One day, Kasih finds out she is pregnant and Fajar is the father. Fajar and Kasih marry. Kasih gives birth to a baby named Intan. They live in penury. Fajar decides to stop his studies and work to meet the needs of his family. However, unfortunately Faiar dies in an accident. Kasih's parents remarry her with Dr. Frans. Kasih does not bring Intan with her to the new marriage, and leaves him with Lastri, Fajar's Mother. Lastri is angry about Kasih's marriage and departure and considers that Kasih has betrayed Fajar by leaving her baby. Intan ( Naysila Mirdad) grows up innocent and sweet, and loves Lastri ( Hj. Nani Wijaya) a great deal. Lastri is very protective over Intan because she does not want her future damaged by her father, Fajar. Despite her efforts Lastri Intan gets pregnant. Lastri then asks Ello( Glenn Alinskie), Intan's close friend, to take responsibility. Ello hesitates, as he is at college, but in the end he decides to marry Intan, although his family is against the union. After they marry, Intan moves to Ello's House. Intan innocently starts a new life with Mr. Arman (Anwar Fuady) Mrs. Nadine (

) and both of Ello's older brothers; Jemmy (Manfreed) and Rommy (Rama Michael). Happiness doesn't last long for Intan as, a few days after her marriage, Ello has an accident and dies. Nadine and Arman blame Intan for Ello's Death and evict her from the house. Intan begs Arman to let her stay, at least their son is born. Intan gives birth to a son, Rangga (Ryan Maladi). Nadine helps Intan to get to hospital. Intan's early life in this house is not easy, because Nadine persecutes her. But Intan stands up to her with patience and love, treating Nadine as a mother and eventually Nadine's heart thaws. Intan is uncomfortable about staying on in her mother-in-law's house and, in order to look after her son, starts a sales job. At work, Intan meets Rado (

). and then moves to work at a salon. The salon is owned by Rado's Mother, Wina ( Nunu Datau)and there she meets the assistant of the salon owner, Lila (Ingka Noverita). Lila also likes Rado, and tries to separate Intan and Rado. Meanwhile, Kasih is fighting kidney disease and needs a kidney transplantation, but doesn't find a donor match. Dr. Frans doesn't want to lose Kasih, and finally finds Intan so she can donate her kidney to Kasih. Lastri is very angry when she learns about this and Intan discovers that Kasih is her mother who she believed was dead. Despite the shock, Intan is still willing to donate her kidney. But her wish to do so is rejected by Rado, Lastri, and Kasih.
