Chandra comes upon a golden snail whose colour fills her with wonder. She is mesmerized when this snail transforms into a beautiful princess. Her life changes after finding the snail, for the princess appears to Chandra whenever she needs help.  

Circumstances continue to improve for Chandra with the arrival of a handsome boy, Dino. Both Chandra and Dino fall in love with each other. But before they can tell each other how they feel, things go awry. Losing the snail and experiencing problems with Dino, Chandra doesn’t realize the worst is yet to come. For now Dewi, who has been envious of her sister’s relationship, is in possession of the golden snail.
