Yusuf's house was not far away.They approached it soon.Davit observed the house meticulously.It was big,built from bricks.The house was tall and spacious,but with only one floor.When Davit and Yusuf entered inside,little boy looked around and noticed many doors.There were plenty of rooms in this house.There were red and green carpets decorated with eastern ornaments on the floor.While Davit was observing,a woman came in from the kitchen.Little curious didn't miss this moment and looked at the middle-aged woman.She had long,braided dark brown hair and hazel eyes.To Davit,she seemed very nice person.As soon as she saw the stranger,the woman smiled at him.
-Oh,how adorable little boy he is!Who is he,my darling?
-The thugs sold him to me for 10 thousand Kurush.He is now my son.
-Why so much money in exchange for him?
-He is of rare bloodline.In other words,he is Georgian.You know,that he was esteemed greatly for his appearance.
-I see,dear!What's your name?
-Davit.
-What a beautiful name it is!Your name means beloved.Did you know?
-No,how would I?Even my parents didn't tell me.
-So you will be loved and you will love.I will become your mother.Will you accept me?
-Yes,I will.I have no other option anyway.
-You speak unlikely of your age.How old are you?
-5.
-Only 5?I thought,that you were at least 8 years old.I mean,usually the ones who are 5,can't speak like you.You must have spoken to Yusuf like an adult.Am I right,Yusuf?
-Yeah,darling!
-My name is Zehra.It means flower.In Ottoman empire,nobody will allow you to have birth name if you came here as a slave.
-So,will you have to change my name?
-Unfortunately.You will become muslim tomorrow and the imam will name you himself.Now,let's go to the dining room.Both of you must be exhausted and hungry,aren't you?
-We are,Zehra.Please,lay the table and we will wash our hands.
Davit had dinner with his new parents.He told Zehra everything about his family.After having the meal,Davit voluntarily helped his new mother in cooking the breakfast for the following day.3 hours passed and the whole family went to bed.Davit slept in the separate room,next to his new parents' room.
