Cici asks Xenia for money to buy a gown for her school's Coming-of-Age Ceremony but learns their family is actually poor and her father’s company is in deficit. Without funds, Xenia offers Cici her brother’s old clothes. At the ceremony, Cici shows up wearing a baggy men's shirt, standing out as the only one not in a gown. Her unusual appearance draws judgment, and when Cici refuses to apologize for embarrassing her siblings, Xenia declares she is no longer part of the family, leaving their relationship fractured and unresolved.
