Premise

A woman dies while giving birth to a twins. In a helpless condition, their uncle (Chilhiya Moosa Manik) handover one of the twins to an infertile parent (Aminath Rasheedha and Ibrahim) living in Male'.

Several years later, Ifasha (Aishath Shiranee), an unattractive nerd, abandoned by her mother (Mariyam Haleem), joins a class to complete her studies where she is harassed and bullied for looking ordinary. Nifasha lashes out at her classmate, Fayaz (Hussain Sobah) when he approaches her in public, with whom she later bonds once he apologizes for being rude to her. A romantic relationship grows between them which resulted in them getting married and living their happiest lives with their daughter, Shuha (Mariyam Sheleen), until Fayaz's unfortunate demise in a fire accident. In a state of shock, Sheleen loses her voice and becomes mute.

Shuha sees Fayaz's twin brother, Latheef (Hussain Sobah) in a park and brings him home treating him as her father. Latheef tries every possible way to compensate for the loss of Shuha, though Nifasha's affection for Fayaz remains irreplaceable. Latheef narrates his past to Nifasha; an unhappy marriage with Aishath (Aishath Jaleel) gets influenced by the latter's vile mother (Arifa Ibrahim) who spoils their only child, Fizee (Aishath Fizee), a classmate of Shuha.
