It transitions to show her WhatsApp feed with her dad, dating back from March 1st, when she called him before 7 pm and he did not answer.

On April 3rd, she asked him to help out with other things needed for her graduation, politely asking him to please notify her if he wouldn't be able to. He ignored her after that for many days. After he ignored her R150 assistance request, she poured out her heart, writing an emotional message informing him that she was officially cutting ties with him, as he had never shown interest in being her father, in any way possible.
