HIKMET
(grinning)
Come on, you two! It's your special night. Dance together!
Emir and Reyhan exchange a glance, their expressions a mix of hesitation and shared amusement. Despite their reservations, they find themselves drawn to each other's presence.
With a gentle smile, Emir extends his hand toward Reyhan, a silent invitation. Reyhan hesitates for a moment before placing her hand in his, her eyes meeting his with a mixture of uncertainty and determination.
As they step onto the dance floor, the crowd erupts into cheers and applause. The music shifts to a melodious tune, enveloping them in its embrace.
Emir and Reyhan's steps are tentative at first, as if finding their rhythm in this new partnership. But with each passing moment, their movements become more synchronized, their bodies swaying in harmony.
The world around them fades away, and it's as if they're in their own universe, connected by the gentle sway of the dance. Emir's hand rests securely on Reyhan's waist, while Reyhan's fingers lightly clasp his shoulder.
Their eyes meet, and for a moment, the complexities of their circumstances seem to melt away. There's a hint of a smile on both their lips, a shared understanding that they're embarking on a journey together, even if it started in an unconventional way.
The dance continues, their steps growing more confident, their connection deepening with each passing moment. The crowd watches in awe, witnessing the transformation of two souls brought together by fate.
As the music reaches its crescendo, Emir and Reyhan's dance slows down. They find themselves standing close, their foreheads almost touching, a silent exchange of emotions passing between them.
The applause from the guests fills the room, and Emir and Reyhan share a final, lingering gaze before parting. Emir offers a small, genuine smile, and Reyhan returns it, her eyes filled with a mixture of gratitude and the promise of a new beginning.
The dance may have started as an obligation, but in that moment, Emir and Reyhan have taken their first steps toward forging a connection that transcends the circumstances that brought them together.
CUT TO
INT. TARHUN HOUSE - GARDEN - NIGHT
The garden is bathed in the soft glow of the moonlight, casting long shadows across the landscape. Emir sits on a bench, his expression heavy with thoughts. Reyhan quietly approaches and, without a word, takes a seat beside him. The silence between them is serene, as if their unspoken understanding transcends words.
Emir's gaze is fixed on the distance, his eyes filled with a mixture of uncertainty and contemplation. Reyhan, too, remains silent, giving him the space to voice the thoughts weighing on his mind.
EMIR
(softly)
I don't know if I'm ready for this, Reyhan. This new chapter in my life. It's not just about me; it's about whether I can give you the place, the love, and the care that a wife truly deserves.
Emir's voice trembles slightly, revealing the depth of his inner turmoil. He turns to look at Reyhan, his eyes searching for understanding and acceptance.
EMIR
(cont'd)
My heart still aches for Nihan. Her memory is a part of me, etched into my soul. I can't deny that. I don't know how to let go of the past.
Reyhan listens attentively, her gaze gentle and empathetic. She reaches out and places a comforting hand on Emir's, a silent gesture of support and assurance.
REYHAN
(softly)
Emir, I understand. I know that Nihan holds a special place in your heart, and I would never ask you to forget her. We all have our pasts, our scars, our memories. They shape us, but they don't define our future.
Emir turns to Reyhan, his eyes reflecting a mix of gratitude and vulnerability.
Reyhan offers a warm smile, a beacon of reassurance in the night's tranquility. They sit together in the garden, sharing the weight of their pasts and the uncertainty of their future, finding solace in each other's silent company.
