When they make the oath of eternity to each other, both learn painfully that life does not allow such equivalence. Their lives, which changed overnight, lead Kemal to Zonguldak. Nihan in the arms of a choice she made. Years later, a mining accident will put two paths ahead of Kemal as a test. Will he continue to hide from everything he's run from over the years, or will he come back and reclaim what he's lost? When Kemal chooses one of these two paths, the distance between him and Nihan will close, the playing field will be leveled and the established balances will be shaken. Kemal's greatest test will begin the day he makes that choice. From that day forward, a choice is worth a love affair... |
