Rostov's days are now filled with moments spent with Sophia, teaching her, playing games, and simply enjoying each other's company. Initially struggling to comb Sophia's hair, Rostov gradually improves his skills with practice.

After a discussion with Rostov, the manager eventually agrees to allow Sophia to stay at the hotel for a month. However, there's a condition: after one month, Sophia must temporarily reside in a shelter until her mother arrives to take her.
However, even after one month, Nina does not return. This prolonged absence starts to raise doubts and concerns in Rostov's mind. However, as days pass without any sign of Nina, Rostov realizes he may need to decide to ensure Sophia's well-being.
