My name is Ayse Nur Aydin. I am 18 years old and I am from Trabzon. I am in the Philosophy department at Bilkent. I enjoy reading books. I also like playing games. I chose to write my story because I like dilemmas and the decision making process. My favorite story is A Life Without You.
In 2014, November 8
A. was worried about her classes, because she was late. Therefore, she couldn't attend the class. Then she decided to go to the cafeteria. While she was looking around and lost in her thoughts, a man called out to her: "Hi, could I sit here?"
She nodded in agreement. After some time had passed, they started talking.
She asked, "Which department is yours?" then E. said, "I am in the law department. I want to be a lawyer. My father is a lawyer, too. He is my idol."
A. answered: "I hope you will be a good lawyer." and continued with, "I am in the psychology department; I came here because of my family. I didn't want that. My family wanted me to study here, and I am here."
Then, they continued to talk while drinking their coffee.
In a few months, they fell in love with each other. A. felt like her everything is E. and he also felt like that. He got used to her beautiful smell, her black hair, her tone of voice, her smile, everything. They did everything together all the time. Their school was still going on, and they were studying very well.
One day, E's father was worried. E. asked him:
"Dad, is everything okay?" The father, Levent, thought that he should explain the situation. Levent stroked his chin a little and thought. He looked really worried. Then he said, "My old friend, he planned bad things for me! I didn't know that. I am so angry! How did he do that? Why? I can't understand! I don't know what I should do. He betrayed me. He will make me look guilty, but I am NOT guilty! He planned everything."
The atmosphere was very tense. E. was so surprised. He didn't know the situation, and E's nose was smelling bad things.
He thought, "I should help my father." However, he didn't know how to do this.
He decided to ask his father, "What will we do? Oh, I have an idea! We should collect and send them the files that prove your innocence. We can do it!" E. was worried and frightened. What was their purpose?
After some silence, E's father started to talk:
"I don't think so. We can't do anything. Yes, we can try to prove my innocence, but he is a police officer! Also, he is not a normal police officer. He is the Chief of Police. If we try to do this, he can do whatever he wants. Therefore, we can't prove my innocence. If we send the files to them, he can eliminate the files!" However, E. still believed that they could prove his father's innocence.
On the other hand, A. noticed his stressed state. She wanted to ask him, and she said, "Are you okay? You don't look well."
He didn't know what to say. He waited for a while. Then he started to explain the situation. He focused on a single point while explaining, but he looked worried. He was constantly shaking his knee. After his explanation, he calmed down and looked determined again.
He said, "I will do my best! I will ruin him!"
She squeezed his shoulder and said, "I am always with you." However, there was a problem because neither of them knew that "the police officer" was A's father.
One day, they normally went to university, and they were spending time in the evening. There was a nice atmosphere with music and pleasant smells in the background. While they were talking, E. was called by an unknown number. He answered the phone. A. was scared because E. seemed frozen while he was talking on the phone. Then, he suddenly went to his car, and A. followed him. When they arrived, it seemed like they went to E's home, and there was a crowd. The lawyer, E's father, was killed by a police officer. E. started to cry and scream. A. didn't know what she should do.
Later, they learned that the killer was A's brother, but he wasn't guilty according to the law. She was so confused. She didn't know what she should do. She had to choose her family or her love. She chose her love because her family didn't care about her. Their relationship wasn't good. After her choice, they search for the files together. However, what they did wasn't important. E. was depressed and angry, but he really couldn't do anything, and A. was too.
One day, A. woke up, and E. wasn't near him. She called out: "Where are you?" There was no answer. She went to look for him. When she looked at the whole house, there was no one there. A. understood that he has gone and he will never come back. A. felt terrible when she realized this. From the house, screams were coming, but no one heard the voices.
Now, A. would be alone forever.
