Ömer takes Zehra's hand to steady her and assure her that all is well. Ömer remembers talking with Salim on the phone and then apparently he goes to Ayşe and explains the situation to Ayşe. She now realizes that Zehra is not in fact an orphan but has a family that she has hid from her and others as a result of the way their relationship started.
Ayşe goes to Salim and kisses his hand and is happy to meet them as she already knew they were coming. Bahşende is lost. Zehra excuses herself and goes to her bathroom in shock. Ömer goes to her, calms her down and brings her back. They have a nice dinner that Bahşende cannot stand and leaves early. After many nice exchanges the family leaves and Ömer gets Can to take them.
Ayşe thanks Zehra for all she has done for her and acknowledges the suffering she has gone through in order to hide her family. Zehra says what is important now is that we have reached such a day like this when everything is fine.
Ömer explains to Zehra that he did not tell her because she was not up to it and he did not want to upset her more. She agrees and thanks him. He then says I am going to the study to write your letter and again asks her to write one to him. Ömer writes the most moving letter explaining how he was hurt by the departure of his mother and how the poisonous words he heard from his mother to his dad were so like what he heard from Zehra on the night of their own wedding. He says he has gotten over that hurt and wants another chance from her to show that he can be her partner.
He goes to the room. Zehra has fallen asleep and in her sleep tells him that she has not written the letter. He asks what she would have written, that she wants a divorce. She says no I do not want it. He is happy.
Kerem reveals his love to sleeping Sabah and later we realize she has heard it. In the morning Zehra is very happy. She speaks on the phone with Canan and hears how her family was also happy with the visit. She goes to make breakfast with Asya. The divorce papers are delivered. She goes to put it in the room. Susan comes and says Bahşende wants to see you.
Zehra goes there and Bahşende says you have no respect for yourself. These two families have nothing in common. You are in it for the money. Zehra snaps again and goes gets the papers from her room. Ömer feels everything is being resolved. Zehra suddenly comes in and when Ömer wants to take out the letter, she stops him and says sign the divorce papers.
Ömer's Letter:
When my mother left us, she left behind two wounded children. I was frozen in the moment our mother left us. I kept looking at the world, at people and even you from that wounded stance. I have learned that when you are wounded inside, you take it out on others. Just as I had lost my mother, I was scared of losing you. The absurd unacceptable things I did were only because of this. I could not get over it. I have passed through the fire I thought I could never get through. Thanks to you, thanks to our love, I am no longer the wounded child my mother left behind. I have healed. I promise you I will never repeat the mistakes I made. I know it is not easy for you but I beg of you to please forgive me. Let me heal the wounds I have opened. Let me fix everything with my love. I beg of you not to close the doors because I truly love you, Zehra.
