That doorman is detained here after yesterday's raid

That's what the officer told me

Ask him to allow you to meet him and ask him about my son

He has a son other than Sharara

But he's not his real son his name is Naseem

He may be our son

Meet Abu Ammar and ask him

I already met him

Did you ask him?

What did he tell you?

Tell me what he told you?

Didn't you always say that a mother can recognize the scent of her kids

out of hundreds of kids?

When you were buying drugs from that kid

off the street...

Didn't you smell his scent?

Didn't you recognize him?

Weren't you the one

who came up with the eyes sparkle theory and that a mother

can recognize the sparkle in her kids' eyes

even when the world is engulfed in darkness?

Didn't you recognize the sparkle in your son's eyes?

Aren't you the one with a mother's heart

that guides you and tells you?

Didn't it guide you?

Didn't it tell you?

Didn't it tell you that he's Zain?

Zain who you used to buy drugs from on the street?

You lying

You're saying that to make me feel guilty

Hazem!

Hazem!

Is he okay?

Did you see him? Where is he?

He's fine, don't worry, Mia

The officer reassured me

His injury isn't serious

They extracted the bullet and gave him a blood transfusion because he bled a lot

But he's okay

I want to see him

I want to see him

You will

But what matters now is that you focus

We need to get out of here so you can see him

Forgive me

Thank God he's okay

If you need anything, please call me

Thank you both

No need to thank us, dear

When he wakes up, I'll tell him that you're worried about him

Sawsan, my dear! Come here, sweetie

Let's go, sweetheart

I wish him a speedy recovery

- Bye - Bye

Let's go, sweetie

Oh, Lord

Don't be sad, honey

Hello, Doctor!

Hello, Mr. Adel!

I'm sorry, I know you called me yesterday

but I wasn't paying attention and forgot to call back

And Waheed, may God forgive him

has only told me today that you came and asked for me

- Pardon me, please - It's okay

But maybe if you'd answered me

this wouldn't have happened

Why, what happened?

Don't worry about it

It's all good

- Are you alright? - Yes, but...

we were visiting our neighbor’s son

Sharara?

Yes, Sharara

Do you remember him?

Do I know him? I mean have I met him at your shop?

Remember when you lost your wallet

and we found it with some kid?

- Yes? - That kid is Sharara

God seems to love this kid, Doctor

What happened to him

wasn't easy at all

Indeed, people show their true colors during times of adversity

I don't know

God seems to love this kid

Do you need anything from me, Doctor?

- No, thank you - If you'll excuse me

- Bye - Bye

- Hello - Hello

I am Doctor Hazem Daoud

Hello, Doctor, he hasn't woken up yet

- Did the doctors reassure you? - Yes

They said they extracted the bullet from his chest

But the poor boy lost a lot of blood

Thankfully, God granted him a new life

He'll wake up soon

I hope so

I hope so

Do you know us, Doctor?

Are you Naseem?

Who are you, Doctor?

I am Zain's father

Sharara's father

Silla!

Silla!

Silla!

- These are for you - What are all these things?

Your father took them out of the car but forgot to give them to you

Dr. Hazem gave them to him yesterday at the hospital

I'd like to know what you've written recently

I haven't taken a peek at this in a long time

Can you give up this habit? Are all mothers like this?

- You're back early! - Yes

Something strange happened

- I couldn't wait any longer to tell you - Okay, what is it?

I was with Dr. Hazem

We found Zain

We found your brother

Letting go

is the only thing Mia didn't do

At a time when everyone asked her to forget about her kids

she refused to forget

She was confident they were alive and that she would find them

and eventually she did find us

Get me out of here!

Can anybody hear me?

I want to see my son!

Get me out!

I want to saw him

Get me out, I want to see my son

I want to see my son!

Here you go

Sign here, please

Thank God you got out safely

How are you now?

How am I?

Are you okay?

Are you comfortable?

Remember when I used to tell you

that nothing in this life upsets me

as they're all experiences that we learn from?

I didn't know there are experiences

that instead of teaching you they leave a scar in your heart

that hurts you for so many years

Forgive me, Mia

Please forgive me!

I tried to find an excuse to forgive you, but I couldn't

I could smell your scent on his clothes

I thought to myself, "It's normal since she's always with us"

But how can I justify having his watch in your home and in your bathroom?

How can I justify that?

How can I justify that my husband used to shower in your house?

I'm sorry

I'm sorry, I have nothing to say

Did I hurt you?

Do you know what hurt me, Alyssar?

That I love you

You're my sister

My friend whom I trust and confide in

But what did you turn out to be?

My husband's mistress

Couldn't you find another man to love?

Believe me, I'm very ashamed of myself

There wasn't a single moment

when I wasn't feeling guilty

I knew what I was doing was wrong and horrible

- But... - But what?

You were weak?

You took advantage of his vulnerability

when he used to go to you and tell you about your friend

So you decided to make it up to him

Why are you here, Alyssar?

Are you here to ask for my forgiveness?

So that you don't feel guilty

like it's just something that happened and it's over now?

I wish you hadn't come

I wish you had disappeared gone away or even died

Mia!

Hazem never loved me

Hazem never loved anyone but you

Take me to my son

Thank you very much

What's wrong, Mia? Why did you stop?

What do I tell him?

How do I tell him?

What if he doesn't accept me just like Shams didn't? No, I can't do it!

Calm down, Mia, calm down

You'll find a way

I know you will

Because you are his mother, after all

You'll know how to talk to him

You're strong

and you can do it

Come on, come on, come on!

Let's go!

How are you feeling? Are you okay?

- Hello, how are you? - Hello

Hello, Doctor

Thank God you're okay

Forgive me

Everything that happened to you was my fault

No!

Do not say this

This is God's will

Do you work here?

So you came to check on me

I'm fine

Thank God

But you seem very tired

Yes, very tired

May God forgive my dad

He ruined his life

He hurt us

and hurt good people like you...

with the poison we were selling

But he's not your father

You and Naseem are not his children, right?

That's right

Kind of

He got Naseem from a camp

after his parents died in the war

And he raised him

As for me, he found me on the road

after my parents drowned in the sea

Then, he registered me as his son

So you don't know anything about your parents?

And you don't remember them at all?

No

All I know is that they drowned in the sea

After they left me with our relatives

Our relatives couldn't support me

Probably because they have many children

And then, my dad...

Abu Ammar

raised me

along with Aunt Zahra

may God protect her

What if you find out that your parents are still alive...

and your mother is still alive?

Would you like to meet her?

Of course I would

Who doesn't wish to have parents?

Would you accept me as your mother?

What are you saying?

Accept?

Will I ever get such a chance?

Thank God you're okay, dear

Do I know you?

If you had opened the wallet when you took it from me...

you would've seen your picture with your sister

I mean, you might've...

remembered something

They say forgetting is a blessing

But forgetting

may be the most difficult task that is beyond your control

Because it's something you can't control

The scent of a perfume

a certain word

or a song

could destroy the entire castle within which you fortify yourself

And in an instant

you get back all the memories

which you thought you had forgotten

Suddenly, in an instant, you find yourself

remembering everything you thought you had forgotten

Sometimes, you forget to forget

Then, in the midst of the hustle and bustle of life

you remember

If only there was a magic key that could help us forget

If only we could forget the treachery of those who let us down

If only we could forget the difficult days

If only we could forget the moments of fear and loss

If only we could forget

Will I live here then?

- With you? - Forever, sweetheart

Will my sister, Shams, live with us?

She'll always visit us

Zain, my dear

Your room is upstairs

You can check it out if you want

Okay

But what about my brother Naseem?

- Can he visit me? - Whenever you want

Actually, your dad and I will enroll you in the same school

I'm tired

It's okay, Mia, just endure it, please

The injection is in an hour

We have to complete the treatment period

so we don't have to go to rehab

I'm moving my stuff out of the house today

I rented a studio apartment

It's nearby

So I can stay close to you and the kids

Stay!

I love you so much

SHAMS

Sweetie

Why are you sad?

Is Sharara no longer my brother?

Won't he live with us anymore?

No, he will be your brother forever

You can visit it whenever you want

and he can come and sleep at our house whenever he wants, too

If it turns out that I have parents like him, I won't abandon you

I'll take you to live with me

Oh sweetheart

Go in and pack your brother's things

so you can visit him and take them to him, go on

Go!

- Zain? - Shams?

I got you a gift

- They gave you my room, didn't they? - They told me to stay there

But I didn't move any of your stuff

You can check it out

Mom!

What's wrong, honey?

Mom

Wasn't this picture taken in our house in Damascus?

Yes, it was

But why is the frame broken?

We have to buy a new one

Gladly
