Some thoughts on E.64 of #Hercai
If coincidence hadn’t brought u in front of me, I’d have lived in the same way, but oblivious to everything
U taught me that there’s another kind of life in the world,that I also have a soul

PRAISE
Every week I think that #EbruŞahin and #AkınAkınözü can’t surpass themselves but I think we all agree that they did in episode 64. I have no words left to say but only that I will forever love #ReyMir and the feelings these two can evoc together on screen.
#Hercai
2
The way they both execute their work and role with love, dedication and respect will never cease to amaze me. And the best summary for episode 64 is: watch and feel it. 💘
#Hercai

Ali Ilhan once more showed us that he is a great storyteller and master with outside shoots. He interprets, understands and adds his own touch to the story of Hercai every week. I loved the direction of the woodpile scene and the last scene at the hospital.
#Hercai

WORDS I LOVED
M: “I have no more important business than you and my son, Reyyan.”

R: “I learned from both of you not to scream and hope for the best. Hope is like a tree that takes root in the middle of the desert and out of spite survives.”
#Hercai

R: “God gives people only those tests through which they are able to endure.”

M: “They will burn and we will be reborn from the ashes.”

M: “We have the strength to do this. But sometimes not enough. No money, no power. Sometimes nothing is enough to save someone.”
#Hercai
6
DETAILS I LOVED
The flowers in Reymir’s room are the bouquet that Miran brought Reyyan. I love that such details are kept.
#Hercai
7
GOOSEBUMP MOMENT
M: “I will show you what it means to get used to a life without you. Let’s go.”

M: “If you die, I die too.”
#Hercai
8
THINGS I WISHED DIFFERENTLY
Reyyan lies in favor of Dilsha about only finding out recently about her condition.
#Hercai
9
OPENING SCENE
M: “Stay silent, don’t say anything else.”
R: “When I give birth, I will die.”
M: “Reyyan, please shut up. It cannot be, no, no, no. Don’t talk about death.”
#Hercai
10
➡️The only thought of losing Reyyan is unbearable for Miran. He even can’t stand it to hear it said out loud. I think this is also a proof why he didn’t tell Hazar what Dilsha said to Reyyan. He can’t hear it and he can’t say it out loud.
#Hercai
11
➡️It was interesting to see that Miran, like always, enters in denial. He even says: “this woman would lie to prevent her loved one to become a killer.”
#Hercai
12
REYMIR IN THE CAR AND MEETING AZRA
Miran: “Azra, come to the fountain immediately.”
Azra: “If Reyyan insists on giving birth, it will be very difficult for her to escape.”
➡️It will be very difficult to escape, ama, not impossible! We trust in these words.
#Hercai
13
REYMIR&THE WOODPILE SCENE
M: “Is this trial not over yet? Didn’t I pay enough yet? What kind of test is this? Is this the price I am paying for what I did? My heart is burning. The woman I love is telling me that she is dying. U are exchanging your life for Umut’s life
#Hercai
14
I cannot live without you. (...) How can I give up on you? How can I let you die? I can't breathe without you. This is how it will end, let’s go.” (...) You cannot leave me without you”.
#Hercai
15
➡️There is soooo much to say about this particular scene. I loved the duality that this scene had because we had two of the opposing elements present: wood (fire) vs. fountain (water). Once M. starts walking, the woodpile is first entered by Miran&Reyyan follows him.
#Hercai
16
The woodpile that seemed like fire wood ready to burn any second. Thus, we see this kind of circular woodpile enclosing them, with seemingly no exit, visually representing what Miran was feeling in that particular moment and what he said out loud:
#Hercai
17
“I am burning. My heart is burning.” Miran kneels and Reyyan follows also in this movement. They get both into the position of kneeling. Reyyan begging Miran to stop and Miran asking “Lord, is this the price I am paying for what I did?”
#Hercai
18
I liked the fact that the topic of revenge came back in this particular scene and M’s question if he hadn’t yet received absolution for what he did in the first place to Reyyan. And isn't it an interesting detail that he was asking this while surrounded by fire wood?
#Hercai
19
And that Azize’s revenge started first and foremost because of what happened because of a fire? Have you seen that orange night light of the street lamp really gave the effect of ReyMir burning in a fire?
#Hercai
20
And the way the wood was piled up it seemed like spades, all pointing at ReyMir? As if the world is attacking them and their love once more? As if those cut branches from trees are the sins the children are paying for what their fathers did?
#Hercai
21
Remember the tree of life and how Nashu said that children are the branches of a single tree and parents are the roots? So literally Reyyan&Miran (=branches) are still paying the price of the revenge of the roots (= Azize and Nashu) that was started so many years ago.
#Hercai
22
ReyMir are in this position, burning from pain, because Füsun poisoned Reyyan as a consequence/payback for the revenge as such. And all this because Ayse/Nashu made mistakes that Miran and Reyyan are now paying for.
#Hercai
23
And yet Miran after some time literally draggs Reyyan out of the single exit of the woodpile (= fire) and coincidentally in the same direction as to where they go there is a fountain (= water). And next to that water fountain, next coincidence, a cow is tied up.
#Hercai
24
So Miran led Reyyan into that fire by himself (=revenge) but the same way he led her in, he will lead her out again too and extinguish both their fires (=saving all of them lastly) and thus the presence of a water fountain.
#Hercai
25
And let’s look at the meaning of the cow, as many of you pointed this out already: “Nearly universally the metaphysical meanings for Cows include life’s continuance, motherhood, Mother Goddesses and a nurturing soul.” (cit.)
#Hercai
26
So we can read this scene as: after the fire ReyMir are going through, water will await them and with it, we have life’s continuance and motherhood.
#Hercai
27
THE BRIDGE SCENE
M: “Since you don’t care … it doesn't matter if I die or live. Let’s go, let’s go together. you, me and our son. Right away.”
R: “What are you saying.”
M: “I am saying what you are doing to me. It’s what you are doing to us.
#Hercai
28
What is the difference between living without u and jumping from here? There is none. What were u thinking when u prepared us for a life without u? You will die, we will be sad for a bit and then we move on and continue with our lives, really? Is it really like this?
#Hercai
29
No! Whatever will be, I cannot be without you. Did you forget? If you fall, I will jump after you. If there is no Reyyan, there is no Miran. You didn’t understand it, did you?”
#Hercai
30
R: “You make us live. Just as you saved me then from death, do it again. Save me and Umut, you will find a way, I know. Please don’t let us go.”
#Hercai
31
M: “I won’t let go, I will never let go. I will find a way. I will never let my son or you go.”
➡️Well, there is no need for me to say how beautiful and heartbreaking this whole scene was as such.
#Hercai
32
I loved that Miran looked at the back mirror to be sure there was no car coming and that they were safe to exit the car in the first place. I loved the way we got to see first Miran looking down to the darkness of the river, the abyss awaiting down there.
#Hercai
33
Because the moment he heard that Reyyan was dying, he knew that this abyss is what he would be facing in a world without her. Him saying he would rather die here and now then being left without Reyyan for a minute.
#Hercai
34
And I loved how the perspective changed and we saw Reyyan looking down that darkness and abyss and that it was the exact moment her survival instinct kicked in again.
#Hercai
35
She was reminded how she was saved by Miran the first time and how he would do anything to save her and their baby again this time. The way she literally threw herself at him reminded me of someone drowning who finally gets a lifebelt to hold onto.
#Hercai
36
And of course what I loved the most about this scene: the bridge is the place where all the magical/life changing events happen for ReyMir: this time it was the moment Miran gave Reyyan back her will to life. I will add this moment to my BRIDGE-thread later. :)
#Hercai
37
MIRAN IN UMUT’S ROOM
Have you seen the two coloured boxes next to Reyyan’s picture? Umut, Yildiz and Reyyan all together on that little shelf?
#Hercai
38
Here you go 💚💛💚💛
#Hercai
39
➡️I love the way this scene was shot with the intermingling of Miran’s voice with Reyyan’s voice. And what I loved the most was that Miran read the part that concerned the facial features: “your hands, your face, your nose will be like your dad or like mine?”
#Hercai
40
It’s something Miran normally always commented about Reyyan. To see and hear Miran reading about this question that Reyyan asked herself and how their child would look like, warmed my heart.
#Hercai
41
And another cute detail: did you see what was written on Reyyan’s diary?

“Let’s make today beautiful”.

#Hercai
42
AZRA-MIRAN
Azra: “That poisoning and miscarriage caused her today’s problem.”
➡️Ok, so now we know for sure that Reyyan is fighting for life because that poison is still in her body, I get that. Ama, my question: why does she still have bleedings?
#Hercai
43
Why isn’t the date of the miscarriage not written down in her patient file? Maybe the bleeding was interpreted as a miscarriage but it wasn’t. Maybe she never lost the second child!! What if Azize stopped the bleeding/the poisoning of affecting both children&Reyyan?
#Hercai
44
What if the twins being born and Reyyan surviving too redeem Azize for what she did to the three lives in the first place? She destroyed three lives: Hazar, Miran and Reyyan, but she would saved three lives too: Umut, Yildiz and Reyyan.
#Hercai
45
If this comes true, I might, only might, forgive Azize. And I wish this mucize so much to become true!!
#Hercai
46
ZEYFIR
I truly don’t understand why on earth Firo would go to sleep with Zeynep in ReyMir’s room. Really. They could have given them Gönül’s/Sultan’s room … and Zeynep could appear in her night gown also from those little kitchen stairs.
#Hercai
47
The only thing I enjoyed in that scene: that room went back to ugly after Reyyo’s furniture left the room. Another thing I wished for was F. telling M. in another moment that he got married. He could have said: “now it’s not the right time, I'll explain later.”
#Hercai
48
And what I also found strange: the newly weeds go to the Umut konak after the fire, but no remark is made about them whatsoever. They could have cut F’s scene in the car, behaving like a boss who doesn’t drive his own car anymore&add a few lines later in Umut konak.
#Hercai
49
FÜSUN-MIRAN
M: “Because of you, my wife may face death.”
I loved how clearly Miran went and warned Füsun and even more when he said: “I need to be with my wife, my wife (with his eyes closed).”
#Hercai
50
When in the past his anger was only calmed down with Reyyan by his side, he now is able to be (more or less) calm on his own for her sake. I think this is great progress.
#Hercai
51
FÜSUN-FIRAT
Fü: “He [Miran] knows everything wrong. Don’t let him confuse you too.”
Fi: “I know you poisoned Reyyan.”
➡️Yes Firat was there when Reyyan came and confronted you Füsun, off yaaa!!
#Hercai
52
MIRAN GOING TO AZIZE
What I loved:
- Miran went up the stairs in slow motion and with so much difficulty showing the weight of desperation that he was carrying on his shoulder.
#Hercai
53
The slow motion also because he was hesitating with himself if this was the right place to go after eveything that happened.
#Hercai
54
- The way Miran leaned against the wall bcs he couldn’t hold himself together.
- Miran probably received the first hug in his adult life from Azize. Not that I liked this but it’s something to remember.
#Hercai
55
- A very, very particular detail we kept seeing is Azize still wearing those black gloves. We only saw her once again without them when Nashu took them off in episode 52. So, we see her caressing Miran’s backhead with the gloves on.
#Hercai
56
Remember when Füsun said to Azize: “everyone you touch is dying.” For me her not taking those gloves off is also a sign of not wanting to touch them anymore as Azize but as Ayse. Wearing the gloves she touches them as Ayse and not Azize.
#Hercai
57
The hands that touched them before brought destruction, the “new” hands should bring peace.

-Detail to remember: we saw Azize kneeling in front of someone for the first time and it was Miran.
#Hercai
58
- M: “This Füsun poisoned my wife, not only did she kill my unborn child, now also Reyyan. This poison has not disappeared. My wife got sick from the poison. If Umut is born, Reyyan will die.”
➡️And at this point we witnessed for the first time Azize’s sincere tears.
#Hercai
59
- I have to admit, although I hate myself for it, I got emotional when Azize called Miran “my child.”
#Hercai
60
- M: “Remember when I was a child you told me: whenever you are afraid, run to me. Once u find me, all ur fears will be left behind.”
➡️A. double’s pain when hearing this sentence: Because back when she told him these words as a child, they were all fake, all a lie.
#Hercai
61
They were all an evil plan to tie an innocent child's heart to her sick and revengeful mind. So, she feels double pain for lying to that child and pain for what Miran is going through right now.
#Hercai
62
M: “What is this if not hell? Or the Lord will let us both live, or I give up my life. If there is no R. there is no M.
Because she is my soul. She's my heart, she's my everything to me.”
A: “This time I'll be by ur side for real. This time I'll be with you for real”
#Hercai
63
All I can say: Akin and Ayda killed this scene.
Bravoooo!!
#Hercai
64
SHÜKRAN
“Do you know what R. did for you? Why did R. rescue me from the darkness? If it weren't for her, would you be able to see your son’s face? Stop bothering R, otherwise, you will see me in front of you. I am watching you. I swear I have nothing more to say to u.”
#Hercai
65
“Who are you? You are not my Dilsha. Why do you hate Reyyan? What did she do to you, besides good, tell me. I will take you to the village, away from Reyyan. If you don’t go with me, you will die in my eyes.”
#Hercai
66
➡️I really, really liked that we saw a strong position of Shükran against D. I can’t imagine how much this must hurt a mother - seeing that your child became crazy - or rather became that evil to the point to tell her/him: “if u don’t go with me, u will die in my eyes”
#Hercai
67
HAZAR-MIRAN CONFRONTATION
M: “I went to my grandmother and hugged her because it was necessary.”
H: “Don’t make me mad. What do you mean it was necessary. Why do you hug this woman?
#Hercai
68
M: “Because I was very scared. I got so scared that I needed the presence of someone I once trusted. I wanted this woman who I hugged as a child to tell me: everything will pass.”
H: “What do you want to pass? What? Why are you looking for support from this woman?
#Hercai
69
What terrible thing have you done? Don’t hide. Speak! Is your uncle right, are you doing one thing with this woman?”
M: “I am acting as one with Azize. Because I am her grandson. Satisfied?”
//SLAP//
H: “Speak normally to me. Whatever you hide. Tell me.”
#Hercai
70
M: “If Reyyan gives birth to Umut, she will die.”

So much to say about this scene too...
#Hercai
71
First of all I hated that H. was thinking that M. did something bad. I hate how he let himself be influenced by C’s words in the last epi. M. who didn’t do anything “bad” since the revenge now should have done something so “bad” he can only share with A. Ah Hazar, ah!
#Hercai
72
I hated the slap&the non-apology after. M. is a grown up man, not a 5 years old boy. Not that it’s ok to slap a child, but u get my point. And I hated it even more because H. reminded me of N.&C. who hit women&men in the first place. Only weak men hit, never forget!
#Hercai
73
The non-reaction of Hazar whatsoever to what Miran just told him. No hug for his son, nothing. Ofc Hazar would run to Reyyan, yet, Miran was left alone and abandoned once again to cope with such a burden on his own.
#Hercai
74
Thus, isn’t it in a way ironic that what Miran feared happened? He said: “I needed someone to hug me and tell me everything will be alright.” What did Hazar do? Left him probably in the middle of the street alone and ran to Reyyan.
#Hercai
75
Miran was abandoned by his grandmother, he was abandoned and even cast away by his mother and now he was abandoned by his (re-found) father.
The only one who has never left him or abandoned him is truly R. The only person he could ever talk to openly, was Reyyan.
#Hercai
76
Now that Reyyan is the one who is fearing life, he can’t search for comfort in her because he tries to be strong for her. Understanding and remembering this triple abandonment, we can also understand better his words he keeps repeating to Reyyan:
#Hercai
77
“Reyyan, I can’t live without you. You never left me. You won’t leave me.”
#Hercai
78
REYMIR AND THE STARS
R: “To know you are near, to feel your strength makes me stronger Miran.”
M: “I cannot be as strong as you are. I am only stronger next to you.”
R: “You will be happy no matter what, ok?”
#Hercai
79
M: “Reyyan, I can’t live without you. Do not say that. (...) You never left me. You won’t leave me.”
R: “I will not leave. We won’t cry anymore.”
M: “I looked at you and my eyes filled with tears.”
#Hercai
80
Ah, my heart was weak in this scene because of two things:
1) We get Umut and Yildiz together again. ReyMir watching the stars, Reyyan caressing her baby belly.
#Hercai
81
2) I loved the parallelism of episode 2 and episode 64. When the car broke down in episode 2 Reyyan said:
"I looked at you and my eyes filled with tears.”
Now Miran says he is only strong if she is by his side and he ends it with repeating her words:
#Hercai
82
I looked at you and my eyes filled with tears.
#Hercai
83
I love the glimpse we get of Miran remembering every single word Reyyan ever told him… also during revenge, also in that fateful night, he knows and remembers everything Reyyan ever said or told him.
#Hercai
84
OFF VOICE LATER AT NIGHT WHEN MIRAN GETS READY
“The man lost his own daughter on the operation table, the incident caused a great trauma to the man.”
#Hercai
85
➡️So this doctor lost his own daughter (a girl) on the operation table… what if he will be such a miracle that he will not only make Reyyan live but together with Umut also Yildiz will be born? A way his dead daughter is reaching out a hand to her dad to says:
#Hercai
86
“Look baba, stop blaming yourself, you saved another innocent life, keep doing what you know the best: safe lives.”

MUCIZE INAN > GIVE IT TO US!
#Hercai
87
AZRA-FÜSUN
Why is Füsun so stupid when it comes to Arza? How does she think she can be so evil and yet Azra will be ok with it or believe any of her words?
#Hercai
88
MIRAN SOMEWHERE IN THE NOWHERE
I know this is truly pure coincidence but I loved the blooming white trees at the roadside when Miran got out of the car. I liked that Miran was driving a white car. I loved that the mood was WHITE.
#Hercai
89
White as symbol of faith, fresh start, beginning, possibilities, when in fact he was searching for the mucize doctor. I loved to see the trees in bloom as it reminded me of Reyyan’s words she told Umut: “let spring come soon, let us meet soon.”
#Hercai
90
HAZAR-AZIZE
I didn’t understand right away Reyyan’s “you know what I want” directed at Hazar when they hugged goodbye at night. Only when Azize said: “you are here because Reyyan asked you to come”, I understood Reyyan must have asked Hazar to go and talk to Azize.
#Hercai
91
H: “I will try to forgive you.”
A: “I believe in miracles, Hazar. believe it too. Reyyan will be cured. Our umut will be our miracle, I know.”
#Hercai
92
The parallelism of Azize touching and caressing Hazar the same way she did with Miran the night before, always with the gloves, caressing as Ayse and not Azize.
#Hercai
93
SHÜKRAN’S AMULET
Sh: “Keep it Reyyan, I don’t need it anymore. Let it be with you, daughter.”
R: “How can it be, you never took it off your neck.”
➡️I can’t make out this scene to be honest. What is this amulet and why haven’t we seen it never before.
#Hercai
94
If u need a reminder
#Hercai
95
Why bring something like this into the story when there is no meaning to it and the character is exiting the show? Ama did you watch it carefully? It looked so similar to the stone we saw in episode 1 that Miran carried with him to protect himself from the evil eye.
#Hercai
96
Reminder number 2
#Hercai
97
They are 2 pieces of triangle that together form a square with four corners: Miran, Reyyan, Umut and Yildiz? Tamam, maybe I exaggerate😁😁😁, but what is this amulet in the first place? Why do we see this now?
#Hercai
98
MIRAN AND THE DOCTOR
M: “My wife is pregnant. If she gives birth, she will die. If we have an abortion, she will neve have children again. She says she will give birth even if she dies. (...) Everyone deserves a second chance.
#Hercai
99
And for me, the one who most deserves a second chance is you, doctor.”
➡️Again, what if the mucize doctor's second chance consists in a miracle helping deliver Reyyan her mucize twins?
#Hercai
100
AZIZE AND HAZAR AT UMUT KONAK
H: “Don't angel’s wishes come true? (...) Let him take my life and give it to my daughter.”😥😥😥
➡️Yaa, what kind of foreshadowing is this?
#Hercai
101
THE ROUND TABLE AT UMUT KONAK
A: “Cihan isn’t responsible for the fire.”
Az: “Who was it then? Who did it?”
A: “I don’t know, but it wasn’t Cihan.”
#Hercai
102
➡️From the glances that were exchanged between Azra and Azize it was clear who set the fire and Azra gladly had the confirmation later too. I still don’t get why Füsun is so stupid to think that Azra would trust her.
#Hercai
103
MAHFUZ&REYYAN
R: “Where are we from?”
M: “Artvin. We were wrestlers in our family. A lot of mountains, close to the sea. The land is fertile, you can plant a tree everywhere. (...) She [Reyyan’s grandmother] was always funny, she always smiled.”
#Hercai
104
➡️I loved how we got to know why R.loves nature so much&why she has such a beautiful smile,she inherited it from her grandmother. Still we don’t know how&where Z.&Mah. met in the first place&who Asiye is. She isn’t apparently M’s sister&Artvin is far away from Midyat.
#Hercai
105
AZRA-MIRAN OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL ROOM
A: “You need to pressure her. Your child … right now.”
➡️I found this scene so very touching because until that moment Miran was full of hope. He was ready to take Reyyan even until the end of the world.
#Hercai
106
M. was hopeful with her and he was strong for her. He even told Hazar “we go directly to the airport”&yet u see how his face changes&his world collapses completely when he realizes what Azra is telling him&what he would be forced to say to R.once he entered her room.
#Hercai
107
REYYAN-MIRAN
R: “Let’s go, you arranged everything, you talked to the hospital.”
M: “True, arranged. But … we have too little time. Azra said the situation is very serious. Boarding a plane is dangerous for you. If we don’t give up on our son …”
#Hercai
108
R: “You promised me. I don’t want to give up on our son. U said if necessary, u will turn the whole world, but u will find a cure. You said that Umut&I would return home together.”
M: “It’s not working, Reyyan. It does not work … We don’t have enough time or energy.
#Hercai
109
If there was a tiny little hope, I would be ready to give everything that I have right now. For you, for our son. But it’s not enough, it’s not enough. My only hope is you. Don’t do it. Maybe you will make a sacrifice and give life to our son.
#Hercai
110
But with you, you will take my hope, the hope of our child and our families. Don’t leave me, our son and the other kids without a mother. As long as we have time, let’s say goodbye to our son.”
#Hercai
111
R: “I know, I don’t have a chance. But if I give up on Umut, I can’t become a mother again. I won’t be able to give you a child anymore.”
M: “Okay, we will not have a child from our blood. But we can have many children whom we will love more than life.
#Hercai
112
We can shelter a child who has just been born. We can give him a new life. Maybe we will lose Umut, but we can become “hope” for one or more children. Behind your fears there are so many children with their hands outstretched to you.”
#Hercai
113
➡️How very beautiful were those words Miran told to R.? I watched this scene several times and all the times I needed to cry. I got emotional that Miran kept himself from telling Reyyan that he flew personally to that doctor but couldn't convince him but instead said+
#Hercai
114
he would give up everything he had right now if this meant being able to keep Umut. I loved the way M. patiently and with so much love told R. why she couldn’t die and why they had to let go of their son. And we also see that these words changed something in Reyyan.
#Hercai
115
Whereas in the beginning she switched into denial mode/angry/deceived mode, not looking at Miran and even looking away, with every word he said to her he was able to make her feel his deep love, endless devotion and reassurance.
#Hercai
116
She slowly, carefully and shyly looked at him to see his reaction to her words “I can’t become a mother, I can’t give you other children”. The only thing that she is “in control of” (her own body and energy), is being taken away from her again.
#Hercai
117
Maybe also for the cultural traditions, she felt pressure of “needing” to give children to Miran and a certain shame if she couldn’t. Because let’s think about it: ReyMir never talked about children as such as every normal couple does at some point.
#Hercai
118
They never talked about what would happen if Reyyan, in case, couldn't get pregnant. They never talked about “different” attempts/stages it might need (😁) to get pregnant.
#Hercai
119
So, Reyyan only knows that her and Miran’s biggest wish is to have children but she doesn’t know what he thinks about what would happen if they couldn't (biologically) become parents.
#Hercai
120
To hear his words, knowing in what kind of traditional context Hercai is set, about adopting a child and becoming parents not by blood but by heart, was for sure also something Reyyan needed to hear.
#Hercai
121
Not that this would ease her pain for what she was facing, but to have the endless reassurance of your partner in such a delicate matter, is vital. Knowing that if she couldn't “achieve” becoming a mother, this would not make her any less valuable or loved by Miran.
#Hercai
122
REYMIR IN THE HOSPITAL CORRIDOR
M: “We are ready.”
➡️I read so much critique about this “we are ready”. That it was Miran who decided for Reyyan to have an abortion.

This got me really sad and also a bit angry because we can accuse Miran of many things, but not him acting as the “patron” over Reyyan and deciding for his wife what she has to do. Many said that Reyyan’s face here was waiting for Miran to say something else.
#Hercai
124
I interpreted her face as pain because she realizes that Miran has lost his final hope, not him deciding over her or Umut as such. Because remember how hopeful he was until the morning? And remember in the last episode when Reyyan said to Azra:
#Hercai
125
“We went through so much, Miran always found hope, he never gave up.” So, she realizes that he gave up hope and this, of course, destroyed her even more. And that it was Miran saying “we are ready” was also not a surprise to me.
#Hercai
126
We saw how much he was struggling to utter those words himself. He was shaking, he blinked several times as if he needed to focus again because his mind was so blurred and confused with so much struggle to utter those words.
#Hercai
127
And isn’t it also the case that in a moment in which we are unable to speak for ourselves, people who love us the most, will hold our hand and do it for us? ❤️💔
#Hercai
128
Next thing, we see how R. starts walking and we see how M. pulls her back to tell her everything he needs to tell her and Umut before leaving. The way he looked at her saying this is not a decision against you, our son or our love, but it’s necessary for you to live+
#Hercai
129
+because there is no life without you. Hearing Reyyan’s heavy sobbs, seeing her tears streaming down her face, Miran kissing her forehead first, caressing her face and then gently touching her shoulders, hips until he finds her belly:
#Hercai
130
M to Umut: “I beg your forgiveness, my son. I apologize very much. I could not, I could not, I couldn’t make it. I couldn’t let you both live. Do not think that I gave up on you, but I couldn’t give up on you mother. Can you hear me son, forgive me. Forgive me."
#Hercai
131
M to R: “I love u very much, more than anything else. Nothing is more important to me than u. I wish, my angel, in order for our son to live, I had to give my life. I wanted R. but I couldn’t. I couldn't give u both life. And you forgive me, forgive me, please.”
#Hercai
132
➡️If this wasn’t the most heartbreaking scene we ever witnessed Miran in, I don’t know what else it will be. The way he talked to his son, telling him he didn’t give up on him but couldn’t give up on his mother either.
#Hercai
133
Telling him directly he did everything he could to make him live. Asking for forgiveness for not being able to protect his life. I loved the way he stood up, looked straight into R’s eyes telling her how much he loves her&that nothing was more important than her.
#Hercai
134
That he would have died for their son if that meant for him to live. The way Reyyan shook her head at those words. And as heartbreaking as this is, he wanted to do the same as Reyyan wanted to do for Umut, both wanted to die to give life to their child.
#Hercai
135
And lastly that he asked Reyyan for forgiveness for what she was going through.
#Hercai
136
R: “Don’t say that. If there was even the slightest chance, you would have done everything, I know. You would give life to both me and Umut. If you had the chance, you would, I know.
#Hercai
137
➡️The way R. took M’s face into both her hands&said back to him: “I love you very much.” The following embrace and the way they couldn't look at each other anymore but kept on holding hands. Miran holding her hand firmly until the last moment he possibly could.
#Hercai
138
Reyyan walked away, but stopped and looked back at Miran who was finally looking at her. Again I read some critique that said that it was R. who hoped for Miran to have changed his mind. I disagree. I think it’s just what ReyMir always do and what makes them unique.
#Hercai
139
The last gaze is always meant to be for the person they love the most: Reyyan looking back at Miran and Miran searching for Reyyan's gaze to meet hers for one last time.
#Hercai
140
We further see that the moment Reyyan’s physical touch and eye contact is broken, Miran starts to feel the pain in his heart and gets difficulties with breathing.
#Hercai
141
REYYAN ALONE IN OFF VOICE
R: “My son, my Umut. That is not how I imagined it. You should have been born. Fill everything with your scent. Your gaze would touch mine. I would wait for your 1st smile and in that moment I would erase everything bad that is in my memory.
#Hercai
142
And when u said “mum”, I would be reborn. Apparently we are not destined to live with the 3 of us in our little world, my son. I was told to give up either my life or my son. Ur father is ready to do anything for both of us to live. If we only had even a little hope.
#Hercai
143
It did not work out. It was not destined, goodbye my Umut. Forgive me. Please forgive your mum. Forgive me.
➡️As if we were not crying enough this off voice monologue of Reyyan broke our hearts further. The line that stuck with me the most was:
#Hercai
144
“I would wait for your first smile and in that moment I would erase everything bad that is in my memory.”
Was it only for me or wasn’t she only referring to the traumatic pregnancy/birth but everything that was related to the revenge as such when she said +
#Hercai
145
“everything bad that is in my memory.” And to remember now her Urfa wish and wanting a child together with Miran this hurts even more.
#Hercai
146
She hoped that the smile of their child would make her forget all the evil that was done to her but which now won’t become a reality…. don’t touch meeeeeeee!!!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
#Hercai
147
MIRAN ALONE SEEING THE FLASHBACKS
We see several flashbacks but I want you to focus on the last two: Miran sees
1) flashback of the gendre revelation: “Miran: if it’s a circle, we have a daughter. Reyyan: no it’s a line, a boy is coming, check it out”.
#Hercai
148
Followed by the flashback
2) Miran come feel it, he is kicking. Then the scene gets interrupted by the doctor who is text saying “Miran bey, tiny, but there is hope. We need to talk” and then Miran starts running.
#Hercai
149
➡️So I ask you: why did Miran remember the moment they were talking about a daughter and son if later they had a scene in which Reyyan talked about the importance of raising a boy to be a good man when they knew it was “only” Umut?
#Hercai
150
And the flashback is followed by a kicking memory and in that moment the doctor sends the message that there is hope… isn’t this a big coincidence? I will continue here and say: Umut var, Yildiz var!
#Hercai
151
He got the message in time to safe Umut and Yildiz because we saw from the final scene that Reyyan couldn’t go through with the abortion.
#Hercai
152
FINAL COMMENT
Although this episode was THE episode I cried the most in all three seasons together I cannot not mention once more the incredible ReyMir scenes we got. What #EbruŞahin and #AkınAkınözü delivered was PERFECTION.
#Hercai
153
They were able to get us emotionally so involved as if everything we see was true. No words are enough for the final scene and the way they both broke down together as future parents who are about to abort their child.
#Hercai
154
I bow my head in deep admiration&gratitude to both of them.Thank u for giving life to R.&M,thank u for giving us this once in a lifetime chemistry to witness this story so painfully,yet so beautifully&poetically&to show us what it means to love&being loved in return
#Hercai
155
As I want u to leave on a positive note, I will quote Dante Alighieri&his Divina Comedia, as tomorrow marks his 700th birthday.

“E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle”
(Inferno XXXIV, 139)

Translated: “And after we exited [hell] we got back to see the stars.”
#Hercai
156
ReyMir are right now in hell but they will get out of it and they will see the stars again.

Thank you for reading.🦋💘

I guess I'm not bothering you if I talk about the special ReyMir beauty Ebru&Akin had in episode 63. What keeps me in awe and amaze is how they are still able after 63 episode to make it look like that ReyMir fall in love with each other every day more&more.

You are what u are looking for.
If u aren’t looking for the mansion of life, let it be.
If u are looking for a bite of bread, be bread.
If u are looking for a drop of water, be silent

Ebru and Akın
Like last week my heart cried with Reyyan and this is thanks to Ebru’s performance also in this episode. The way she perfectly shows what a mother is capable of doing for her child really left me speechless once again.
#Hercai

I loved Miran also in this episode and it amazes me how Akın is able to portray Miran as a man who falls in love every day more and more with his wife. What he said: “I fall in love with you every day more and more”, was truly displayed by Akın’s interpretation.

Mini-thread on the recurrent symbol of the BRIDGE in #Hercai ✨✨

#Miran #Reyyan #ReyMir #EbruŞahin #AkınAkınözü
Let’s begin with asking ourselves, what is a bridge in the firsr place? A bridge connects to riversides that would otherwise run parallel to each other for hundreds and hundreds of kilometers but never touch. They would never touch, if they were not connected by a bridge.
#Hercai
Everything important that happened to ReyMir, happened on a bridge, even the first tantim was shot on a bridge.

Some thoughts on ep.60 of #Hercai

Oh dear, I came to die with u
If u are fire, to burn
If u are rain, I will get wet
If you're cold, I came to freeze

Oh, darling
Not for jewels from u, I came to get a smile.
If u die, I die, I came to stay alive.
- Rumi
