Ömer asks if Yener is dead. They say he is in the hospital. Ömer remembers Yener's voice telling Ömer: "Zehra is mine!" He says you will never see her face again! He wonders whether he should tell Zehra.

In the bedroom Zehra reads the letter. It is from Yener confessing that he had lied about Ömer's involvement in her mother's disappearance. Zehra remembers how she had berated and hurt Ömer and she feels awful.

In the living room Cevriye tries to connect Tyfun and Leyla. Tyfun says he will see Ömer and goes into the study. Leyla also goes to Zehra. Ömer tells him about Yener and Tyfun says they usually leave a note when they do such a thing and he feels Yener is not the type to commit suicide. Ayşe comes and gets them to go to dinner. Ömer says he will get Zehra and Leyla. He ponders in the study a bit.

In the bedroom Zehra tells Leyla about the letter and Leyla says you have to apologize to Ömer. Zehra is not happy about the prospects. Leyla says it is good that you are sure now and it will be fine for the two of you. Ömer arrives at the door and hears Zehra saying "Yener did something good for me. And I have to talk to him and apologize to him." They open the door to go and Ömer is there. He wonders if she knows about Yener and what the conversation is about. He is upset.

They inform Mehtap about her brother's attempted suicide and she goes to the hospital up at arms. Demir is upset that he let Leyla be there with Tyfun without he himself going there. But it is too late. Yasemin calls her dad but he does not answer. She goes there worried that he might have fainted again. He snaps at her saying why did you come. She says you did not answer so I worried. They go home together.

Cevriye tells Ayşe to let Ömer sit beside his wife. They serve coffee. Ömer is upset saying in his head when did you talk to him? Zehra looks at him and takes the Turkish delight from beside his cup. He looks at her questioningly and she says you don't like it, anyways! He is amused but it does not last long.

Tyfun takes Leyla back. Leyla is scared at home and she realizes it is her aunt who has come. Ömer comes into the bedroom. Zehra is fixing the bed. She goes into the bathroom and notices he is not happy. Ömer thinks maybe it is all a game so they can see each other. He is mad and takes it on the pillows. Zehra comes and sees he is angry and feels intimidated and decides not to talk about the letter for now.

In the morning Ömer turns in the bed and his head falls on her pillow and wakes up with her smell. He wonders where she is. He gets a call from the police saying Yener is recovering. He asks about a note. They say there was none. Zehra comes in with breakfast in bed for him. He says what did I do to deserve this? She thinks of saying she wants to apologize but instead says Cevriye insisted so she did it. Ayşe comes and sees it and asks what Ömer has done. Zehra says she wanted to thank her for everything. Ayşe tells Ömer to give her the first bite. He takes her hand and sits her on the bed and feeds her toast and jam and wipes her mouth gently. Ayşe leaves. Zehra gets up and Ömer says he has to leave and does it without taking a bite. Zehra's phone rings. Yasemin is crying because his father would not speak to her. She hangs up and tells Ömer she is going to Mahalleh and he does not need to take her. Ömer says nothing.

Mehtap is upset about his brother and decides to take revenge by telling Salim about Zehra. Zehra consoles Yasemin and also asks about Koray and realizes he has no place to stay. She takes the tablecloth out to shake out the crumbs. Ömer sees her from his car and tells himself so she is actually here with her family as if he expected something else. He drives off.

Koray goes to Salim and apologizes and asks him not to be mad at Yasemin and that they never did anything to shame him. Salim takes his money out of the drawer and says take the rest of your money and go. Koray does not take it and just asks for his blessing and leaves. Salim gives him his blessing. Later Zehra comes and Salim tells her that Koray had come and says he never expected Yasemin to lie to him. Mehtap comes and sees Zehra in the workshop and decides to make a better plan. Meanwhile Demir realizes Leyla has not come to work and calls her. She says she has something important to do. He calls Tyfun's workplace and asks if he is available and they say he is busy. Demir is relieved that they are not together. Tyfun runs into Şükran and she gives him a real estate number and also tells him she will call him if she sees something good.

Zehra leaves and sees Koray in the park and talks to him. Koray suddenly realizes what he has to do and goes to Salim and asks for Yasmine's hand. Mehtap calls Zehra and asks her to go to the shop. She goes there and Mehtap tells her that Yener has attempted suicide and his last wish is to talk to Zehra apparently about her mother. Zehra asks the name of the hospital and leaves.

Ömer is in the office and decides to call Zehra and talk to her about the Yener issue. Alev walks in and he has to hang up. He suddenly receives an email. He opens it on the laptop: a photo of Zehra at Yener's bedside in the hospital. Rage pours out of his eyes and Alev wants to take a peak.

Ömer goes in and sees her all pale and asks if anything is wrong. She is about to say something but Alev comes in and says are we going Ömer. Zehra says you are leaving. Ömer says I can stay. Zehra says no go. She wonders if it is true and he has really escaped. Ömer tells Alev to wait outside and asks her again if everything is ok. She says it is fine. He says he will go and be back early and asks what she is doing. She says I will be home. He goes. Zehra calls the hospital and tries to get info but they will not give her any news of Yener. She feels she has to assure herself about it and decides to go to the hospital.

Koray sits Yasemin down and tells her that he cannot do that to Salim and take her daughter away without her permission. Yasemin is angry and on the way back runs into Şükran. She tells her that her father wants to send her to the village. Şükran takes her home and tells her to put away her bag before her father sees it. She sits and talks with Salim telling him that he needs to keep his daughter close to him. Salim is still determined to send her.

Mehtap hears that her brother has run away and is mad. Tyfun comes to see her and tells her she better tell them if anything comes up otherwise it would get worse for her brother.

At work Alev talks about the dinner again and Ömer says he will go with Zehra. Alev is miffed and goes to get coffee. Ömer gets a call from the Tyfun that Yener has escaped. He calls Zehra but she does not answer. He remembers the fear in her face in the morning with her phone and realizes she has probably heard. He leaves quickly making Alev mad.

Zehra is walking to the hospital and Ömer drives right in front of her. She asks what are you doing here? What are YOU doing her, he asks. She says Yener has run away and that she needed to find out if it was true. He gets mad that she did not tell him and came alone. She says she did not find the right opportunity to tell him and accepts she made a mistake. He hushes. She says there is more. She gives him the letter. He reads it and crumples it and again says why did you not show this to me from the beginning. Again she says I did not get a chance. He says we live in the same house and in the same…She again accepts she was wrong but also that he has to realize when he is busy he becomes unapproachable. He says there can be no excuse. She accepts that she was wrong; adding that from the beginning she was wrong for believing Yener when he said Ömer was involved in her mom's departure.

Koray goes to Salim; asks for his forgiveness and tells him that his father never acted like a parent to him and thanks Salim for teaching him what true parenthood is and asks that he does not take that away from Yasemin over him. He then tells Salim that he will go away so he does not have to send Yasemin away.

Zehra and Ömer come home. No one's there. They want to go to the bedroom to talk when Nihat comes and greets them. Alev arrives from the back and asks Ömer how come you are home early; didn't you say you had something to do? Nihat says you changed places with Ömer; he should be asking you this question. Alev says I am asking my work partner not my boss! Nihat says don't worry he is with his wife. Meanwhile Zehra and Ömer are looking from one side to the other. Ömer says let's go to the bedroom and they leave. Alev is miffed.

Leyla runs into someone trying to break in to their home at night. Şükran calls Tyfun.

At night Ömer and Zehra enter the bedroom. Ömer says everyone turned in early. Zehra says good; I was tired. He says it probably gets hard for you always pretending. She says no; it's not that. A smile from Ayşe suffices for me. And anyway, I don't have to act with her. Ömer is moved. Zehra says what are we to do with Yener out. Ömer says he might not have run away if you had not gone to the hospital. She says you saw the letter, I thought he might know where my mother is. He says how can you trust someone like him. She says it was not trust; it was just a flicker of hope. They change and get in bed. Zehra apologizes to him for blaming him for her mother's actions. She says I still can't believe how a mother can leave her children. But I feel I wanna know. He says sometimes the things you don't know make you happier. She says you understand me because you mother left too. He says yes. She asks why she left. Words dry up in his throat and he gets out of bed. Zehra reproaches herself for opening his wound.

In the morning Zehra comes in with breakfast. Ömer comes out of the bathroom and sets the table and they sit to eat gözleme. It is hot so Zehra wraps it in a napkin and blows on it before giving it to him. He looks at her, eats and thanks her. Yasemin calls and tells Zehra that Salim wants to send her to the village. She tells Ömer she has to go to Mahaleh. Ömer says it is too dangerous with him out. He then accepts to drive her there.

Ömer drives her there and waits for her to go in. He calls Tyfun but no news of Yener. Zehra talks with her dad but he cannot be dissuaded. She talks with Yasemin and Yasemin tells her that Koray asked for her hand. Zehra tells her that even if she goes to the village it would be for a couple of days and then their father would bring her back. She goes out and Ömer is still there. She goes to the car and tells him that Koray has asked for Yasemin's hand. Ömer is amused and says he is bold.

Hilmi Yilmaz lets Alev know that Yener has escaped. She decides to use that information. Koray goes to tell Yasemin that he is leaving and Salim hears him telling Yasemin to listen to her dad and feels proud. Fikrat comes with his goon to get Koray. Salim stands between them and tells Yasemin and Koray to go in. Koray runs to Salim.

Ömer and Zehra arrive home and Alev comes acting distressed that she was followed by somebody and was scared. The doorbell rings. Flowers for Zehra. Alev says read the note. It is a love note from Yener. She does not know what to say.
