Hiroyuki's father, who is a high-ranking official in the government, is upset that his son's suit for the entrance ceremony has been rejected by the fashion house. Hiroyuki tells his father that he has decided to become a de-signer and not a designer. He tells his son that his mother is raising four children on her own, and that he wants to be a part of her family's future. When Hiroyuki asks his father why he has rejected the offer of a job as a designer, Hiroyuki replies that he is a "coward" because he is afraid that no one will want to wear a suit made by someone who is inexperienced. He says that he would rather be a model than a fashion designer.
