Can and Sanem, a love story

"Keep breathing baby"

Summary : Sanem works way too much and this isn't going to end well... or is it? 

She was now officially Sanem Divit. Sanem Divit, wife of Can Divit and head creative of the company. All her campaigns were a success, people wanted to work with her, they wanted her to share her talent with them and were almost everytime amazed by her ideas. This made Can very proud. Baya, baya, baya proud. But it also made him worried. She worked too much and didn't take time to have some rest. She knew the company still had some financial issues and she wanted to help her husband. "Sanem, we are going to resolve all of this but you really have to sleep more", he told her that Monday morning, seeing the dark circles under her eyes. The happy couple was now living in Can's old house. It took them months to renovate it. But now, it was their home. Their perfect home, surrounded by all kind of flowers, with rooms for their future babies, a swimming pool for summer, a barbecue, and a huge library. They were spending most of their time outside, watching the stars or the clouds. Sometimes, a tired Sanem fall asleep on his shoulder. Because he didn't want to wake her up, he stayed with her without moving, letting her have the rest she deserved. 

But today, Sanem couldn't have any rest. She had two meetings and not only was she tired but she was also feeling sick. "You should take a day off", Can told her, knowing she would disagree of course. She was so stubborn. 

When they arrived at work they kissed one last time. Then Can went to his office and Sanem to hers. Everyday was the same. They shared a kiss, then they were doing their tasks far from one other. Next, they had lunch together. A moment just for the two of them, far from the stressful contracts and campaigns they had to manage. Today was not supposed to be any different. But it was. Sanem was not feeling well. She even skipped her lunch with Can, telling him she was not hungry. Of course, he was not going to let her alone in her office. He sat next to her, putting some meal on her desk. "I will not let you go through the day without any food", he said. She smiled at him, a smile that couldn't hide her exhausted face. 

"Sanem, after today, I swear I'm taking you to vacations"

"There's so many things to do there, we can't go", she answered, almost crying as the pain inside her body was becoming almost insurmountable. But she didn't want to show it to Can, so she kept it for herself, thinking that everything would get better after a good night of sleep. 

"That's not negotiable Sanem", he told her, caressing her hair, like he always did. He stayed next to her to make sure she was eating. Before going back to work, he asked her one more time to take care of her. He knew something was wrong, and he knew her so well that he was sure she was not telling him everything not to worry him. He was definitely taking her to vacations as soon as they were back home.

But he wouldn't have time for this. After a few hours of work, he heard people talking loudly. Some of them were panicking and it didn't take him long to understand something was happening. It immediately hit him that Sanem could be in danger. He left his office, run through the long corridor. He pushed everyone who was on his way, running as fast as he could. He then penetrated the crowd, crushing on Cay Cay and Deren. When he saw her, it was like a punch in his heart. She was laying on the floor, on a fetal position, crying and screaming in pain, her arms wrapped around her stomach. Can rushed to her, carrying her in his strong arms. She wrapped one of her arm around him, burying her head in his neck. Her breathing was in panic mode and she kept repeating "It hurts so much". Can took her to their car and made sure she was comfortably seated. "Keep breathing baby. Breath, you're gonna be ok",  he said. She was passing out and it worried him so bad. "Please Sanem, don't sleep. Stay with me love". When they finally arrived at the hospital, he screamed for help, asking for a doctor. He was begging for help, so scared to lose his wife, lifeless, in his arms. They were immediately taken care of by doctors who installed Sanem in a single hospital room. Seeing how worried Can was, they tried to reassure him. "We are going to take care your wife", a nurse told him with a sincere smile. They made Sanem have medical examinations. They also gave her some pain killers and some intravenous injections to keep her awake. 

"I'm so sorry", said Sanem who knew she should have listened to Can. 

"Hey, it's ok babe, what I want more than everything now is for you to get well soon"

The nurse and the doctor came back after a few hours with the results of her exams. "The good news is that you are going to be fine", the doctor said. 

"There's a bad news?" asked Can, as worried as ever. 

"The bad news is that if your wife doesn't have some rest, her pregnancy is not going to end well"

"My pregnancy?", Sanem was shocked. She knew she was tired and felt sick almost every mornings but she never thought she could be pregnant. She was working so much she didn't even notice that she hadn't had her periods for weeks. She grabbed Can's hand before crossing his gaze. She saw tears in his eyes. Happy tears of course. She knew how much he wanted a family. And he was going to finally have it. A happy and healthy family. His family.

"We are going to have a baby", he kept saying, kissing her lips, her forehead, her hands. 

"We are going to have a baby", Sanem repeated.

"Yes, you are, but now, you have to take care of yourself. No more extra work, you have to sleep, you have to eat. Today's situation was due to your overwork and to an accumulation of stress. This is no joke, I'm telling you again, you have to take care of yourself and everything will be fine", the doctor warned Sanem.

"I'll take care of you Sanem, I'll take care of both of you", Can finally said, touching his wife's belly.
