# Haura The story follows Haura (Janna Nick), a factory worker with a rough character, but whose life is often controlled by her mother. Haura's romance with her chosen sweetheart, Naim (Hafidz Roshdi), is blocked by her mother, Mak Limah (Azizah Mahzan), because Mak Limah only wants to marry off her daughter to a wealthy man for the family's comfort. Naim is merely a peon, someone whom Mak Limah looks down upon. It is not only Haura, but her sister Faida (Puteri Sarah Liyana) is also matched by Mak Limah to marry Azzam, a wealthy man for the same reason. Faida, being a good daughter, obeys her mother's wishes. However, Mak Limah is disappointed when, after the marriage, she discovers that Azzam, despite being wealthy, is also a miser. Naim, aware that Mak Limah is unwilling to accept him, does not give up easily and tries to win over Haura's family. Haura, who often gets into trouble at work, begins to catch the attention of her Manager, Ziyyad (Andi Bernadee).
