At the age of nineteen, Olga’s mother gave birth to a daughter by a frivolous young man who soon disappeared from their lives. When the girl turned two, her mother set off in search of personal happiness, leaving the child in her grandmother’s care. It was her grandmother who became the closest and dearest person in Olga’s life, replacing both her mother and father. From childhood, Olga dreamed of becoming a surgeon and persistently pursued her dream. Her determination and hard work eventually bore fruit—she fulfilled her cherished wish and became a doctor. Fate brought her together with Valentin, whom she married. However, their family happiness proved short-lived. A tragedy Olga endured in her youth deprived her of the ability to have children, and her husband’s betrayal—he cheated on her with her best friend—was the final straw: the marriage fell apart. At work, Olga gradually grew closer to a young resident doctor named Ilya, who was ten years her junior. Despite the age difference, sincere feelings flared up between them, marking the beginning of a new romance.
