Sofia's POV
Greece/Turkey Istanbul
"Do you need help?" The voice said, I turned around to look who the voice belonged to. The person looked like a young handsome guy "No, everything is fine" I replied as wipping my tears away "Are you sure hatun, it doesn't look like you are fine" He said "My name is Sofia not hatun and what is it to you? Why should I trust you ? You are just stupid like all other men" I said while remembering what had happend at my home "You trusted me enough to tell your name Sofia, besides not all men are stupid" he laughed, I looked at him saying "Fine but I will only tell you if you tell me your name" he smiled and said "Alex, my name is Alex", "Alex?" I asked "Yes, Alex" he said
After I told him what had happend he looked at me with pity but what else could he do? "You do not want this marriage?" He asked again to make sure he heard right " No, never I don't want to get married to such an old man" I said "Okay then come here again tommorow night at the same time as today" he said smilling "Why" I asked him "You do not desire this marriage so I am going to take you" I looked at him shocked after he said that "How will you do that?" I asked "Get some things ready and let me do the rest, trust me" he said while smilling and I just nodded also smilling
THE NEXT DAY she was standing infront of her window thinking about what she was going to do
After thinking and finally deciding, I walked away from my window and went downstairs where my mother and sister were "Sofia" my mother said making me look at her "Can you go to the market and buy some things again?" My mother asked, about to say no I thought again and said "Yes of course", "thank you my precious daughter" She said. So precious that she is even marrying me off.
I got up and dressed to go to the market.
Arriving at the market there were many people there, it was really crowed. Going to the apples I asked a man "excuse me? How much is this?" "5" he said, 5?! I thought and said "It's too expensive but thank you" about to go I heard someone yelling my name "Sofia! Sofia!" I couldn't believe it.
