At the trial, Meryem heard the verdict from her beloved: 8 years in prison.
Meryem, who lived in love and understanding, fell into the world of betrayal and cruelty.
Entering the cell, the women greeted her warmly and offered a cup of hot tea. And then they asked for what sin, she got to this place.
Meryem did not want to tell what hurt her already, so she said briefly - an accident.
One of the prisoners, Selma, received an order from Yurdala Sargun to poison the life of the new girl. In return, he will help her resolve the issue with her husband, who wants to take her home and son away from her.
Selma, hearing the reason why Meryem was convicted, knocked a glass of tea out of her hands, and then hit her in the face. Selma asked, since when is the murder of a pregnant woman considered an accident? Selma promised Meryem that from that day on, she would not have peace. And she began to fulfill her promise.
Selma received an order from Riza (Yurdal's man) to kill Meriem. Selma was in no hurry to obey the order. At first, she wanted Riza to fulfill his part of the agreement and take away the house and child from her husband. But up to this point, Selma made fun of Mery in every possible way.
For several nights, Meryem was forced to sleep on the cold floor under a thin blanket. Selma forbade the girls to go to bed and warned the women that if someone helped her, they would deal with her. The inmates did not want problems, so, despite their sympathy, they decided not to interfere.
It is not known what kind of torment Meriem would have had to endure at the hands of Selma, but one incident helped the girls find mutual understanding.
Meryem was cleaning the toilet floors when Selma approached her.
The woman warned that this was only the beginning, and then went into the booth. At this time, two prisoners from other cells came from Selma's husband and chased Meryem away, they began to beat Selma to give up her house and son.
Selma was unable to resist the women, but she held out to the last. Meryem understood that chaos was going on in the toilet and, running there, she hit one of the women with a mop on the back, and then called the guards.
Selma appreciated Meryem's act. Despite the evil that she did to the girl, she saved her. Since then, Selma has become a friend of Meryem.
But this was not the end of Meriem's troubles in the cell.
