Cecilia (Daniela Castro) is a beautiful young girl, who, upon the death of her parents, is forced to live with her two spinster aunts, Natalia (Delia Casanova) and Evangelina (Diana Bracho), in the city of Guanajuato, where both are highly respected for their ancestry and morality.
Natalia is excessively affectionate and understanding, while her sister, Evangelina, is extremely repressive and authoritarian, in addition to posessing the leadership within the family; therefore, she has to be granted total obedience, which causes Cecilia not to live her youth naturally.
Fortunately for her, Cecilia has a friend who becomes her only contact with external reality; this is Sofía (Cynthia Klitbo), a schoolmate of the same age, but with an open and free perspective on life. Over the years, a strong bond of friendship and trust has been established between the two young women, despite Evangelina's opposition.
This friendship seems indestructible, until the appearance of Gerardo (Raúl Araiza), a handsome young man, who is initially attracted to Sofía while Cecilia only inspires him a little pity. But over time, Gerardo's feelings change, until his pity ends up turning into deep love, which will cause Sofía to break their ties of friendship and become a terrible enemy for the couple.
