The other woman

Beginging

I was born in England yes England to a English woman and her Turkish husband. My mother was a kind woman till my 15 birthday becuse see that was the day she died. My mother died trying to give my father a son he had always wanted , though he loved me very much he wanted a son for the purpose of a heir .an heir was important you see because my brother if I had one would have become the keeper of everything which I was ok with becuse in the back of my mind I thought I would just end up marrying a merchant but that was not to be. The child and my mother died and on that day my father decided that we must go home ,well to his home . My father when I was born named me Sofia Elizabeth ,my mother loved the name because it was simple and delicate. My family was just me mother and father . Mothers family disowned her for marrying father  because he was from Turkey and my fathers family had 10 sons so they didn't mind him leaving Istanbul well his mother did mind because dad was the baby of the family .We lived in a comfortable house in the country my father learned English from mother and I learned Turkish from him . My father  being a merchant and my mother was busy taking care of me it was a wonderful life .The day we decided to leave my mother and the life we had learned to love so much was the day my heart broke and I knew my life would never be the same. It would be a mystery .
