Our Grand Despair Page #3

What cat?

One day Cetin sneaked into

the janitor's apartment

and put a cat in his fridge.

The janitor's poor

wife was so frightened.

And the cat almost froze!

Why? What for?

I ate the rice pudding and

put the cat in its place.

Was it a white cat?

Mete is living in Izmir.

- Really?

His daughter just started high school.

- Really?

What about Sadun? - Sadun is in Istanbul.

We see each other often.

He also has a daughter.

- No way.

I'm going to bed.

If I don't see you tomorrow,

have a nice trip. - Thanks, dear.

Good night.

- Good night.

Your apartment is nice, guys.

A fine life you have here in Ankara.

That girl...

Everything she went through...

She seems better,

but you never know.

We can never be sure.

It's not easy.

Keep an eye on her.

Do you talk with Fikret?

Listen, I suggest...

Update him on her.

Don't take the sole responsibility.

I'm going to bed.

And...

Behave yourselves.

You're still as water

Like feelings

There's love in your eyes

Like deep deep sleep

Why that regard?

Tell me are you in love with me?

Get up.

Sit there.

Today you talk and I listen.

Nihal speaks today.

I remember something from school.

I was in 8th grade.

A bookstand

was set up in the schoolyard.

In morning class,

we visited it with our teacher.

Our assignment was to write a

paper on a book of our choice.

Then

one of the booksellers handed me a book.

A university student,

with long hair in a ponytail.

Not the type everybody would fall for.

But up close, his eyes

were very beautiful.

Leaning forward, he told me

about the book I was buying.

He had beautiful hands.

The way he held the books...

How his fingers flipped

through the pages...

I went to the bookstand

during every break.

Of course to see him.

So that he could show me a new book.

But at the last break...

The bookstand was gone.

Only bare ping pong tables remained.

And empty chairs.

Some bookmarks on the ground,

discarded papers...

I felt abandoned.

As if he had left me.

I went back to the classroom

and wept secretly.

Of course I forgot it afterwards.

All those feelings and thoughts.

But I think I grew up that day.

Suddenly I was forced to grow up.

That day.

A turtle!

Don't look!

August 27.

Don't forget to visit.

- Don't worry. Get some rest.

Take care of Fikret.

He needs some affection.

Bye bye.

- Bye.

Call us when you get there.

- I will.

Let me be your dog, Captain.

Let me be your dog, Captain.

Let me live by your leg.

Let me live by your leg.

Copilot, copilot!

Captain scolds, I stay silent.

Captain scolds, I stay silent.

Wherever he goes, I follow.

Wherever he goes, I follow.

Copilot, copilot!

The roads are dusty, we're on the run.
