The sun came up some time ago. The district was slowly awakening to life, Defne was on its feet for a long time.

The twenty-five-year-old girl was still sitting dressed in pajamas at the table in the garden of her family home, surrounded by flowers. Lilies, crocuses and tulips, among others, grew there. She had a laptop in front of her, which was mainly a tool for work. The girl read her well known text for the last time and then breathed a sigh of relief when she sent her last email to the editorial office. She worked there since she graduated.

That day she started a new phase in her life. Feeling overwhelmed by the monotonous everyday life, she decided to change something. Following the advice of her cousin, she decided to change her environment and rethink her life, while taking up a completely different job. That is why she left the editorial office, even though the editor-in-chief did not want to accept her resignation. The texts that came out of Defne's pen were really good and were appreciated by readers. That is why the editor-in-chief with great regret signed the documents that the girl submitted to the office.

Defne found an interesting offer, which was kitchen help in one of the restaurants in Bodrum.

Straightening up on her chair, she reached for a cup of plain black tea. She leaned because the drink she had prepared was already cold and she liked to drink only hot tea. She would also get away with the summer one, but that was the last resort.

Then she realized how late it was. She quickly collected things from the table, referring them to her room.

There was order, and everything in the room had its place. This made it easy for Defne to find various objects.

The care for order was due to her character. She was not a person who cared too much about cleanliness. On the contrary, it often happened to her to drop her clothes on the back of a chair or leave dishes. The girl liked to have everything tidy.

- Good morning, Mom! - She kissed her parent on the cheek.

A woman with brown, curly hair was still wearing a nightgown. She was brought to the kitchen by the smell of fresh bread. She was not at all surprised by the sight of her daughter shaking in the room in the early morning. She was accustomed to not wearing curly pajamas until noon and gets up much earlier than she and her husband, if only free.

- You are free today, you could sleep longer - she said, following her daughter who was going out to the garden with freshly brewed tea in the kettle. Meals outdoors were a tradition in her home, to which she was very accustomed. Since childhood, when it was warm and sunny, Mom would set the table outside. - In Bodrum you will get up very early every day. It is not the same as working in the editorial office.

- That is why I am very happy to go there! - She said joyfully. Almost in jumps she returned to the kitchen for the rest of the prepared products.

During the first meal, Father Defne returned home. He was a grey man with a nice face and a beer belly. He worked as a guard in one of the richer districts in Istanbul.

Later Defne looked through the contents of her suitcase once again. She had to be sure that she hadn't forgotten anything, hooking every point on the list one by one. Defne was second to none in planning many things. She liked taking notes, making plans and then implementing them. She had a head full of ideas, and since these often came to her head at the least appropriate time, she carried a notebook with her, where she wrote everything down.

It was an ordinary notebook, divided into several ornamental tabs. Among other things, there was room for the girl's dreams and goals. The list was constantly updated by her. Apart from them, there were various interesting words and quotations that she heard or read somewhere in books. She liked to collect them.
