After failing to find a job in her chosen profession, she must work as a sales assistant in a perfume shop to earn enough money to pay for her sick mother's therapy. One day, Ira recognizes a customer who comes into the shop as her old school friend Alina. On learning about Ira's problems, Alina decides to help and persuades her father Sergey, owner of a large pharmaceutical company, to give Ira a job. Suddenly, an exciting new stage in Ira's life opens up: a new job and excellent career prospects. Now she can afford to pay for her mother's operation and also to move into a separate apartment with her fiancé, Anton. Any prospect of a wedding, however, is not about to happen, when Alina takes a fancy to Anton, a selfish, timorous individual who responds all too readily and betrays his fiancée. Ira is devastated by Anton's infidelity but is rescued from her depression by Sergey, who showers her with affection and support during this difficult period. Later, Sergey proposes to Ira, who is only too ready to marry him, despite still being in love with Anton.
