Harold Bennett\u2019\u0131n cenaze t\u00f6reninin ard\u0131ndan, bir elinde k\u00e2\u011f\u0131t bardaktaki so\u011fuk kahveyle kalakalan bana do\u011fru yakla\u015fan avukat\u0131 fark ettim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ba\u015f\u0131m\u0131 sallad\u0131m. \u00dczerinde ad\u0131m\u0131n yaz\u0131l\u0131 oldu\u011fu m\u00fch\u00fcrl\u00fc bir zarf uzatt\u0131. \u00abHarold, t\u00f6renden hemen sonra bunu size vermemi tembihlemi\u015fti.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hen\u00fcz elimi uzatamadan, y\u0131llard\u0131r u\u011framayan o\u011flu Mark araya girdi. \u00abO da ne?\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00abNora han\u0131ma yaz\u0131lm\u0131\u015f \u00f6zel bir mektup,\u00bb dedi avukat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mark, sanki haks\u0131z bir kazan\u00e7 elde etmi\u015fim gibi g\u00f6zlerini y\u00fcz\u00fcme dikti. Bir an i\u00e7in ellerim titredi. Eski al\u0131\u015fkanl\u0131\u011f\u0131m hemen kendini hat\u0131rlatt\u0131: bir ad\u0131m geri \u00e7ekilmek, huzuru bozmamak ve olay \u00e7\u0131karmamak. Ama zarf\u0131n \u00fczerinde Harold\u2019\u0131n kendi el yaz\u0131s\u0131yla benim ad\u0131m yaz\u0131yordu. Zarf\u0131 ald\u0131m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mark\u2019\u0131n y\u00fcz\u00fc gerildi. \u00abBunu g\u00f6rmek ger\u00e7ekten komik. Birka\u00e7 kap s\u0131cak yemek getirmek insan\u0131 ne zamandan beri aileden yap\u0131yor?\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mektubu g\u00f6\u011fs\u00fcme bast\u0131rarak g\u00f6zlerinin i\u00e7ine bakt\u0131m. \u00abYapmaz Mark,\u00bb dedim sakince. \u00abAma en zor zamanlarda orada, yan\u0131 ba\u015f\u0131nda olmak yapar.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sadaka kabul etmezdi ama \u00e7orbay\u0131 ald\u0131. Ertesi g\u00fcn bo\u015f kaseyi geri getirirken \u00e7orban\u0131n fazla karabiberli oldu\u011fundan \u015fikayet etti. Her \u015fey b\u00f6yle ba\u015flad\u0131: \u00e7orbalar, ila\u00e7lar, k\u00fc\u00e7\u00fck ayak i\u015fleri… Ve yaln\u0131z olmad\u0131klar\u0131n\u0131 birbirlerinden saklamaya \u00e7al\u0131\u015fan iki inat\u00e7\u0131 insan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
