For this sequel to the unexpectedly successful Ratapan Anak Tiri (Lament of a Stepchild), Susy is bullied by her stepmother, who is her father’s third wife. However, her stepsister Umi, who is the biological daughter of her stepmother, always defends her. Reno, her schoolmate, loves Susy but it is not mutual. On one occasion when he eats at her place and makes the floor dirty, Susy is thrown out of the house, when her stepmother slips, knocks her head and is unconscious. Umi joins Susy and they stay over at a friend’s house. Umi misses her father, so both girls separate. The stepmother, who is looking for Umi, comes across Susy on the streets and verbally abuses her. Susy now dares to fight back and challenges her.
