The flight to Amaysa took just under 5 hours with one stop at Istanbul. During the stop Sanem felt nervous as she made her way to the connecting flights termial. However once she had arrived at her destination she felt instantly at ease.

Yousef had not exaggerated...Amaysa was gorgeous. He had booked her an apartment just a five minutes' walk away from the riverbank.

The apartment block was owned by two older ladies Betul and Elcin....who were sisters. They had made her feel at home straight away...telling her amazing stories about the area.

Sanem had made it a habbit of sitting with them till late in the evening listening to all their stories...that was a book in it's self.

They had some wonderful tails to tell about their lives....their loves. Both had a love story of their own...but like her's it hadn't ended well.

But they were happy "It's better to have loved and lost then never to have loved at all." Betul had quoted.

Sanem would think otherwise "What about the pain of losing your love." she'd told them "Would that ever go away?" They had agreed to disagree, on the matter of love.

She had been there nearly a week... a week with no contact with anyone apart from the text she would send to Yousef every morning and evening. It was the only way her parents had agreed to this trip. Yousef contacted them every day to reassure them.

In a week she had done wonders... her book was finally complete. Earlier this evening she had called Yousef.

"Hey is everything ok." Yousef answered the call immediately.

"Of course...Yousef...why?"

"It's just we said text every morning and evening...I got a little worried seeing your number."

"No nothing to worry about in fact its good news...I've completed the book. Even better....its all typed up and sitting in your e-mail box."

"What...that's great...we should have done this ages ago...I'll have a look at it tomorrow morning. I have a meeting with Erol...So I'm at the office... He will be pleased aswell. Once I've had a look.... I'm sure we can start editing straight away. So how have you been and what do you think about the place?"

"I'm really good I feel so energetic it's  unbelievable. I haven't really had a chance to look around  properly but from what i have seen It really is beautiful... exactly how you described it...even better. And the people are just lovely. They've made me feel at home."

"That's really good I'm so glad Sanem....you really needed this break and not only for the book but for yourself."

"So what now....should I head home?"

"No...enjoy the rest of the time... there's plenty to see...go sightseeing. Just relax you deserve it, what about the place you're staying at."

"Ah Yousef....it's absolutely fabulous. Like I've said the people are just so welcoming. I can literally see the riverbank from my room. So how are Damla and Lale?"

"There're good in fact Damla's wanted to talk to you. I'm going to give her the phone...I expect a call now and again...and call your family...ok take care..."

"Thank you...hey....how's things?" Damla took over...

"Don't ask....mum came over...you know how she likes to fuss." Damla said... talking about her mother-in-law.
