My father's sin

unexpected visit in jail

Istanbul prison :

Selim was reading the paper and sighed . He was so bored . Had it really been only 12 Years he had been here ? It felt so much more . Selim had changed since he was in this living hell . He who was used to luxury ... He had took so Many beating from the others prisoners , all because of his crime .
yes , hé had raped Fatmagul , but he hadn't been in his right mind back then . He had drink way too much all thanks to his dear cousin. Was he ashamed of what he did ? Of course he was ! But who wanted to end up in jail ? Especially for a rape .
Speaking of his cousin ... Erdogan came to sit by his side .
Erdogan : What are you doing ? Trying to keep in touch with Meltem ?

Selim : oh God , here we go ! I'm trying to keep contact with the Real World so I won't loose it . You should do the same if you dont want for the cops to lock you in isolation again , man .

Erdogan flinched . He could rember the incident all too well .

Erdogan : Tsk . Just Say Meltem's name and you get all fired up . You're so pathetic , bro .

Selim ( losing patience ) : Just because I hate to Hear this bitch name doesn't mean I Care anymore . Look mister " I will loose 20 Years in jail without doing anything", if you're bored go to the others prisoners . Stay away from me if you're here just to be a pain in the ass !

Erdogan : Speaking of pain in the ass . When I think that asshole of Mert get you out of this mess while hé will let me rot here ...

Selim : He tried . he tried to get you out . But dont forget that all the mess we have been throught from day 1 is YOUR fault . I have my share in it . And so does Vural and Kerim . But it all kicked because YOU spat your dummy's out .

Erdogan : well , at least you stopped playing victim .

Selim tensed . He was sick of his cousin . Just when he opened his Mouth , a guard called him :
Selim Yasaran ! You're got visit .

Surprised , the young man followed the guard .
In the meeting Room , a young woman was sitting . She was quite pretty with her smooth black and Brown hair . She was quite small and had a pretty face . As he sat in front of her , Selim thought he never saw her , thought she was vaguely familiar somehow .

Selim : I don't know you . Who are you ?
The woman ( smiling a little ) : I wondered if you would reconize me . If I tell you , Vural's girlfriend , 13 Years ago , his birthday ?

Selim ( look as if he had been slapped in the face ) : Zeynep . Zeynep Fettahoglu .
Zeynep : Selim . ( Smile sadly ) Thouse 12 Years took their toll on you .

Selim : What are you doing here , Zeynep ?
Zeynep ( lowing her head ) I hesited long , you Know . If I should Come or not . But then , I needed to clear my mind before admitting something ... And I didn't Know who to talk to but you .

Selim : What do you want to Know ?
Zeynep : About the ... Rape accident ... Vural wasn't innocent , right ?

Selim : ... No .

Zeynep : So , it's true then ... God ... I never thought he would ...

Selim : Listen ... What happened that night ... We weren't on our right mind . We had drink to Much and didn't realized what WE dis until it was too late . But of thé three of us ... Vural was the one who was the most sorry . He became totally dépressed After that mess . He ruined himself with drinks , ... Constantly had nightmares ...
He wasn't a Monster .

Zeynep : i Saw him again ... A little before his death . In a restaurant . He was so différent ... He Said that he had problèmes with his parents ... But ...

Selim : you came to me just to Ask that ?

Zeynep : No ... You see Selim ... A little After Vural and I broke up ... I ... I discovered I was pregnant .

Selim : You were ?! Of Vural ?!

Zeynep : Yes ... But then , the scandal broke up and ... My parents took my baby to an orphanage in Estanbul . It was a baby boy . I named him , Hakan . It wasn't possible for me to keep him with the rape scandal on Vural .

Selim : Vural's son ... Hakan , uh ? I'm happy to that thé Namli family isn't completly erradicated. Do you now what orphanage ? It would be nice for me to meet him .

Zeynep : Yes , the national one .

Selim : What will you do then ? You don't plan in taking him back ?

Zeynep ( shake her head ) : No ... He would remember me of Vural too Much . And if thé public ever Know that he's Vural's son , it would be a disaster for my family compagny .

She got up and Selim imitated her .

Zeynep : Selim , Can I Ask you a favor ? If you ever meet Hakan ... Could you please Say the less about his father and the past ? It's not something to be Proud of .
I have to go . it was good to see you again , Selim .

Selim ( shake her Hand ): Good bye , Zeynep .

Selim walked back to his cell in silence , deep in thought . He couldn't help but feel a disgusted that Zeynep abandoned her and Vural's son just for the sake of her fortune .
Thé guard opened the cell and Selim entered .

Erdogan : So ? Who wanted what ?
