*Sigh*

Kanan…

*Gasp*

I'd like to apologize for just now… Actually, no. For yesterday as well. I believe I was, um…selfish.

Hanamaru and I even thought of ways to make faster progress, since we knew that falling behind on preparations might bug you. Do you really not have any faith in us?

That's not it at all! It's all my fault. It was because I thought I had to do something about it by myself!

However, it ended up all being for my own benefit. I was just so desperate to get rid of my guilt.

You were right, Kanan. I took it upon myself to do everything. I said it was for AZALEA, but not once did I ever act as a member of AZALEA.

You and Mari have always told me to not rush in headfirst on my own, but it's as if I haven't grown from that at all. This time I've also been horrible to you and Hanamaru…

I haven't grown either.

I exploded with anger and burst out of the room without talking it out properly, even though you and Mari have warned me about my temper before.

You said you didn't act as a member of AZALEA, but that's not true. You wouldn't be able to write lyrics like these if you didn't have AZALEA in mind.

I think they're great lyrics. I love them.

A-Are these the lyrics that I wrote?

I'm sorry for saying horrible things too, Dia. Will you join Hanamaru and me on stage as AZALEA?

Goodness! I should be the one asking you two to allow me to sing with you!

[Fade in/out.]

Oh! They're back!

Sorry for making you worry. And thanks for sending me a photo of the lyrics, Hanamaru.

I figured those lyrics would bring you two together again. I'm so glad that you two came back together, zura.

I'm so very sorry. Let's rewrite these lyrics together and create a song that is truly worthy of AZALEA this time.

I think we should just go with the lyrics that you wrote, Dia.

I wanna sing them too, zura! They're such wonderful lyrics that I want lots of people to hear them, zura.

What? But…they are…

I already told you that I love them. No matter what the circumstances were, you still wrote them for AZALEA.

Kanan, Hanamaru… Thank you very much.

*Chuckle* It looks like everything's been worked out.

I'm all hungry now that I'm relieved, zura. I brought some snacks! We'll make good progress if we nibble on these while we work today, zura!

How unbecoming to snack and work! We shall eat them during our breaks, or after we've finished all of our work.

Oh, stop being such a wet blanket. I'm a bit peckish after raising my voice too. I won't have any strength left for practice like this.

If we're allowed to eat them once we're done, does that also mean we can eat them before we start?

Well… As long as it's not during our work, then I suppose so.

Then let's eat them before we get started! Come on, Dia! You pick a snack too! They all look so yummy!

Good grief. You really do leave me with no choice. I shall indulge a little then.
