The story is about Shahida, a doctor who runs her clinic to treat the disadvantaged.[6] She lives with her mother, Begum Nasir, who is the only one that understands Shahida. Begum Nasir plans to marry Shahida off to someone kind and rich, but she refuses it due to her past. It is known that Shahida's parents have divorced for personal reasons and that Shahida chose to live with her mother. Margaret, a nurse and close friend of Shahida, tries to assure Shahida about her situation. Later her father comes to meet Shahida, much to Begum Nisar's dismay, and Nisar tells Shahida that he will be moving to California. Then Shahida's cousin Yousaf returns from abroad and wants to marry Shahida, but she refuses him because he once left her when they were getting married by their parents. Then Shahida begins to treat a patient named Gullu, who can't speak and walk properly, after his parents' death. After some years, Gullu begins to speak and walk properly due to Shahida's care, and Gullu confesses his love to Shahida, leaving her stunned.[7]
