Give Me Your Hand's
After the death of Victor Eleanor



The departure of Victor Eleanor left a pain in Ivy's heart. After the funeral was over, the woman just sat pensively on the bed. A dark brown wooden frame was in his arms. Occasionally he stared at the face of the middle-aged man who was inside the frame. The warm smile that the man always gave to him and to his sister. Deniz Eleanor's.


Today is the third day after Victor's death. The atmosphere of grief still enveloped the two-story house. Sophia, the hostess, is widowed for the second time. The fifty-year-old woman did not expect that her husband had died so soon. The burden of his life increased, he had to take care of his two stepchildren and his own biological son. Plus the debt Eleanor's company has not paid off.


Sophia was sitting pensively in her living room. He was propping his chin up on his lap.


What am I supposed to do? Victor didn't leave behind anything that could make me survive.


The sound of the house bell ringing faded his daydream. The hostess stood up and walked over to open the door.


Three men stood in front of Sophia. One person was wearing formal clothing with his small stature. While the other two people with large height stature.


"Is this the home of Eleanor's family?" ask the small man. The man was flanking a large brown envelope.


"Yes. I'm Sophia Eleanor. You?" Sophia hesitated to answer. He just scrunched his forehead. In his mind, various questions arise to see the three strangers suddenly come to his house.


The red-haired woman read a billing company's name written on the uniforms of the two men of great stature.


Lest they will....


Sophia's face suddenly turned pale and covered her mouth with one hand.


"Mrs Sophia, we mourn Mr. Eleanor's death." The small man extended his hand to the woman.


Sophia returned the man's hand. "Yes. Thanks though. Is there anything you want to talk about?"


The man gave Sophia a brown envelope. Ivy's stepmother took the paper inside the envelope. His eyes can still see clearly rows of letters that read the order to empty his house.


"What'sthis? You can't force us to get out of this house!" sophia shouted out loudly.


"Sorry Lady Sophia. This was already the consequence that the Eleanor family had to bear. The late Mr. Victor had already secured this house to take out a loan of money on the bank. Now that the payment limit is over, Mr. Victor still hasn't paid off his debt and interest." The man tried to give a pause, so that his words could be digested by Sophia.


"By the extreme force, the bank will take ownership of the house. We'll get all the stuff out" the man continued.


Sophia's body suddenly went limp. He leaned against the wall next to the door. What he feared happened. The three men walked into the house past Sophia. They began to comb through every room downstairs.


"Mother, who are they?" Ivy and Cansu were heard together, as they descended the stairs. The two daughters of Eleanor saw the three men lifting a large closet that was used to partition the living room and the living room.


Sophia went inside with a tangled mind. He gave a letter from the bank to Cansu. The two young women were stunned as soon as they saw the writing.


Ivy and Cansu immediately ran over to the men who were about to lift the clock up with white teak wood carvings. The 180-centimeter clock is a relic of Ivy's birth mother.


"Don't bring that watch!" prevent Ivy while pulling the hand of one of them.


One by one the furniture in the house had moved onto the truck.


"It's all your fault, Ivy!" sophia exclaimed as she stared intently at her stepson's face. Ivy was just standing full of big question marks.


"Mother!" exclaiming Cansu. "Why do you blame Ivy?"


"If you hadn't run away on your wedding day, Ferit wouldn't have canceled his favor! That man will help your father's company! And we're not gonna lose this house!" sophia shouted to make Nur who was in the kitchen come out to see what happened.


Hearing Sophia's words, Ivy's heart was about to jump out of place. All this time he did not understand the reason his father forced him to marry Ferit. He thought it was just a matter of ordinary matchmaking. Had he known the real reason, he might have thought twice about leaving Ferrite at the wedding altar.


"It's no use, you're crying! It's all happening! Your father, this company and this house no longer exist!" exclaimed Sophia who saw Ivy squatting while wiping her tears in front of the wall.


Nur immediately approached Ivy and lifted the young woman's body. The cook took his master's daughter to the room.


Sophia sat down with her tense face. He could not accept the change that had just happened in his life.


"Miss, the bank gave three days to leave the house immediately. We hope for your cooperation" the formally dressed man told Cansu.


Cansu just nodded his head slowly, he saw that the whole piece of furniture that had not been stuck was covered with a white cloth. Her tears flowed when she saw those people leaving.


"Where can we get a new house in three days?" muttered Cansu while closing the door of his house.


Meanwhile in the room, Nur gives a glass of water to Ivy to relieve his surprise.


"Don't listen to the woman, she always blames anyone" Nur said. The woman sat herself down in front of Ivy who was sitting on her bed.


The housekeeper had been taking care of Ivy and Deniz since they were children. The two children of Victor loved Nur very much, because when their birth mother died only this woman was always near them. Until one day, exactly ten years ago, their father married a widow with one child.


Sophia, the woman with a million mysteries. Such was Nur's view of his new mistress. When his master was still successful, Victor's new wife was very kind to her two stepchildren. But the eyes could not deceive, nor did Nur who never believed Sophia's every word.


"What the woman said was right, Nur. I caused all this to happen" Ivy said softly.


"That's not true, baby. Don't you blame yourself. There's still Deniz who needs you." Nur held the hand of his master's daughter.


"I haven't told Deniz that you're dead yet." Ivy's words made Nur's heart more tenacious, imagining the boy losing both parents. The boy himself was battling his illness.


"If the problem of this house is over, you can tell Deniz," said Nur, who was met with a bitter smile that came out of Ivy's lips.
