This is the life story of a young girl, who happens to be an army officer's daughter. Brought up in the secluded army quarters, she somehow prefers to lead a normal civilian life.

Having a first-hand experience of living both lives, she narrates the exciting events from her dual life. From the best of both lives to the worst, she gives an unbiased account of what it is to be a part of the army and yet live the life of a civilian. An interesting account of a young girl who reveals what it is to live two lives at once!
