Author's Note: I wrote this for International Women's Day 2019.
Can Divit was not raised by a loving, caring and doting mother. So as part of the Fan Fiction I deliberately decided to build strong female characters around him who are nurturers, sometimes mothers, caregivers but ultimately strong, powerful, confident and brave women! Based on EK 28, you can tell Can Divit is very comfortable in the company of such women and naturally gravitates towards them! And EK 33.... what an episode!!!!

Emin-Hanim (Turkey) :: "Unfamilial", Age 10
"I have Emin Hanim, our housekeeper and cook who takes care of me... I've never been thirsty or hungry. In fact, I spend so much time on the kitchen island doing homework, I've become her handy helper and she's teaching me to cook. She's a good lady, doesn't talk much but she knows exactly what I like to eat. Ditto for getting ready for school, my clothes are always in order and I'm in a comfortable and clean bedroom. Rifat Bey is her husband and they both live in the servant quarters nearby."
Emin becomes his surrogate and caretaker as a young boy. She's not his mother but she performs all the housekeeping and administrative functions a mother would do for her children.
Can Divit is a great cook and that had to originate from being taught as a young man. So, it's perfect that Emin Hanim teaches him the basics and he learns his way around the kitchen!

Amma (Sri Lanka) :: "Moon Embracing the Sun", Age 21
"Amma has not left my side for the last month or so and she's been hovering like a guardian angel. She's a mystic and shaman of sorts... and works with stones and crystals and believes in the energy they bring to us. As soon as I wake up, she gives me two Meetiyagoda moonstones, urges me to always have them with me.... and explains their meaning : the stones, white and black hold the ethereal light of the moon in solid form and represent the light and dark side of the moon. They're also indicative of human nature i.e. good and bad within the same person... and how when someone loves you, they're able to see, accept and embrace all of you! Wow... Amma is intuitive indeed.... and she adds that they're also a protective amulet of and for travelers! "
