The girls go to the capital where they rent an apartment. Rosina is a good dressmaker and they decide to open a dressmaker's shop in their apartment. They successfully find the customers and they make a lot of friends. Don Marcelo is a mature gentleman that once used to be the head of an important magazine. His ambitious wife takes his money from him, leaving him in poverty. Rosina makes friends with Fabian, a taxi driver and he falls in love with her. Fabian asks an advice from Don Marcelo how to court her because she is very romantic. Don Marcelo becomes a modern "Cyrano" and he writes for Fabian a set of beautiful, lovely letters to Rosina.
