"

Sanem slaps JJ and he slaps her back, both trying to hold it up. Sanem kicks out to the sides and grunts.

"Miss Sanem?"

Huh? Who's that? Sanem pops her head out of the tent and looks up at Fabri, staring down at the two of them wriggling in the tent. She leans on her elbow, holding her head and smiles, her eyes wide. "Yes?"

"What are you doing?"

"Uhm," Sanem frowns, shrugging her free shoulder. "We're almost done. One or two things only."

"I see. Do you need help finishing?"

"Sure but really, there isn't a lot left - "

"Only the entire tent," JJ mutters behind her and she elbows him.

"Come out of there," Fabri waves them out.

"Alright." JJ is out first while Sanem's one foot it stuck in part of the tent. She kicks it but it stays put and JJ starts helping.

"If you get out today we can be done by dinner time," Fabri sighs.

"Okay, okay," Sanem groans and finally gets her foot loose. "I'm out." She rolls away and stands up, fixing her shirt standing next to Ayhan and JJ.

"Do you know how to do it?" Ayhan asks.

"I've done a few over the years," Fabri chuckles. "Never this type though but how hard can it be?"
He shrugs and immediately starts working on it.

They help in handing him various items he asks for and after a couple of minutes the tent is up and standing.

Throughout, Sanem kept looking over at Can and Gamze at the table, not paying attention to anyone else and Fabri noticed, pursing his lips and rolling his eyes at her staring.

"Well done Mr Fabri," JJ praises.

"Yes, you put up a great tent," Sanem claps and looks at the table. "You really helped us a lot, thank you very much." She speaks this over the top loud but no one is looking. "I had a feeling you could do it."

Fabri looks over her shoulder when she glances over it to check again after saying this just as loud, with Can and Gamze laughing, still in their own bubble of coversation. He puts his hands in his pockets before he turns to face them outright. "Mr Can and Miss Gamze are very close hm?"
