We've been married five wonderful, marvelous and sublime years! There are more truer words than the fact that Sanem is the actual center of my universe, her and our twins! None of us would even know how to function without her, it is that simple and a pure fact of our life!
The children are turning a year old tomorrow and a birthday party is being setup to celebrate the occasion. Leyla, Ayhan, Deren and Müge are helping Sanem with the preparations and decorations.Who is Müge you ask? It's that nut Muzzo's wife, he finally found an equal and married her... and did I mention she's just like him?!!
It's late afternoon and I'm in the atelier processing some photos in the dark room. The children are with their doting grandparents for the day and they usually don't get dropped off at night unless Sanem & I insist. They're growing up so fast, they're so adorable, loud and rambunctious when awake, full of life and energy..... just like their loving, caring and fabulous mom!
Irrespective of where I am, my psyche, eyes and ears are always tuned towards Sanem. I can see and hear her from across a crowded room like I have antennas that catch her signature frequency, and of course, the woman still slays and revives me with her essence!
From inside the dark room, I can't hear the questions being asked of her, but I can hear her talk, crystal clear, as though she's standing next to me.
S: "Deren, that needs to go here.... I think we should arrange it in a circle, do you think that'll be good idea?"
..
..
S: "Aiiyyyeee Ayhan, I only asked you to taste a piece of the cake, not eat the whole thing!
S: "Ok Ok.... please bake a new one.... we may need more than one flavor anyways."
..
..
S: "No Abla-cim, I've already paid the clown an advance... can you confirm that he'll be on time tomorrow?"
S: "..... and ask him not to drink before the party.... he can have a drink after the party is over!"
..
..
S: "Müge-cik, NOooooo, you can't wear a lady clown costume.... Abla, you're special to the children and we'd like you to be you in the photos. Please listen to me dear! "
..
..
Ah... Sanem... AH! She's in her element, managing everything, just the way she likes it, and she's asked me to be daddy-dearest, that's it! I smirk and smile...Okay sweetheart, whatever you want me to be, I'll be, forever!
