«Aunt, are you at home?»

«Eda, my girl, you have arrived» the woman hugged her niece tightly.

«I'm here, here» Eda laughed. «You're going to strangle me».

«I still don't understand what you have with Serkan, but I'm so glad you're at home» smiled Aifer.

«I'm glad too. Do you have anything to eat? Let me make some tea» Eda suggested.

«I'll do everything myself, my flower. You sit down. What are your plans for the day?»

«I'll help you anyway. As for the plans, I'll eat, change my clothes and go to the office» Eda replied.

«Straight to the office. Well, what haven't you seen there?»

«Serkan doesn't know I've arrived yet. I wanted to surprise him. I promise I'll spend the evening with you».

«And you know what, come with Serkan for dinner».

«Are you going to try to make him eat ribs again?» Eda laughed.

«Yes, if he does not remember that he has already eaten them once» smiled Aifer. «And actually, he liked them then».

«Good, good. If they don't have burning projects, then we will come».

«You put the ring back on your ring finger» Aifer said.

«Serkan did it, not me. He wanted to show me the seriousness of his intentions» Eda smiled.

«Then definitely come. How is it that he still does not know the relatives of his fiancée».

«He knows Auntie» Eda laughed. «And let's go eat already, I've missed your food so much».

***

Eda got out of the taxi and froze in front of the office. She really thought she'd never come back here. And now she's going to come in. And she may even get a job as a landscape designer again.

«Mrs. Eda?» as soon as the girl opened the door, she was recognized.

«Aileen, it's good that you're still working here. I already imagined how I would now have to explain who I am and why I can go without an appointment».

«Shall I inform Mr. Serkan that you have arrived? Although he doesn't remember you. Then maybe Mrs. Pyryl or Mr. Engin?»

«No need to tell anyone, thanks Aileen» Eda smiled. «I'll just go».

Eda looked into the common area, where everyone, as always, was working diligently. Even Engin was studying something carefully on the monitor.

Eda lightly knocked on the glass door of Engin's office.

«Eda!»

«Shh. Don't make any noise, Serkan doesn't know I'm here yet.»

«Come here, I'll hug you. I'm so glad to see you. What are you doing here?» Engin was surprised.

«Serkan didn't tell you? He asked me to fly to Istanbul when my project in Italy is over» Eda shared, surprised that Serkan did not tell.

«He said that you sometimes exchange SMS. But he didn't say you were coming. Maybe he was afraid that you wouldn't do it».

«Is he in his office upstairs?» Eda asked.

«No. You won't believe it, but this time, for some reason, he also moved to work in a conference room. There's Leila coming, you can find out from her how busy he is right now» he nodded towards Leila, who came out of Serkan's office.
