Sarah was a single mom and had a daughter. Her daughter was her life to stand and fight. She was a doctor and so she didn't have any financial crisis. But when her daughter was 16, she was having a boyfriend.

Sarah didn't have any problem with him because she knew how life sucks to be alone. And so she wanted her daughter to live with his lover. But soon Mary was pregnant at her age of 16. She was a premature girl then and didn't know what to do.

She rushed to her boyfriend crying. When he got to know everything, the true lover showed his true face. He became angry with Mary and dumped her soon. Mary was shocked at this because she was sure her boyfriend was going to propose her and accept to be the father.

She became so depressed at two shocking news. Her life was devastated when she remembered his words "I don't need your baby.". Mary loved her daughter at first but because of her boyfriend leaving, she started to hate it. Her mom was always by her side and took care of her.

One day she told Sarah that she wanted to get an abortion. But Sarah didn't wanted her to do it. She talked with her daughter out of it. She convinced her daughter not to do an abortion because it meaning to kill the baby.

One day Sarah went out keeping Mary alone in the home. When she returned home, there was no one there. She got a note from which she learnt that Mary had gone for the abortion. She was so afraid of losing a life.

Sarah didn't thought too much. She rushed to the hospital and searched for her daughter. When she saw her, it was the last moment. Mary was in a cabin and was waiting for the abortion process. This time her mother rushed to her and she drag her out of there.

When Mary was out of the abortion room, she became mad and started crying. She told her mom that she didn't want that baby. Sarah told her that if she had not changed her mind, they would give the baby up for adoption and thus a life would be saved. She finally was able to convince her.

But the pregnancy was not smooth at all. It was one of the toughest one. Marry could not walk and so she had to take help of a wheel chair. But she always got support from her mom. One day they were walking and then was taking a rest. That time Marry said that she could have ended it and moved on. She blamed her mom that she had made her go through with that situation and cried. Her mom said nothing and remained silent.

And on her 17th birthday, Mary had a baby girl. It was very sweet like her mom. Mary was also happy because finally she was free. Several days passed and Mary tried to spend time with that little.

One day, her mother thought that they needed to put the baby on adoption. She was taking the girl away and that time Mary came to her. She said that she couldn't give her baby away anymore. She said that she guessed college was off the table. Then they gave up the decision of adoption. Sarah went to continue her job and Mary was enough to take care of her baby.

Years passed and Mary's baby grown up. And when the baby was old enough, she started looking for a job. But it was not easier for her. No one would hire her without education or experience. And finally she became a waitress. She brought food for people in a restaurant.

Mary was not happy in this position. One day her mom with her baby went to that restaurant and Mary served her food. She got angry and said to her mom that she would carry that tray for the rest of her days. She also said that she could have everything, but then she had nothing and she also refused to thank her mom.

Her mom was shocked too not because her daughter was ungrateful, her daughter's misery led her to be so. Sarah really hoped everything would work out somehow because otherwise, she would be the one who ruined her daughter's life. Thanked to Almighty, she had listened to her.

Finally Mary got her lucky break. She got her love in her life. A grown up, reliable man appeared for her. Mary was on cloud nine and her mom had a sigh of relief.

Soon the man got closed to her and proposed. Mary was going to get married! Mary's family had no bound of joy because her fiance knew about her baby. But when Mary invited him for a dinner in her house, he made one strict condition. He said that he would marry her but he didn't want her daughter.

Mary and her mom became shocked and the little baby was about to cry. But the heartless young man told Mary to give her daughter to her mom. Her mom was angry with that guy but didn't say anything as she thought Mary should take the decision. Mary was so sad at this and the man consoled her saying that they would have their own kids.

After this 20 years had passed. That day Sarah's daughter, Marry opened her own firm. Sarah's eyes were filled with water and couldn't be prouder of her. Mary said in her inauguration speech that she was grateful to her daughter because she was her inspiration. She also thanked her dearest mom because she wouldn't have achieved anything without her wisdom and support.

And what happened 20 years before? Did Mary accept the man's proposal and leave her daughter with her mom?

When the man said that heartless words, Mary couldn't hold back her anger. She became furious and threw away the ring. She told him to get out and take his proposal with him. She said that if he loved her, he would love her child too. Her mom became so happy that day because she saw her daughter standing again.

And from then Sarah was used to being her daughter's scapegoat. But that decision she made for herself. Sarah always saw Mary to take care of her little daughter and found love and happiness in her eyes.

Though luck had turned Mary to be a single mom unlike her mom, she hardly thought about it. She told her mom that she would be better off single as her mom also had managed somehow, she could do so.

And then Mary again started school, got her degree and found a great job. The child didn't hold her back. On the contrary, she became her mom's motivation. Sarah was so glad that she pushed Mary so hard back then. They had faced so many hardships too. But nothing matters more to a mom than her daughter's happiness.
