ASI

Episode 14

I never in my entire life was after big profits.

And I never had to loan anything from anyone.

As you know I have this ranch that I inherited from my father.

I hold on to it and made my family live here.

I worked on those fields and we were living a peaceful life.

And I never thought that my family and I would end up in such a situation.

You knew what was happening and warned me but I didn't want to listen.

Because I didn't believe that a close friend like Bulent would ever get himself in such business.

And now it is time for me to pay you the last part of my debt.

Even if I'm already too late.

That's not important.

Because of me, my daughter got herself in an nasty situation with an odd person.

And that's why I thought of a way to solve this.

Of course, if you agree with it.

The solution is that I will work at your land and pay my debts to you in that way.

Finally someone is here, no one not even Demir is here.

Our neighbor mister Ihsan came to us. He came to thank Demir for what he did.

And now they are talking about something in private.

Of course we need to sit down so we can make an agreement on how to handle both farms.

Of course Asi will be with me to help me with this.

I don't doubt your work mister Ihsan.

Of course the profit that we will make will be yours

and like that I will be able to pay my debt to you.

If you agree with this

the ranch will be mine again and I will be very thankful and grateful to you.

You don't have to answer me right now, think about it for now.

You decide.

I promise you that I will think about it.

Asi, your father is back

you should be happy, why are you upset?

And how are you doing?

Very good uncle Ihsan. Especially because you're here.

You put your lives in danger. I don't know how to thank you.

You're welcome. This is the least we could do for you.

Asi, shall we go now?

Mister Ihsan.

Is it possible for us to come visit you? And if it's okay then as soon as possible?

We will see. Okay of course. Good bye.

Did he mean it's okay?

Kenan, how could you do that?

How could you make an agreement with my father over Asi?

You also made me a promise aunt Neriman.

Tell me who's idea was it?

The idea of my father or was it your idea?

One who would trust such a stupid agreement for a serious marriage, of course he will end up this way.

I need fresh air.

Or else I will suffocate.

Kenan, what's wrong? You look a bit pale are you sick?

Mother you're awesome, you knew how to handle this situation so well.

We heard everything.

Yes.

Aren't you going to ask me what me and Demir talked about?

I was waiting for you to tell me.

The behavior of that guy made me have an other opinion about him.

His support in our difficult situation gave me motivation.
I asked him to work together.

What kind of work?

I offered to work at his lands for my last debt.

This is the only way I can pay my debt to him.

Did he accept?

He wants to think about it.

If he is really trustful, he will accept and won't say no.

The offer is good because he has no knowledge about the fields.

I told him you would help me with the job but I didn't really asked you.

You don't need to ask me father.

I can be only with you, you know that.

And when you brought up my name, did he say anything?

Nothing, why are you asking?

I don't know. I just wanted to ask you.

Is there anything you would like to tell me?

Tell me the truth, didn't you like this work offer with Demir?

No, it's not like that but

lately he has a bad opinion about me.

Because of Kenan?

He told me to wait but he didn't tell me he went to get Bulent.

When the bail was going to be paid he thought I accepted the proposal of Kenan.

What do you mean? Isn't that the case?

Of course I didn't accept it father.

Ihsan offered you to cooperate or not?

I hope this will happen.

Asi will come everyday to our place.

Did you make an agreement?
-I want to think about it.

Are they going to give up their ranch?

I have no knowledge about farming and they are in a bad situation.

I don't know, it is a difficult situation.

When I was a child

I would go over to my sister and help her with whatever I could.

After that, they hired me to work there,

And I worked for years at their farm,

Giving food to the animals, milking the cows... I endured a lot of things that no one would endure.

And now Ihsan is going to work for us.

We must not think that way.

It's better if we think of it as, mister Ihsan being a great help for us.

And the agreement between us must stay a secret.

Accept it Demir, at the end of this, you might bow down to Ihsan.

Because you consider his feelings a lot.

Everything went its way, I didn't plan it.

But I will.

It seems like you don't remember the reason you came here now, do you?

Look at yourself, you don't even know what you want anymore.

The only thing I want is to forget the past.

But you keep on reminding me of it aunt.

This is the difference between us.

Mister Ihsan, mister Ihsan.

This time you got lucky and you got saved,
let's see the next time what you will be able to do.

This guy is so bad but

at the end he came out good and I'm the one who is bad.

Look, the girls and their mother are gone now, you can have your peace back.

We will look each other in the face all day until we will see what to do.

Miss Neriman always wanted to be the center of the attention.

I left her the house here but it was not enough, she is always upset. What can I do?

Neriman is happy when she can do everything herself, she is used to that.

She could do whatever she wanted, who even stopped her?

You spoil her too much Cemel aga.

Of course, she is my only daughter. What's wrong? Are you jealous of Neriman?

For me, you're something else.

You see this mansion? Without you it has no meaning.

I made this especially for you. It's Mandolin liqueur.

Drink this cup and tell me what you think about it.

Mandolin liqueur.

Do you remember when you taught me French? Yes.

Let me see if I remember it.

Would you like to dance with me? (in French).

With all pleasure mister. (In French)

Don't you remember the songs that I taught you Cemel aga?

Do you think her story began under a Mandolin tree or under a orange tree?

I'm going to find out.

In the past, we were the one who lost Demir.

And now it is their turn. Isn't that what you wanted aunt?

Are you happy?

You're talking to me like I'm the one to blame.

No one is holding you.

Go and give Ihsan his ranch back without anything in return.

Don't abandon him.

I don't care anymore.

Why are you fighting?

Mister Ihsan has offered me to work together with both ranches so he can pay off his last debt.

What was your answer?

He wants to pay his debt and this is the only solution he found.

I didn't want to tell him anything. Because I hoped I would find a better solution than that.

Don't try Demir, he won't accept.

He is too proud, he got himself into this mess just to pay you the money.

And he is going to be my father-in-law.

I won't abandon him. If you ask me accept his offer.

We need to go and ask the hand of Defne for marriage.

I want to get it over with before an other disaster will happen.

Kenan called a couple of times today and asked for you.

Didn't he say what he wanted from me?

Miss Neriman had a fight with him about Asi.

He was very upset, I think that's why he wants to talk to you.

So because Neriman is angry with him

he thinks he can come and blame me for it, look how he thinks.

Did he told you where he is staying these days?
-He didn't tell me. But I think he is staying with his friends.

Why does he have any friends?

Abdelrahmen, good, he is always hungry.

Adil, he is very rich. Azim, who is he? Do you know him?

He is your friend who never takes his hat off his head. Every time he comes he wears the same one.

Okay, okay. I remember him, invite him also.

Why are you reading the names of all your friends?

Just do as I told you. You must call all of them and invite them over for dinner tonight.

Don't interfere with the rest.

Don't forget to tell Kenan.

Where is Ceylan? I haven't seen her.
-Now that you're back dear father, she is regaining all her sleep.

We overcome a big problem. Let us celebrate because of that.

The most difficult part was that I was far away from you all.

And now you're all next to me, what more can I ask for?

I was looking forward to this moment.

Yes, I will find a solution for the money Neriman.

I have one more loan and if I pay that one than we'll have no debts anymore.

I went and talked to Demir today. Asi knows about it, I offered him to work together.

I told him I will work at his ranch and with the profit of the culture, I will pay my debts.

If Demir will accept of course.

So you're not obligated to give him money father.

So every day you will go to the ranch of miss Suheyla?

If you have an other solution, tell me and I will do it.

Come on girls, aren't you going to sleep?

Come on girls. Good night.

You're all very tired. Good night.

Goodnight father.

Goodnight father. Goodnight. Goodnight dear father. Goodnight.

I'm very tired.

Come and lie next to me.

Can't you find an other solution Ihsan?

Isn't it possible if you don't go to their farm?

I thought about it and I didn't find any other solution. But if you have an other solution please tell me.

Do you think I'm happy about the fact that I will work at other peoples farms.

I hope we will get over this very fast.

I know that Suheyla used to work at your farm in the past.

Did you had an relationship with her? Ihsan why don't you say something?

Why are you asking me such questions Neriman?

We couldn't visit you in jail but Suheyla could.

Why did she visited you?

For what reason did she visited you? Why aren't you answering me if there is nothing between you two?

Because you're not answering me, that means my feelings are right about this.

Please Neriman, you should know how tired I am.

Let me sleep a bit, we will talk about it tomorrow okay?

Where are you going?
-I'm going to sleep with the girls.

Neriman come back.
-Good night.

Wait, wait, where are you going Neriman...

Mother, what's wrong?
-Move aside.

Ceylan, why did you came?

Is mother going to sleep here?

Ceylan go to your room.
-You had a fight with father.

I could hear you from my room.

Are you going to divorce each other?
-Ceylan what kind of talk is that?

Sister please tell them not to divorce.

To your room and fast, I don't want to see you in front of me.

Don't you dare ask me anything.
Do you understand me?

Where is Kerim? Isn't he coming with me?
-I saw him leave.

He was in a hurry and went that way.

Let's hope for the best.

Good morning, am I disturbing you all?

Good morning.

Welcome Kerim.

I'm sure it's something urgent.
Go ahead, I'm listening.

We want to come by tomorrow evening

to ask the hand of Defne in marriage if you have no problem with that.

Ihsan why don't you say something? The kid is waiting for your answer.

Come father.
-Son in law.

I also came for the same reason.

This guy is coming-going from your house.

I wanted to tell you to do something about it or else I will handle it.

What did he say? What did your father say?

We didn't hear anything, so I don't think they said anything.

Okay son, tomorrow evening we will be waiting for you to pay us a visit.

Okay we will be waiting.

They can come to my house and ask for her hand son in law.

Here is better, it's the house of the girl but you can do what is best for you.

Isn't it that the two of us are responsible for these girls?

And I'm the eldest. That's why I mean.

We will be waiting for you her in our home. Isn't that right Neriman?

Yes.

Sit down Kerim.

No one told me to sit down.

I must leave, I must tell them immediately about our visit.

Good bye.

"Condol Condol".

Don't you forget the Condol.

What "Condol"???

If you will come tomorrow, you must bring "Condol" flowers with you, listen to me.

You live in the city, so you don't know anything about our customs.

Good bye. Goodbye.

Good bye.

Girls, come with me.

<i>"If you will excuse me, we want to come tomorrow and ask the hand of Defne in marriage!"</i>

And don't forget about the Condol.

Grandpa told a lot of stuff about my father and look now

he came and took a seat in the living room as if it's his own house.

Anyway we don't want to talk about that kind of stuff right now.

Now we have something more important.

You were planning on getting Asi married but Defne went first.

I'm not angry at you because you didn't helped me

So don't worry Cemel aga.

I'm very happy that you didn't bail me out of prison.

I was hoping <i>you</i> wouldn't pay it.

And I'm sure you also know why I didn't want to help you, right?

It's better if we don't open that subject Cemel aga.

Listen to those laughters inside

if you really want to always hear them laugh, you must tell me what happened between you and Suheyla right now.

What's this? Are you threatening me with the happiness of my family?

You're meeting up with her secretly

and now you're telling me your family?

Cemel aga watch your words. You don't know nothing.

And you're talking nonsense.

There is nothing left that I don't know about you.

When you were in jail I wasn't just sitting around.

And still I came here to hear the truth from you.

Kenan made an agreement with you about Asi father, how could you do that?

How could you sell your granddaughter for some pieces of land?

Did you really did that Cemel aga?

Do you really believe that I was going to let that idiot marry her?

Look now, he has fallen into the gap he dug himself.

One who throws himself like that on the person is an idiot who has no brains.

If I didn't used that kind of people, I wouldn't have become Cemel aga.

Asi, this is getting serious. What should I do?

Tomorrow they will come and ask my hand, right?

And after that am I going to get married immediately?

So I'm going to live with Kerim in one house.

And I will make him coffee in the early morning.

I can't believe that we're going to live together.

I can't imagine Kerim in a pajama.

Well don't imagine him in pajama then.

There are a lot of things I still don't know about him. How will he be at home?

Is he decent or messy?

And what if he asks me to live with miss Suheyla?

No, he won't do that.

I would try to get along with her just for his sake, I mean she is kind of my mother in law.

But if she tries to bother me, I won't shut my mouth this time.

Don't worry Kerim and Demir will not let her do anything like that.

He shouldn't have to hurry with this kind of things. Did you see how fast he ran over to the farm of mister Ihsan? And even made an appointment with them?

I'm not surprised, from the day he saw that girl he got blind.

Do you really think Kerim can change?

Can he be responsible for his home and family?

Even if I would see him with my own eyes I wouldn't believe it.

Let's hope we're wrong or else Defne will not be happy with their life together.

I mean why do the guys at the end love to marry a simple girl like Defne?

Maybe because they can boss them easily that's the only explanation I have.

I'm sure after all the experience he had he is now looking for a serious relationship.

I'm sure he will regret it after he gets married.

After that he will return to his old life.

And that's what I'm afraid off.

The last thing I expected is to become in laws with that family.

But unfortunately Kerim doesn't listen to anyone about this subject.

I heard that Kerim

promised his girlfriend that after he will finish his work here he will go back to her.

He never called her again seems like he changed his mind.

Did she talked to you about it?
-Yes, she called me today.

What I understood is that he promised her as soon as he would go back to Istanbul they will be together again.

But she doesn't believe him, you know how he is.

Do you think I would upset my only daughter?
Do you think I can leave before she's happy again?

That's impossible.

The marriage of Defne, leave that up to me.

I'm Cemel aga, I will throw her a party so everyone will still talk about it after 100 years.

And like that we will forget all our madness and angriness.

So you won't be angry with me anymore.

Grandpa, I have a very big problem.

Tell me your problem my dear Ceylan.

Aslan took my guitar and sold it.

How could Aslan put his hand on your guitar?
What do you think, should I hit him with my cane?

Grandpa I want you to buy me a new guitar.

First ask your father if your mother also agrees I will get you one.

If not it's not possible.

But grandpa, it will have a bad influence on my music career.

May God protect your music career.

See you soon.

Mother.

Can Leyla and I come with you to Defne's house?

I don't know we need to ask aunt because she knows the customs.

You arranged everything, you don't need me.

I can't come along and ask the hand of a family member of Kozcuoglu.

Who will do it than?

I can't go over there.

If you really want to get married

why don't you call your parents. Isn't it better if they go and ask her hand?

My mother and my father don't care about these things.

You know that we don't have any contact with them anymore.

Me and my sister are your responsibility.

you treated us like your own children and raised us.

You didn't made a difference between us, Demir and Melek.

And now at the most important time of my life you want to leave me alone?

Get well soon dude. I heard you're a hero.

I hope he gets well soon Okkes.
You have brought up a great son.

Thank you Cemel aga.

Bravo you crossed the border and got to Bulent and no one was able to stop you.

I hope he gets well soon miss Fatma.
-Thank you.

I know very well the reason that your son put his life into danger for my son in law.

The story is too big to talk about it right now.

I wanted to talk to you about something Okkes. Come.

At this farm, you're one of the people after Ihsan who has lived here the longest Okkes.

That's why I want to ask you about someone.

Yasemine.

Did you forget her? She used to help the midwife Emine with the birth of children.

Who is she? I don't remember her.

But she does remember you. A long time ago a child was born at this ranch and you were present.

And they wanted to get rid of that child, do you remember now?

I don't know anything Cemel aga.

A lot of children were born here in this farm, I don't keep a track on them. How should I remember?

Brother you're back early today.
-Didn't we say we would go out for dinner?

Are you ready? Good.

Where did Kerim go this morning? I didn't seen him from the morning. Did he go to Defne?

Correct. But when he came back he had a fight with aunt. And now he is in the garden.

Why didn't you come to work? So you leave all the work to me?

If you weren't coming. At least give me a phone call.

Don't you start also.

You're upset.

What's up?

Didn't they give you the girl?
-It's not time for your jokes.

Aunt Suheyla does not want to come with me.

She told me to ask my father and mother.

I don't have a father and mother.

She is everything to me.

My whole life she has treated me like her son.

And now at the most important time of my life she abandoned me.

It's not easy for her at all.

Let's wait and see, I will talk to her.

Come stand up. The girls are waiting for us, we're going out to have dinner. It will do us good.

I'm going to take a walk with Defne.

Okay girls.

I'm sure you couldn't sleep because you weren't by my side.

Not true. I slept very well together with my girls.

Do you think this is suitable for us at this age?
-Why? What is wrong with our age?

We have been married for a long time now.

You're my sweet darling.

If you really want me to have rest, you won't go and work at the ranch of Suheyla.

You don't have to be jealous Neriman.

I'm only doing this so I can get rid of my debts.

I still didn't get any answer from Demir.

Then tell me why did she visited you in jail?

I asked you yesterday and I will keep on asking you.

I want you to clarify this for me.

She just came, I was also surprised.
What should I have done tell her to leave?

Listen don't start about this anymore, we have other problems to think about.

This is not the right time.

Where are the girls?
-They went for a walk.

What are you waiting for?
Come on, let's go take a walk just like them.

What? Walk in this cold?

Come on, we'll catch up with the girls.

Let's have a family walk all together. I missed that.

Let's see, maybe the air is full of romance today.

Defne! Asi!

When we were living in the farm that Demir bought, I was still a little girl.

A young girl and I would take a walk and go to your farm and say to myself

'I hope when I grow up I will live in a farm just like this'

For these lands you went to jail Ihsan, is it worth it?

Now I know how much these fields mean to you.

Your father knows very well what he wants

and you also need to know what you want and fight for your dreams girls.

Are you going to stop?

I won't talk to them about that subject. I just want to say hello.

Hello. Hello.

We're going to the city. We want to take Leyla out for dinner.

Welcome girl.
-Thank you.

We were just walking a bit.

Hello, how are you?

I thought about your proposal and I think it's a good one.

If you want, we can come together tomorrow morning and make a plan mister Ihsan.

The lands that we don't use, we can work on them together so we can profit from them.

We'll talk about it tomorrow morning.

We don't want to keep you any longer.

Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening.

Mister Fetih, tell me is your son still working at the city hall?

He is the manager there, madame, the manager.

Bravo. Mister Mustafa, how is Aicha doing? Did she give birth already or not?

No, not yet.

<i>Cemel aga doesn't just invite people like that, I'm sure there is something behind this invitation.</i>

<i>I'm curious about the reason.</i>

<i>The last time he invited us was when we were about to vote.</i>

<i>He made an agreement with the mayor and we didn't understand nothing. Afterwards we did.</i>

Girl, go and get us another plate and put it on the table.

Okay mister.

Nothing is better than to gather all of my friends and family.

With this occasion I would like to introduce you to the German Kenan

He has been here for a while but didn't had time to get to know you all.

Kenan came to look for lands of the family.

He doesn't like their circumstances.

Is this Kenan, the son of Ali?
-Yes, you're right, he is his son.

We were looking for him what a coincidence.

They own a lot of our lands.

First solve my problem

Let us solve the problem of that piece of land that is in your name for years now.

And after that you talk to the German about your problem.

No matter what we do, we will not solve the issues of these lands.

If you want to open the old books, I will be the one who will profit from this all, just like the last time.

But I gathered you for an other reason.

Someone came and is asking the hand of my granddaughter Defne.

This is a matter that concerns our family, we must show off in front of the rest.

Everyone must do what he can do of course what he is possible of doing.

Of course we will do our best. Of course, of course.

Don't you worry Cemel aga.

I couldn't find any properly. Where can I find them Fetih?

You can accept them as my present Cemel aga.

Abdulharman who will make the tableware for us?

Only you could do it but now you don't do this job anymore.

Don't you worry Cemel aga, I have a nephew who does the same job.

One telephone call and you will have them within two days.

I now understand that you're the winner.

I underestimated you.

Were the machines sold or not?
-They're here mister Ihsan.

Aslan hide them when the bailiff came.

Tomorrow we will bring them and place them again.

Thank you, you took take care of everything while I was away.

What are you saying mister Ihsan? This is also our ranch.

Okkes, from tomorrow we will start working together on Demir's ranch.

We must, this is the only way I can get rid of my debts.

Are we a burden for you mister Ihsan?

Tell me the truth, I can go and look for a job at another ranch.

Didn't you just tell me that this is also your ranch?

We started to work at this ranch together.

You can't leave us that easily.

But maybe it will be better if I left this place.

Cemel aga found the woman who was helping the midwife. The woman still remembers me mister Ihsan.

That's why it's better if I leave.

We will talk about this later.

I want to discuss this marriage thing with you once again. What's wrong with that?

Why are you upset Kerim?
-Stop Leyla

You're still talking about this as if you forget that I already made an appointment with them.

I'm trying to help you, I don't want you to regret it after you get married.

I'm only asking that you respect the decision that I made Leyla.

Kerim is going to a tough time

if you will get to know Defne, you will understand him.

I know Kerim very well and that is enough for me.

He changes his girls more easily than he changes his shirts.

I used to be like this but why don't you understand that I have changed Leyla?

That was my past.

If you regret it and want to go back to your old habits, it will be too late.

You just think about a way to get along with Defne or else we will not sit at the same table and eat again.

Excuse me.

Yes, what you have heard is correct.

He is in love with a girl here and wants to get married with her.

As you want. Okay goodbye.

I'm fine, don't you worry.
But I'm right to be afraid, am I not?

Do you have any doubts?

I never had a fight with him this bad. Not once.

I know that you're worried about him but don't over react.

If he files for divorce after a couple of days, don't be surprised.

At first I thought the same as you.

I didn't believe it.

But now I totally changed my mind.

I think Kerim made the right decision.

He really loves Defne a lot, I'm sure of it.

Good.

Come on, let's go inside.

Goodnight.

I don't want you to be angry with me.

Come on get your coat, I will take you somewhere.

And there we will talk about everything you want.

Give me a moment, I will be ready in a bit.

I'm really upset because you think that I abandoned you.

It's time to tell you everything so you can understand me Kerim.

Good morning mister Ihsan.
-Thank you

Mister Demir will be here any minute.

What's your opinion Asi?

Leyla there are workers outside. Don't come outside like this again.

How many workers do you have mister Arif?

Your workers and ours are more than enough miss Asi.

Mister Demir has come.

Welcome.
-Thank you.
-Come.

We'll sit in the garden. I arranged a table there

so we can talk about the details.

Do you now understand why I don't want to go to that ranch?

Are you still sure you want to get married?

Look, Demir could bring you back here.

I know this is difficult for you aunt Suheyla.

But you came back to these lands.

Maybe the past was too harsh on you.

But you must try to forget so you can have peace.

If it wasn't for you, how could I ever have met Defne?

So you and Demir are the reason for my happiness.

I will not ask you again, I promise.
I can go alone and ask the hand of Defne.

I don't want to see you upset because of me.

I took a look at the area in my opinion the state of those lands are very good.

You were thinking about working together with the lands of both ranches.

Are you still thinking about doing the same?

When the ranch got sold to you we canceled that idea.
-What do you think if we continue with that idea?

Asi, let's take Demir to the lands so he can have a look.

I want to say something and I want you to listen.

Mister Ihsan is in charge.

We must do everything he says.

Because he is the one who has the most knowledge.

To be honest I am very lucky that he wants to take care of my lands.

Thank you for your compliment but I think you forgot to mention Asi.

Asi's knowledge of the lands and the conditions of the fields are starting to get better than mine.

And she is also helping us.

If mister Demir will listen to me, I will explain everything to him.

I'm going with Arif to the village mister Ihsan.

We need to arrange the water flow again.

Okay Okkes.

Good luck. Good luck.

We can also go and take a look at the lands.

Come on Asi.

Welcome.
-Hello.

Welcome.
-Thank you.

Hello. How are you?

Dear welcome.
-Thank you.

How are you? I came so tell me everything.

This area is so beautiful, isn't it?

Welcome.
-Hello Kerim.

What are you doing here?

Welcome.
-Hello.
-Thank you.

I heard you're getting married Kerim.
Look, we came all the way from Istanbul just to congratulate you.

Don't be afraid. I didn't came here to fight with you.

Come on, let's go inside.
-Okay

I'm so glad to see you, I missed you dear Leyla.

Calm down Fatma. What's wrong? Why are you in a hurry?

I'm really nervous miss Neriman. They will come tonight.

And we need to make everything ready and nice for the girl.

What should we do we will make it...

Where are the eggs? Fatma, don't we have any eggs?

Maybe we have one or two but I don't think it will be enough miss Neriman.

Miss Neriman.

Cemel aga sent this, where should I put them?

Put them here. Here is fine.

Thank you.

Why did he send all those? Who will eat all of that?

Did he invite people and didn't tell us?
-No Fatma.

Father likes to exaggerate with these kind of things.

It's a show for him, a show.

Mother, I think my heart is going to stop.

And my feet can't hold me anymore. How am I going to survive this day?

Your daughter is afraid, take her outside and talk to her for a while.

Why did you come here now?

Go and take a walk.

Or go upstairs and search what you will wear.

Come on go, don't keep standing in front of me like that.

The best thing you can do is get us some eggs, come on.

Yes of course.

Go and don't be nervous. Come on girl.

The food my father send us are very nice.

Asi investigated these lands just before you bought them.

Its soil is rich, full and easy.

Tomorrow we will try our new way.

The soil is very rich and full but it needs to get some air.

We can plant grapes if you want.

Or even vegetables.

Arif told me about the disease and the bugs that infects the grain.

I didn't understand a thing. But I understood that Sevinc is responsible for that.

Yes, of course she is a expert.

Mister Ihsan you just tell me what you need

and I will explain to Sevinc how she can pay for everything.

Why don't you let father handle all those things?

And I will help him with everything so the work will go correctly.

That's not necessary Sevinc will take care of it.

You don't have to insist we will do as Demir tells us.

But I can't just sit around and do nothing Father.

Asi, Demir is thinking the right way.
Everyone will do what suits him the best.

Mister Ihsan if you will excuse me, I need to talk to you.

Demir, what's wrong?
Why are you keeping me away from this?

What am I doing here?
-You know what to do.

I don't need to tell you that. That's why I'm not telling you what to do.

We saw what happened when I did.

If you will excuse me, I need to go back to my work. There is nothing left to do here.

You can't just leave like that without telling me anything.

Demir, do you hear me?

Why are you treating me like this?

I called you more than once when we crossed the border. I told you to wait for me.

I told you that I would take care of everything. But you didn't wait for me.

I couldn't understand a word you were saying.

The line was very bad.

Where you were going? What you were going to do? I didn't know.

Demir, if I knew you were going to rescue my father

I wouldn't have waited, I would have come with you.

It wasn't certain yet.

I didn't want to tell you that I was going because of your father.

Because it was a difficult thing.

And I didn't want to promise you something that I wasn't sure of.

But you, from day one, you've refused my help.

While others were asking something in return, you still refuged my help.

And the most important thing is you didn't trust me.

And that's why I can't trust you anymore Asi.

This place is even better than what I expected.

How could you not tell us about it and invite us over?

You're living in this great environment

while we were locked up over there. Shame on you.

I'm just like you, if I didn't came on my own no one would have invited me.

I would have called you over.

Girls, first thing we need to do is to get to know this place

what do you think?

Kerim, you're so quite. It seems like this marriage really changed you.

No, not at all. But there is something very important I need to do.

If you will excuse me I need to go. Leyla come with me for a while.

How could you do that Leyla? I don't understand why you needed to tell her.

I told her?
-Why else did she come?

I didn't tell her. I'm sure she heard it from someone else and came to make sure if it's true.

Do I need to remove her? Yes.

If Defne sees her, I will have a lot of problems.

Just give me a ride until the end of the ranch.

Kerim don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. I just want to walk a little nothing will happen.

Kerim needs to snap out of this and get back to his old life.

But it's not fair towards Nida.

You don't have to worry about Nida, she will get to him.

What's wrong with you?
-What's wrong what do you mean?

You changed a lot, I don't even recognize you anymore.

Not so long ago you would do a thousand things just so I would stay with you.

Did you forget about everything here?
-I wanted to call you and explain.

You always say that but you never call. What has changed you so much?

We used to have fun together a lot or did you forget?

That was in the past.

Okay if you think our relation is over

than for me it's also over.

But we were so happy, it was really a great time we had together.

Nida please.

What did I do? Why are you saying that?

I really don't believe what I'm seeing in front of me.

You remember when we were together, you would always have your hands all over me.

There were also a lot of other girls in my life and you knew that.

But you would always come back to me.
-Linda please understand.

I want to start a new life.

I want to start a family.

Stop, stop. I want to get out here.

No, no, no! This can't be happening.

I don't think you're from around here.

That's true I came to visit my friends.

Do you know Demir Dogan? I'm a friend of Kerim.

Who are you? I live in the ranch next to them.

We're neighbors. Nice, that means we have friends in common.

Than you also must know Kerim.

Of course I know him.

A whole different person, that Kerim.

His whole life he has been a successful business man

who traveled and worked his whole life. And suddenly his life has been turned upside down.

He is saying after he came here to this place he wants to settle down and start a family.

He wants to buy a little ranch and live a life like a farmer. Can you believe it?

It seems as you know him for a long time.

If I didn't know him that well I would not have come.

Whatever. I need to go back home. Good bye.

They told me you would be here.

What's wrong? Did something happen?

I'm between life and dead. Nida came.

Nida! Yes Nida.

The crazy one, don't you remember her? She is here.

She just came to make me crazy.

And on top of it all, on the way over I dropped her off and she met Defne and stopped to talk to her.

Who knows what she told her about me.

May God take her away.

A cut or a shave? The two together.

Mister Ihsan. Welcome.
-Please sit down.

Mister Ihsan welcome. Why are you standing? Please sit down.

Look, the big boss has arrived.

What's going on? Everyone is here.

What's the coincidence that you are all together at the hairdresser.

It's a strange world. Who could ever think that we would become in laws in one of these days.

Anyway I'm leaving, I have an appointment and I don't want to disturb this nice moment for you.

You know this is a special place.
Because every day you find a new story to talk about.

Okay have nice haircut.
-Thank you Cemel aga.

Take well care of them. They are my family.

Of course Cemel aga. Good bye.

Ihsan don't be late tonight.

Son in law, I hope you won't forget the Condole!

Demir I need to find a solution for this Condole thing!

Have a good wealth.
-Same to you mister Ihsan.

The son in law and father in law are sitting to have a haircut at the same time. This never happened to me before.

Mister Arif.
-Yes, miss Suheyla.

Do you have any news?
-I went again to her house. But Yasemine is still not home.

Her family hired a car and took all of her stuff out of there.

I asked about her boss. He also left his work.

I'm sure someone scared her. Or else she would not leave her house in this way.

We will find out Arif.

I want you to find all the addresses of the family of Yasemine.
-Okay.

Kerim has gone crazy.

I will not let him marry a farm girl.

Girl, I told you he talked with the girl and they are going to ask for her hand.

That's impossible.

Nida you don't seem to understand

my brother loves this girl and he doesn't care about the rest.

You know me, I don't give up that easily Leyla. He needs to get shocked so he will wake up.

I didn't come here for nothing.

If you put some pins in, it would be very nice.

Yes, that would be great.

You're going to be very beautiful anyway.

Asi. A friend of Kerim from Istanbul has come.

I met her when I was walking.

She knows things about Kerim more than I do, do you know that?

What do you mean?

Everyone has had girlfriends.

Don't think about that kind of stuff.

I'm sure after he met you he broke all the contacts with his old girlfriends.

Did you forget? He is coming tonight to put an engagement ring on your finger.

The girls are pretty today.

Now it's our turn. It's my sisters engagement.

I can put some rouge on.
-Don't you dare do it.

Where is the mascara? Defne can I put some powder on of yours?

You didn't left anything for me.

Why do you love makeup so much?

Every girl loves it except you. I would love to see some makeup on you as well.

Asi, can someone die from happiness?

I feel like my heart is going to fly away.

They came, they came!

Brother Kerim is holding flowers and walking like a robot in front of them.

Don't laugh at him. He is going to be your brother in law.

You can't handle a joke, no one's arrived yet.

It's not the right time for your jokes.

Aunt please don't wear a dark color again please. Wear something light, it will suit you please.

Okay, I won't insist any longer.

Yesterday you were sitting a long time outside.

You're thinking a lot aunt.

Don't think I don't see it, I worry about you.

You're very upset or not aunt?

How do you know?
- I'm here and I live in one house with you.

I hear everything and see as well.

Don't stay upset please for my sake. Go and be happy.

The groom is ready.
- Leave me alone. Did you talked to Nida?

They went to the city.

Why do I have such a bad luck that she came now?

I have nothing to do with it. She is your ex girlfriend.

Come on Kerim, I didn't invite her nor did I tell her to come over.

They came by themselves.

From the day Nida came, you've been holding a grudge against me.

Is it even possible for you to think I have nothing to do with it?

I ordered it and they brought it.

Is this the Condole?

These are the customs. Chocolate and the Condole are the most important things.

Thank you aunt Suheyla. I would not have known what to do.

You look really beautiful.

I don't want to hold anything. Can you take care of them?

I will take care of them, don't you worry.

Demir, keep the rings with you.

Give it to me there because I'm afraid I will lose it because I'm so nervous.

Don't be nervous or scared. Get a deep breath.

Come on, lets go.

Father, why are you standing here alone?
- Why is it forbidden to stand here?

Father!

Suheyla will be here any minute and I want to see her enter that door.

I want to see her face when she enters that door after all these years.

She used to work here and now after all these years she will enter that door as a well respected women.

If you were me, wouldn't you be curious what will happen?

Do you think we decided too fast to give them Defne father?

No we didn't and I know a person when I see his eyes.

And that guy with the green eyes is a very good human being. He will be a great son in law.

Aunt.

You go ahead, I will be there in a while.

Okay.

My dear sister.

What's wrong? Are you alright?
- Thank you.

Go open the car and get the stuff that are in there.

Listen girl, let me tell you and you will learn from this.

People here keep up with history.

But they don't understand it.

They are like that what can we do. For example the associations.

They are here from the year 923 but

this area was not free you know this. This city got her freedom in 939.

For years it was in the hands of the Frenchmen.

When the army came to protect the people so it would not become worse

they say that all the people welcomed them with flowers and songs.

That day 40 men and they were all from this area.

They made space for the others and made sure the associations kept going on.

I'm coming with you.

Get your telephone girl, pick it up.

What was I saying?

That's the reason why our city has a well known association.

And because of that day this city became ours.

Ours ours.

We're going to become one family or not?

Kerim isn't really family but

we brought up together like real brothers and sisters.

Did you see the ring? Is it beautiful?

The ring is with my brother, I haven't seen it yet.

Did he put the ring on your finger?

Girls, can you go to your room?

I want to stay alone for a while.
-Okay.

Where is Defne? Where is that girl?

Maybe it's their custom, maybe she will be back in a while.

I have never heard of such a thing.

Mother, I'm going to the kitchen to see if they need anything.

Okay fine.

Ihsan do you remember the beginning of this house back then

your father got an Italian architect to build this place.

It could be but I don't remember.

His work is well known and the walls are very exceptional, just like wood.

Even if you would scream your lungs out no one will hear you.

Did you ever go upstairs miss Suheyla?

Go if you want.

You will see that nothing has changed in these years.

It was forbidden to go upstairs.

Asi what's wrong? Is something going on? Defne suddenly left.

I don't know. I came to see what's wrong.

Are you alright?
- I don't know.

I'm not sure about this marriage anymore.

What's the problem?

Today I ran into an old girlfriend of Kerim, it was just by coincidence.

She told me stuff

and got me confused.

What if Kerim isn't like I know him?

Kerim is exactly the way you know him. Inside out.

I know him since we were little kids. He wouldn't have brought my aunt here if he wasn't serious.

I'm not quite sure about his love for me.

If he told you he loves you, then he really does love you.

It's true that he used to live a different life style. But you changed him.

Defne, if he didn't love you, why would he be here?

Not only that but Kerim is really in love with you.

As if you're not also totally in love with him.

This is not a good moment to think about those stuff.

I want to bring them the coffee. I'm already late.

What a nice picture.

Very beautiful picture.

Who took it?

The one who took it is very talented.

Kenan took it.

I'm thinking about going on that stage and sing and dance with the band. Or else I will go crazy.

I want to sing and scream as hard as I can.

Nida don't. We're in a city that we don't know and we don't know the people here.

Whatever.

I don't think they will have problems with it.

Don't interfere, let her do whatever she wants.

Let her get crazy.

Where did you go? You missed all the lessons of Cemel aga. One was about history and the second about sociology.

Son in law if you want the truth I thought you were just a simple employee of Demir but when I asked around...

Kerim is a partner of the company Cemel aga.

And Leyla also.

You can say I have 4 children and they are all the same to me.

That's obvious.

We understood this because you're the one who came and ask the hand of our daughter while his mother and father are still alive.

And I'm sure that Kerim also sees you as a real mother or am I wrong?

This here, is a Condole. A Condole.

Here you go.
- Thank you aunt Fatma.

Grandpa.
-Thank you my pretty girl, thank you.

Everything was okay and the girl really liked me, we were going to get married.

You can't be sure before you really get married.

And then what happened?

Suddenly Demir and Kerim came into the picture.

They saved mister Ihsan from his problem and screwed up all my plans.

They worked together with the mafia and the police and became heroes.

The girls love that kind of stories.

Do you know a girl who doesn't? I don't.

Look at him, so Kerim started to work with the police!

Of course dear all that to get the girl.

So the girls from this area love the guys who are like that.

But don't blame yourself, you're a great guy.

You're really something special.

No dear, I mean...

Nida dear, please don't.

We came here for a reason mister Ihsan.

Kerim loves Defne.

Yes we know that.

The meaning of the children is the most important for me.

It's obvious that they agree, the both of them.

In that case I have nothing to say.

And I also don't have anything against it.

But let us do the engagement party and the formal things as soon as possible.

Girls, Kerim, what do you say about that?

I don't want to keep an eye on you in the bars like little children.

We're not in Istanbul.

My girl does know very well how to act.

We would like to have some time so we can prepare ourselves.

I called all our family and told them.

Why wait? Let us do this by the end of the month.

Yes for me it's okay.

Yes.

We have a deal, I want to have a great party so all the people can talk about it.

I will invite everyone.

Come on put on the rings, come on come on.

Thank you.
- Do you like it?

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Son in law, you're now one of the family. So now I have a new family member.

Good bye. Good bye.

Good evening mister Ihsan.
- Good bye.

Why is your hair like that? Can't you get it a little shorter son? But it suits you.

Good bye.
- Good bye grandfather.

Nida called several times and we need to go and see her, it's not nice if we don't.

Good bye.
- Good bye.

Ceylan you were mad at me but look I returned it.

Brother Aslan thank you, you saved my music career.

Actually

someone helped me to find it again.
- Thanks to him and you.

I was upset about everything that was sold but that and now it's back.

Why are you talking like that Neriman?

Don't you know that life without any music is like the fields without any water?

He is right because nice music does you good.

But certainly not this music.

Aunt we're going to see our friends. It's really necessary.

Good bye. But don't be late.

Miss Suheyla,

Cemel aga is the one who took Yasemine and he's holding her somewhere.

Who told you?

One of her family member called me, she told me everything.

Suheyla got rid of the morning and the grief she was looking as if this was her own engagement.

Was she pretty when she was a young girl?

How should I know?

Don't go.

If we were now in Istanbul

Defne and Asi could have come with us.

I wanted to explain this to you from the very beginning but you didn't want to understand.

Cheers.

And now I have to marry as soon as possible.

Yes, we will get Defne right away and get you married right here.

The groom has arrived so he can party with us. Congratulations mister Kerim.

Are you having a bachelor party?

It looks like you really having fun.

Why are you standing like that groom? Please sit down. Where is your bride? Didn't she come with you?

Please sit down, don't stand like that.

Best thing we can do is call Defne and congratulate her.

Don't be ridiculous.

I forgot she's family so I need to call her so she won't be upset.

Asi, Kenan is calling.

Kenan, how are you?

Defne dear, congratulations! Congratulations!
- Thank you, how did you know?

I know, I know.
- Give me the phone, I want to talk to her.

Miss, I want to congratulate you with the engagement. This voice sounds familiar.

Wait, wait, we saw each other this morning.
- Hang up the phone.
- It's you. I'm Nida.

Asi, Kerim is there.
- What's wrong with that?

They are his friends. What's wrong if he went and celebrated with them?

It's not nice to call people in the middle of the night. They may be asleep.

Come on, lets go.
- What's wrong you're being so strong suddenly?

Okay, let's stand up.

Good bye Nida.
- Bye Bye.

Why isn't he answering?

Hold Nida.

Come on Nida.
- Defne!

Where are you Kerim? And who is that girl?

If I see you, I will explain. Just go and sleep okay.

What's wrong Kerim?
- Defne dear, calm down I will come.
- Okay.

I don't know why you're acting like this.

You're going to get married. The best day of my life.

If I'm not happy who should be?

Get in, let me take you to your hotel.

Why isn't there a taxi that can take me home? Are you my personnel driver?

Please get in the car, you're driving me crazy.

Why are you doing this? Are you still asking?

I never was a proper bride.

People like me don't wear white clothes.

And they don't drive big cars and go to big mansions.

Sister.

My dear sister.

I need you, my dear sister.

Where are you?

I'm tired of this loneliness and this revenge.

I'm really tired sister, really tired.

Nida, wait!

I got the feeling like this is all my fault.

I would like to talk to Kerim, can you please take Melek and leave?

Not now Leyla, he is upset now, very upset. I will take him.

You and Melek can go.

Come on, lets go Melek.
- Kerim.

Defne, what are you going to do? Father will wake up.

I'm afraid, do you know that? I'm afraid that the girl from Istanbul will change his mind about me.

What's going on Kerim?
- There is really nothing going on Defne. Don't you worry.

Let's go talk in the car.

Who is that girl Demir? Where did she come from?

Today I encouraged Defne towards Kerim. What happened?

She is just an old friend. We need to let them talk.

They will sort it out.

When we were here tonight, I wanted to take you and Asi out with me.

I told you our friends from Istanbul came to see us but you're not allowed to come.

Not your father or your grandfather gave you permission to go.

Of course not.

Why should they trust you?

Defne, don't you trust me?

I'm ready to live the rest of my life with you, doesn't that mean anything to you?

I would love to believe you Kerim, but please be honest with me.

Who is that girl? What's your relationship with her?

Nida is my ex girlfriend.

But our relation ended.

She couldn't believe it so she came over to be sure.

Does she still love you?

Defne please believe me, I told you everything is over.

She heard about us so she came.

She couldn't believe that there is a girl who made me think about getting married.

She came to see it with her own eyes.

So that means she is still in love with you.

But I'm in love with you. And that's the only thing you must understand.

And let us close the Nida subject.

It's obvious that your friends from Istanbul

can't stay without you.

They don't leave you alone.

Yes, they like us a lot.

Maybe it's better, if you go back to where you came from

so that your friends won't trouble themselves by coming all the way over here.

If we're done with our job, maybe we will go back.

Thanks for your advice.

It would be the best thing to do.

We all have a past, including me.

The life we used to live in Istanbul is very different than here.

You can't compare it.

It's obvious.

The girls come all the way here to follow you guys.

Does that bother you?
- Why should it bother me?

Actually I

find it impossible to go after a guy

even if they told me he would marry me, I wouldn't go.

Very good! What honorable behavior.

But sometimes it's necessary miss Asi.

Especially when there is a misunderstanding.

You think you're the center of the world, don't you?

If you ask me, you're the one who thinks you're the center of the world.

Don't you think I didn't notice

Upstairs when you saw the photo

when I told you it was Kenan who took it, I saw your face. It was full of anger.

Really?!

When I came back from Syria and didn't pay any attention to you, you were the one who went mad.

I saw your face too.

You... You're being so arrogant.

Who do you think you are?!
