Ayumu Ep. 6: Watch Over Me
Ayumu is worried about her solo event. She wants to convey to everyone that although she has a long way to go, she hopes everyone will watch over her as she grows.
Ayumu
Hey, there's something I wanted to ask you about. Are you free?
Player
What's up, Ayumu?
Ayumu
I wanted to talk about this upcoming solo event. I got the lowest score last time, so I want to come up with something more fun for everyone.
Ayumu
I have a basic idea of what kind of event I want, but nothing solid. That's why I wanted to talk to you.
Ayumu
I was really happy that you supported me after I got the lowest score. It made me think that maybe there was more I could do, too.
Ayumu
So I wanna work harder than ever for this solo event!
Player
I feel like you're already working hard enough for this, but you've always been a lot more positive than me.
Player
Can you tell me what kind of event you want it to be, then?
Ayumu
Well… I don't think I'm much of a school idol just yet.
Ayumu
But I practice hard every day, so I want everyone to notice how I improve each time I go up on stage.
Ayumu
I might only be able to get better one step at a time, but you said it best. I'll be better today than I was yesterday, and better tomorrow than I was today.
Ayumu
So I was hoping to ask everyone to cheer me on in my endeavors…
Player
That's so like you!
Ayumu
Huh?
Player
You've never been the type to give up easily. It's seriously amazing. Let's show everyone exactly how you feel!
Player
The real question is how to go about it. Hmm… You want everyone to watch you grow and learn, right?
Ayumu
Yeah, exactly! So, how do we do that?
Player
Watching you grow, huh… Oh, I've got it! What if we grew flowers together? We could pass out seeds to everyone who comes to see you!
Ayumu
Like, to ask everyone to watch me grow like they would a flower?
Player
Yeah! What do you think?
Ayumu
That sounds wonderful! I love it! So, what kind of flowers should we pass out? Tulips? Sunflowers? Or what about roses?
Player
Hmm, I'd say daisies are the most like you.
Ayumu
Daisies?
Player
In the language of flowers, they stand for hope, constant progress, and positivity. Sounds just like you, doesn't it?
Ayumu
Is that how you see me?
| Option 1: “Your eyes are always shining with hope.” |
|---|
| Player Totally! Your eyes are always shining with hope, and it makes me feel like the future will be bright no matter how we get there. Ayumu Th-That's a bit much. I'm surprised you'd think those words would suit me. |
| Option 2: “It's your positive attitude that keeps you going.” |
| Player Totally! It's your unwavering positive attitude that keeps you going, isn't it? Player I remember when we were little and you couldn't do a reverse bar somersault. You cried like crazy, but you finally did it after practicing every day after school. Ayumu Oh geez, I-I wish you wouldn't! |
Player
*Laugh* It's nothing to be embarrassed about! It's just an example of how much of a hard worker you are. That's why I think daisies fit you so well.
Ayumu
Well, if you think so, then daisies it is!
Ayumu
We'll all plant them together, and by the time they've bloomed, I'll be an even better school idol than ever before!
Player
Sweet! Then let's start getting them ready!
[Fade in/out.]
Ayumu
Thank you for coming to see me, everyone!
Ayumu
I have something I want to do with all of you today. It's a request from me to you.
Ayumu
But before we get to that, please listen to my song!
