Yetim

Tonight I will kill someone. It doesn't matter who it is. The one who pulled my ear, tripped my foot, left my ass exposed, threw fluff in my face, called me a pissant, called me stupid, called me a moron, called me a loser, the one who laughed in my face like a mule instead of running and calling for help when my little finger got stuck between the iron bars on the playground on the terrace and turned blue. The first one who came out in front of me.

Being an orphan is like this. Your mother and father are alive, yet you are still an orphan. As if you have been thrown into this world and forgotten. When they remember, it may be too late, how many murders have you committed, how many schools have you torched, how many houses have you run away from?

This time Hatice Meryem is telling the story of an Orphan. Like dreams, fairy tales, murder novels. Like a movie. He makes us go through that difficult path together with this little girl whose “existence is already a crime in itself.” We pass through dark slopes, wet sheets, cold courtyards, and backyards, we change and transform. We understand what being an orphan is.
