City Y Airport
''That was a hearty breakfast. Thank you for sharing your breakfast with me, Ozge''
''You are welcome''
Let's go''
''Mm'' Ozge stood up from the bench. She picked the bowls and accidentally brushed her fingers against Ferit who was also trying to pick some of the bowls. They both paused for a moment and Ozge turned away, leaving the bowls to Ferit.
''The bowls might become usable if we leave them here''
''We can't send them inside either. How about we just leave them in the car. When we come, I can just wash them''
''That won't do. Wait here'' Ferit said and picked the bowls. He rushed to a restaurant across the street. Ozge watched him with a curious gaze. She leaned against the car and smiled.
''You seem to be having a lot of fun for ex-convict?''
Ozge's face changed when she turned and saw the lady in front of her. She was holding a small blue luggage in her right hand.
''Hi, Ozge, we are finally having the chance to meet one on one again'' Demit said and her lips curved up in a mocking shape.
''Does Ferit know the reason why you went to prison?'' Demit chuckled and continued, 'did you forget so easily that you signed a contract?''
''Does Ferit know the reason why you went to prison?'' Demit chuckled and continued, ''did you forget so easily that you signed a contract?''
''So what?'' Ozge looked at Demit with a daring gaze.
''What? So what?'' Demit was shocked.
''I am under a contract. I know but I am not going against what it says so what is it with you?''
''Hey! You must have forgotten so early but Ozge, I made you into what you are. I turned you into a famous doctor…''
''And you took it away too, five years ago. Do you think I do not know that you were the one who manipulated the MRI report of the daughter of the Minister that had me almost dispelled? Demit, I am doing nothing wrong. I am going on a business trip with Mr. Almendez and that's it''
''You didn't look like that's it. Don't tell me you still can't forget it even after five years? Ozge, remember the reason why you couldn't stay with Ferit until the day he opened his eyes. I hope you remember very well the contract binding you and don't have funny ideas just because Amanda fancies you. I can still destroy you anytime I want''
''Anytime you want? Under whose watch? With whose permission, Demit, are you threatening the mother of my daughter?'' Ferit walked to them. He had heard just the latter part of Demit's words.
''Ferit, it's not what you think. Dr. Ozge and I were just having a little chat'' Demit's voice quivered as she spoke.
''I don't care about your little chat. I just saw and heard you threatening my employer and the mother of my daughter. Ozge, we should get going before we miss our flight'' Ferit opened the backdoor and brought out their two luggage. He placed the bowls inside before he pulled their luggage away while Ozge followed suit.
Watching them leave, Demit sighed and chuckled sarcastically.
…..
After boarding the plane, Ozge realized that their seats were just together. They both sat down and Ozge turned to look at Ferit while he was doing something on his tablet.
''This is strange. Why is he not asking me any questions about Demit? Isn't he curious at all? He is really…''
''I know I'm good looking but you don't have to look at me like that, Ozge. I will get distracted'' Ferit lifted his eyes, meeting her gaze.
Ozge's face turned red and she turned away at once.
''Also, I won't ask you what your deal is with Demit. I've come to know something about you. You will never tell me anything that is going on, so I will just find it out myself''
Ozge turned to look at him when she heard him say that. She held his gaze for a while until they both turned when they heard someone's voice.
''We meet again'' Demit said before she sat opposite Ferit.
''The plane is about to take off, everyone adjusts your seatbelts and do not move while the plane takes off. All phones should be turned off until after the plane has taken off''
The announcement came immediately after and Ferit turned to look at Ozge who was adjusting her seatbelt. He noticed she was sweating.
''Are you alright?'' Ferit asked.
''Mm, I just… I haven't been on a plane for a long time, I feel a little scared'' Ozge said and her fingers gripped the handle tightly.
Ferit looked at her and smiled. He found her actions cute. It was the first time she was showing any kind of vulnerability in front of him.
Ferit touched her hand and she turned to looked at him. ''I'm here, don't be afraid''
Demit's teeth gritted when she saw them. Her lips curved into an unpleasant arc as she looked at them. That was her place. She was the one who was supposed to be in that seat, next to Ferit.
The more Demit thought about it, the more she didn't understand. She had sacrificed five years of her life to be by Ferit's side. She had done so many things in order to be by his side, to get his attention but the sudden appearance of Ozge made everything go down the drain.
Demit had thought that, separating them five years ago and making Ozge sign the secrecy contract, things would be fine. She didn't expect that Ozge will return to Almendez Hospital and even meet with Ferit again.
Demit knew that even though Ferit didn't know who Ozge was, it was also just a matter of time before he found out that she is the woman he has being looking for.
Ferit was smart. There was no way he wouldn't find out about it. She had to act fast. She had to be calm and take Ozge out at all cost.
After the plane took off, Ozge opened her eyes. She saw Ferit sleeping soundly on his seat. Her gaze shifted to Demit who was already looking at her.
''Let's talk, Miss Ozge'' Demit stood up and went towards the washroom. Ozge stood up and covered Ferit with the quilt before going.
After they both left, Ferit's phone buzzed and he opened his eyes. He picked the tablet and opened his mail.
Inside the mail, there were a lot of pictures which included a accident site, the hospital, the Almendez family house and the police station.
Inside all the pictures, there was one familiar person. Ozge! She was in all the photos and they were also related to Ferit.
Another message came in afterwards.
''Boss, this is what I got from Miss Demit's computer. But there is one crypted file in it. I will need time to crack it open''
''No worries, take your time'' Ferit sent a reply before turning to look at the empty seat beside him.
''Let's see how long you continue to hide, Ozge Ausman. Let's see how long that goes!
….
When Ozge got to the washroom, Demit pushed her inside and locked the place before speaking.
''You really do have guts, Ozge. Are you not afraid of what will happen to you once you get involve with Ferit?''
''I am not the one getting involved with him and you know that. Miss Demit, I know very well what I should say and what I shouldn't say when I'm with the director. Also, don't ever bring up my time in jail if you want to threaten me. I do not regret what I did to Logan. It is not a secret''
''What's your deal with Amanda? I am Ferit's legal fiancée and would be the mother of Amanda when we get married. You should stay away from Amanda. Don't harbour any foolish thoughts just because the little girl likes you''
''I am not interested in the Director. Amanda likes me and I can't keep her from coming to me but don't worry. I won't be the one to come between you and the Director. You should focus on him and stop trying to sabotage me''
''Anyone inside? I want to use the washroom'' a voice came through and Ozge and Demit turned.
Demit looked at Ozge before opening the door first to leave. When she came out, she saw a young lady at the door. She didn't acknowledge the lady and simply walked away.
''I'm sorry, you can go in'' Ozge told the lady before going out.
….
Ferit changed back to his study page when he saw Ozge sitting down after returning from the washroom. He acted oblivious and continued to study the page in front of him.
Ozge sat down and looked at him. Her gaze shifted to the table and she looked at the disease control document Ferit was reading.
