Snippets of alternate outcomes in the lives and enduring love story of Can Divit and Sanem Aydin.
When I started out with this story, I only intended to loosely base the 'short piece' on the events in Bolum (Episodes) 17 & 18 however, I got such pos...
When I look into your eyes It's like watching the night sky Or a beautiful sunrise Well, there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars I see that you've come so far To be right where you are How old is your soul?
Well, I won't give up on us Even if the skies get rough I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up
And when you're needing your space To do some navigating I'll be here patiently waiting To see what you find
'Cause even the stars, they burn Some even fall to the earth We got a lot to learn God knows we're worth it No, I won't give up
I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make Our differences, they do a lot to teach us how to use The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake And in the end, you're still my friend, at least we did intend For us to work, we didn't break, we didn't burn We had to learn how to bend, without the world caving in I had to learn what I got and what I'm not And who I am
I won't give up on us Even if the skies get rough I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up I'm still looking up
Well, I won't give up on us (no, I'm not giving up) God knows I'm tough, he knows (I am tough, I am loved) We got a lot to learn (we are alive, we are loved) God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)
I won't give up on us Even if the skies get rough I'm giving you all my love I'm still looking up

Sanem
The shockwaves of Can striking Fabri and breaking his nose still roared through Istanbul a week later, and Sanem's blood ran cold each time she heard or read devious Fabri's name. With press statements and interviews, he shamelessly distorted reality, painting Can as an irrational madman and a bully with no control over his actions.
Her heart ached for Can, who was now facing public backlash for defending her, and for trying to hold on to his father's legacy. She knew that Can was simply defending their love, but the world saw him as an aggressor.

She felt helpless, knowing that Can was being portrayed as a villain, while the truth lay buried under the shadows of Fabri's relentless lies and slanderous words. Poor Can bore the brunt of vile social media attacks, with many of Fabri's fans even calling for his imprisonment.
Sanem was drained from Fabri's relentless lies and slanderous words which threatened Can's integrity with each passing day. During the day, she tried to focus on her job at the charity, but her mind wandered constantly, thinking about how she could make things right for Can.
