Ah Chieng (Kamthorn Suwanpiyasiri) and Ah Ee (Piathi Kumwong) raise ducks and have a daughter named Ah Mui (Wassana Sitthiweth). When she was young, she was adorable. When getting into teenage, it becomes more difficult. Her friends are planning to study in Bangkok, so Mui wishes to go also. Ah Mui is upset as she has no new clothes to go to a friend’s party. Finally Ah Chieng is promising to buy clothes for her as he will borrow money first. Ah Mui really wants to go studying in Bangkok, so one of her friends promises to help through her father. Ah Mui comes back home being upset. Sor and Sulaleewan try to help. Ah Chieng is satisfied that Ah Mui will finish her secondary studies this year and will be able to help them. She cries as she doesn’t want such a low life raising ducks. Ah Mui wishes to escape poverty and to go to Bangkok, but her parents have no money. Ah Mui threatens to kill herself. Ah Chieng decides to send Ah Mui to Bangkok as there is no choice. At school, Ton (Sorapong Chatree) meets Ah Mui while picking up his sister at school. Her new name is Mun (Muntira) to hide her past. Ah Mui is living in a dorm. There is a former schoolmate living there, but Ah Mui doesn’t talk to her (คนลืมตัว). One day, Ton and her sister (Anchalee Chaisiri) invite her to their big home. They even have domestic helpers (Sithao Petcharoen). Toi (Settha Sirachaya) is Ton’s best friend. Ah Mui is lying to her friends about her origins. Toi lives in the same district as the one claimed by Ah Mui. Ah Mui starts to be upset when Toi wishes to know exactly where she is living. One evening, Ah Mui goes to a club with her friends from the dormitory. Toi is also there. As Toi keeps watching Ah Mui, he gets beaten by some male friends. On the next day, Ton questions Ah Mui as he wants to know who the young men are in order to avenge his friend Toi. Meanwhile, Ah Mui’s parents lose all their ducks due to a disease. Sor finds a job as a dishwasher for Ah Chieng. By investigating, Toi identifies that Mun / Ah Mui is the daughter of a farmer raising ducks. Toi meets Sor and gets all the details about Ah Mui’s life. He shares the details with Ton. Toi complains that Ah Mui neither visits her parents nor sends letters to them. Ton wishes to understand why Mun is acting like this. Ton wishes to visit Mun’s house. Ton doesn’t know deep inside Mun’s heart. Ton and her sister visit Mun’s parents and offer food and clothes on behalf of Mun. There is money in the back of the bag. Ah Chieng and Sor are wondering where Ah Mui gets this money. Ton asks Mun to think about what she has done wrong. Ah Chieng is sick. He keeps coughing. Ah Chieng and Sor go to Bangkok to meet Ah Mui. They meet her, but she is ashamed that they visit her. She asks them to leave as soon as possible and asks for more money as everything is expensive in Bangkok. Ah Chieng gives her the money that Ton gave previously to him. Back home, he lies to his wife. He is getting very sick and splits blood while coughing. Ton is upset to see Mun inviting her friends to eat with the money given by her parents. Ah Chieng refuses to rest and gets faint. He refuses to see a doctor to save money. Ton warns Mun, but she refuses to listen to his wise sentences. Her mother arrives at the dorm to ask Ah Mui to visit her father, but she refuses to meet her mother and chases her mother. Ton’s sister is shocked (เสียใจเหลือเกิน). Mun is upset that nobody understands her. Ah Chieng dies during the night, while Mun is partying in a disco. Mun is running out of money. She is chased from the dorm. Similar to Icare, she burnt her wings by going too close to the sun (here the high society). A village friend gives her money to go back home. Back home, she meets Sor blaming her to be less than a dog as she doesn’t respect and have gratitude over her parents. Ah Mui learns that Ah Chieng is dead. Ah Mui asks for forgiveness from her mother (ใจบุญ). Ton forgives Ah Mui as he can see Ah Mui’s love towards his mother. Ah Mui and her mother go to live in Ton’s home.
