Synopsis

[edit]

Season 1

[edit]

Fitri is a countryside girl who is naive, old-fashioned, cheerful, kind-hearted and far from being judgemental towards others. She came from a place called Wonogiri and lived with her aunt, as her parents had long died. She had a relationship with a man named Firman, a man who came from Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia.

As her wedding with Firman was drawing near, Fitri came to Jakarta to meet Firman's family. But as soon as she arrives in Jakarta, she is informed about Firman's death. So instead of attending her own wedding, she attends her fiancé's funeral. But that didn't deter Fitri. Fitri decided to stay in Jakarta, but she told Firman's family that she's going back to her village.

Fitri is shy, which was why she didn't tell Firman's family the truth. The other reason why she chooses to stay in Jakarta is to not let down her aunt. As if Fitri was blessed with unluckiness, her wallet was stolen at the bus station when she was wondering where to go next.

Fortunately, Fitri gets a job at a Soto and Rice food stall owned by Maya, a woman who was kicked out by her own father, Mr. Hutama, a very successful and wealthy businessman. The main reason was for marrying Bram, a man who was poor but hardworking who was not acknowledged by his father.

Moza is the daughter of Mr. Hutama's late best friend. Because of this, Mr. Hutama is hoping to see his son, Farrel, to marry Moza someday. Farrel himself is not up for another relationship especially after the departure of his ex-girlfriend, Mischa, to study abroad. Farrel then met Fitri. After various incidents, the relationship between Farrel and Fitri slowly building, but the jealous and scheming Moza kept on disrupting the relationship between the two. Hence, Farrel must choose between Fitri or his family business.

Farrel convinced Moza there's nothing between him and Fitri. But just when everything started to cool down, Mischa returned. Farrel then again was forced to choose between these two women. Alas, Farrel chose to be with Fitri instead. They became one of the most enviable couples for those around.

[edit]

After Fitri fell at a bridge in Wonogiri, Farrel and their family panicked. Bulik Rini was also agitated, but luckily Fitri was safe and was found by some villagers. The wedding party was held with joy. Since they lived together, conflict between in-laws automatically appeared. Grandma was always provoking Lia, as a result, Fitri and Lia often has conflicts. Aldo and Kayla's conflict also heated up, Aldo was assumed too busy taking care of his parents and Norman. The household life of Maya and Bram was also a dead end. Their decision of working together in one office, at Emil's property agency, became a boomerang. At the moment, Maya and Bram kept their husband and wife status a secret. And Emil not knowingly, ends up liking Maya.

Moza also has a story. Vino who is prideful, is the new working partner at Retro, this makes Moza irritated. Vino's cynical attitude towards women is caused by his past of bad experiences with romance. They fight frequently. Many people thought Vino will end up with Moza. Fate says differently. Moza is destined to be with Aldo. Norman and Yuga had rented a house. Yuga was happy to meet Nabila again who is now a teacher in the school.

Season 3

[edit]

While Fitri became pregnant, Farrel was jailed accused of murdering Bram. Hutama and Lia are shocked, but not Maya, who filed for this case. Alas, Farrel was free; however Mischa provoked Maya to get inheritance from Hutama using Alif as an excuse. Maya succeeded in her provocation and she took over her father's wealth. This made Hutama, Lia, and Oma even unhappier. They moved to Fitri and Farrel's rented house and were pleased there. Unexpectedly, Kayla got into a coma donating her bone marrow for Finza. Hadi changed towards Aldo and Moza who were then married. A cold war between them was unavoidable.

One day, Fitri was shocked to see Bram in a public place. Everyone thought that Fitri was hallucinating. Mischa found a new partner through Bram's disappearance to attack Fitri and Farrel's happiness, Faiz claimed to be Hutama's only true son. Not Farrel. Hutama's entire family was in shock.

Season 4, Ramadhan 1

[edit]

Through the hardest and longest struggle, Farrel and Fitri's son was delivered safely. Farrel asks Mrs. Lia to name their son because Mrs. Lia is his most beloved and respected mother. Mrs. Lia was overwhelmed with the given honour, she named Farrel and Fitri's son, Raffa Emeraldi Hutama.

Mrs. Lia reminds Farrel of Mr. Hutama's last wishes before he died, to protect his family and the company, Retro, from anything and anyone. Farrel and Fitri are in no position to refuse this. Mischa and Faiz were surprised to see the return of Farrel, Fitri, and Oma. Moreover, Mrs. Lia asks Farrel to return to work at Retro.

In the meantime, Bram managed to get hold of the CCTV master video and witnessed how Mr. Hutama died. Bram has always been looked down by Mischa and Faiz. So when he found it was them who killed Mr. Hutama, Bram selfishly uses the opportunity to threaten both to get what he wants instead of handing them to the authority.

Tristan kidnaps Moza from Aldo while they were on a holiday in a villa. Aldo had searched for Moza everywhere but he still could not find her for a while. When Aldo had found Moza, she had already become Tristan's wife.

So how will Farrel and Fitri know and finally get Mischa and Faiz to confess that they killed Mr. Hutama? Will Mischa and Faiz ever leave Fitri, Farrel, and Raffa alone and let them live happily? What exactly happened to Aldo and Moza? How's the relationship going between Maya and Bram?
