The Golden Era: Kosem

My era

Ahmed up there!
Anastasia pov:

I am Anastasia.
One day my friends and I were singing and dancing.
Suddenly my sister shouted in her squeaky voice:
"TASHO!!! HE IS HERE THIS PERVERT!!"
I threw my shoes at him and then i started running after him.
He was only 11.
I run after him and started trickling him to death.

"Anastasia?!!!" My mother shouted
"What are you doing??? How many times shall I tell you to stop making trouble?!!!! Huh"
"But mom"
"Shhh. You are grounded"
I left her but then suddenly I had the urge to ride a house and so I did.
"NASYAAA!!" Said my mother but I didn't answer bcz I dont give a shit.
I ran with my horse till the sea.
I opened my arms and kept on staring at it.
*********
The next day
My father came back!!!!
He was a merchant so he traveled to many places to sell things and buy things.
In the meantime I was sitting under our olive tree playing with my lamb, I was wearing a white dress and a flower crown made of Jasmine.
Jasmine was my favorite.
"Nasya!!!!!" My father shouted as he came towards me.
I was a bit angry with him.
He sat beside me
"Nasya my little flower why are you so angry??
Is it bcz i am going to Venice for 3 weeks???"
He said.
"Yes I am going to miss you and you are staying there for a 3 weeks of more, take me with you I am going to stick by you"
I said naggingly.
" i need you here nasya I trust you with my money your mother and your sister"
He said.
"Have I ever told you the story of this olive tree?" He said trying to cheer me up.
And it worked
"Yes only 1000 times." I said.
He leaned toward me and kissed my forehead.
"Are you going to leave tonight??" I said ,sadness filling my eyes.
He hugged me tightly.

Suddenly we heard gunshot the sound came from th sea.
I ran toward the sea.
My father tried to stop me but I didn't care.
And then i saw it.
The Ottman ship.
Everyone ran to their houses.
They didn't try hurting anyone they looked so determined.
Me and my little sister hid in our little hideout, which was under the ground.
Suddenly they envaded our house.
They searched in all the house.
I could hear their conversation.
"Are you the merchent Anzo?"said a man.
"Yes that's me"said my father."what do you want from us?"
"Don't worry we came for something good,where is your daughter?? WHERE IS SHE?!!??"
"She is not here I sent her, she is in Venice, she is there from last week."
Then my idiot sister had to shout "MOOOM!!!"

They heard her .
we are sooo done.
then the grumpy man came toward the door that led to the hideout.
He saw us...
They then held me to the ship like some slave
"Papaaaaa don't leave meee!!! I cried and shouted. But my father was already tied so my screaming was all in vain.
"NASYAAAAA-"
They hit him in his head.
"Mamaaaaa" I screamed and screamed but nobody dared to do anything.
My mother kept on running after me until she fell on the floor.
I felt deep pain in my chest, I was held by 2 strong men to god know WHERE.
My father was lying unconscious and my mother was screaming her guts out.

"WHERE ARE YOU TAKING HER????"
"Don't worry ma'ame, we are taking her to the center of the world" said the bastard who was talking to my father earlier. And then he threw her a big amount of money and then he left her.

I knew what was the centre of the world, it was most probably Turkey, the ottman empire.
All that do is killing.
I tried to get this thought out of my mind....

And just as My jasmine crown fell from my head I knew it was the end of my childhood.
