Because of her asthma, her adoptive mother sent her to her aunt's house in the countryside to recuperate.
An abandoned villa in the country caught Anna's attention, she ran to the villa to check, she would see the little girl behind the blue window in the villa in her dream.
During festivals in the village, everyone went to the temple to make a wish. Her wish was to be an ordinary girl, but her blue eyes still made her special. She is reluctant to accept the closeness of her friends, even with businessmen.
She came to the river, a small boat was moored on the bank, and she got on the boat and rowed towards the villa. The little girl in the villa came out to meet her. It was a blonde girl named Marnie.
They meet here every day and tell each other their stories. Marnie's family is very rich, her parents are very fashionable and often hold parties at home. Marnie seems to be a happy little girl with a childhood sweetheart boyfriend. But she also told Anna that the nanny who looked after her was not kind to her.
Anna is always wandering between such dreams and illusory scenes, not knowing which ones are real and which ones are fake.
Anna met the old grandma who was painting by the river, and the villa opposite the old grandma's painting. The grandmother told Anna that the villa was about to be renovated and a new owner moved in.
Anna came to the villa and met the little girl who was the new owner of the villa. The little girl found a diary of Marnie in the villa. She thought that Anna was the owner of the diary, Marnie, and Anna couldn't tell whether Marnie was real or just her imagination.
Anna and Marnie meet again, and Marnie tells Anna that she was terrified when the nanny and maid threw her into the barn once. They came to the barn together, and the situation changed from time to time. Sometimes Marnie and Anna are together, sometimes Marnie is with her childhood sweetheart, and sometimes Anna is alone.
The little girl in the villa found the diary at the back, ran to the barn, and found Anna who fainted near the barn in the wind and rain.
The next day, they learned of Marnie's story from the grandmother who was painting. Marnie has a wealthy family, but her parents often leave her to travel alone, and the nannies and maids often bully her. However, when she grew up, she married her childhood sweetheart and was happy, but her husband died young and she took care of her daughter alone. She sent her daughter to a boarding school, her daughter couldn't understand her, and she never forgave her as an adult. Later, the daughter left her child to Marnie to take care of, and Marnie took good care of her granddaughter until she died.
A painting she accidentally found, Anna knew that Marnie was her grandmother. This experience opened her heart. Received a new partner and accepted his adoptive mother.
