The story takes place in Istanbul, the capital of Turkey, a mysterious and ancient city. Perhaps there is no city in the world better suited to this story than Istanbul.
A man alper who was born alone, hardly ever had a deep connection with people, whether it was parents, friends or girlfriends. He is always on guard against others interpreting his heart and entering his life, saying that he was born alone. It seems that he lives very freely, free and easy, not burdened by feelings.
He is the owner of a restaurant. He only cooks when important guests appear, goes to get off work, drinks and makes appointments, and lives a peaceful life day after day. Like ourselves, many people in the city live a similar life, and we enjoy this isolation because it gives us a lot of space to do what we want without being held back by anyone.
No matter how much we enjoy our freedom, we will eventually find that there is an unfilled void in our hearts. And the only way to fill this void is to fill this void through a person and establish a deep connection with him. After all, all loneliness is an appearance.
For alper, breaking that appearance started with meeting a girl in a bookstore.
When love comes, habit and nature are a defenseless city wall, and it falls down when pushed. Driven by the heartbeat, alper begins to pursue ada wildly.
In order to create an image of himself as a good man, he even did not hesitate to fabricate a lie to say that he was a divorced father who often never saw his son, until Ada saw through the lie and poured a cup of coffee. Then he left in anger. When Ada began to realize that he also seemed to have a crush on this man with deep facial features, he called Alper to apologize, and the two started dating.
Although Ada knew from the beginning that he and Alper were destined to separate, he still couldn't stop himself from being attracted by Laper's charm and falling in love with him.
Alper also began to slowly get used to the time he was in love with Ada. He never slept with others. He didn't let Ada leave after finishing it like other women.
The two walked around the streets and alleys of Istanbul together and ate all the street snacks in Istanbul. Laper took Ada to his restaurant and introduced Ada generously to the staff in the store;
alper began to feel some differences in life. When I was with ada, I enjoyed the sweetness that I couldn't enjoy in lonely time. Some people shared joy, some shared worries, some people faced each other during the day, and some people hugged at night. Even sex became wonderful. I had an appointment before. With so many gun friends, no one can give alper such a wonderful feeling.
The two also went to the tavern where alper often went to drink and listen to the band, and even brought ada to meet his mother who came to Istanbul for the wedding. The optimistic and cheerful ada got along very well with alper's mother. Surprise, just like what Laper's mother said to Ada when she attended the wedding: "I hope the next happy bride is you."
On the day when Alper's mother was sent away, Ada and Alper's mother hugged, and her mother told her: "Promise I, don't leave him easily." Ada nodded happily, Alper who had just entered the door after returning home was still kissing Ada hard, but the next second while Ada was eating, he said, "Ada, I want to break up.
" Unexpectedly, the breakup that was taken lightly or even not retained will miss life.
In the scene of goodbye, alper looked at Ada's back and did not dare to recognize each other, trembling all over his body, making his already twitching heart even more nervous. When Ada, who is now married, showed her lovely daughter to Alper, Alper almost burst into tears, almost, just a little bit, the cute little girl in front of her was her and Ada's daughter.
The two greeted each other and told each other about their life in the past few years. They said to each other very well and very well, but the sighs in their hearts were dripping blood: without you, how could I be good.
ada: You never know, after I left you, I went to your hometown to see the streets and rooms where you lived as a child. Your mother showed me the albums of your childhood, I stroked your tender face, sat on the bed you slept on when you were a child, and smelled the pillow you used more than ten years ago, I was surprised that the smell of a person was not will change. Take away a record of yours called Childhood, and maybe many years later you find you're missing it and never know what happened. I asked your mother to keep it a secret for me and never tell you that I was here.
alper: I didn't tell you the truth, I was born alone, loneliness is in my nature, I thought breaking up was good for both of us, but I was wrong. Since you left, I haven't had a good day. Until one day I accidentally knocked over the mouthwash cup and found the little hairpin you left in my house. I realized that I can't live without you in my life. I have looked for you, but you moved away, and your clothing store has now become a real estate agency. I will still visit from time to time and look forward to the day when you may be able to come back.
If I could keep my innate loneliness away from my stubborn heart, give up my inner loneliness, and continue to live happily with ada, maybe now I will no longer be alone.
No one doesn't love their loneliness, but you won't understand until you really lose it, maybe loneliness is not more worthy of love than you.
