We Found the Real Thing....Our LovePart 2 of " Is This the Real Thing"

Chapter Fifteen

Can was the happiest he had ever been, as he drove to his house. He was in love, and she loved him, and he had won over her parents, what more could he wish for. Now he needed to talk to his dad and brother to tell them that he has found the love of his life. His mind was spinning with the possibilities, he knew he wanted to be with her the rest of his life, so a proposal was definitely the way to go. There was certain procedures that he knew he would have to go through, these were their traditions and he wasn't about to go against them. He was determined to follow their rules. But there was one thing he had to do, and that was to talk to Adin, he had to find out how he got a picture of him and Polen together. The most important thing was letting him know there was no way he would come between them. He would make sure that he understood and didn't bother Sanem again.  In fact he was looking forward to it.

Emre was just getting home as Can pulled up, " Emre, your home early, did your date stand you up? He asked with a smile. " No Abi, I decided to call it a early night, I've got to get some rest." He said, shaking his head. Can laughed, " You are living a life thats dangerous, so be careful." He exclaimed. Emre slapped Can on the back, " How was your night, did you charm the pants off her parents." Or did they kick you out at first glance." He said, dying to know the details. Can smiled, " It all went well, I was invited back, so I guess I made an impression." He exclaimed proudly. Emre got them a drink and sat down on the sofa, " Listen Abi, you need to think about this before you jump in feet first." I know she's a beautiful girl, but you've have them before and you didn't talk about long term commitment." What's so special about Sanem." He asked, taking a long look at his brother. Can smiled, looking at the floor, " Emre, she's one of a kind, she makes me feel different, so alive and full.  I can't get her out of my mind, even when I try, she always there." He told him, with the tears building up in his eyes. " I have to see her, if I don't, I start to panic inside, like I've lost her. She has ahold of me, and I'm not about to let go." Emre had never seen his brother like this before, so vulnerable to someone else. He was usually strong and totally independent, choosing his life alone. But he could see the change in him, it wasn't all about himself now, this woman had entered his heart and claimed it. He envied him for finding the person that belonged to him, he wished he could. 

" So, are you going to pop the question, Emre asked,  Or are you just going to play house with her for a while." Can shot a look at him letting him know he was about to cross the line, " Yes, marriage is what I have in mind, Emre, and be careful how you speak about her, she is a respectable woman, and you will refer to her as such." He said, his eyes glowing like dark coal. Emre threw up his hands, " Sorry Abi, I didn't mean anything by that, it was just a joke." He pleaded, knowing better than to push him on the matter. Can relaxed, " I need to call dad and let him know what's going on, and find out when he's coming home." He stated, anxious to tell his dad. He needed to know when his dad planned on returning so he could plan the proposal. It had to be soon, but having his dads blessing was very important. As Can told Emre his plans, Emre asked, " What about mom, are you going to call her?" Just the mention of her name could pull his mood down, " No, I'm not Emre, and your not going to either, she has nothing to do with this." He demanded, squinting his eyes to glare at Emre. " I mean it , don't call her and tell her anything about me." Can shouted. " She lost the right to know my business a long time ago."Emre promised he wouldn't tell her be he knew she would probably find out anyway. After Can calmed down, he made the call to his dad, " Father, how are you, are you well?" He asked, so glad to hear his dad voice. " Can, so glad to hear your voice, yes I'm well." He replied, letting his voice carry the joy he was feeling. " I have missed you my son, more than you know. How's the agency doing, are you holding it together." Aziz asked. Can laughed, " Yes dad, the agency is fine, Deren and Emre see to that." He stated, looking at Emre and giving him a wink. Emre rolled his eyes at the remark, he knew his dad never had much confidence in him running the agency, that's why Can was there. " What's up Can, you must have a reason to call, is there a problem." His dad asked. Can cleared his throat, " No, not a problem,.....just an announcement, something I need to tell you and ask you." Can spouted, his voice nervous and excited and this same time.

Aziz's was curious to say the least, this was not at all like his son. He had always been a self sufficient man, not needing much advice or validation for his actions. But he needed to ask him something.....must be important. " I'm listening son, what is it." He said. " Dad, I have met someone here at the office, and I.........uhh....well, I have fell in love with her." He sputtered, letting it spill out of his mouth all at once. Emre watched, amused at seeing his older brother in such a state, stuttering and fidgety, like a teenager with his first date. He put his hand over his mouth to keep Can from seeing him laughing. His dad gasped, " What, did you say you are in love with someone at the office?" He shouted, his heart did a leap in his chest. He had longed for this to happen, but he thought it would be with Polen. Can took a deep breath, " Yes dad, I'm in love,"  he said, letting the sound of those words register in his mind. He smiled the biggest smile he had ever had, " I want to ask her to marry me, but I want you to be here when I do." He spurted, his feeling of love for her covering him like a wave from the sea. His eyes filled with tears,......he was happy...for the first time in his life...he was happy.

His father heard the love in his voice. She must be special, for him to fall so fast,  Aziz thought, his heart full of happiness for his son. " My son, I wouldn't miss it for the world, I can be home anytime you want me to be." He assured him, still in shock at the news. Can was elated, " Well, I see no reason to wait, so I'm thinking about, maybe, Saturday." He said, with confidence. " Will be able to get here my then." He asked. His dad took a breath, " If that's what you want, then I can get a flight out tomorrow,  you're sure, no doubts." He asked. 

" Yes dad, I'm sure. I've never been more sure of anything in my life. Trust me, I'm just as shocked as you are about it, but I have no doubts.....no doubts at all....
