After a totally disastrous marriage, she has decided to keep her heart locked away for the rest of her life from the most hurtful things that can ever come to her.
To be precise, men. She has finally realised that it's so stupid to rely on any man or bid her own happiness on them.
Even if it can be tough to be a bread earner and a single mom at the same time, even if she feels lonely at times, she will never ever enter any romantic relationship anymore.
There'll only be one person she will love with her whole heart, her babies. She can do this, and she must do this, because she is an independent strong woman who is the owner of her own fate.
However what happens when the man she has solely voted to be away from comes to her aid? He comes back and asks her to be his wife?
"Marry me ex-wife" on his knees, he begs. "Sorry, ex-husband, I can't."
