CHAPTER 8
"What is going on?" I heard Namik asking when my maids started to move my things from the chambers we were sharing.
"I wanted to be in another chambers, so I can be more comfortable," I said as they placed my things on the other side of palace as I didn't really want to be close to Namik after he has punched me.
"I am sorry for punching you Fahriye. I was really angry and I couldn't even think, they are giving me some bad medicine. Only nurse Aylin had good medicine to help me recover," Namik said and I really thought he thinks I am so stupid so I could believe. Her medicine might be that she slept with him and he felt better because of that. He started to be so disgusting to me and I couldn't stand being in his presence.
"I talked with Suleiman," I said and I could see he is really excited as he probably thought he will be immediately placed in Divan as he is dynasty's son-in-law.
"What position did I get?" Namik asked me as he couldn't hide anymore smile on his face.
"I don't know, Suleiman will talk with you and tell you what he has decided," I said and he came closer as he wanted to hug me but I stepped back instead.
"Don't, Namik," I said pushing him away from me and letting him know I could never forget how he behaved towards me. Maybe the punch didn't hurt so much as it hurt the fact that he was probably cheating on me in our own palace and didn't feel any shame because of that. I needed to investigate more about that.
"Only thing I want is that Osman doesn't come anymore near our Palace," Namik said hoping he would manipulate over me once again, but I wouldn't allow him to do it.
"Hunkarim ordered him to stay here and take care of me and the Palace. You can't forbid him from coming here or banishing him. Don't you even think of doing something to him because maybe you will never be invited in Divan then," I said and I knew when I would mention Divan Namik would change his mind. I wanted Osman to be here because honestly in the last time he was the only person in who's presence I felt like true myself.
I was glad Namik's mind was too occupied with happiness about the possibility of entering Divan so he left the Palace. I felt safer when he wasn't in my closeness and if I could I would get rid of him immediately and divorce him, but even though if I would do it Suleiman wouldn't accept it.
I sat in the Gardens where I saw Osman Agha who smiled to me when he saw me immediately. Namik's servants stood there also and when they saw Osman they started walking closer to prohibit him from coming close to me, but I dismissed them.
"Sultanim, you look actually happy after everything that has happened," Osman said as he came closer to me.
"I have to fake smile, Suleiman doesn't approve my decision and doesn't allow me to divorce until you and him investigate it all. I don't want my children to look at me sad as they should return every moment from Hatice's Palace. Already what Hatice knows is enough and I know she will tell this all to Valide and others and then I won't have peace," I said to him.
"I am sorry Sultanim that he doesn't approve it. I can't sleep peacefully when I know you are here next to that bastard sharing roof. I am scared if he would dare to raise his hand on you once again," Osman said as we started walking towards the Bosphorus which was very close to the Palace I lived in currently.
"I don't want to be here anymore, I just can't wait day until I can leave this Palace together with my children and get rid of Namik," I said and tried not to look at Osman because I couldn't allow myself to feel something towards him while I was married woman.
"I talked with Nigar Kalfa in Harem, and she said to me Gulsah Hatun gave her the letter," Osman said and I remembered the letter as someone told me Namik is cheating on me.
"So Mahidevran knows something," I said and sighed. Mahidevran knew I didn't like her a lot and this obviously was something she did to make me realise I didn't chose a good side, as she thought I chosen Hurrem's side. Mahidevran was jealous always when she wasn't in centre of attention and I never gave her any.
"But I don't think she could realise that alone, someone should have say something to her to make her think about it. She is usually only preoccupied with Hurrem Sultan," Osman said and everything he said was true.
"I know he cheats on me, but I feel so bad when those people threat to me because of those things. I don't want to look at him any more day, but he still begs me to return nurse in Palace," I said as I turned to look at Bosphorus where my mind was relaxed.
"I am doing my everything to find proofs as soon as possible, Sultana. But he hides everything very well," Osman said as he stood next to me and he was never this close to me which made me embarrassed in his presence.
"If you need any help from me I am ready to do it. Every day here is like a hell to me," I said and our eyes met once again which made me feel so nervous because never in my life I felt like this so ashamed in someone's presence.
"Only thing I want from you Sultana is to take care of yourself, I will always be here and if anything happens first call me. I won't let that bastard do anything bad to you again," Osman said as he took my hands into his and this was already much for me as I knew I'm gaining emotions for him and I shouldn't because I knew there never could be a chance for me to be with him.
Our eyes couldn't stop looking at each other's and together with him I felt so beautiful, like my whole heart is beating of happiness next to this man even though I shouldn't feel this way.
The moment of our closeness was interrupted when we heard someone walking closer and I stepped back from Osman immediately, and I'm glad I did it because few moments later I saw Mahidevran coming to us. I nodded to Osman to leave me alone with Mahidevran and I was ready to have very serious conversation.
"Fahriye Sultan, I didn't know you also love presence of another men," Mahidevran said with evil smile on her face as she obviously saw me talking with Osman.
"I didn't know I should justify my actions to you, Mahidevran," I said to her.
"Well maybe you should, for your best," she said and I couldn't stand presence of this woman anymore. She raised her to the skies only because she is mother of heir to the throne and thought this would make her important.
"Well I didn't know a Sultana should justify herself to a slave concubine who is not even loved by my brother Sultan," I said and fake smiled to her. I never wanted to be mean to anyone but what she wanted she got.
"Fahriye Sultan, I hope my letter arrived to you," Mahidevran said wanting to change the topic about how Suleiman doesn't want her anymore.
"Of course I did, we just found out it is sent by you," I fake smiled once again hating to be next to her and was angry because she interrupted me while I was with Osman.
"Then we can make a deal," Mahidevran said obviously being proud of her ideas.
"What deal can you make with me, please," I said and laughed at her words.
"You won't be anymore together with Hurrem, you won't support her anymore," Mahidevran said very seriously and I couldn't stop myself from not laughing at her words. Obviously what she couldn't stand is that someone prefers Hurrem over her and it hurted her a lot.
"Why?" I asked her as I couldn't stop laughing at her words and how poor her thoughts were. How she didn't even want Suleiman's love anymore but just couldn't stand anyone preferring Hurrem. But Valide and Hatice learnt her on that.
"Because I will tell Sultan then how your husband is cheating on you. Your ego will be hurt and you couldn't hide anymore the fact that Ottoman Sultana was cheated on by some random nurse," Mahidevran said and raised her head proudly in front of me.
I couldn't but laugh again at Mahidevran's words. She obviously thought Suleiman doesn't know about that and how hurt I would be if someone finds out about it, and not like that I have alone said this to him.
"Sultan already knows about that, you shouldn't worry, maybe you can repeat to him it," I said and smiled but Mahidevran was confused.
"If Sultan knows why are you still here with him?" Mahidevran asked me kinda disappointed knowing that myself alone I said this to Suleiman.
"It is not your business to mix into those things, take care of your son and not to mix into everything that is not your problem," I said as I started walking towards the Palace but she grabbed my arm.
"Sultanim, I wanted to do this for your good but you are blaming me like I did something wrong," Mahidevran said trying to justify her actions but I didn't care a word anymore she is speaking about when I knew she is afraid to become my enemy now.
"Sometimes I don't know if you act like you are stupid, or you really are Mahidevran. Please leave my Palace and don't come here unless you are invited because I don't want your presence here," I said and entered my Palace leaving her alone outside.
"Mommy, mommy, I missed you!" My daughter Kaya said immediately as I entered my Palace and run into my hug. I haven't seen her for days while she was with Hatice because of bad situation and I missed her a lot.
"My love, we are here together now," I said as I kissed her forehead and placed her to sit in my lap. Mahmud was sleeping peacefully in his crib as he was still young and I didn't want to wake him up.
"Why were we in aunt Hatice's palace? I was scared something bad happened, mommy," Kaya said.
"Everything is fine now, it won't happen again. We will never separate again my love," I said and kissed her cheeks while she was happy to be in my presence.
"Sultanim, a gift for you has arrived," Fehime said as she brought to me a big box.
"I want it," Kaya said and I just laughed and gave it to her in her hands to open it as she really loved opening the presents especially mines'.
We opened it and inside we found a beautiful diamond necklace and I have never in a long time received a gift from anyone especially not this beautiful.
"Mommy, it's so beautiful," Kaya said as she couldn't stop looking at it but she didn't take it in her hands as she was afraid not to break it like she has done once Namik gifted me with necklace.
"Who is it from?" I asked Fehime as I still couldn't believe how beautiful the necklace was.
"It's from Osman Agha," Fehime said.
