Хатидже, в свою очередь, очень эксцентричная девушка, готовая пойти напролом ради поставленной цели, однако на большие достижения пока не замахивается. У Ханифе огромная тяга к творчеству. Оно обожает писать стихи и работать над собой, а вот Хатидже больше увлечена музыкой, пытаясь совершенствоваться в вокале. Ее голос настолько прекрасен и мелодичен, что люди, слушающие главную героиню, забывают обо всем вокруг. Казалось бы, обыденная рутинная жизнь главных героинь так и продолжалась бы, если бы в их поселок не приехал сын одного из управленцев района.
