However, Loya is often sick with coughs and fever, and starts living with her devoted grandmother, Erzade, in the mountains for her health. Her mother, Havva, works and lives in the nearby city with her father, Berat. Loya learns to read fortunes in coffee grounds from her grandmother, and she becomes very good at it, weaving imaginative and inspiring stories of the future for women in the village. Loya knows that the land around her is in danger of being destroyed by deforestation by the mining companies, and she's devastated when Berat dies in a landslide as a result. Shortly after, Loya gets diagnosed with lymphoma. She spends a lot of time with the her best friend Bahar’s mother who is an activist and leads the protests in town. Her mother Havva can’t afford to live in the city anymore and moves to the village with her grandmother Erzade. Havva reaches out to Loya’s biological father Richard for Loya’s medical expenses. This is a total shock to Loya who thought she already had a father. Furthermore, in a riot by environmental activists, Loya finds out that Richard is leading the gold mining operation that killed her father and is destroying her family land. When Loya finds about this secret, she makes it a point, despite her increasing illness, to imbue in her father a love of the land and stop the destruction... Loya is bilingual, she is learning English, but Turkish is her first language and she must speak both.

Female, 63, Turkish, a sturdy, loving, spiritual woman who possesses the air of worry that comes from having to work hard all the time, Erzade is Havva's mother and the doting grandmother of 11 year old Loya, who gets diagnosed with lymphoma. Erzade lives in the beautiful countryside outside the town of Artvin, where Havva and her husband Berat live, and Loya has come to live with her because of her health. Erzade adores Loya and will do anything for her granddaughter; she even teaches Loya how to read coffee grounds, which Erzade does for various women of the village, and Erzade is very proud of Loya's talent at reading and telling fortunes. Erzade is a traditional Turkish woman who, when she learned that Havva was pregnant out of wedlock, forced her to marry Berat, a distant cousin, fearful that Havva's brothers would kill her because of the disgrace to the family. When Havva contacts Richard, Loya's biological father, to tell him the truth and get help with Loya's medical expenses after Berat dies, Erzade makes it very clear that she does NOT approve this decision...
