Plot

Arib is an obedient and responsible son who loves his parents. He lives away from his hometown to pursue his job. Ahmareen is a college student, who lives in a hostel near Arib's lodgings. Arib falls in love with her at first sight, but she leaves the hostel and returns home before he can approach her and confess his feelings. He searches for her, but without success. The story gathers momentum when, under pressure because of his mother’s ill-health, Arib agrees to marry Angabeen, whom he has never met before. At the wedding ceremony, he discovers to his shock that Ahmareen is the younger sister of his wife, but, by then, it is too late. Angabeen is equally unhappy with the marriage. She and her cousin Farooq were in love with each other for years, but could not marry because of conflicts between their families. Initially, both Arib and Angabeen struggle with their feelings. However, as time goes by, they accept each other and grow closer. Arib discovers that Angabeen and Farooq were in love, but shows complete trust in his wife and is touched by her commitment to their marriage. The couple is expecting their first child, and their families are very excited about it. However, their lives take an unexpected turn as Angabeen dies after giving birth to a daughter. After some time, both families decide to get Ahmareen married to Arib, so that the baby can grow up under a mother's care. On the wedding night, Arib confesses his feelings for Ahmareen. Ahmareen gets furious and comes to the conclusion that he schemed to marry her after causing Angabeen's death through ill-treatment and neglect. She leaves the house before Arib can explain anything, and disappears, taking the baby with her. Farooq helps Arib to track down Ahmareen, and clears the misunderstandings between them. Ahmareen realizes that she had over-reacted and apologizes. Arib and Ahmareen are reconciled and begin a new life together.[2]
