Aşk ve Gözyaşı

The three-year marriage between Meyra, the daughter of one of the country's most powerful families, and Selim, a successful lawyer from a modest background, appears enviable from the outside. However, behind this splendor, unshared feelings, unspoken resentments, and delayed confrontations accumulate. The growing silence has turned two people who once looked to each other with love, devotion, and hope into strangers. The cracks in Meyra and Selim's relationship become unmaskable, while the emotional rift between them and the pressures within their family deepen this estrangement. While Meyra chooses to turn a blind eye to these problems, Selim feels he can no longer bear it and searches for a way out, even if it means burning his boat. But at this point, unexpected news disrupts the balance of their relationship and their lives. Fate will not only force them to remain together, but also to confront their pasts and each other honestly.

Learning that Meyra has three months to live is a devastating turning point for Selim, who is determined to get a divorce. Although he thinks that this marriage can no longer be sustained, knowing that the woman he once loved is walking towards death forces him to rethink this decision. Meyra, on the other hand, tries to accept this news with great composure. Despite experiencing inner turmoil, she chooses to keep her feelings bottled up and her illness a secret from both her family and those around her. However, years of conflict with her family, especially tensions with her mother, make this process even more tiring and lonely. As time runs out, Meyra begins to face her fear of being alone, while Selim begins to question what it means to stay. The couple, who are struggling under the pressure of Meyra's time shortage and Selim's feeling trapped, will experience new confrontations in the face of this surprise visitor from the past and unexpected events.

Selim is deeply unsettled by Meyra's illness and doesn't want to leave her alone. Although he thought his feelings for Meyra had faded, the news of her illness brought some feelings back to light, and he decides to plan a special anniversary event. However, Ercan, unable to bear the fact that Meyra and Selim's relationship has seemingly recovered, thwarts this plan and manipulates Meyra. Yeliz, meanwhile, is determined to investigate Dilşah's past and uncover her dark side. Through the detective she hires, she obtains crucial information about Dilşah's past. She's determined to tell her father, Çetin. Selim's family, believing Selim has told Meyra he wants a divorce, decide to make a new move. Eda and Oğuz go to Istanbul to see Meyra. Their sole purpose is to tell Meyra not to divorce Selim. However, Meyra has no knowledge of the divorce.

Meyra and Selim's relationship continues to walk on a thin rope between love and distrust. Taking refuge with Selim's family in Izmit, the couple briefly recaptures the warmth of old times. However, Meyra's illness and increasing forgetfulness erode the trust in their relationship. Meanwhile, Meyra's family loses all trust in the groom because of the listening device found in the house and the divorce protocol in the safe. Çetin gives Selim three days to reveal the truth. The mounting pressure and gossip cast a shadow over both the couple's relationship and the family's reputation. Unable to bear it any longer, Selim confesses that he had prepared a divorce petition in the past without Meyra's knowledge. This confession brings Meyra's repressed memories to the surface one by one; broken trust gives way to indescribable disappointment. For the couple, caught between love and regret, nothing will ever be the same again.

As Meyra's illness progresses, her mind becomes confused; she can no longer distinguish reality from fantasy. Ercan, who secretly loves her, attempts to take advantage of this situation. Meyra, momentarily mistaking Ercan for Selim, draws closer to him. Just then, Selim arrives, overcome with rage and beats Ercan. Meyra, however, doesn't understand what has happened; she doesn't even remember what happened. After this incident, Selim is consumed by both a protective instinct and a profound sense of guilt. Although Meyra tries to stay away from him, Selim is always there for her during her crisis. The old love between them resurfaces with pain and regret. As Ercan's schemes continue, Meyra struggles with both her illness and the love she still harbors for Selim. This tense balance between the three turns into a turning point, where a misunderstanding that begins with a kiss escalates and changes everyone's fate.

Meyra’s condition worsens, and as she hovers between life and death, she and Selim once again try to hold on to each other. Just when it seems like things are finally improving, tragedy strikes, with Ercan’s death, Selim finds himself in prison, accused of murder. As Meyra is taken to Germany for treatment, fate once again intervenes to separate them. Ten months pass. Selim, now a strong and composed lawyer, begins a new chapter in his life, but the scars of the past remain etched in his heart, especially the lingering hurt and unresolved love he still feels for Meyra. Meanwhile, just as Meyra is about to launch her own company, she is mysteriously kidnapped, only to come face to face with Selim. Old wounds reopen as love, betrayal, and vengeance intertwine. Yet until the truth of their feelings is finally spoken, the tragedies of their past will continue to resurface, refusing to let either of them move on.

Meyra and Selim’s love turns into a confrontation between betrayal and conscience. Selim learns that Meyra hid the truth in court to protect her brother Harun, destroying the trust between them. As Meyra’s family falls apart, Selim’s love and anger collide. Still, he doesn’t report Harun’s crime to the police, a moral test he chooses to endure despite his feelings. Meyra is shaken by Selim’s silent sacrifice; though their relationship seems over, the emotional tension between them reignites. Harun’s guilt and escape trigger a tragic chain of events, forcing Meyra to battle for her brother while Selim struggles with justice. Both burdened by the past, they find themselves unable to break away from each other, their love surviving in the middle of a crime, a lie, and an unforgiving heart.
