Carlin, a gentle soul burdened by promises made to her late sister, raises little Pretty with grace, grit, and unwavering love. Karan, her loyal friend and constant companion, silently guards his affections, hoping for a life with the family he adores. But fate takes a turn when Aravind, Pretty's real father, returns-grieving, transformed, and aching to reclaim the daughter he never held and the woman who selflessly kept her safe. As memories of the past unravel and hearts begin to mend, Carlin finds herself caught between loyalty and love, friendship and truth, motherhood and womanhood. In the symphony of monsoon rains, flower-scented shops, and the laughter of a growing child, the trio navigates pain, forgiveness, and the enduring bonds that tie them together.
