LOOSING HOPE

FAMILY BLISS

Can made love to his wife all night long. He would never get enough of her. He woke up first to find her head on his chest. Her hair was spread out all around her and him. He ran his fingers through her hair. He loved the feel of it. Sanem slowly woke up and looked up at her husband. She smiled and said good morning. He kissed her nose and said good morning. Can started caressing her back. They were both still naked. Sanem rolled over on top of him. She started kissing him while running her hands through his beard. Sanem told him she loved waking up like this. Can smiled and said him too. Sanem sat up on top of him. Can started caressing her chest. Sanem could not wait. She lifted herself up and sat down on his member. It was already standing erect. He filled her completely. Sanem started moving and then Can joined in. They were moving as one. Can reached down to help her with her release. Soon she was flying high and saw stars behind her eyes. Can followed shortly after her. He immediately flipped her over and he was now on top. He kissed her deeply. He looked deep into her eyes and told her he loved her and would until the end of their days. Sanem smiled and told him she would love him even after the end of their days. She would search for him on the other side. Can kissed her again. Sanem told him they better get up. The triplets would be up soon. Can said OK, if he had too.

They got up, dressed and headed to the kitchen. Sanem heard Atesh in his bedroom. She open the door and found him playing with his toys. The triplets would be 3 years old soon. Sanem could not believe the time was flying by. She asked him what he was doing. Atesh said he was paying (playing). She asked if he was hungry. He nodded yes. Sanem said she would come get him when breakfast was done. She checked on Deniz, who was still sleeping. She then went and checked on Yildiz and found her still sleeping too. Sanem went to the kitchen, where Can had started breakfast. He was making his famous omelets. They smelled heavenly. She walked up behind him and wrapped her arms around him. He put his hands over hers. He asked if the kids were up. She told him only Atesh was up and he was playing with his toys. She said the girls would be up soon.

Sanem started setting the table for breakfast. She made the toast, while Can finished the omelets. Soon the girls were awake. Of course, Deniz was hungry. It was always the first thing to come out of her mouth when she woke up. She was so much like her momma, appetite and all. Everyone sat down to eat. Atesh and Deniz lapped up the breakfast. Yildiz always took her time and picked at everything. Sanem told Yildiz she needed to eat her breakfast. She said O tay, momma. Deniz and Atesh finished and went to play. Yildiz was whining they she wanted to play. Can told her to eat a little more and then she could go play. She ate a few more bites and said she was done. Can let her down to play. Sanem told Can she was worried about Yildiz's appetite. Can told her there was nothing to worry about. She just wasn't a big eater. Sanem said she would mention it to the pediatrician at the triplets next appointment.

Can said he was going to get ready to head to the agency. He asked Sanem if she was going in today. She told Can if he didn't really need her, she thought she would just stay home today. Can kissed her and said that was fine. If he needed her, he would call her. Sanem said OK. Sanem started cleaning up the breakfast dishes. Once the kitchen was in order, she headed to the living area to pick up toys from last night. She got them all picked up and put in the toy box. She then headed to their bedroom to make the bed. Can was dressed and putting on his rings and necklaces. Sanem told Can he looked very handsome. He hugged her and said thank you, my lovely wife. Sanem reached up and kissed him softly on the lips. She told Can to have a good day at work. He said he would, but he would miss seeing her next to him all day. Sanem said she would miss him too. He kissed his kids and headed out the door.

Can arrived at the agency to find Ahmet waiting for him in his office. Can told him he didn't know they had an appointment. Ahmet said they didn't, but he wanted to speak with Can about what happened last night. Can told him he didn't know what was left to say about it. He made his feelings abundantly clear last night. He told Ahmet his brother, Cinar was very lucky he didn't kick his ass for making his wife uncomfortable. Ahmet said he came to apologize. He wants to continue doing business with Can's agency. Can told him he didn't think that would be possible. He told Ahmet he wanted no dealings with his brother any longer. Ahmet told Can if he could guarantee there would be no more dealings with Cinar, would he consider keeping them as clients. Can said he would have to think about it. He told Ahmet his brother went way over the line last night. He told Ahmet his wife was very uncomfortable, and she should not have been. He told Ahmet they were happily married with 3 kids and Sanem had made that clear to Cinar. He said Sanem even introduced herself to Cinar as Can's wife. Ahmet told him he was so sorry it all happened. He promised his brother would no longer be involved in any dealings with Can's agency. He asked if Sanem was there today, so he could personally apologize. Can told him no. His wife decided to stay home today with their kids. Ahmet said he would go then, but to please let him know when he decided. Can shook his hand and said he would.

Meanwhile at home, Sanem was working on her book while the kids played. She was almost ready to send it to her publisher in America. Can wanted to finish reading it first, which Sanem had agreed. At least their happy ending in the book was a reality now and not just a dream. Sanem realized Can's birthday was coming up soon. She wanted to do something special for him, but she didn't know what. She knew he hated celebrating his birthday. He did not like parties. He usually just wanted to spend time with her and the kids. She would suggest another weekend away, but she had no clue where to take him. She would have to think about it. Maybe if she was lucky, Can would let something slip about where he wanted to go. She would just have to keep her ears open.

After Sanem fed the kids lunch, she put them down for their afternoon nap. She sat on the couch in the living area and started reading one of Can's books. He had many books on his bookshelf. Thank goodness his taste in books was the same as hers. Her cell phone alerted her to an incoming text message. It was from Can. He was asking how things were at home and that he missed her. Sanem told him the kids were napping and she was reading one of his books, enjoying the peace and quiet. He texted it wasn't the same there at the office without her. Sanem said she was sorry. She was just really tired and wanted to spend the day with the kids. Can told her she was forgiven. Sanem texted that she loved him. Can texted her back and said he loved her more. Sanem texted him that she wanted to talk to him this evening when he got home. He asked if everything was OK. Sanem said yes, everything was perfect. He said OK, they would talk this evening, his beloved. Sanem decided to just ask him where he wanted to go for his birthday. He would be OK with hit, since it would be just her and him. No big celebration. She already knew what she was going to buy him. She saw a beautiful albatross necklace in a magazine. She would have their kid's names engraved on the back of the albatross. She knew he would love it.
