Kiss count = 1

One episode and one kiss already. And there was Emergency Love that took forever for the first kiss but had plenty of near-kiss moments.

Now, Necme and Neriman seek Sinan’s help to set up Omer. The dialogues are really funny at times. 

Defne and her boss argue, and she’s fired. If that’s not enough, she learns that her brother Serdar has gotten a 200,000 liras loan from a loan shark and things don’t look good for Defne. 

Defne talks to her friends and Nihan and Ismail, but she doesn’t accept their help.  

Will destiny bring someone to help her?
