background.

trigger warnings: death, domestic abuse, car accident

in her early years, ela harbored a profound desire—to possess the same beauty as her mother. she believed that beauty held the key to power and happiness, but little did she know how complex her path would be, being born into the prestigious ersoy family in turkey. the ersoy name carried both wealth and a burden of historical significance.

yet, the reality of ela's life was far from the glamorous facade that many would assume. her parents' tumultuous relationship often made headlines, becoming a subject of widespread criticism. kaan ersoy, ela's father, made the controversial decision to leave his wife of fifteen years for a younger, more attractive, and supposedly more fertile woman, alara urusoy, a model.

despite the opposition from both families, kaan and alara were determined to be together and hastily tied the knot mere hours after kaan's divorce was finalized.

nine months later, ela ersoy came into this world, bringing both joy and unexpected sorrow. although her father had hoped for a male heir, his heart quickly embraced his precious little girl, and he reveled in the newfound role of fatherhood. tragically, their time together was cut short when kaan's life was claimed in a devastating car accident, leaving ela merely fifteen months old. the opportunity for a loving father-daughter bond was cruelly snatched away.

at just twenty-one years old, alara found herself widowed and grappling with the immense loss. however, she was fortunate to receive a generous monthly allowance, easing some financial burdens. despite the grieving, alara immersed herself in an active social life, attending lunches, cocktail parties, and dinners. eventually, a pivotal decision emerged in alara's life as she chose to move to london.

as the heiress to a colossal hotel empire, ela was set to inherit a substantial trust fund once she reached twenty-one. however, her father's family disapproved of alara's lifestyle, leading her aunt to seek custody of ela when she was just five years old. without the need for a trial, alara agreed to relinquish her rights as a mother in exchange for a considerable sum of money. she did, however, request to spend some weeks with her daughter during the summer, more to maintain appearances than out of genuine affection. as a result, ela relocated to her aunt's opulent mansion in antalya.

ceyda, ela's aunt, was delighted to have her niece under her care. she had longed for a daughter of her own, and now she finally had one. however, their relationship appeared more polite than affectionate, with ceyda showing care but keeping a certain emotional distance. struggling to adapt to her new environment, ela desperately attempted to please those around her, especially her aunt. the abrupt changes in her young life began to take their toll, instilling doubt about her own worth. she couldn't help but compare herself to her mother, believing beauty and perfection were attributes solely gifted to alara, fueling a deep-seated desire for acceptance.

upon turning eighteen, ela received a rare opportunity to spend the summer in cannes, where her mother now resided. this prospect excited her immensely, as it had been years since she had the chance to spend significant time with her mother. the possibility of finally building a meaningful relationship with her was all she had ever longed for. as she grew more confident in her appearance, she hoped that she might now be deserving of her mother's attention and affection.

however, what she didn't anticipate was how profoundly she would fall in love with the newfound freedom her mother's company provided. it was like being released from a long confinement, and ela relished every moment of her emancipation. the initial rush of freedom captivated her so much that she no longer wished to return to her previous confines. what was meant to be a two-month stay stretched into three, then four, as they continued to enjoy their time together in cannes. eventually, her mother made the decision to move to the united states, and without hesitation, ela followed suit, drawn in by the irresistible allure of the dazzling hollywood lights.

a child, that's who she was. the clothes, the makeup, and her attitude could have fooled anyone that she was no less than twenty-five, but she was only a nineteen-year-old girl trying to co-exist in a world of adults. it was the summer of 2018 when she met miles foster, a talent agent, ten years her senior. he fascinated her, as did the rumors surrounding him. he was known to be a 'bad boy', the kind that dragged a playboy reputation. how could someone like him have eyes for someone like her? getting involved with him was an act of desperation.

simultaneously, ela encountered another young man, someone her aunt would approve of: well-mannered, intelligent, well-traveled, and her age. he treated her like royalty, and their connection felt effortless. in a perfect world, he would be her choice over miles. in a perfect world, her self-hatred wouldn't have gotten in the way.

in a sudden, impulsive decision, ela accepted miles' proposal, despite her aunt's disapproval. her determination at nineteen was unshakable. miles revealed his true nature even before they married, displaying forceful and domineering traits. despite these warning signs, ela, struggling with low self-esteem, found his confidence appealing. they married in the winter of 2018, but what followed was a harrowing nightmare. miles's violent outbursts instilled fear in her, leaving her desperate for an escape. before her twenty-first birthday, she bravely confronted him, expressing her desire for a divorce, and ultimately returned to turkey.

after returning to turkey and gaining full control of her inheritance, ela became the center of attention, relishing the newfound freedom and the attention people showered upon her. for the first time, she experienced a normal life, surrounded by friends her age and focused solely on her own desires, not seeking approval from others. however, the lavish and reckless lifestyle she embraced left her feeling ashamed.

things took a turn when her beloved aunt fell seriously ill, triggering deep fear of losing the only family member who truly showed her love. after her aunt's passing, ela retreated to the family's summer house. with her two cousins, she became a co-heir of the renowned 'ersoy resorts.' despite this inheritance, she realized that she lacked passion for the family business.

seeking a sense of normalcy, she made a life-changing decision to return to the united states two years ago. there, she studied to become a teacher. now, on the verge of her first year as a teacher's aide at a local preschool, ela looks forward to a fresh start and a more fulfilling path ahead.

wanted connections.

the one that got away: her first and possibly only love so far. they met when ela was 18 and moved to california. they had a very brief romance before she chose miles over him. to this day, she regrets this decision.

friends: since she moved here, ela has been leaving her comfort zone and she's been trying to improve her social life. so i'd love for her to have a small group of friends.

work related: she is going to start working at the local preschool, so either other teachers or maybe the parents of some of her new students.

neighbors: she lives in a small apartment in downtown.

fwb: ya know the drill lmao

unrequited feelings: either ela or your muse admire the other from afar and somehow they haven't mustered the courage to talk to the other.

awkward date: they went on a date for whatever reason but it didn’t work out and they ended up never talking again.

wrong idea: ela dislikes this person because she thinks they’re not a great person but of course, all ela needs to do is give your muse a chance.

misunderstanding: these two didn’t have a great start. maybe ela threw coffee on them by accident, or was talking to your muse s/o and unintentionally seemed like she was trying a move and your character took it the wrong way.
