(I think i am being too generous with the chapters😊😊...but what the hell...please don't forget to vote many thanks👍👍⚘⚘💖💖.)

There was something she needed to do...maybe then then she would feel a little at ease. There was really no point holding on to the past... he'd moved on now as had she...it was futile thinking otherwise. Like she'd told Yousef...tomorrow she would tell Layla to give the envelope she left with her to Metin...Yes Metin not to him direct. Once that was out of the way....

They'd been talking for a while, Sanem was hesitating in asking Layla, but it had to be done...

"Abla I need you to do me a favour."

"Is everything Ok Sanem?"

"Yes Abla everything is fine it's just...remember I gave you an envelope before I left."

"Yes I have it with me; I've kept it safe like you asked."

"Well I need you to give it to Metin."

"What's in the envelope Sanem?" Layla said with concern in her voice.

"No Questions...Abla just do this for me please."

"Sanem you not doing anything stupid are you."

"Abla please..."

"Ok I'll drop it off to him first thing tomorrow before I go to work, but Sanem are you sure of what you're doing."

"I'm sure...listen Abla I'm a bit tired so I talk to you tomorrow but please message me when you see Metin." They said their good byes.

After the call Sanem had a light dinner ... It had been a long day; she had been working from home for the last few days...but still she was getting nowhere. Deciding against getting back to work she opted to have an early night.

Lying in bed she was thinking...once Abla gave the documents to Metin it was up to him as in how to deal with it...the ball was now in his court.

When she had applied for the petition she had asked all the relevant questions. She had been told it could take up to three months for the divorce to be finalised.

As well as the divorce petition the envelope had a small package that contained a letter, her wedding ring and the last vial of perfume, she had given him full rights to the perfume from tomorrow it was his to do with whatever he wanted. Like most other nights with her last thoughts of Can... she drifted off to sleep.

Metin had just walked into his office building, his sectary informed him that someone had come and was waiting for him. As he approached his office he recognised the person as Layla.

"Layla welcome." He shook her hand.

"Hello Metin, I hope you don't mind I just need a few minutes of your time."

"Of course not...come on in." he said holding the door open for her, "Please take a seat." He closed the door and sat at his desk.

"Metin...Sanem wanted me to give you this." Taking the envelope out of her bag she handed it to Metin.

"Ok...what is it?" Hesitantly taking the envelope.

"I have no idea she gave it to me before she left. Listen...I have to get to the office, thank you for your time....I really appreciate it."

"It's nothing, anytime...by the way give my regards to Sanem."

"Will do."

Closing the door when Layla had left, Metin sat at his desk...looking at the envelope. Could it be....No...No...she wouldn't have? Would she? This would devastate him further if she had arranged this before she had left. True his situation was worse but it wasn't known at that time. 

Not waiting a moment longer he opened the envelope. There were two envelopes inside...one a legal document the other a small bulky package addressed to Can Divit. Putting the small package aside he looked at the legal document. 

It was a petition for divorce...dated three months ago. This was it...once filed it would take up to three months to finalise their divorce maybe even less considering the petition was dated this long ago.

He knew his friend was taking the step out of compulsion. Now Sanem had made it even easier. Metin had always been a good judge of character....in his opinion this was so out of character...so unlike Sanem. Like Can... this seemed a choice Sanem had made out of helplessness.

Well he had to let Can know it would be better if he told him in person. He could also give him the package. Grabbing his jacket he headed out.

The agency was busy as Metin entered, he hoped Polen was not there. However on entering she was the first person he saw. He decided against giving the package to Can, he would take to the cabin tonight. He knew Can had been staying there since the engagement. However he continued to the office to inform him of the papers.

"Can...can I come in." Metin said as he knocked and entered Cans office...closing the door.

"Of course, welcome Metin...everything Ok?"

"Well Can it looks like we can go ahead with filing the divorce."
