Attracting a Heart-Captured Dragon
Chapter 13
Day after day passed, it had not been a week since I had last seen him.. How is his condition at the moment? What the hell is he doing? I wanted to ask Emre so badly, but I got back to this intention. Finally with the grace period that looks empty and saturating, I decided to go back to work in my last 3 months to be in this beautiful city. Brother Ozcan welcomed me and seemed to be able to read the heart of my arrival there without having to say much to him. Before long Mr. Mete came and gave me a warning not to let me resign myself back, all very warmly welcome me.
Seeing all this, it was hard to leave this city because it would miss them all so much. Dropped in embarrassment and without saying any more immediately headed for the staff room to change clothes, all my co-workers still greeted me very kindly, how lucky I am to be surrounded by good people like them.Restaurant that looks crowded on this day, as usual because knowing my turkish language is still not too fluent, as well, Mete Bey also told me to check the warehouse stock and fix the equipment that is lacking, until not aware of someone who approached me..
“ Today is off, but you work?”
“ EMRE?? You surprised me!!”
Almira who felt surprised by almost dropping an item
" What are you daydreaming about? Looks like my shoes are pretty loud on this wooden floor.."
" Nothing. Just too focused on working..How are you?"
Almira returned to tidying things up
“ News? I thought you heard it quite often from Lilian.”
“ Hhmm.. You're right too.. Did mom Farah approve of your relationship?”
“ Mama? When they met, I didn't know what to say.. Before long they immediately went to one of the beauty salons”
“ Good.. You clearly know Lilian is very caring for her body, right? So take it easy, Miss Farah is in good hands. Just be prepared, you have to set up more funds for him.”
Almira who gave a mischievous smile to Emre
“ Take it easy almira, I will try my best. I won't hurt your best friend”
“ Of course!! When did I ever say I doubted your ability?”
“ Nice flattery.. But on another topic, don't you want to ask me how it is?”
Emre switched the conversation while tidying up his clothes and leaning against the wall
“ What?”
“ You obviously know I mean”
“ Me... It's okay what.. It's better that he and I are like this.. Besides, I also finished doing important work for him right.”
“ Work? Honestly either me or all here don't see.... Forget that! Anne always told me to set a time to see you.. However, as your request, I did not do that”
“ Thank you.. I don't want bu Farah like putting gratitude to burden him”
“ Just as Lilian said. Now I understand what it means to say about you.. Maybe that's why it also makes abi like to keep your distance as well.. Like you did, right?”
“ What's the deal with Berguzar is done?”
Almira tried to divert the conversation
“ The woman always comes.. I don't know when I went home even to the office. My brother always refused. You know even that time he waited in front of his house all night”
“ At the moment for sure he is very injured.”
“ Yes.. But he was already able to control his feelings and himself.. His behavior is back to normal like never before.. He is more able to regulate his emotions and is not affected by his memories.”.
“ Thank goodness if so.”
“ You don't want to see him, even if only once?”
“What? Is she here? Isn't today not a date.”.
“ He still likes to come and sit aloof as usual, but this time he comes if only if feeling a little depressed”
“ So he's on..”
“ Yes.. You want to see him? Talk to him”
". . . . . . . . . . ."
" What are you waiting for? Go awayl.. I'm sure even Abi is waiting for you"
I subconsciously gave Emre a large bag of sugar without seeing if he was ready to hold it or let it fall to the floor.. Running out to the back porch with all my eyes looking at me was no longer ignored.. I don't know who saw me this time I don't care, I just follow my heart now trying to see it. As soon as it was explained, I can see again he sat alone with his daydream.. But this time I saw his gaze was no longer empty, even his body movements were completely different, sitting firmly as if showing he was ready for anything. His appearance had returned to what I usually see.. I saw it until my heart was satisfied and calm, but I still did not dare to step my foot towards it.. When pensive to look at him, suddenly one of the customers called me and I went back to work and undo my intention to meet him.
The restaurant this time closed more nights because the customers were very crowded. I don't feel the time to show at 23:30 pm when I finish my work.. Mete bey and ozcan hanim offered to drive me because the bus was no longer operating at this hour.. But I refused to see the condition of Aagha who is currently a little fever and chose to order a taxi or vehicle online.. When everyone came home, there was no taxi or online vehicle that received my pick-up request.. Is tonight very crowded, so the driver service is full? Feeling alone, I finally ventured to walk through the main road and re-book drivers online..
The time this time has shown at 12 pm more, how is this? Should I walk to the apartment? I decided to walk while paying attention to the phone if my driver's order arrived someone took it, but an unexpected incident happened to me. Too focused on looking at the phone, I walked towards a group of young men who seemed to look a little drunk. Seeing that, I immediately stopped and turned my body to avoid them. Suddenly arrived one of them as if calling, I finally ran somewhere just to avoid them. Their voices were getting closer in my ears, I tried to get faster to run but suddenly someone pulled my clothes from behind.
“ RELEASE!!"Almira who tried to pull her clothes using turkish
“ Beautiful girl..Where did you run? Do you want us to take you?"
Say one of the men
“ Let me go"
Almira began to feel frightened
“ Don't you want to have fun first?"
One of these four men came up to me, I bent his stomach until he fell into the street. Her friend who was holding my collar was currently feeling angry and violently pulling my hair.. Then came back the other one tried to strangle me, tried to fight I tried to hit but my hand was held very firmly, it hurt very much the man's grasp.. They slowly lowered me and my shirt was pulled until some buttons came off. I tried to close my body but the man I kicked hit me in the face so I slammed into the street. My mouth was bleeding and my cheek was very painful but tried to stand up, but one of them kicked me in the leg until I realized that my left leg was sprained so it was difficult for me to stand up and run. I tried to ask for help but no one helped me. Seeing me having trouble they approached me with crazy smiles on their faces.. Seeing them, I cried too.. One of the men pulled back my hair and tried to kiss me but I refused, feeling angry that my hand was pulled back firmly.. This time I could no longer fight them and it was as if my strength was running out..
“ Get your hands off that woman"
Say Serkan using Turkish language that runs with an aura of anger
“ Who are you? Did you come and have fun with us?"
“ This woman looks lonely and it seems like she is alone does not belong to anyone"
One of the men who pulled Almira's hand violently
“ What are you saying?"
Serik staring at the man getting sharper
“ I said does not belong to anyone!!"
“ MINE BR#NGS#K!!"
Hand over the running and throw a punch
What is serkan? Serkan's coming? She helping? I try to stay awake to see what happens.. And thank goodness it was him.. Serkan ran off the hand of the man who pulled my hair and hit him.. Hand it over to the four men, yet she did not need anyone's help at all. Feeling that I had to run away, I tried to move but when the three men fought back, one of the men came up to me and kicked me in the stomach until I found it difficult to breathe and pulled me. The pain that tormented me was so painful, it was dragged through the streets full of dirt and blood coming out of my mouth.. I tried to call Serkan, but somehow my voice could not come out at all. As I felt resigned and started to close my eyes, it felt like someone was trying to hold my body and lay me down slowly.. Then came the sound of a rowdy voice and the words to beg for forgiveness and forgiveness.. After this what will happen to me? Handed......
.............................
“ MIR.. MIRAA?? WAKE...!!”
“ Mira..? Lilian and I are here with you.”.
Said Kirey and Lilian who were worried about Almira's condition
“ Emre, why is almira still not awake?! Should we take him to the hospital?”
“ Relax lilian.. Last night you saw for yourself, a private doctor came here and treated the Almira.. We wait for”
“ Why did the wound get like this? Why should this happen to people?”
“ Sorry I'm late. I was just looking for him after you guys called me last night when I asked him”
Hand the one who lowered his head apologized
“ No.. Don't misunderstand me.. Our point is to be grateful you came”
“ Yes, Thank you for saving Almira.”
“ ALMIRA!! Serkan, what about him? Why are you quiet? LEAVE IT!!"
“ How can he be like this? It's all our fault for not delivering it"
Mete and Ozcan, who are feeling guilty and worried, speak Turkish
“ Then, why is he still unconscious?"
“ Let's see and wait a minute.be patient"
.........................
Where am I at the moment? How's condition? Why does my body hurt so much that it's hard for me to open my eyes.. Not only my hands and feet, my stomach hurts even more if it's just for breathing. Then, is anyone here? Why does it sound so crowded?
“ Mira..? Are you conscious? Can you hear me?”
“ Mira?? Mercifully.. Do you know, we're so worried about you?!”
Lilian and Kirey were helping Almira as if they wanted to get out of bed and sit down
" Aarrath..."
Almira holds her stomach
" WHAT ARE YOU DOING?? SHUT UP AND LIE DOWN!!"
“ I'm sorry.. What the hell's going on? Where am I?”
“ You were taken to the house Serkan to be treated, all night we waited for you to realize.”
“ Us?? Homehouse... Serkan?”
Almira was surprised and looked around
“ Yes.. Serkan also called his family's personal doctor to come here to treat you.. We came here after Emre picked up.. Mete Bay and Ozcan Hanim arrive.. But by morning his son seemed to be sick too, so they went home first”
“ It seems I am troubling a lot of people.. Then, Serkan, where is he?”
“ There is an important meeting that requires them to come, if it is finished they will be back here” soon
“ Mir, why didn't you contact one of us? Didn't you consider it?”
Said Lilian with annoyance
“ I don't want to trouble you guys.. And also because you guys will definitely ask Hammett or Emre for help to pick me up”
“ YES!! SURE AM!! That's what family is for.. You said that yourself!”
“ I'm sorry... I was scared too.. I'm sorry.”
Lilian and Kirey hugged me tightly.. The three of us cried together until we finally felt tired ourselves.. Starting to feel calm, Lilian and kirey went back to check my condition, I begged them to get me a glass, given my current condition and the infusion liquid that was still in my hands, it does not allow me to stand up and walk. After pleading with Lilian and kirey, they finally granted my request.. As my gaze turned to the mirror before me, I was shocked to see my current condition.. My face looks creepy, my left eye area is injured, looks a little bruised but what is worse is my cheek is also bruised but covered by bandages, my lips torn to look purple and blue adorned, my right hand is seen in the grip of the men with a dislocated shoulder. When I move my stomach feels very painful, when I open the bottom of the shirt turns out that there is also a purplish blue stomach, the left leg was wrapped in a bandage.. What happened to you, Almira?
Looking at my reaction at this moment, kirey immediately took the mirror in my hand and took it away.. Lilian tried to take my mind off me by offering me lunch.. Emre deliberately left his car to be used lillian making it easier for him or Kirey if you want to go or need something. Kirey then explained that he had a lecture schedule at 13:00 this afternoon.. Hearing that I asked Lilian to drive Kirey to college, and then buy me lunch.. After they left, my body was still sore and weak until I laid my body again slowly, but over time my eyes felt sleepy and I fell asleep..
............................
“ Mira.. Almira.”
“ Lilian? You have been. . . . . . SERKAN?”?
Almira who was shocked tried to wake up
“ Calm, don't move much. How's your condition?”
Handed him off trying to hold Almira's body
“ DON'T SEE ME!! Right now I look really fucked.”
Almira pulled out a bedcover blanket to cover her entire body
“ Almira, put down the blanket. Let me see your condition”
“ No. I've improved.. Thank you”
“ Follow my words. Lower the blanket it”
“ Almira”
" I SAID NO! MY FACE IS SO CREEPY!!"
" What nonsense are you talking about? Let me see you almira!!"
Hand over the forced pull of the blanket I used to cover me.. Still feeling weak, I had no more energy to hold the blanket open.. I quickly covered my face with both of my hands, Serkan held my hands back and opened them so that he could see me.. Feeling defeated, I finally fell silent to see him in front of me.. With her perfect face, Serkan looked at me seriously and carefully examined my face, hands and feet.. I honestly feel embarrassed and awkward at this time, but it would be draining of my energy if I refused..
“ How about your stomach? Open it let me see it”
Bring back the blanket
“ WHAT??”
“ Don't think strangely, I just want to see bruises on your stomach”
“ No need.. I'm fine”
Almira pulled back her blanket
“ Oya? Now try to sit quickly”
“ Of sa....AARRGGHH!!!.”
Almira who was in pain immediately held onto her stomach
“ Sick? Why is it so hard for you to listen to me? Let me see that bruise”
“ . . . . . Handcuff.. Somebody wants me..”
“ Shut up, I'm looking at a bruise on your stomach. It seems to be a little better than last night. For women the stomach is the most important part. You know that, right? We'll see the results from the doctor later tonight”
“ Nights?? But I..”
“ Do you want to go home with your condition like this?”
“ There may be other alternatives that..”.
“ No”
“ But this is your room.. Then where are you going to sleep? Or I moved..”
“ I have a job I brought home. So, it looks like tonight I'm going to finish the pending work. You sleep here”
“ I know so many things you have to do, why you...”.
“ Doesn't mean anything. You also don't need to keep your distance from me”
“ You realize it?”
“ I just wanted to ask, You.... Is it very uncomfortable because of me?”
When he was going to explain to her, Lilian turned out to come home with lunch in the form of soup and bread that smelled very fragrant.. Lilian stood still and seemed to feel awkward for being present at the wrong time.. Send the one who saw Lilian bring food for me, stood up and walked out of the room saying she would bring me dinnerware.. Lilian walked towards me..
“ I must have come at the wrong time. I'm sorry mir, honestly I didn't know Serkan was home”
“ The car is not parked in front?”
“ No.. I don't see it”
“ Then, what's he here with? Did Emre deliver it?”
“ Emre is meeting in another company replacing current Serkani”
While thinking about what this guy is going to be with, why not wait for Emre to deliver him? Is he in a hurry to come here? Even bringing office work to do.. Serkan shortly entered carrying eating utensils with a charming aura.. Even Lilian was stunned to see the appearance of this man.. The suit he was wearing was already detached so the sky blue shirt he was wearing made him look dazzling.. Folded shirt sleeves make us able to see the muscle layer of his hand, buttons his shirt slightly open was able to make us imagine things that are not.. Realizing about my current thoughts, it was truly embarrassing! I immediately turned my face around but Lilian still saw the attack so stunned..
Serkan sat down next to me by extending his hand towards Lilian to take the soup and bread, Lilian finally realized and gave it to Serkan. Saw him prepare food very neatly for me, take a spoon and stir the soup because it still feels hot to cool quickly.. Then the soup was spilled bit by bit on the bread and stretched out its hand to feed me.. With the condition of my injured lips making it a little difficult to open my mouth, Serkan returned swiftly divide the bread into small pieces that I easily ate. Seeing me craving to eat food, he smiled and left me with Lilian to be more free to eat this food..
Why is it like this? When I didn't want to get involved with him, the opposite happened.. I became closer to him and the people around him. What should I do with my feelings right now? But I know, this is not the place for me..
