The Forbidden Fruit

"How dare you hide something like this?! How could you not tell me?!"

"I didn't have to tell you, Emir."

"He is my child too, Elif."

"No.. I raised him all alone during this time, and we no longer need anyone."

"Aras is my son, and you can't keep him away from me."

"You're ignoring a small detail, Emir; you're married, and I'm returning to America very soon."

Elif couldn't bear it any longer; she rushed to pour out the bitterness she had kept locked inside her chest for the past three years. He had no right to stand before her and speak this way. Her life had changed because of a mistake he committed three years ago, leaving her all alone to face her destiny. And when she trampled on her pride and went to the man she loved, she received the words that shattered all her hopes... He was getting married. The man who had given her love and passion was marrying someone else.
