Chapter 6

Can was not happy that he was interrupted by Polen's phone call. He was enjoying just talking with Sanem and getting to know her.

CAN: "hello Polen"

POLEN: " Can, my love, I'm coming to Africa to see you. I miss you."

CAN: "I'm not there Polen, the shoot was canceled for this week, it will probably be rescheduled in two weeks from now."when I'm finished I will fly to London, to speak to the organizers for my pictures of the magazine and I will come and see you."

POLEN: "Can, I really miss you, I want to see you sooner"

CAN: "I'm sorry Polen, but I will be working with my dad till I'm ready to leave."

POLEN: "Can, I miss you in my bed, please come sooner. I want to feel you all night."

CAN: "Polen, I'm sorry, I can't, my father is busy and I have my own work to do too. I'll see you when I come to London." Polen was very disappointed, she's not happy. She really wants to be with him.

POLEN: "okay, I'm clearing my schedule and I'm coming with you on the shoot."

CAN: "Polen, what are you going to do in the jungle with wild animals!"

POLEN: "I will stay at the hotel and wait for you"

CAN: "I'm not staying in a hotel I'm staying in a little hut so you can stay in London and I'll see you when I get there." She was very unhappy.

POLEN: "okay Can, just think about what I could be doing to you and you to me." Can was getting frustrated, the only person he could think of doing things to right now is to Sanem. He needs to figure out something with Polen, and it's not going to be easy. he doesn't want to be mean to her because they've been together for a long time. But they would only see each other two three times a year at the most. he wants to break it to her gently, and hopefully she'll understand that they're done. She really should understand, because we had an agreement. But obviously she has other ideas, she wants more.

CAN: "listen Polen, I will see you soon, okay, I have to go I have some work to do. See you when I get back from Africa , take care goodbye."

Polen was pissed, he's really brushing her off. Did he meet someone else. We always had an open relationship, but no one ever compared to Can. I'm not worried, once he sees me again we will be fine.

Can went back outside and saw Sanem sleeping next to Bella, what a beautiful site even when she's sleeping, she's beautiful, and her dress is rolled up and you can see her thighs beautiful I'd like to rub those thighs. Ah Sanem what are you doing to me.

Sanem started waking up, and she noticed Can looking at her. He started walking towards her.

CAN: "sorry for the interruption."

SANEM: "that's ok, I got a little nap in with Bella, isn't she just the sweetest thing when she's sleeping."

Can just stared at Sanem and said " yes, she is very sweet." Of course Sanem was clueless.

Bella started waking up and Can went over to her and picked her up.

CAN: "Bell, would you like me to order some pizza are you hungry?" She gave him this huge smile and started clapping her hands and says " pizza yey!!! And she says " ice cream chocolate"

CAN: " anything for you my little princess" and she hugs him again. Sanem starts giggling

SANEM: "I think I'm starting to get a little bit jealous. I miss Bella's hugs today. It seems that you're getting all the hugs today Can bey, You're very popular with Bella."

CAN: " first it's Can, not Can bey, and second she's so sweet how can I resist!"

Sanem just smiled. She could just picture him with his own kids. He would be a great father.

Can called and ordered the pizza and he ran out quickly to get the chocolate ice cream that Bella wanted.

The three of them had a great time together, Bella did a great job with her pizza and so did Sanem, and they all love the chocolate ice cream, it seems that the chocolate ice cream is their favorite. Can loved watching Sanem eat, where does she even put it. Every girl he goes out with either eats salads or they are detoxing. Polen just picks at her food." But Sanem, she is different in every way.

CAN: "so sanem, where did you grow up?" She Was a little embarrassed to tell him, being that he lives in this castle as Bella would say, but she was proud of where she grew up.

SANEM: " Actually I grew up in a Mahalle not too far from here. Nothing like this of course, but it was a great community, the neighborhood always takes care of their own. After my parents died, people were taking care of us, cooking for us, helping us clean, helping us get over our sorrow. Our house was never empty. People were always coming in and out so we wouldn't be alone. Even when my aunt and uncle moved into the house, they were always helping them to. Plus my aunt is a great cook, and she loves to cook with the neighborhood women they all compare their dishes and they argue over which one is better. It's actually very funny because my aunt is very proud of her cooking. No one cooks better than Mevcabi. ( And she started laughing) The only bad thing is the gossip. Especially for young single girls. It could be brutal so we have to watch every step that we make because once your name is ruined, it's ruined but otherwise it's the best place to live. People are so caring and giving with what little they have I wouldn't change where I grew up for anything.

CAN: "that's so nice Sanem, I've traveled a lot, and stayed in communities like that, and I have to tell you, I agree with you. People are more welcoming and helpful."

SANEM: "yes, I have a lot of good memories there."but now it's time to move on I guess. I'm in college, I have one more year left, and I'm writing a book."

CAN: "that's great Sanem!! What are you studying?"

SANEM: "creative writing, and marketing, one more year and I'm done, I can't wait to get a real job. Money hasn't been easy, at the club I was making great tips, but you saw what happened, it was like that almost every night. It wasn't worth it, I'd rather be poor. My last night was the worst, if you weren't there (she started tearing) he grabs her hand.) he probably would of raped me, he was too strong for me, Can, I couldn't get him off of me.  And you know my boss actually owes me two weeks pay, but I don't want to go back by myself. The owner is a jerk, he can have it.

CAN: "Sanem, I will go with to get your money, don't worry no one will hurt you. he owes it to you, and you're going to get it.  And that night my friend Metin who is an attorney and a damn good one,  had a little talk with him. Don't worry he won't hurt you any more or any other employee's." Sanem looked at Can and gave him the sweetest smile.

SANEM: "thank you." Little Bella was looking up at both of them and smiling. She gets up and hugs both of them and gives them a kiss on the cheek, and Can started tickling her, she couldn't stop laughing.  They sat to watch a movie, and gave Bella some more chocolate ice cream.

CAN: "and your book, what's that about?"

SANEM: "about my life in the Mahalle, I'm not in a hurry to finish it, I'm taking my time. I kind of want it to be a comedy, believe me I have a lot of stories to tell, I can probably write five books with Mahalle stories."

CAN: "and you remember all of them?"

SANEM: "I have a photographic memory, I remember everything I read and see, trust me it comes in handy with my classes."

CAN: "wow, the great, very interesting, do things ever get confusing?"

SANEM: "No, not really, my brain kinda sorts things out for me."

This girl is incredible, she's smart beautiful and humble. They both turned around and looked at Bella and she was covered in chocolate ice cream, they all started laughing.

SANEM: "Bella, sweetie how did you get all that chocolate all over your face and your hair did you just spill the ice cream over your head?"

Bella just kept giggling. She was so sweet.

" ok Bell, let's go give you a bath and put you pajamas on because I have to take you back soon."

CAN: "can I help, I'm really enjoying my time with Bella." Of course Bella grabs Can by his hand and takes him inside with her. She was splashing all over the place Sanem and Can were more wet than she was. But they were having fun with her.

Can grabbed a towel and wrapped Bella in it, he looked at Sanem's shirt and it was soaked, and you could see right through it, he shifted his eyes so she wouldn't notice him looking, but he liked what he saw. Sanem noticed his muscles through his wet shirt, she definitely liked what she saw. She was getting all hot.

They got Bella dressed and they went and changed their shirts too.

CAN: "what time does she have to be back?"

SANEM: "I told them, I would have her back around seven, seven thirty, so this way I can put her to bed by eight."

CAN: "okay, we have some time let's watch the rest of the movie with her, And then we can drive her back together."

SANEM: " okay, Bella, do you want to finish watching the movie?"

Of course she answered with a yes. The three of them sat on the couch together, with Bella in the middle. Bella was loving it, she was holding both of their hands and smiling.
