TRAGEDY AUGUST 13 '98
SECTION 083
“Unrequited love is indeed ...” Anna shut her mouth. It's too vulgar to say that. “ Anyway, you can't do anything what you're trying to do. It will only make you feel sick.”
“Sure, I won't try to do anything again.” Zaid nodded with a wide grin.
“Good. Then, let's start everything as before as friends.”
“No! I don't want to do that.” Zaid. It was as if he didn't want to get in touch with Anna as just a friend.
“You can't be like that, Zaid's bodyguard. We have to restart from the beginning so you can continue your life. You can't be jealous and worry about me anymore.”
“Alright if that's what you want. I won't be jealous or worried about you anymore.” Zaid turned his face.
“I'm sorry, Zaid's bodyguard, but ....”
“Excuse me, I have to go home!” Zaid stepped away leaving Anna in front of the terrace.
“Jeez, that Fool is really troublesome,” muttered Zaid.
The night is getting late. Plus the winter that covers Istanbul. The alcohol content in Zaid's body was good to warm his body that night.

“What the fuck? No, I can't accept this!” resolute Can.
Early in the morning, Zaid had come to Can's residence. He arrived that day to declare that he was resigning as a personal bodyguard.
“Why did you suddenly stop working? What made you stop? Does anything make you unhappy here? Tell me who made you feel unhappy. I'll fire that guy if I need to.”
Zaid. “No. Nothing pisses me off at all. I quit because my health started deteriorating.”
“Then, rest. You can rest until you feel better, then, you can go back to work after that. You can take a week or two off, and even a whole month if you want.”
“Rest well for a full month. If necessary, I'll give you a special holiday ticket to Europe, so, you can check your health and vacation there. Hows it? What is less?”
Zaid nodded back. “I will plan to rest for a total.”
“Gosh, are you really sick? Come on, Zaid's bodyguard. Just tell me what you need. You need a high salary? I'll raise your salary.”
“Didn't you like the car I gave you? I'll replace it with a car you like. I'll take you to the car shorum, and you can choose as much as you like.”
“If you feel this job is too heavy, then I will also cancel the full protection without stopping it. You can stay at your house, and there's no need to stay here.”
All the ways Can used to persuade Zaid, but, it seems that Zaid is not interested in it at all.
“Not so I mean,” replied Zaid. He took Can's car keys out of his pocket, then placed them on the table. “Thank you for everything, but really, I don't need all your wealth.”
Can shakes confusedly. He no longer knew what way to persuade Zaid.
“Zaid's bodyguard, you know, don't you, if our relationship has come this far? Even I already think of you like my own brother rather than all the employees who worked with me first.”
