The morning ....
After several months of not setting foot in the neighborhood where she once lived, Hanna finally visited the place again. In accordance with her husband's promise, Hanna came to see Grandma Laura.
Memories are so tightly embedded in his memory. Seven years ago was the first time he came to that place as a mysterious young girl.
Hanna stared at Madame Gulsha's house she had rented for many years. He smiled when he remembered the woman. Although Mrs Gulsha was quite chatty and fierce, but she still allowed Hanna to rent her house, although sometimes too late to pay the rent.
"Hanna, how you doing, son?"
A smile drew a frown on the old woman's face. He extended his hand to welcome Hanna into his arms. Haru and happy feelings spread when Hanna returned her embrace.
"Grandmother Laura, how are you? I miss Grandma so much" said Hanna.
"Good, Son. How's yours?"
"I'm good too, Grandma. Very good!"
Grandma Laura rubbed the top of Hanna's head lovingly. He smiled happily. Although Hanna had been the wife of a very wealthy man, she had not changed at all.
"I thought you'd forgotten me."
"Don't say that, Grandma. I'm still the same as I used to be."
Grandma Laura wiped away the tears that had welled up at the end of her eyes.
"alright. Let's go in first. I just made your favorite toast."

Grandma Laura had not been able to stem her tears. Disbelief still filled his heart. Hanna just gave him a house key. Something he never thought of.
"Hanna, but this is too much. I didn't expect anything more."
"No, Grandma. Think of it as a gift for Grandma. During my stay in Amasya, my grandmother helped me a lot. Only in this way can I repay Grandma's kindness."
"Thank you, son. May you always be happy."
Hanna hugged the woman.
"Grandmother can move into a new home at any time. In addition, my husband would also send money every month, so that Diara could go home and no longer need to work in a place far from grandma."
Grandma Laura held the key to the house in tears. Evan bought a house in a strategic area. Moreover, the house that Evan prepared for her was a pretty big house.

Hanna's arrival also made some noise. The atmosphere suddenly became crowded.
He has apologized several times and thanked him, because Evan did not fire his daughter who worked at his cafe.
"Hanna, I don't know what to apologize for. I am so ashamed of what I have done in the past. Moreover, I often insult your children.*
"It's okay, Madam. I'm sorry, too, I've been rude to you a lot."
"That's because I was the one who was rude."
Hanna smiled.
"Not to think about it anymore. What matters is that we're friends now."
"Oh, yes ... I heard tomorrow you're leaving Amasya."
"Yes, Madam."
"Are you going straight home?"
"No, my sister-in-law is dying to go to Cappadocia. Our family will be there."
"Well, that would be so much fun."

On the other hand, Evan was enjoying his lunch break in a room when the door of his room opened.
He smiled and immediately stood up from his seat when he saw his wife had just arrived. Evan greeted her with a hug.
"It looks like you're very happy today" Evan said, staring at Hanna's beaming face.
"Yes, of course," he replied as he tidied up his messy hair as it was ruffled by Evan anxiously. "Laura's grandmother sent you a message. He thanked me for the gift."
"I'm glad he likes it." Evan hugged his wife again. Kissing the cheeks and forehead.
"Oh, yes ... Get ready, because tomorrow we're going to Istanbul. Brother Zian and Naya have contacted me several times. It seems Naya can't wait to go to Cappadocia. Look, he's gonna be in a hot air balloon all day."
"Had Naya never been there?"
"Yet. This will be his first experience. He will make Kak Zian bother with his wishes that are sometimes beyond normal human reason."
"Gee ... Looks like you know Naya well. You even know what his habits are like" Hanna said, leaving Evan speechless.
