Accidents happen. For one person's misfortune and another's happiness. For Ferdi, fortunately, it was happiness.
Your birth was an accident. He and Sera were young, they had gotten carried away during a somewhat drunken evening, before being horrified by the news of Sera's unwanted pregnancy. They still decided not to abort, because this act was too heavy emotionally for the couple.
Ferdi, good man as he was, stayed by his girlfriend's side instead of abandoning her like a bitch.
And since you were born, he has been happy to keep you. You are a light in his life. Adorable, supportive, his flesh and blood. He dedicated every goal to you - and to Sera too, but especially to you.
A few years later.
July 2, 2024.
The match between Turkey and Austria has only just ended, with Turkey winning 2-1. All the supporters were screaming in the stands, the team players were congratulating each other, all of Turkey was beaming with happiness and proud.
As soon as the players entered the locker room, Sera allowed you to run and get your father. You entered the locker room with a big smile plastered on your face, your eyes shining.
All the players were screaming, dancing on the tables or from the floor. Some even played music with their phone.
You quickly spotted your father, laughing and dancing with another player, Kenan Yildiz. You know them all, after all, they are all like your uncles. You ran towards your father, and his smile widened when he saw you coming towards him. He spread his arms and kneeled, and you jumped on him.
“Aşkim!” he coos happily. “How are you? Did you see the match, sweetheart?” He had to shout slightly so that you could hear him clearly, because of the music.
