This is a story about a girl who spent all her life trying to be invisible but in reality she isn't, she have a body with curves all on the right places making all the girls envy her and all the guys to want her. While she only cares about her dreams and goals, she has a specific plan and love is nowhere on her list.

But life has other plans for her, as they say life happens when you are busy making other plans.

She believes in destiny and luck, she has a pure heart and strong will. She gets whatever life throws at her with a smile on her face and a head held high, she doesn't believe in second chances and she knows that nothing in life comes easily and that everything has to come due to hard work and dedication.

She doesn't believe in love and romance, she only believes in physical attractions. 'You have an itch that you need to scratch, you've seen her body and you want to try it and taste it' these were her mantra in life

Things are easy in her world, they are either black or white, the word grey does not exist in her dictionary. If only she knew that her life will be thrown into the tornado and turn it upside down, maybe she would've strenghtend her deffencive walls around her heart.

I'm Layla and this is my story.

Prologue
I spent the past 10 years of my life traveling around, ever since I graduated from college I took my backpack and started touring my favorite countries. I never stayed in one place for long, I get familiar with the country I'm in, making new friends while working to save money for my next adventure. I don't use a cellphone, because of my constant travels I don't have a fixed number besides I never liked having a phone since having no one to call or anyone to call me back. I prefer exchanging emails with my friends, that way we stay in contact whenever we miss each other. I have no place to call home, no family to go back to but thank god for friends. I have lots of friends all around the glob, whenever I go I stay with them. I never had to buy or rent a house to stay in, I occasionally stay in a hotel room from time to time but mostly I stay with my friends. God have blessed me with the best friends anyone could have, they kind of friends that I call family. My next trip was to Turkey and specifically Istanbul, my childhood friend had settled down there and kept sending me emails asking me to stop by and see her. That's why I'm here, I just landed in Istanbul. It is 10 in the evening now, I don't think it will be appropriate to stop by her place at this time so I decided to check in a hotel for the night and tomorrow I'll go see her in her office the first thing in the morning. I went up to my room, took a warm shower, pit on my pj's and threw myself on the bed. It felt so comfy under my body, after the long trip that I've had sleep is taking over my senses and before I knew I felt myself drift off to sleep land.  --- I wake up the next day feeling refreshed, I check for the time on the wrist watch next to me on the bedstand that I took off before sleeping yesterday and read it's 10 am. I return it and sit up, I reach for the phone to order breakfast efore heading to the bathroom and freshnup. After finishing my breakfast I change into a simple green flowery dress that reaches just below my thighs, it was an off shoulder dress that gives the impression of simplicity and comfort with a hint of sexiness. I put on my brown boots before starting to work on my hair, I decided to let it loose and give it a few curls. I kept my makeup simple just an eyeliner with a light shade of lipstick to complete the look, I reached into my accessories bag and put on two gold necklaces one short with a heart hanged in the middle of it, it ended just at the crock of my neck and the other is taller with a crescent moon shape in the middle of it, it ends in the middle of my chest. To finish the look I put on 2 rings on my right index finger and ring finger with my watch on the left wrist, I threw on my brown cross bag across my shoulder before leaving the room. After a 30 minutes ride I find myself standing in front off a tall glace building, I look up at the company logo to make sure I'm in the right place before heading inside. I read (A&A vizyon). 'that sounds right' I say to myself before stepping inside the building and straight toward the reception desk, once I am in front of the desk the receptionist lifted her head looking at me with a friendly smile on her face "Welcome to A&A vizyon how can I help you?" She asked me "Hi, I'm here to see Isla Ateş" I tell her with a smile on my face  "Do you have an appointment?" She asked me "No, but I know she is would want to see me, after all she did invite me here" I tell her before adding "can you please just call her and tell her that I'm waiting for her in the lobby" I ask her with pleading eyes "Just let me call her assistant" she tells me before picking up the phone, I turn my back towards her to take a look at my surrounding. I kept on getting glances from people crossing by the lobby, I can't blame, etc them with the way I'm dressed I definitely stand out. It is too obvious that I don't belong in here, not that I care what people think though. "Excuse me miss" I hear the receptionist call from behind me, I turn towards her and she continues  'Mrs. Ateş is now in a meeting but you can wait for her upstairs in the waiting are near her office' she say before giving me a visitor card and guide me towards Isla's office, I thank her before sliding my visitor card on the card reader to open the door for me, I walk towards the elevators on the left and head up towards Isla's office. Once I step out of the elevator I was greeted by an tall red haided woman, she has a long stunning red hair that ends just above her a*s and blue eyes, she was wearing a black skirt that hugged her a*s nicely and showing her never ending legs, a red button up shirt that hugged her breast leaving (not in a slutty way) and black hells. She looked too professional for my own taste while wearing a small smile on her face, she walks towards me and say "my name is Yasemin the assistant, how can I help you?" She asked me "I'm here to see Isla but the receptionist told me that she is in a meeting and that I can wait for her here" I tell her, while I caught her checking me out her eyes are scanning my body from head to toes and back. Once her eyes landed back at mine "is something wrong?" I ask her without hiding my irritation in my tone and crossing my hands over my chest while glaing at her 'I'm so not pleased with her behavior'  I say to myself "You just don't look like you know Mrs. Ate that's all" she replied making me scoff, I shake my head, turn my back to her and walk towards the glass wall window to watch the city right under my feet. I was too lost in the view when I heard people talking behind me disturbing the silence that I was enjoying, I turn my head toward the sounds and that's when I saw 4 people walking out of the elevator talking. They were 2 men and 2 women wearing too professional that it made me feel out of place, that's when my eyes landed on her. She was beautiful as ever, she has a body to die for (you can't even tell that she had twins) and sexy as hell, she was talking and laughing with them. None of them noticing me while crossing the lobby "hey firefly" I yell to capture her attention, which I successfully did, I found all their heads snap towards me blocking my view to Isla when she walked from behind them looking at me. "Layla?" She questions while walking towards me "In the flesh" I answer her pointing with my hands towards my body wearing a proud smile on my face "I can't believe you're here" she yells while engulfing me with a bone crushing hug taking me into a swift of twirls and laughs, I try to push her off of me to take a breath when my tries failed I tap her on her shoulder "You're squizing my rib cage" I whisper out of breath before she release me, allowing me to take a deep breath "I forgot about your bone crushing hugs" I tell her while massaging my rib cage "my chest hurts" I tell her with a sarcastic look on my face causing her to laugh which put a smile on my face "What's with the firefly thing and who is she love?" I heard someone ask grabbing our attention  "Oh you must be Sarp her husband" I answer while offering my hand for him to chase "I'm Layla her childhood friend" I continue after taking back my hand "When have you arrived?" Isla change the subject  "Yesterday at 10 pm, I was extremely tired from my long trip. That's why I didn't reach for you yesterday, I just checked in a hotel for the night" I tell her "Okay come with me, we'll pick up your stuff and head to my house" she say before turning to her husband "love I'm gonna go now see you tonight" she tells him before kissing his cheek, she takes my hand in hers and drags me with her.  --- Once we reached my hotel room, she sat down on the couch while I started packing the few items that I took out yesterday when I started to break the silence "I don't think staying with the 4 of you is a good idea" I tell her "Why not? You know I have an entire floor for me" she tells me when I sat beside her on the couch "I know but you know I like to have a little bit of privacy and with you with the kids there and Sarp and his boyfriend around and their surrogate is just too crowded, besides they don't know that you told me everything about them and I don't think they will like that" I tell her "Okay fine I can arrange someplace else for you it's no biggy, but we are going to rectify that by getting you and the gang to know each other. Nasıl fikir?" (How is this idea?) She asked me in Turkish "Great" I answer her before we both stand up, I take my backpack and we leave the room heading for the reception to checkout. *** "So what do you think?" She asked me after she showed me arround the house that she's offering me to stay in "It's really great, cozy and unique. It's weird but I kinda feel like I'm home" I tell her scrunching my nose "Perfect" she exclaims and claps her hands "Whoes place is this?" I ask her "Mine, well the entire building is mine, I usually rent the first 2 floors, and I leave the 3rd floor empty incase my family wanted to visit. I opened this floor with the upstairs floor to make a small penthouse and left it for me incase I wanted to disappear for a while, no one knows this place and you are not to tell anyone that this place is mine" she finishes with a finger infron of my face and a serious look on her face "Okay firefly calm down" I tell her raising my hands in surrender before a smile c***k her serious face  "I'm gonna go now, you settle down. I'll send you a new phone and a car" she tells me before taking her purse "I don't need that" I tell her but she cuts me off "Yes you do, it's time for you to join the 21st century for gods sake" she exasperated causing me to chukle, she reached inside her purse and took out a key chain before she threw it towards me. I catch it as quick reflex before looking back at her, I find her opening the front door and stop in her tracks "I'm going to find you a job.." I opened my mouth to argue with her but she just raised her hand up stopping me "I know you don't want to work with me so I'll find new another place, after all you need to save before your next adventure right?" She winks at me causing me to smile "see you stealth" she say before walking out the door and closing it behind her. "See you" I mumble behind her, I take a deep breath before looking around me for a minute and finally take my backpack and head towards the bedroom to settle in. ---***--- Isla always looked after Layla, she is like the biggest sister that Layla never had. Although Layla knows tha Isla was right as per usual, Layla has to find a job to save money for her next adventure. She has other places to scrath off her list, little did she know that this stop is going to be the adventure of her life. If anyone told her before she booked the ticket to Istanbul that destiny had other plans prepared for her maybe she wouldn't have bought in the first place, but as they say ignorance is a bliss in disguise. while she was unpacking her things and settling in her room, destiny was preparing a little surprise for her that will turn her life upside down and break her ice cold heart.
