Song: I Won't Give Up by Jason Mraz
When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there's so much they holdAnd just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?Well, I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking upAnd when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find'Cause even the stars, they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give upI don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences, they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend, at least we did intend
For us to work, we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend, without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got and what I'm not
And who I amI won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
I'm still looking upWell, I won't give up on us (no, I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough, he knows (I am tough, I am loved)
We got a lot to learn (we are alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up***
Sanem
The shockwaves of Can striking Fabri and breaking his nose still roared through Istanbul a week later, and Sanem's blood ran cold each time she heard or read devious Fabri's name. With press statements and interviews, he shamelessly distorted reality, painting Can as an irrational madman and a bully with no control over his actions.
Her heart ached for Can, who was now facing public backlash for defending her, and for trying to hold on to his father's legacy. She knew that Can was simply defending their love, but the world saw him as an aggressor.
She felt helpless, knowing that Can was being portrayed as a villain, while the truth lay buried under the shadows of Fabri's relentless lies and slanderous words. Poor Can bore the brunt of vile social media attacks, with many of Fabri's fans even calling for his imprisonment.
Sanem was drained from Fabri's relentless lies and slanderous words which threatened Can's integrity with each passing day. During the day, she tried to focus on her job at the charity, but her mind wandered constantly, thinking about how she could make things right for Can.
