ECHOES OF REBORN CARTEL

PRICE OF REJECTION

"Yes she is my Ecem",Aunty agreed softly...

She has her own identity her own fierce Karate training and her own beautiful soul .

But your heart and soul recognise her on the first day, even if your brain refuse to admit it.

You are not protecting her out of mafia instinct. Alp you are protecting her because

You deeply completely in love with her again.

Alp didn't answer. He closed his eyes a profound agonizing ache setting into his chest as the aunt's word laid his deepest

Truth bare with her all over again.

Miss Chai again stated," yash is very good man and successful man . He wants to marry her and take her to India . I will not say

Ecem to not go to India . Because I know

Yash will gonna take care of her Alot. But I want to say one thing to you ,Ecem deserve to know the truth of man who was watching over her from the shadows...

With those final word Miss Chai stand up and walked out of office, leaving Alp with his thoughts , the Ghost of his past and blooming unstoppable love for Ecem.

The next morning the bright sun washed over Ecem neighbourhood... clearing away the last remnant of heavy Strom.

Ecem was sitting in living room porch, drinking herbal tea. Suddenly a smooth

Luxury Thar car pulled up outside. Yash stepped out . He looked neat as always in sharp designer suit , but his face look worried and serious. His billionaire confidence softened the moment when he saw Ecem . "How are you Ecem??...You will good or not ",yash asked....

Ecem stand up and replied," I am completely okay. Thankyou for your support.

Yash leaning toward and gently asked for her hand. He hesitated for second choosing

His words carefully to beat around bush before making his actual point,,,,....Ecem

You know how much our friendships mean

To me. This city is incredibly dangerous from you. First the cafe fight , then gang war and

Now getting stucked in that cottage with that

Mafia and you were attacked by thugs....

It is completely out of control.

Ecem watched his face, sensing where his

Conservation was heading . "Yash what are you trying to say??"....

Yash squeezed her hand gently," his voice

Full of desperate concern". I am saying that

You don't belong in palace ruled by a dangerous mafia...you life is always goona in risk..why don't you come with me to India? Just for few months . My family has

a massive estate there. You can complete your college online and you can continue you karate class there and you don't have to look over you shoulder every single second.

Ecem looked at yash ,her unyeilding independent spirit flaring up instantly. She

Gently but firmly withdrew his hand from his grip." No ,Yash. I cannot do that . Ecem said ," my aunty is here . Our cafe is here...in turkey. I love this place..even though this place is ruled by anyone...I don't care.

I deeply appreciate you care and i know you want me to keep safe. But this city is my home. Running away to another country will not goona solve my problem. Before I meet you, at that time I also have lots of problems

But I solved every problem very bravely.

I am independent girl. I can take care of me and my aunty. I won't leave this country....just because things get difficult.

Yash face fell ,his heart sinking at her stubborn refusal. He felt sad but he said If you want you can bring Miss chai with you...

But Ecem refused.....he knows that how much wealth he has or security he has both will goona work.he could never break her fierce independence the exact tratit that

Was secretly drawing her closer to the dark .

Yash faced turned completely red as his

Billionaire ego was hurt and due to intense jealousy shattered his calm demeanor.

He stands up form the chair so fast that

It rattled against the living room. The rejection, combined with lingering image of Ecem coming out of Alp dark armored SUV hospital completely break his patience .

You won't leave your life behind!!! Yash shouted his voice echoed fiercely . Ecem open your eyes !!!! You don't have life anymore here !!! Your cafe was destroyed , you have a literal bullet wound in your side and still you want to live here ....you are completely insane ...you are being hunted by the ruthless mafia...still you want to love here..I think you love That ruthless mafia...

Isn't it?????..Our you want his power....

Ecem stood up instantly her own stubborn

Courage flaring up as she ignored the slight throbe in her side . " Lower your voice, Yash ....and i think you need to mind your language...What ever the false allegation you put on me ..is completely wrong. I never hope these words from you . I am an independent woman. I make my own choice. Just because I rejected your offer you started saying anything about me. Don't let your Billionaire confidence turn into arrogance.,,,and please maintain a peaceful distance from me . Fromright now we both are not friend. You said to me I love Mr Mafia

But I want to say one thing to you he never demean my character. You heart me alot....

I don't want your help anymore. Please don't come here again. I am very happy without your support and i really glad that you helped me i will never forget these things but from right now we are not friend...

Thank you for your every help ! I will return the favour whenever you need in future.

But don't show me your face again.

Yash stared at her hai eyes filled with dangerous mix of fury , disappointment and wounded pride. Without saying another word he turned his back and moved back to his Thar . He violently spun his tires speeding away from the cloud of dust.... inside the car he was absolutely boiling ..
