Phoenix

Episode 14: In the Murmur of the Sea
Location: Kaş, a seaside village

The sun slowly sank toward the horizon, its golden light flooding the room of the small apartment. Phoenix sat alone on the couch, holding the little notebook in which she wrote down every important memory and feeling.

Phoenix (inner thoughts):
Every image, every memory… my fiancé and his lover… Can, Albatross… the events at the company… they all live in my heart.

The girl slowly ran her fingers over the pages of the notebook, her eyes filling with tears. Each page was a fragment of the pain and disappointment of the past.

Phoenix (whispering):
Why did it have to happen this way? How could I allow myself to be deceived, to be hurt…?

The gentle sound of the waves outside the window calmed her, yet inside her emotions were still raging.

Phoenix closed her eyes, and moments from the past came alive before her. She saw every scene: her fiancé’s lies, the secret smile of his lover, the moment with Can when she was thinking of Albatross.

Phoenix (inner thoughts, with a quiet sigh):
Everyone knows what happened at the company… the looks, the whispers… as if I have to relive every moment again.

She stroked the notebook and picked up the pen. She wanted to put all her feelings onto paper, hoping to bring some order to her heart.

Phoenix (writing, to herself):
Albatross… every memory of you… every smile lives inside me. But now… now I must walk my own path. I can’t let the past define my future.

Slowly she stood up, holding the notebook close, and stepped out onto the balcony. The calm murmur of the sea and the salty wind filled her soul, as if she were receiving new energy.

Phoenix (inner thoughts, determined):
Like a phoenix… I must be reborn from my ashes. Every pain, every tear… will turn into strength. From now on, I decide my own life.

She gently closed the notebook, took a deep breath, and looked toward the horizon where the sun had already set, yet the shimmering sea still offered hope.

Phoenix (to herself, with a soft smile):
Here in Kaş, alone… I will become myself again. I will be reborn from my ashes, and no one and nothing can stop me.

In the quiet of the room, accompanied by the murmur of the sea, Phoenix slowly began to let go of the burden of the past and took the first small steps toward her new life.
