God! This alarm. Shut up! Shut up! Mr.Alarm you always spoil my morning sleep. I stretched  my arm to off my alarm clock.Where is my alarm? *Bang* Shit !! Did I just break my alarm? No!!!
I got up hasty that surely gave my neck a sprain.
Well, Good fucking- morning!!
Now only Turkish tea would refresh my mood. I don't drink tea usually, I have always being a coffee person but today I am in a tea mood but first thing first-  making my bed because without that I can't do anything. It's like OCD, I hate wrinkles on my bed.

Two shimmering pots, one with water another with tea powder. Till the time tea is brewing, I'll take a shower and make my nutritious breakfast. 

**********
Sipping Turkish tea, inhaling fresh air and Istanbul sea view, this is Heaven!!
One thing I love about this house is a balcony  with a perfect view. This is the best place to have breakfast.

Breakfast (veg burrito bowl)

*Phone chimes* Now who is calling? Probably mom, I went inside my room to see my phone. It's morning ritual of my mom to call me and check up on me but this time it's not mom, it's Alihan

"Hello," I said while joining my breakfast in the balcony. "Günaydın! Sia canim" (good morning Sia dear ). Alihan greeted me through the phone.
"Günaydın!" My voice came all grumpy.

"Feels like someone got up from the wrong side of the bed," Alihan remarked.
"Avet!" (Yes). I won't deny that I m not in my best mood.
"What happened gün Işığım? (My sunshine). He asked me in his mocking voice. " You! you happened! I  came to Turkey because of you because you were here. You know that this city, this country is strange to me but I established my brand here because I thought you will be there with me". I think I babbled too much.

Alihan Taşdemir, a well-known business tycoon in Turkey. We meet each other in a business school in America. He was my senior but that doesn't stop us from being good friends. After establishing my own brand "Urban Chic" in India, I decided to do the international extent of my brand. Alihan insisted me to do it here and said he will support me. So I choose Turkey for my International enterprise and why go to a strange country with no friends.
Now, it's being a year  I am staying here in Istanbul, away from mom, dad and Bhai (brother in Hindi). I miss them, I miss my country, India.
Alihan left Turkey and went to America after this marriage due to some personal family conflicts. I do think he took the right decision about going to America. He and his wife, Zeyneb deserves all the happiness in the world. Only this is the reason I am not angry with Alihan for leaving me here alone.
