Going back to the palace I went to get my son from Handan Sultan right away.
I feel so happy whenever it comes to meet up again as we're finally friends again, after all the hell we have gone through.
And besides my son needs his grandmother anyway...
----- TIME SKIP -----
Surprisingly, or not Mahfiruze was in the room as well when I arrived.
- Ah, you're here too... - she groaned on a really negative way.
- Hello to you too, Mahfiruze - I smiled as I tried not to show my hatred towards her.
I think I did it better than she did.
Anyway...
After greeting Handan as well I went to see my baby boy while some minutes later Mahfiruze left the room.
- She's jealous - said Handan after a while of silent.
- Jealous of who?
- Of you and Mehmed.
- Huh?
I turned towards her as for a while I had my back to her.
- You heard me - she repeated - She's jealous because appearently I care more about you and him than her and her son... Although this doesn't make any sense.
- Well... You really are more around us than her. That part is true.
She sighed.
- Now what do you want me to say? That I care more about you two than them because you got Safiye to leave and you also got rid of Fahriye Sultan.
- I didn't get rid of her yet...
- Kösem...
- Yes?
- Remember what did I tell you before?
- That... The most important thing to me should be to take care of my son...
- Exactly. So leave them be for now, okay?
I just nodded.
----- TIME SKIP -----
That night I was so tired that as soon as my son fell asleep in my arms I fell asleep myself as well, with him still in my arm.
Everything has been calm until I woke up and I realized that he disappeared...
- What...
I was still sleepy so I couldn't react quickly, but once when I was awake I called for Azura, who had no idea what happened.
And this was when I started to freak out for real...
I ran out of my room, just screaming out so everyone can pay attention to this issue.
On my way I bumped into Gölge...
- My son! They kidnapped him! Help me, Gölge! - I panted.
She nodded and run to a different direction to help me out while I also heard the Valide Handan Sultan coming out the mumbling something and going off somewhere as well.
- Mehmed! They took him!!
I continued running around to find him, but at some point I was out of breath.
Only then I heard a familiar crying from outside the balcony...
- Mehmed! - I panted as I run out to the balcony to see...
