Ayden 49.IN MY ROOM
A FEW YEARS AGO NOTTINGHAM It was 11 PM when she heard the knock on her window. She was so sure she heard that wrong. But the knock came again. She wore her sweater and her night dress and slowly walked towards the window. "Who is there?" She shouted. The first thought is to call her dad. But it hurts her pride to do that. If she had a serial killer behind that closed window, her father would still blame her. She knew that for sure. The knock came again, making her whole body rigid. "Just open the damn door, Surgeon. It's freezing outside." Came a sharp sound from the other end. Her body reacted to the sound even before she could process it. She quickly opened her windows and let the hanging Jayden climb inside. "What are you doing here?" She asked, running back to double-check the door lock. "Wow..there's a lot of pink here." He commented, scanning through her room. She rested her hands on her hips, giving h
Ayden 50. WE DO FIT
PRESENT DAY AYLA "Marmara Deniz (Sea of Marmara)" I whispered. He didn't say anything but stared like he did till now, blankly. "That's the color of your eye," I said. I didn't notice any movement in his face or his eyes, especially his eyes. But something about the way he looked at me changed like he finally grasped the situation. Shit! The situation. In a hurry to escape, I tried to fall back. He held me by the waist again and pulled me to him so that I wouldn't fall off the couch. Now we are closer than before, my hand clutching his shirt, and his heart, beating fast beneath them. Once again, silence engulfed us. We simply stared at each other without saying a word. I somehow managed to find the courage to look at him again. His gaze slowly traveled down to my lips. If he was gonna kiss me right now, I'll not protest. Of course, I will freak out. But I'll save that for later. But he is doing nothing but simply sta
Ayden 51. NO ONE KNOWS
A FEW YEARS AGONOTTINGHAM "I am not getting it. Why would you meet Nathaniel?" Mason asked for the tenth time. "I didn't meet him. He came to me." "He did because..." "He is Jack's friend. They always come to the house." "The house you live in?" "Yes," She replied, looking exasperated. "And Jack lives at your place because....." "He is my step-brother. And I live at their place." She corrected. "By Jack, you mean.." "Jack Dawson." "Son of..." "Noah Dawson." "Who is your ..." "Yes," She nodded her head, agreeing with him. "My biological father. Is that a problem?" "It is," Mason exclaimed. "You didn't know that Dawsons and Knights are at war since forever?" She shook her head in confusion. "I knew that Jayden and Jack have some misunderstanding, perhaps?" Mason burst into laughter in a sardonic way that made Ayla confused to a whole different level. When Jayden knew th
Ayden 52. TO MY HOUSE
PRESENT DAYAYLA "One minute, I was fine. The other minute, I could feel the tears rushing down my pillow. It hurts when I try to clench my jaw or grind my teeth. The left part of my face hurts, you know, from my head to ear, ear to teeth. 'It's stress,' Blake would say. But it doesn't hurt any less. "I have experienced this kind of pain many times. I would take a pill, and it would go away. But today, when I was lying in my room alone and staring at the ceiling, I wonder, how long I will have to take the pills to make the pain go away. How long I will have to do it alone? "I took out my phone. I found no one, absolutely no one to talk to. I was too angry to talk to Blake. I can't believe he spread a rumour that I got pregnant when my mom died. I can't believe I actually become pregnant at the end. Quinn will be asleep. I am not close to Daisy and Steph to disturb them in the middle of the night. And Yeona has already done a lot for me. "Suddenly, as if
Ayden 53. IN HIS HOUSE
"Why would I go to your house?" I asked him, confused. He shrugged, looking at the traffic before us. "The rain has already stopped." He let the car window down and looked out. "The sky is clear. I think we both need a distraction." "So?" I asked him. "Why don't we go and enjoy the view?" He asked. "What view?" I asked him in return. "Jupiter and his four moons?" "Jupiter!" I exclaimed. "We can see its moons too?" I asked him in wonder. "I have a 16-inch telescope. So I figured you might wanna see it. Why? is that a no to you?" He asked me. Something tells me that he knew the answer. "No, I mean, yes. Evet, it's a big yes to me. I am just confused why you wanted to do that." I told him. "Is I just wanted to not good enough reason?" He questioned, raising his eyebrow. "It is. But you gain nothing out of it." I answered. He smiled at my sentence. "Why do we always have to gain something?" He questioned just like Kemal did ear
Ayden 54. MAKE YOU MINE
AYLA "You did what?" Quinn asked me for the second time. "I went to his house," I told her slowly, looking towards the living room. "To?" "Well, if you ask me why exactly I had gone, I would say for Jupiter." I heard her sigh so loudly that I am sure, she is trying to control her anger. "Even I haven't seen Jupiter, Ayla. Most of the world's population haven't seen that fucking planet, and they are surviving." She yelled from the other end of the line. "You don't understand. It is a one-time opportunity for me." I tried to explain. "Seriously, Ayla? You followed a guy, who is your forgotten ex, to a house so far away that you even doubt there's a single soul in the two kilometres radius to see a fucking planet without informing any of us! Is that what you are telling me right now?" I released a heavy breath. I shouldn't have lifted her call at all. "It sounds worse when you put it like that," I said slowly. "Because it is worse
Ayden 55. HE IS IN CHARGE
AYLA Quinn would call it courage. Yeona would call it fate. And I'll say, it is madness. What the hell am I even thinking of asking my boss to kiss me? That's not even the worse part. The worse part is I'm not afraid or embarrassed like I used to be. I'm getting comfortable around him. "What?" He asked me, tilting his head up a little. He was still lying on the matter while I sat beside him with the blanket wrapped around my body. "What?" I asked in turn. "You are smiling to yourself." "Because I don't know what else to do." "What do you mean?" He questioned, confused. I probably can't tell what I was running through my head right now. So I told him what I thought earlier. "It's hard to explain. I may regret saying this but I'll tell you. Yesterday I felt so lonely. I kept staring at my phone as if it would somehow become a human being. Today, I just remembered that I left my phone downstairs, and Quinn will probably curse me for not picking up her call.
Ayden 56. UP IN THE AIR
AYLA My phone is still in my hand. And I don't know whether I'm trying to hold onto or drop it. One of my hands clutched his shirt as if my life depended on it, and the other hand held my phone near his collar. I've kissed men before. Men kissed me before. Hell, even Jayden kissed me before but not like this. He was soft outside that pub. He was gentle. But now, this kiss is everything but gentle. His mouth goes as deep as it could but not even once did he pull back. Not even once did he back off, not even for a second breath. I never knew that someone could be so desperate to kiss me that they even forget breathing. It all happened in a blink of an eye. I was hesitant that Mason was watching us. But never knew when did I stop caring and went with the flow. It's all like magic. The sad thing about those magical moments is they always end. When he pulled back, it took me good five minutes to realise that Mason wasn't there. And my boss didn't even mind checking on him like I
