Forgiveness No Punishment

Sibel Kara

Sibel Kara

"How is she?" He asked the same doctor who has been treating her since the first time, as soon as he came out from the operating theater.

"The next 48 hours will tell us if she stays or decides to go. She had lost a lot of blood recently and this new operation made her heart stop beating for 30 seconds.

"She died for 30 seconds!" He exclaimed and stepped back, shocked. Sinbad still couldn't comprehend why she did it and now almost lost her.

"In this situation, I need to ask what happened that made her take this extreme decision. Have you two had any problems lately?" Doctor Adil stepped forward from his duty because it was unexplainable all that happened.

"Lately, no, but... I... we are... 'Please find out the truth and end my suffering!' 

Her last words ring in his head.

"Did she do all this to get away from me?" He thought as he falls on his knees before the doctor.

"You need to be strong for her!" The doctor gets on his knees before the broken man. He is an exception of Oriental men who hurt and don't care what happened next.

"She is dying! She killed herself because I have hurt her. What have I done? Just a week ago, I hurt her in every worst way a man can towards his woman. I cheated, I beat, I humiliated, belted, slapped, raped her many times." He confesses his sins before the doctor as now he can't carry them anymore. They hurt. His redemption is like a hot iron knife cutting through his chest."

"In my whole life as a doctor at this hospital, I have never encountered a woman who would go to such extremes. I have seen their men bringing them to the edge of death by beating or shooting them in defense of their honor. None of those women tried to hurt themselves. They have accepted their fate, even when the men were wrong. But she is different…

"Yes, she is different. After all, she is Sibel Kara!" Sinbad interrupted, recognizing the significance of her name after all that had happened.

"Are you saying that the girl lying there is the famous Sibel Kara, the youngest daughter of Ahmed Kara?" As the words came out of the doctor's mouth, his memories flooded back. He knew the girl very well.

"Yes, the one and only Sibel Kara! We have enmity. I did all those things to break her. It's good for me that I broke her beyond repair." Sinbad surrendered without any conditions and spoke those words.

"You thought that by doing all those horrible things she would be willing to obey your desires, your wishes. Right?" Sinbad admitted by bobbing his head.

"You forgot who she is?

SHE is Ahmed Kara's daughter. He has raised his girls to be superior, especially Sibel. No one could force her to do something she didn't want, even her father couldn't when he was before the judge and Sibel declared that she saw him killing someone. And here you are, the man who decided to break an untamed heart, and now you are facing the results of your stupidity." The doctor was shocked that he just had in his hands the heart of Ahmed's daughter, the one girl who opposed the lying and went ahead for the truth.

"I can never lie!"

"I am saying what I saw!"

"She never lies," Sinbad mumbled as he was trying to get up from the floor. The doctor helped him, fearing he might collapse and shatter worse than a glass against the floor. Sinbad was about to lose his sanity, his breath, his heart, his life altogether with her.

"I love her, she is my breath. If she goes, I go with her. It's not from a guilty conscience but because I truly love her, and without her, I will not breathe." Sinbad let himself in the doctor's arms, crying like a child.
