Logline Two families have to share their time to raise a child. As the child's secret unveils, the two fractious families are thrown into an unsettling chaos.
Synopsis Bank employee, Lita (27), accidentally meets her ex-lover, Sandi (29), a furniture businessman, at his furniture gallery. They remain in contact as Lita seeks Sandi’s advice to equip her new house with furniture. Sandi then frequently comes to Lita’s house and meets her mining employee husband, Bob (31). Sandi often brings over his online entrepreneur wife, Eli (24), to visit Lita’s family. Faced with the pressure from their families and society on being childless, both couples confide in each other and become very close. One day Lita has a baby, named Aryo. Sandi and Eli often take care of Aryo as Lita and Bob are busy.

Five years later, Aryo suffers from dengue fever and needs a blood transfusion. However, Lita and Bob’s blood types do not match with Aryo’s. Surprisingly, Aryo’s blood type matches with Sandi’s. The harrowing revelation strikes them: Aryo is son of Sandi and Lita. Things become complicated. They realize that they have to save Aryo’s life and future, but their own household is in a big mess. Sandi, Eli, Bob, and Lita have to raise Aryo with heavy hearts. Unable to handle the situation further, Bob decides to divorce Lita. Months later, Sandi leaves Eli without reason. He disappears without knowing that Eli is pregnant with his child. As time goes by, Lita grows closer to Eli and they live together, both raising Sandi’s sons.
