Burcu looked towards her. Melisa Yilmaz instantly went near that women. She gave her a warm smile. That women instantly hugged Melisa Yilmaz. Then she released Melisa from her hug. She looked towards Burcu with questioning look. Burcu was standing on her place. That women said out, “ Is she your daughter Burcu?” Melisa nodded her head. Melisa said with smile, “ Yes, she is my daughter Burcu.” That middle aged women said out, “ When she came back?” Melisa said out, “ Last month. [Melisa looked at Burcu. Then she said out] Come here Burcu.” Burcu instantly went towards her mother and that women. Melisa said out, “ Burcu, she is Ms. Ayse. She is my friend. And she is my regular customer.” Burcu instantly said with smile, “ Hello, Ayse aunty.” Ms. Ayse said with smile, “ Hello, my child. I heard about you from your mother. Melisa, your daughter is really beautiful. If I had a son I would ask her hand for my son.” Burcu was feeling shy because of her words. She smiled shyly. Melisa said out, “ Really? That’s why you don’t have any son Ayse. By the way, when you came back from your daughter's house?” Ayse said out, “ Two days ago. Now I came here to see you and buy some cake.”

Burcu's nephew Aslan Orhan was taking bath. Burcu was helping him. Suddenly Aslan started sprinkling water on Burcu. Burcu told him to stop. But that little boy didn’t stop. He was laughing and sprinkling water on her. Burcu was wearing a light blue colour long t-shirt and a long skirt. Her clothes became wet because of water. She yelled out to stop Aslan. Aslan stopped sprinkling water on her. He gulped down. He felt afraid because of Burcu's angry face. Maybe Burcu would scold him! Burcu said out, “ What you did Aslan? I became drench! Oh god!” Aslan Orhan said with making face, “ Sorry, aunty.” Burcu said with wide smile, “ Now I got you. Stop your naughtiness Aslan!” Aslan said out with smile, “ Thanks God! You aren’t angry on me? [Burcu shook her head in negative.] I thought you would scold me. I just wanted to do fun with you aunty. You know what aunty, you are the best aunty.” Burcu said out, “ Yea, I know that. Now let's go. You have to mope your body. Otherwise you would catch cold.” Aslan nodded his head with smile.

Burcu was sitting inside the lounge room with her mother. It was night time. Aslan was sleeping. Melisa Yilmaz said out, “ What is your future plan Burcu? It’s already more than one month. Do you want to do any job?” Burcu said out, “ I am still confused mom. I just want to spend sometime with you and Aslan. I missed you and him so much. Don’t worry mom! Soon I will find a job. I am thinking about to find a decent job. I am going to apply for few jobs. Let's see what happen. I know it’s hard for you to run our family from your small baking shop. Now I am here. Your daughter’s education background is good. Even she worked in a good company in London for 1 and half years. So, don't worry. I will get a good job.” Melisa released a deep breath. She said out, “ Your father isn’t here with us. That’s why we are facing difficulties.” Burcu said with sad tone, “ I know that mom. You spent your all savings only because of me. You sent me London for my graduation. You wanted to do your best for my life. I know mom, you love me so much. I also love you so much mom. Thanks for everything mom.” Tears started falling from Melisa's eyes. Melisa kept her hand on Burcu's hand. Melisa said out, “ Burcu, my daughter. I love you.” Burcu wiped her mother's tear. She said out, “ Mom, I know you were feeling alone here. But now I am here. You aren’t alone mom. We have to take care of Aslan. He needs good education. I will make him a good person. He will be a good person in future.” Melisa nodded her head.

It was 1:15 p.m. Burcu was waiting for Aslan. She was waiting outside of his school. Suddenly she noticed that Aslan was coming towards her. Burcu looked at him with smile. Aslan stood in front of her. He was looking upset. Burcu said with questioning tone, “ Aslan, did something happen? Are you upset?” Aslan said out, “ Some boys bullied me. Even one of them pushed me on the floor. They hurt me aunty.” Burcu said out with disbelief tone, “ What?” Aslan instantly showed his both hand. There was some marks on his both hand. Burcu observed his both hand. She was feeling so anger. But she controlled her anger. Burcu said out, “ Aslan, did you do anything to them? Why they bullied you?” Aslan said out, “ Aunty, I didn’t do anything. They were teasing me. They said to me that I am orphan. They were telling me that I don’t have mother and father. Aunty, why mom left me? Why she died aunty? Where is my dad? Why he left me? I am orphan aunty.” Burcu’s eyes filled up with tear. She controlled her emotion. She bend down on her knees. Tears was falling from Aslan's eyes. Burcu wiped his tears. She said out, “ You aren’t orphan. You have me and your granny. We love you so much. One day, your dad will come for you. Now he isn’t here. He is in abroad because of his work.” Aslan said out, “ Why he doesn’t talk with me aunty? You were also in abroad. You always called granny. You talked with her and me. You even did video calls. Last year, granny and I went to London to see you. We did lot of fun in London. Why he doesn’t call me aunty? He doesn’t love me?” Burcu said out, “ Your dad loves you Aslan. We already told you, he is working in a remote area. There he couldn’t use mobile phone. Because mobile's network is unavailable there. That’s why he couldn’t call you Aslan. Soon he will come here to see you.”

Aslan was sitting on a couch. He was sitting inside the lounge room. Few moments ago, Burcu and Aslan came back from Aslan's school. Burcu went near Aslan and bend down on her knees. Burcu said out, “ Aslan, I know you want to talk with your father. But we couldn’t do anything. Trust me Aslan, soon he will come here to see you.” Aslan said out, “ Aunty, tomorrow can you take me to my mom’s grave? I miss her so much.” Tears started falling from Aslan’s eyes. Burcu instantly hugged him. Aslan also hold his aunty tightly. Burcu's eyes filled up with tears. Tears started falling from her eyes. She wiped her tears. Then she released Aslan from her hug. She wiped his tears. Burcu said out, “ Tomorrow I will take you there. I know you miss her so much. I also miss her. She was the best sister.” Burcu hold Aslan’s both hand. Then she noticed the marks on his both hand. She kissed on his both hand where he got hurt. She said out, “ Are you feeling pain now? [Aslan shook his head in negative.] I kissed on your hands, soon your all pain will be gone. Tomorrow, I will talk with your class teacher. I will complain about those boys. Then they will not tease you. Are you feeling okay now?” Aslan nodded his head. Burcu kissed on his both palm. Aslan said out, “ Aunty, do you love me?” Burcu nodded her head. She said out, “ I love you. I love you so much, my dear Aslan.” Aslan smiled widely because of Burcu's words.

That man was talking on his phone. He was busy in his talking. Suddenly Burcu looked up. Today the sun was shining brightly. Burcu noticed that a little boy whose age might be 4 to 5 was playing with flower's vase. There were few flower's vase on the roof top of that coffee shop. That little boy pushed a flower vase towards the ground. Burcu's mouth opened because of shock. That flower vase was about to fall on that middle aged man.

That vase broken into pieces. He would die or became wounded if that flower vase fell on him. That flower vase was filled up with soil. There were few people. They instantly went towards Burcu and that man.

Burcu was talking with her best friend Mary inside a coffee shop. Mary said out, “ Oh god! You are such a bravo! How you saved that old man?” Burcu instantly said out, “ God saved him. Now just stop your talking. Why you called me to come here? You told to me that it was urgent. We could talk at our home or your home.” Mary said with irritating tone, “ I just wanted to talk with you here. This is my favourite coffee's place. And you know that. They could only make delicious coffee.” Burcu shook her head. She said out, “ What nonsense! You just called me to come here to accompany you?” Mary said, “ Yea, I called you to come here to accompany me. I was missing our old time. We were so happy in our school days. We did lot of fun in our school days.” Burcu nodded her head. She said out with smile, “ I also miss those days. You were such a mischievous girl!”
