As Erhan expected, Esma could not accept the bitter fact that she could not have a baby. She protested the doctor and begged her to recheck the report once again to make sure that she didn't make a mistake.
"I know it's hard for you to accept the reality, Ms. However, based on the report, you are indeed barren. I am so sorry to say this to you." Her sad eyes expressed her regret for telling Esma what she didn't want to hear.
"That can't be. No…." Esma covered her face soaked in tears with both of her palms; she failed to conceal her grief.
Erhan pulled his wife and let her head lean on his shoulder; his hand stroked her hair to soothe her heart in his arm.
No words came out of his mouth as he knew that his wife didn't need his preaching. His presence was all she needed.
The doctor
