Besides, l've been checked with the package.

Where are the elevators? No one knows a shit in this block.

God damn it!

What's wrong? What do you want?

- ls the lady in? - No. Give it to me.

Come on in. The door is open.

Close the door.

Now, close your eyes.

Don't open 'till l tell you or l'll get mad.

Your eyes are shut, aren't they?

You have to wait a little longer. l told you to shut your eyes.

Now you can open them.

l'm here you idiot!

Look, look and desire this women.

Desire me silly. Don't stare at me like a cow, do something.

Maniac. Fuck off!

Catch me if you can.

You are crazy. Look at those eyes.

l'll kick the shit out of you, if you hurt me.

l am sweaty. l'll take a shower.

You should go now. The lady will be back soon.

Halet, it's enough. Keep away from the car.

Ok sir. He was just looking.

Come on, let's go.

What is it?

- Aziz, Mrs Tulay wants to see Halet right away. - OK.

Go to no.16.

Didn't you hear?

Come in Halet, your name was Halet, right?

Why did you break the pane?

You broke it, didn't you Halet?

The glass is no big deal. l am asking because l was curious.

Mrs. Tulay...

- Dinner is ready. - l'm coming.

Won't you answer?

l'll get it fixed tomorrow.

- You will get it fixed tomorrow? - Tulay it's enough.

l told you. lt's OK with the pane. l'm just curious.

- Did Asl want you to do it? - Tulay, enough l said.

Don't interrupt Selim. l've got a reason for asking.

Yes.

- Allright. Asl. - Yes, Mrs. Tulay?

Bring what you have prepared.

Mrs. Tulay has had them prepared for you and your father.

- Asl, it's late. Your mom will worry. - OK. Mr. Selim, lt's almost over.

Selim.

Halet, come on let's have some tea.

Do you want them?

You can have them cheap. l've got bigger ones.

My hut is there, behind the rocks.

ls it yours?

Yes, my husband is inside, taking a rest.

lt looks like there's no one inside.

l'll buy it someother time. Goodbye.

- l'd like to see Mrs. Fatos. - Could you please wait?

OK, sir. l'll inform them.

OK, sir. Have a nice day.

What were you doing there?

- Where the hell is it? - Don't exagerate, take it from here.

Brush, make up kit...

... notepad, pen, sunglasses.

And an adventure book.

Here you are, you god damned shit.

- Do you read those? - l'm just amusing myself.

No, notjust amusing. l do enjoy it awfully.

l feel uneasy but l don't know why.

l feel like l can find it out while l'm reading it.

How is it going with your husband?

l don't know.

Let's meet again, we can go somewhere.

- What's the day today? - Tuesday.

You know we've moved very close to you.

l can stop by often from now on.

lf l don't bother you.

No, but give a call before you come.

OK. As you wish.

Don't misunderstand, l just got my licence.

l'm eager to drive. l may not be home.

l see. Enjoy yourself.

l'm going crazy about driving. l can't stay at home anymore.

- lt is quarter past four, is it right? - Twenty past.

l am leaving.

No one else could stand me, accept you.

You stupid woman!

l'm sorry, l had dazed off, come on in.

Hello.

- Where were you? - l was in the bathroom l heard you but...

- Prepare something to eat. - OK.

Hello.

Hello?

Selim?

- You may leave, Asl. - OK, Mrs. Tulay.

Do you want to break up?

l am leaving Mrs. Tulay.

Turn it off Asl.

Turn it off.

l'll take a shower, call Fatos and tell her that l'll stop by her in an hour.

l called you this morning. Your maid told me that you were out.

Ten minutes later she called back and said that you'd be here in an hour.

Then you came all messed up, looking so pale, after nine hours.

Now will you tell me what's going on?

- Are you OK? - l 'm ruined, l'm ruined.

Tulay?

- Do you have light? - Yes, of course.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Did't you go to the police?

This is insane. What did you wait for?

l don't know. For a second, it felt like l'd see the city.

Take it off if you like, you will get hot and swelter.

Fatos, the fireworks have just started. lt looks beautiful.

Look at them, they're just like kids.

Now they're watching the fire works.

l'm ruined, l'm ruined.

Tulay, what is going on?

- Come on man, come on? - Stop it man.

- Stop it! - Fuck you!

What are you doing here? Go away!

What happened to your neck?

l was out, l caught cold.

Where did you go?

l just fooled around for a while.

You should have seen a doctor.

Stop... You will kill him!

Tulay, are you asleep?

- What are you watching? - A horror movie.

What is it about?

l didn't understand out for. l missed the begining of it.

But l guess it's about alien invaders who are in guise of humanbeings.

lt looks like a good a movie.

Now you go and bring me some rak and ice.

You drank too much, Mrs. Tulay will get angry.

Come on Asl, bring it.

When did Tulay come back home?

- l guess he is the leading man. - Yes.

- That one with the black sunglasses? - An alien disguised as a priest.

Max knows it but to catch them, he acts as if he hasn't recognised him.

How come he knows that they are aliens?

From the sunglasses.

A professor who died at the begining, has found it out and told it to Max.

Why did the professor die?

Because the aliens knew that he was on their way.

They broke into his lab one night and killed him.

That's bad. But thank God that Max is there.

Yes, Max is there.

l guess Tulay is asleep, she was very tired.

- Does she come late often? - Sometimes.

There is something strange about her nowadays.

Why do you leave some questions unanswered?

Which questions?

- How is your mother? - She's fine, she is just hanging on.

The movie is almost over.

Wasn't that man who got shot an alien?

Yes, Max killed him when he caught the others.

You may leave. Your mother will worry.

l have to wash the dishes.

You can wash them tomorrow.

By the way l'll be on a trip for a few days.

lf you need anything, just tell me.

OK?

- Send my greetings to her. - OK.

l'll kick the shit out of you if you hurt me.

Halet...

lt's ready Mrs. Tulay.

- Good morning Asl. - Good morning Mrs. Tulay.

Has Selim gone?

He left when you didn't wake up. He'll call.

- How are you feeling? - l'm fine. ls the bath ready?

lt's ready.

Mr. Selim was not well. He said he'd go on a trip.

Why don't you eat mother?

What is the matter, mother?

What is wrong with you?

You look very pale.

What are you doing with the money l send you?

- Answer me mother! - Stop! Don't get angry so quickly.

Don't misunderstand me.

But aren't you sending us one million a month?

lt's enough only for food. Your brother is sick.

What one million, mother!

lt was evident that it'd be like this, God damn it!

- Sorry? - Are you deaf?

l said God damn it.

Open your eyes mother. Didn't you ever wonder?

Every month, l'm sending five million liras to that man.

Besides in the middle of the month l sent you about ten million liras.

l never knew about it.

You never open your mouth and say anything.

l'm tired of all of you! You, that guy...

You are still after me.

Your chilrden sucks the blood out of you and you don't say a word.

Your husband steals your money and again you say nothing.

When l'm angry, you never say anything.

Come on, don't be upset. You know how crazy l am.

l really don't know what's wrong with me nowadays.

l feel like hurting everyone.

l don't want to stop by the neighborhood if you don't mind.

Madam...Madam... What's wrong with you?

What? Mind your own business!

Hello. l'm fine. Leave me alone.

l went out to get some fresh air.

Am l under investigation?

l don't know maybe l'll go to Fatos.

l'm bored do you understand!

OK, fine.

Why are you staring?

Do you know anything about all these stupid questions?

Answer me!

Nothing Mrs. Tulay. l am just worried.

She says l was looking back while l was walking as if l was being followed.

She says l've been acting strange lately.

She says she worries about me.

Who the hell are you, you little bitch?

Maybe she's right about being worried.

Don't get angry. l said maybe she is right.

Selim, the maid, even the doorman...

... why would they act like this?

l am really bored.

lt's late. Let's go.

ls there another man?

Don't you have to tell your husband what's happening?

Are you going to leave me with lots of questions in my mind?

Tell me what's going on!

l'm coming.

Thanks.

- Are you OK? - Do l look bad?

No.

You weren't well this morning.

- Why didn't you eat with me? - l was full after cooking.

How can someone get full after cooking?

Just so, l don't know.

- What are you watching? - A soap opera.

- What kind of a soap opera? - Just a soap opera.

Are you trying to tell me something?

What do you mean?

l don't know. You've never talked to me like that before.

l haven't been out for three days.

l just wanted to chat with you.

l'm sorry.

- l'll ask you something. - Yes sure.

What did you think when you found me like that, that morning?

- l mean l wasn't feeling too well. - Nothing.

Just that you had drunk and had some fun with Fatos.

Why did you ask?

Well, l thought you might get wrong ideas.

Why would l get wrong ideas.

How could you think like that?

That night towards the morning Mr. Selim called me up.

He said he called you and when you didn't answer...

... he got worried and called me.

What did you say?

l told him that you'd been with Mrs. Fatos.

And you had drunk too much so you'd gone to bed and everything was OK.

- l'm leaving, Mrs. Tulay - Why did you lie?

Something bad could happen.

You know that l and mom are earning our lives from this house.

Good night.

- How are you? - Thank you ma'am.

Do you need anything?

No, but l wanted to ask if you needed anything.

- No thanks a lot ma'am. - lf there is, just let me know.

Excuse me, do you have light?

Thank you.

Murderer! Murderer! He is a murderer!

This was the last time l saw him.

There's a psychiatrist l know if you want.

- Yes. Yes. - Egemen is that you?

- This is Tulay. ls Fatos home? - No, she went to Suzan's.

All right then. l will call her tomorrow.

- By the way, what's the time? - Half past twelve.

Right. Thanks, good night.

Mrs. Tulay.

- What are you doing here? - l was waiting for you.

Why? Your master's gone and it is your turn to keep an eye on me?

Mrs. Tulay.

You think l'm not aware of the things you're after?

Cynical threats, pretending that you're protecting me.

Who the hell are you to protect me?

ln your little brain you think you can save this marriage?

- Mrs. Tulay. - Shut up!

Now....

Now, pack up and get the fuck out of this house.

- Mrs. Tulay... - Fuck off!

l just wanted to kill him for a moment.

His looks were disgusting and cold as ice.

Then l realised that everything was left behind.

lt still was painful. We didn't say a word.

l left. lt was raining.

Then l turned back to look.

The blocks had grown up like monsters in the night.

The lights of some of the flats were on.

lt seemed odd. l tried to guess the numbers.

8,33,49,61 ...

l walked in the streets all night long.

l couldn't believe what has happened.

Finally l went to my mother after all those years.

l did this for exactly five days.

At nights, l fell asleep the moment l put my head on the pillow.

l had forgotten my life in the block, Selim, Asl...

l even remembered my car many days later.

l got in the car and l suspected for a second if l was the one who's driving.

Then l found myself on the road. l drove and drove and drove.

lt was like a melancholy poem.

l was begining to understand slowly.

The days passed and this was the only fact l knew.

As the poet says ''l was drifted away by merciful slow running water.''

l rented a flat in Uskudar and moved in.

By the way, keep that in mind, l am looking for a job.

l'll talk to Mr. Naci if you want. He's been asking about you.

lt was my first morning in my new house.

l woke up early.

All of a sudden l thought of him.

l missed him and l wanted to see him.

- l will do some shoping. - Don't be late.

- l won't. - My guests are coming tonight.

By the way, my mother is very thankful to you for giving me a job.

lt's OK. You go now.

- My greetings to your mother. - OK.

You go. l need to see someone downstairs.

- l'm looking for Halet. - His father is there.

The man's looking awful. He couldn't speak.

He cried. l thought he was dead.

l remembered the last time l saw him.

He had a scar on his face left from the struggle with the murderer.

He locked himself in the house for days after he left the hospital.

Later, they saw him a few times waiting for me.

ln the end Asl had told him that l'd gone.

That night he'd gotten lost.

And no one could hear from him for days.

At last his father had found his trace at a police station.

They had told him that he stayed there for 3 days.

And then sent him to an asylum.

They've messed up everything again.

l'm not going to let them gather here anymore.

Happy New Year...
