We lost my father as a result of a heart attack at work. This unexpected death of course turned our lives upside down. My mother was not working and unfortunately did not have a job. My father had some money he had saved. We managed with that at first. However, when that money ran out, we were in a very difficult situation. We could no longer pay any of our bills. One day my mother said to me, “Idil, I want to talk to you about something important. Our landlord, Mr. Tarık, wants to marry me. He divorced his wife 4 years ago. He has two daughters, but they live with their mother. I don’t know Mr. Tarık very well. However, he seems like a good person. I will accept his offer. I am doing this for both of us. Please understand me.”
