  ## Characters
  
  Biserka "Biba" Fruk is the main character of the series. She lives in an apartment with her husband Martin and children Darko and Sandra. At home, she mostly cleans and cooks, sometimes watching television and resting, mainly sleeping on sofa or kissing with her husband. At work she works with her best friend Đurđa, she is only who understands she, but partially. They often talk together and visit each other. She is sarcastic to customers, sometimes she roasts them. Biba has no neighbours, except in one episode, when she was not in good relations with him. She successfully solves the problems.
  
  Đurđa Hrković is Biba's best friend and they work together in the market. Her relationship with Vlado and Milivoj is friendly, although they sometimes tell her that she is old. She lives with her mother in the apartment. Her mom is very protective because Đurđa's father wasn't good by her opinion, so she doesn't want Đurđa to experience same problem. Biba was only twice in Đurđa's house for dinner, and once at sleepover, and Đurđa was at Bibe several times. At the end, she married Goran. Her relationship with him was from very good to very low, but they still decided to marry.
  
  Milivoj Babić works in a supermarket. He is mostly in a sarcastic relationship with Biba and Đurđa, but they collaborated in an episode when they were striking and they do not have big issues. He was obsessed with women, so he meet with Tamara, who was supposed to marry Biba's brother, so Biba did not respect her. His relation with Tamara broke very fast. Đurđa sent flowers to Tamara marking herself as a Tamara's lover, what destroyed Tamara and Milivoj romance.
  
  Vlado Krunčić also works in supermarket. He once talked to her mom about the dying cat, so Biba realized that his mom was dying, and that news spread to Piškorić, Đurđa and Milivoj. Later, they gathered in the Vlado's yard and there they realized that it was not his mom but her cat. Then, Biba was shocked, also Đurđa and Milivoj because they were sure that she said mother. Several times he was reading some newspaper featuring women and football.
  
  Janko Piškorić is a supermarket manager who is spending most of his time in his office and calculates salaries and makes the order in the supermarket and plans to improve earnings (introducing a child's corner).
