Leila: Sanem, you have done too much you need a vacation. Please take some time for yourself.

Sanem: I can't abla. What if he remembers?

Leila: You need to live your life.

Sanem: I am! Part of it is on hold. That's all.

Leila: Just take a couple days and rest. I can tell you have lost weight. You aren't eating and you aren't getting enough sleep.

Sanem: I'm managing fine okay.

Leila: Please think about it. You could go to Agva? It's not far that is Can gets his memory back you are close by. Sun, sand, and relaxation?

Sanem: Fine, I will think about it. Okay?

Leila: Okay:)

Leila left Sanem in her guest bedroom at their home. Emre was waiting outside their door.

Emre: How did it go?

Leila: Oh you know how stubborn she is. She said she will think about it but I'm worried about her. She hasn't been eating and I know she has nightmares from the accident.

Emre: Look, I know she doesn't want us to push Can but I think it's time he understood all that she has done for him.

Leila: Do you think that will be too much?

Emre: I hope not but maybe we can start slow. I know she gave him her book. Maybe I can convince him to read it sooner rather than later.

Leila: I think that's a good start. Let's see how this will all go.

The following day they were all back at the agency. Can came back into the office already requesting chai. Ceycey was bringing to him now. Can felt pressured to see Sanem that he requested Ceycey bring him chai from now on.

Can: Emre? Let's go get some lunch I'm feeling a bit suffocated her today.

Emre: Sure abi let me just get my coat.

They drove out to get some sandwiches by the shore.

Emre: How are you feeling being back at the agency?

Can: Honestly its okay. I mean I miss photography obviously but I know I won't be here for much longer anyway so it's fine. How about you? I hope I didn't burst your bubble being in charge here.

Emre: No of course not it's great. I just wish you had your memories back.

Can: I know but I thank you for not pushing me. I know it must be hard for Sanem. I wish I could remember but I look at her and I don't feel anything. I know that when I leave she will be better off.

Emre: I don't think leaving is the answer here. Did you ever read her book?

Can: Not yet. I'm having a hard time concentrating when I read since the accident. I get a headache after 5 minutes of reading.

Emre: Can, I need to tell you something.

Can: Okay, I'm listening.

Emre: You need to read the book.

Can: I just told you.

Emre: And I'm telling you. You need to read the book.

Can: Okay. I will. Goodness.

Emre: Look, we have all been trying not to pressure you or push you but I'm tired of this. You need to understand that Sanem changed you after you met.

Can: I couldn't have changed that much. I mean I had just gotten back from sailing around the world. Clearly my old life has altered terribly.

Emre: Ahh, I can't believe I'm going to do this. She was your life brother. She was the game changer for you.

Can: Emre I get it she's sweet and pretty but did I really fall that hard? I know I had mixed feelings about Polen but we had history and now you are saying that this Sanem changed everything for me.

Emre: Yes! I had never seen you like that ever in my life. She made you better.

Can: Better how?

Emre: Sanem brought you to life. When you first told me that you had fallen in love with her I couldn't believe it myself but your face was beaming like a teenager. I have never seen you so happy in my life. You were serious fast. I know it sounds crazy but you were crazy about her.

Can: Come on Emre, I'm a loner always have been. Polen understands that. I need my space. I've never been one to commit.

Emre: Brother you were beyond committed to her. I mean it took you about a whole 2 weeks to bring up marriage to her.

Can: Marriage, this doesn't sound like me at all. Was I under some spell? Huh? This doesn't sound like me at all.

Emre: No spell just love. You fell hard for her. You loved her passion for all things in life. Her passion for the sea, birds, books, constellations, and everything else about her. Literally all you wanted to do was be with her 24/7.

Can: I just can't believe I was so in love with anyone.

Emre: Well get used to it because she has done everything to help with your recovery.

Can: What do you mean?

Emre: She brought back the agency. Paid for your medical bills and rented the building where the agency is just so you could get better.

Can: I thought the agency was okay.

Emre: We went bankrupt and Sanem helped bring it back to life. She used her earnings from her book to make sure everything was like how it was for you.

Can: Wow, I don't even know what to say.

Emre: Just say you will read her book. It is your love story. I can't let you leave until you read it. Sanem is my sister and I love her dearly. She is the reason you decided to forgive me.

Can: Okay I will start today when we get back to the agency.

Emre: Just go to the hut and start reading. Call me if you need to talk. When you read everything you will probably have questions.

Can: Okay, I will be going then.

Emre pulled him in for a hug.

Good luck brother. Please remember.
