(Faint shouts and inaudible voices)
"Halil Ibrahim, please don't you dare leave me..."
"Halil Ibrahim..."
"Mr. Halil Ibrahim can you hear me...?" Doctor called...
Halil Ibrahim laying on the bed, machines connected on him. He opens his eyes slowly and sees the doctor pointing a flashlight in his eyes. The light is blinding him so he turns his head away.
"Mr. Halil Ibrahim Karasu, can you hear me?" Doctor asks but his voice is still inaudible for Halil Ibrahim. He looks at him again and images are slowly becoming clear to him. He can now clearly see the doctor's face and also hear him. He hears him asking then nods slightly. He sees Oguz next to him, Oguz puts his hand on Halil Ibrahim's hand to show support. Halil nodes then turns his eyes far ahead where Zeynep is standing.
She looks lonely and all alone as EdaNur and Sema are standing at the opposite side. Zeynep's eyes look swollen, she surely must have cried a lot. She also has her head tucked between her shoulders it's as if she feels guilty about something. Halil Ibrahim can only see her despite the crowded room. Turan and Osman keep calling out his name but he doesn't respond, in fact he won't even turn his head towards them. Of course it's because he can't move much.
"Mr. Halil Ibrahim, can you tell me how many fingers am holding?" Doctor asks...
"Umm... 3 fingers..." Halil answers in great pain.
"Ok, very good. Now can you lift your hand for me?" Doctor continues...
Halil Ibrahim tries hard and finally is able to raise his hand, then the doctor asks him if he can feel his legs and he gives a positive reply. Seeing that the doctor assures that the surgery was a success and if nothing goes wrong Halil Ibrahim might be discharged in a week. Everyone lets out a sigh of relief, Osman and Turan hug each other, EdaNur and Sema as well. Zeynep after hearing the doctor's words she quickly runs outside. Halil Ibrahim stares at her until she shuts the door.
Zeynep heads to the toilet, she cries out loud, liters of tears pouring down from her eyes. She bitterly sobs and sniffs then turn to the mirror...
"You did this Zeynep... so what right do you have to run to his arms. You aren't even his wife anymore, you are just a stranger to him. A stranger who is also the reason why he got shot. How could you even do this to him? How could you be the reason the man you love was fighting for his life in a hospital bed? And with no shame, you stand in front of him like nothing happened..." Zeynep angrily lashes out...
Suddenly EdaNur shows up and Zeynep quickly wipes off her tears. She slowly approaches Zeynep and says, "Halil Ibrahim wants to see you..." Zeynep gasps...
"He asked all of us to leave the room and to call Zeynep..." EdaNur explains...
Zeynep opens a tap collects some water in her palms and washes her face. She's been crying for so long her face is all swollen and her eyes extremely red. She looks at her reflection through the mirror, she can see what a mess she's become. After all Halil Ibrahim is the love of her life, for the first time she witnessed her other half bleeding in her arms. Was she scared? Hell yeah... Plus it was almost her fault, because she doesn't like violence or didn't want her brother to have their brother's blood in his hand. So she ordered for him to be left alive. At what cost though, so she can have her husband's blood in hers? What a shame... What a shame where their relationship has reached. And now he's calling for her, will he repremand her? Put her in her place? What would he be calling her for? For sure it's not to forgive her because he's been holding onto a twenty years revenge, forgiveness is totally out of the question. Therefore for what?
