"Salamat was a victim of circumstance and was traumatized as a result of her past. She was willing to give life a chance but something seems to be missing.

The past came tumbling before her when she was already healing and could barely remember the pain. She became stigmatized and couldn't help but give in to despair.

Will she be able to overcome these troubles someday? Or will it affect her mental state and disrupt her matrimonial prospect? Will Habib's betrayal break her or make her stronger?"

THE STIGMA

　　"Raliat", Mr. Usman called, entering his daughter's bedroom. He was a business mogul and was rarely at home. Sundays were his only free day, even though he schedules most of his traveling on Sundays.


　　"Yes, daddy", Raliat responded. She was laying on her bed reading a novel titled "UNREQUITED FATE".


　　"Raliat", he called again with a grim countenance. Raliat was surprised to see his annoyed face. She shuddered and quickly sat upright.


　　"What is this thing I am hearing about your so-called boyfriend?" He inquired pointing to the direction of the sitting room.


　　Raliat looked towards the direction he was pointing at, and with a confusing look, she stammered out of fear. "I...d..do..don't know what you mean, daddy."


　　He saw the fear in her and tried calming himself. Then, he asked calmly, "When is he coming?"


　　Raliat looked up at the wall clock. "He should be here any moment from now."


　　"What's his name?" He asked again as he moved towards her big bed.
