They have two daughters and are living happy lives, but they become difficult when their younger daughter is diagnosed with heart disease and they don't have enough money to pay 6,000,000 rupees for her treatment. In this condition, Imaan is forced to join a job of Maya (Maha Warsi), his first love. Maya asks Imaan for his hand in marriage and he accepts on the condition that she will pay for his younger daughter, Hania's treatment. His life changes as he has two wives and is left in a tiff as he has to care for both. His wife eventually finds out of his betrayal and stops talking to him. He tries his best to explain but she is not ready to listen.[4] Meanwhile, their younger daughter dies in a stress of revising her father who swore he would return home but due to a meeting, he was unable to. During her funeral, Maya and Imaan go to the house to see Hania. Waafa, in a rage of anger yells at them that Hania's death was all caused by Imaan.
