Uncertain Unity Can/Sanem

⚘Chapter-Twenty Two⚘

Ayhan and Guliz were waiting at the landing for her and the three of them went out hand in hand.

Can was in the kitchen with his Anne cutting some salad. Selin tayze had come in a few minutes before.

"How's Sanem, Selin." His Anne had asked her.

"She's been resting for the day. The girls are on their way. I heard about the incident." She said looking Can's way.

"Selin teyze....I saved her life...why can't anyone see that." Can said.

"Oh love we do...but what about after." She told him.

"Oh God why can't anyone keep their mouths shut...."

"Hey boy....watch your mouth...before I land one on you." Anne said.

Can smiled...walking over to her. "Come on Anne...I'll give you a free hit." He said mockingly....knowing full well she would hurt herself before he felt a twinge of pain. Before he knew it she had hold of his ear...twisting it.

"Oww...Anne let go...I'm not ten." He said winching in pain

"Well act your age then." His teyze said letting go.

At this point the rest if the family came in. Ali and Sahar came with their family. But still the girls were no where to be seen.

After a few minutes he saw her....she was like a breath of fresh air....she walked with a crowd....but all he could see was her. His Anne saw him staring at her and came over to stand behind him.

"Make sure you appoligise." Teyze said in his ear.

He took a step towards her....but stoped in his tracks as Omer came up behind her. Putting his arm around her shoulders.

His hands turned into fists at his side...he didn't know what came over him. He didn't know what to do...just standing there.

They came to where he stood. "Abi this is Ayhan....my fiancee." CeyCey told him.

"Hmm....it's nice to neet you Ayhan." He nodded...not knowing whether or not he should shake hands....and if he shook hands with Ayhan he would also have to with Sanem. He didn't trust himself. So it was better to be safe he thought.

"Abi...this is my fiancee Sanem. I didn't get a chance to thank you eairler. So thank you for helping her out."

Can turned to face her...not really looking at him she said hello...he said it back and mummbled some sort of apology.

Dinner was an ordeal the seating arrangements had Can and Sanem sitting opposite each other....and Sanem next to Omer. The bride and groom to be...Ali and Sahar were both welcomed.

A few times Can had tried to catch Sanems eye....but she made sure not to look in his direction. She was in engaged in conversation with a few people and succeeded in avoiding him altogethet. He kicked her under the table to get her attention, but she was adiment not to look at him.

'Oh...is that how you want to play it' He thought....'well two can play that game'.

"Hmm...Sanem can you pass me the salt please." He asked her.

"Yes of course." She said handing over the salt pot. He reached out to take hold of it. In the process he held onto her fingers. Everyone else was deep in conversation....so didn't notice what was going on. His touch causing a electrical current through her body.
