When We Leave
WHEN WE LEAVE:
Are you ready?
Mommy!
Does it hurt?
I'm fine.
Mommy where were you?
Thank you.
Enjoy your meal.
So, how is Melek?
Much better.
Now eat properly, son.
Melek will get better, God willing.
I'm sure she was happy to see you.
We didn't go to Aunt Melek's.
Be quiet and eat.
We waited really long for Mommy.
I told you to eat!
Open your mouth.
Are you deaf?
Stop it, Kemal!
Eat your food!
Come back here!
Come back here!
Don't, Kemal!
What are you doing?
Leave him alone!
Get out of my way!
Don't hurt him!
Get in there!
Zeynep, come on! We're late.
Umay!
My child...
Mom!
Why didn't you tell us you were coming?
Cem!
Look how tall you've grown!
- Hello!
Hello, my darling!
You're so big.
Come in! Come!
Where's Kemal?
So what do we do now?
I missed you so much.
It's so nice to have you here.
Father!
Welcome.
Let me take that.
Let me kiss your hand, Father.
Umay! What a surprise!
Cem, come here.
Hurry up!
Where's Kemal?
In Istanbul.
Have a seat.
Come.
If you'd let us know,
You're so much bigger
than you were in the pictures.
Show me your hands.
My Lord! Look at that...
They're so big.
When's Kemal coming?
In a few days, for sure.
He's got a lot of work.
Are you ticklish?
Catch me, Grandpa!
- You bet I'll catch you.
Stop that!
Your father has high blood pressure.
He shouldn't get too excited.
How's the cafe doing?
Good. Kemal fixed it up.
Why don't you open another one?
You could even open one here.
That would be nice.
He's not coming.
He's not coming?
What's that supposed to mean?
Umay!
What are you doing here?
Sit down.
Sit down!
What took you so long?
I was doing stuff.
When did you get here?
She's not staying long.
Mind your own business.
Did you say something?
You heard me.
What did you say?
Are you deaf or something?
- What did you say?
Are you deaf?
Sit down!
Finish your meal!
He didn't meant it like that.
It's exactly what he meant.
Mehmet says you'll make Cem a bastard
if you take him away from Kemal.
You've grown up.
He looks like you.
I was a lot fatter.
She was homesick...
I know... I know...
But you know how young women can be.
It's only for a few days.
She's very sad.
She doesn't want to upset you.
Please, tell Kemal.
Alright.
God bless you.
Where's Cem?
Don't get upset, my child.
Your father took him
to Friday prayers.
Why didn't you wake me?
Eat something, my child.
You're so skinny.
Remember, how you fought
your brother for this seat?
Now you're back in your favorite chair.
If only you talked to Kemal...
We just don't get along.
It will never work.
Things aren't always exactly
how we'd like them to be, my child.
No matter what, you cannot
separate your son from his father.
I'm miserable, Mom.
Is that what you want?
I can't do it anymore.
I'm exhausted.
You told me you'd be here for me,
no matter what.
Let's make a ball.
Going out?
Yes, Mother.
I'll be back at five.
I've got to go.
I'll be back in three hours.
You can't do that.
- Wait for me.
Hey, wait!
No!
Holy Sh*t! I don't believe it!
Do you wish you'd have kept the baby?
He'll never change.
I missed you.
I missed you, too.
A lot.
Is this how a man behaves?
I'm sorry. We were in the park.
I lost track of time.
Act like a man! Understood?
- Yes.
A real man acts like one!
Yes.
So?
What?
You're in love!
He's got such beautiful hands.
Beautiful hands?
Look.
We're getting married.
You're too young, Rana.
Look at me.
Please...
Leave me alone.
I know what I'm doing.
I love him, Umay.
Will you be with me at my wedding?
Of course.
It's been a week.
What are you going to do?
Have you made a decision?
I'm staying here.
Find work, go to school.
It's not just about you, you know.
You have a son.
And what about us?
You want too much.
Better than too little.
You're a twenty-five year old mother.
You're too old!
Stop dreaming!
I gave up a lot for you kids too.
Do you want me to end up like you?
Forgive me.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
If you worked here,
It's taken care of.
Really?
Yes, my family will help me.
Ok. You've got the job.
Thank you.
Do you watch this at home, too?
I am home, Father.
Umay, my child, we love you.
You're our oldest daughter.
But you belong to Kemal.
You are a married woman.
He beats me.
He's your husband.
The hand that strikes
is also the hand that soothes.
A slap or two is no reason to run.
I'm not going back.
I'm going to live here.
How do you intend to do that?
You are not alone.
Did we raise you to bring shame upon us?
You will return to Kemal.
You always praised Uncle Bekir
for choosing his own path in life.
I still do.
But you don't compare to him.
Why not?
Father, why not?
Because that's the way it is!
What are you doing?
Have you gone mad?
Get a hold of yourself!
I'm not going anywhere!
- Then do as you please!
What are you going to do?
What will you tell Kemal?
He should come and get her.
She is his wife.
I wish she'd been born a boy!
Was that good?
Kemal, I didn't say you were wrong.
Calm down. What?
I understand. May God be with you.
Whore!
Kemal's not coming.
He doesn't want you back.
Do you realize what you've done to us?
How are we supposed to look
people in the eye?
We have to take Cem back.
He wants his son.
Cem is staying here.
You heard me.
Look at me when I'm talking to you.
Answer my father!
Stay out of this.
Look at him!
- Silence!
Are you alright?
Get up.
Leave me alone!
He's his son! He has a right to him.
You leave him no choice.
It's best for Cem.
Cem isn't going anywhere.
He belongs with me.
Umay, you're losing it.
Get a hold of yourself!
Get out of my way!
Put down the knife!
Let me pass!
Over my dead body!
You stupid girl!
May God protect you from the evil eye.
How did Kemal meet him?
They became friends back in the army.
Kemal trusts him.
I don't trust anyone anymore.
Don't worry, father.
It'll work out fine.
I'll leave with Cem tomorrow morning.
It'll be alright.
What's going on?
Good evening.
Is Umay Aslan here?
What do you want from her?
- May we come in?
We received an emergency call.
- Not from us.
Please stay.
Are you Umay Aslan?
- Yes.
Do you even have a warrant?
We don't need one.
Calm down.
What is going on?
What do you want from us?
What is this all about?
May God curse your soul!
You shouldn't have done this, Umay!
Beat it! You too!
I'll be next door.
Knock if you need me.
Thank you.
Good night, Cem.
Good night.
Good night.
Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Father?
Leave me alone. Go away.
Sign here please.
And here.
Okay. I'll take care of the rest.
- Thank you.
That's what we're here for.
Any more questions?
Avoid all contact
with your family, for now.
And no meetings within
the secure area, ok?
