A family of three

''Daddy, do you think Mammy is telling the truth?'' Amanda asked Ferit.

''Mammy?'' Logan asked and looked at Ozge.

''Amanda, I think that Dr. Ozge is telling the truth''

''But, I want to speak to her before I sleep''

''How about this? You can hold on to my phone. I will call you with Amanda's phone when she is about to sleep''

''No, I can't do that. What if you get an important call? I can't be looking for you in the middle of the night. Amanda, let's wait till tomorrow, mm?''

''Forget it then, since Mammy doesn't want me, I won't bother her anymore. Daddy, tell the driver to send me home after school tomorrow''

''I still have your old phone with me, Ozge''

''No need!'' Ozge said and glared at Logan.

''Do you know each other?'' Ferit asked.

''No''

''Yes''

Ozge said no, Logan said yes.

Ferit and Amanda looked at them.

''Is it a yes or no?'' Ferit asked.

''We don't know each other. Amanda, I will go and get a phone right away. Once I do, I will call you''

''Let's go together then'' Amanda held Ozge and Ferit's hands. ''Daddy, let's go together''

''There is no need. I can go there myself''

''No. You will keep long. Let's go together. Daddy and I will help you pick a good phone''

''Let's go together. We won't hear the end of it'' Ferit said to Ozge.

''I will change out of my scrubs and join you outside''

''Alright''

''What is going on? Why is Amanda calling Ozge, Mammy?'' Logan asked after Ozge left.

''She likes Dr. Ozge that's why. But, how do you know each other?''

''Well, we were a couple until a few months ago''

''Dr. Ozge is your ex-girlfriend? Wait, is she the one who almost killed you?''

''Yes, she is the one''

''Daddy, let's go'' Amanda said, pulling Ferit away.

''Let's talk later on Logan''

''Alright'' Logan watched them go away. His face was filled with a complicated emotion. He let out a soft chuckled before walking away.

….

''Ozge, are you sure it's alright to go with them to get a new phone? What if he starts to interrogate you?''

Ozge took the bottle of water and sipped after taking the medicine. After that she placed the bottle on her table and turned to Leyla.

''Don't worry, I am not that easy to penetrate. I'm just going to get a new phone. I will find an excuse and leave after that'' Ozge removed her blazer, wearing it on top of her red closed neck shirt. She picked her bag and kissed Leyla reassuring her, ''it's okay, I got this Leyla''

Leyla smiled and nodded her head, ''mm, you be safe''

….

Ozge walked out of hospital and saw Ferit and Amanda standing by the Bugatti. Ferit had his one hand inside his side pocket while he held Amanda's hand with the other.

Seeing them waiting by the car, Ozge's eyes revealed an unknown emotion before she took a deep breath and walked over.

''Mammy'' Amanda ran to Ozge and held her hand, ''you are finally out. Daddy, mammy is here''

''Let's go'' Ferit opened the front seat door for Ozge.

''Thank you''

''Amanda, get in'' Ferit opened the backseat for Amanda and she got in before he went over to the driver's seat.

''Whoa, are they really seeing each other?'' Azra said and turned to look at Nano. They were watching the car of Ferit go while they stood at the entrance.

''Does she think she will become the little madam just because the girl likes her? Why is she so desperate?''

''Dr. Ozge doesn't look like she likes the director. She must be going with them because of the little girl''

''I don't care'' Nano removed her phone and walked away.

…..

Ferit pulled over and they got down in front of a phone shop. When he opened the door and Amanda got down, she quickly went to hold Ozge's hand.

''Mammy, what kind of phone do you want?''

''I don't know yet. What are the latest phones that are out?''

''A lot but, daddy knows a lot about phones. He has a friend who works in a phone industry, they make good phones. Daddy, will you help Mammy choose a phone?''

Ozge turned to look at Ferit and their eyes met. She looked away immediately and went inside before him.

''Let's go in first'' Ferit said to Amanda.

Ozge looked at the phones in the display glasses and sighed. She found it burdensome getting a phone but because of Amanda, she was going to compromise. She had vowed not to use a phone so that no one would know how to contact her.

Especially, that person!

''How about this one?'' Ferit pointed at a phone in the shelf and asked.

''Huh?'' Ozge came back to her senses and turned to look at him. Her gaze shifted to the shelf and she looked at the phone.

''This is the latest brand of iPhone13''

''It's too complicated, I wouldn't know how to navigate through it'' Ozge shook her head and went to pick a much simpler phone.

''Mammy, let's take the iPhone13, if you don't know much about it, daddy can teach you''

''Ma'am, this latest iPhone13 got sold out in the first 12 hours after it came out. This is the last one in our shop. The features are simpler than most phones'' the sales boy walked over and explained.

''It's pink, don't you have something black?''

''No, but we have one that is peach''

''I will take the peach one but can I get a black case to cover it up? I hate things that are too bright''

''Yes, Ma'am, don't worry''

Ozge opened her bag to remove her card and saw Ferit giving his credit card out to the sales boy.

''Make a full payment'' Ferit said.

''No, I will pay for it''

''No, take it as my gratitude for accepting Amanda. I know how stubborn and difficult she can be''

''Mammy, let daddy buy the phone for you'' Amanda held their hands with her little fingers and smiled, looking at them.

''But…''

''Just take it, if you don't feel comfortable, you can pay me back later on'' Ferit said and walked to the counter leaving Ozge and Amanda behind.

Ozge looked at him and sighed. She looked down when Amanda pulled her hand away.

''Do you have your ID card with you?'' Ferit asked.

''I am yet to go to get my ID card. It got missing''

''Alright, you can use my ID card, but register the phone number in her name''

''Madam, would you like to customize your phone number?''

''Can I do that?'' Ozge asked with a confused expression. Ferit found her expression cute and chuckled.

''This feature came out a year ago, were you in a cave all this while?''

Ozge flushed and her face became red. She moved closer to the counter and looked at the series of available numbers.

''010 1408 058, will these numbers do?'' Ozge looked at the sales boy and asked.

''Sure, these numbers are a set of unique numbers. Are You a Leo? You chose the…''

''Can you just make the number out of the digits and not ask me about my private life?'' Ozge asked and the sales boy nodded and apologized.

''My apologies''

Amanda turned and ran to a stall. She picked a set of phone covers and ran back, ''daddy, Mammy, let's buy this and use them. Anyone who sees us will know right away that we are a family''

''Add this to the tab'' Ferit told the sales boy.

….

Ozge looked at the phone as Ferit drove the car. Amanda stretched her neck out and looked at Ozge asking, ''Mammy, your number is my birthday. Did you purposefully choose that because of me?''

''You are thinking too much. Amanda. I was also born on 14 August so I just picked it since it's easier to memorize''

''No, I mean 5th August. I was born on the 5th of August''

''Oo, I didn't know''

''Where do you stay? I will send you home since it's late''

''I…''

''That is an order as your boss. I am doing this to protect my employee''

Ozge looked at him and answered, ''A. S Apartment Complex''

Ferit's fingers around the wheel paused and he smiled subtly. Turns out she was the doctor Uncle Temi was talking about? His lips curved into a more visible smile.

''Daddy, why are you smiling?'' Amanda asked.

''Nothing, let's go!''

Ozge looked at him before turning her gaze to the phone. She was trying to figure it out. It has been closed to a year since she used a phone. She felt like a novice now.

After driving for a while, Ferit arrived at the apartment complex and pulled over into the parking space. He turned to Ozge who was looking at the phone with Amanda.

''We are here'' he said to them.

Ozge looked outside before getting down. She saw Ferit and Amanda getting down with her and she looked confused.

''This is where I stay'' she said to Ferit.

''Mammy, this is where daddy and I also stay'' Amanda answered.

''Huh?'' Ozge looked at Ferit.
