Ali Rıza Bey's eldest daughter. She is intelligent and loves reading, but because of a physical defect (a blemish on her eye), she falls behind her sisters in beauty, which leads her to choose a dignified and mature path from an early age. She stands by her father against the family's corruption and her mother's mistakes, but she also criticizes her father's weakness. To escape the 'hell' at home, she marries an older widower with three children (Tahsin Bey) and moves to Adapazarı. Unfortunately, she does not find what she was looking for there either and is dragged into a different form of hell: never-ending fights with her new husband's family; however, out of pride, she does not return to her father.
A long illness she suffered as a child left a spot on her right eye. To compensate for this disadvantage, her father had her well-educated, making her intellectually equipped. Although she is the same age as her siblings, she puts herself in the position of being the family's second mother.
Small and petite, and despite reaching the age of twenty, she is far from physical attractiveness. She has a spot on her right eye that is a legacy of the diseases in Anatolia.
Tahsin Bey
Ze beschouwt haar echtgenoot in Adapazarı minder als een levenspartner dan als een reddingsboei of een werkgever die ze zal bedienen.
Leyla, Necla
Ze veracht hun gemaakte, opgemaakte wereld en hun immoraliteit, en kijkt op hen neer.
Ali Rıza Bey
Ze is boos op haar vader; want terwijl hij het gezin had moeten redden, bleef hij passief. Toch is hij de enige die haar begrijpt.
