Twelve years later, I was living in a villa and preparing for the evening. This month was the month of the sultan of the eleven months and I invited all my secondary school friends. Today, I also invited my cousin to visit us from Italy, because she knew my secondary school friends. Iftar was approaching and I completed all the preparations.

I was excitedly waiting for my friends and my cousin cooked various dishes. The bell rang and I saw my best friend Elif Naz at the door, I missed her so much and I hugged her as soon as I saw her. Then all my school friends and cousins came. Together we remembered the memories. It was time for iftar, everyone gathered around the table and the call to prayer was heard, everyone broke their fast with dates and started to eat other dishes.
After we finished our meal, I said to my friends and cousin, "Let's go for a walk in the woods". They said "OK". We left the house and entered the forest. Everyone started to get a little scared because very strange noises were heard from the forest. While walking, a snake got entangled in my cousin's feet, but since we had a knife with us, we killed the snake and continued our way. While walking down the path, we found a bottle and opened it. It was a treasure map. We wanted to find out if this was true, but some of the group wanted to go home. So, we went on, as there were more people who voted for it and wanted to find the treasure. We were wondering if the treasure was true.
We kept going on the road and the road opened into a pyramid. We tried to enter this pyramid, but we couldn't. He looked at the map again and there was the clue how to get into the pyramid. It said on the map, "If you want to enter the pyramid, hold something like a fire on it". We thought and thought. Then, Elif Naz shouted “Torch Torch” and everyone started to hold the torches around the pyramid, and finally, when Hümeyra pulled a torch, the door opened. We walked in and everyone paid attention as it could be a trap. Before we started to go, we took a stone and threw it inside to see if it was dark inside or if the lights would turn on as we went. When we threw a stone, it was bright ahead but the stone started a trap, arrows were being shot from everywhere. That's why we took stones with us. And we were trying to throw stones everywhere and open the traps so that we wouldn't get caught in the traps. There was a door at the end, but it was closed. There were pictures on the door and we tried to understand these pictures. But we had an archaeologist with us, named Zeynep Beyza Güngör. Maybe you know her.
She read the writings to us and said, “Behind the ivy around the door”. Everyone started looking around the door and Zeynep found the ivy and found a key behind it. She inserted the key into the hole and the door opened. Inside the room was a huge shiny diamond. İrem wanted to take this diamond immediately, but when she took that diamond, everything started to collapse and two stone guards woke up. Those two guards were trying to catch us. The door was about to close, but we managed to get out before the door closed. Then we left the pyramid and went home and gave the diamond to the museum. Our name appeared in newspapers and magazines. After that, we agreed to meet at least once a month. This story ends here but our adventures will continue.
