Our Grand Despair Page #4

Synopsis: The peaceful cohabitation of bachelors Ender and Cetin is disrupted when they allow a friend's sister to move in with them. The 30-something longtime friends are overwhelmed by the presence of the uncommunicative Nihal. What possessed them to accept the responsibility of a university student in their home? Especially a girl struggling with the trauma of recently losing her parents in a car accident. But simple daily rituals like sharing meals eventually bring the three roommates together for more pleasant moments. Nihal soon comes out of her depressed shell and the two men discover a vibrant beautiful young woman. Always caring and protective gentlemen, Ender and Cetin are intent on being conscientious guardians. Nihal enjoys discussing literature and poetry with scholarly Ender, and she finds comfort in boisterous Cetin's earthy humor. Nihal is touched by the men's loyal friendship: in a sort of bromance since high school, Ender and Cetin now seem like an old married couple... Before

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

Non-stop to the sea.

Non-stop to the sea...

Hold the wheel!

You look pale. Anything wrong?

Really?

Must be the trip.

- You're pale as a ghost.

You too.

Let's get some rest.

Thanks.

What do you think Nihal is doing?

What do you think about Nihal?

I'm in love with her.

Me, too.

Me, too!

Inevitable.

Hey, boss!

Got some raki?

Then the way

she walked at the picnic.

Swaying past us...

Really, what was that?

A feast for the eyes.

The way she said "A turtle!"

Her voice still rings in my ears.

Notice her feet?

They're pretty,

not pinkish when wet.

Her feet, her hands...

How about her profile when she speaks?

Her nose quivers like a little squirrel.

And her chin when she laughs.

I could eat it!

Why the towel? What about breakfast?

Breakfast first!

- Let's go.

My friend...

We always imagined falling in love

with the same girl in high school.

You can't say I didn't try hard

to fall for that Burin of yours!

In honor of the

fulfillment of our fantasy...

Onward to the sea!

Cetin...

Do you miss her?

Thinking of her?

Would you go away with her alone?

Man, this is weird.

Poor Fikret trusts us

to take care of her.

Right?

We should act our age.

You know, this is no good.

What will we do when Nihal returns?

This stays between us.

We won't tell Nihal anything.

Right.

We won't tell her.

The secret of a great chef

is to not add water.

Right, professor?

Boy, you must wait until the beans moan.

"Enough you bastards!", they say

while giving their last juices.

What if we told her?

I think that would

just confuse her even more.

She's young.

She's already shaken up

by everything she went through.

She can't know how she feels.

She might think she loves us.

Or she might get more confused.

Almost done.

You two ate them all?

Sure, what did you think?

Ender, you know I missed you a lot.

I missed you all the time.

We missed you too.

We did too.

I mean, we got used to you.

We kind of became family.

She told me the same.

What did you say?

"Us, too.

You're like a sister",

that kind of thing.

Good for us, Cetin. Good for us...

So there was this competition,

a dance contest.

The company director

got on stage and explained...

Couples had to dance with an

apple between their foreheads.

One of the couples got it all wrong.

They both bit into the apple and

danced like that, drooling all over.

How could they with the apple?

Come.

Your forehead.

Hold on.

Like that.

Bathroom?

Go ahead. I'll use the other one.

Do you need to work this afternoon?

No.

Shall we meet? I finish at 3.

I think a person can

only understand oneself.
