While Zeynep was at the mercy of bandits, Süleyman Şah felt apprehensive.
"Süleyman! Why isn't my daughter here yet?" Hayme Ana asked worriedly.
"İnsha Allah, soon she will be here, Hayme. And if you are worried that she had been raided, then do not worry, the alps are there and my daughter is an outstanding fighter too as she learnt from her brothers." Replied Süleyman Şah as he patted his wife on her shoulder
"I guess you are right. If there's no more work left then I will be off to bed" stated Hayme, still with an obvious worry ringing in her voice.
"Of course, you are excused . İnsha Allah, Zeynep will come faster if you go sleep" encouraged Süleyman Şah
Hayme Ana nodded and left.
"May I come in, my Bey?" A deep voice asked.
"Come in Ertuğrul!"
"What is wrong with Ana? Her eyes were swelled with tears when I crosses paths with her as i came in. Also, is there any news of my dear sister Zeynep?"Ertuğrul anxiously asked
"Your mother's crying already? Aah my dear Hayme... And no my son, there is no news of your sister." Süleyman shook his head

"Abdurrahman Alp! Check who is in front of my marquee!" Ordered Süleyman Şah
Abdurrahman Alp done as he was ordered and replied "There is nobody there, Bey"
"Must of been the wind. May Allah give us a good ending. With your permission, baba" Ertuğrul said, placing his hand on his heart.
Suleyman Şah nodded and went to his room.
