Hear the Sound of My Soul! Ep. 5

Honoka

Aaand there. Phew.

Dia

That should be all of the instruments transported.

Eli

Seeing them all lined up like this really makes it sink in that tomorrow is finally the big day.

Mari

Let's set things up for a rehearsal after we have a quick break.

Kanata

We'll have the whole stage lit up for the first song. Then, for the second, we'll have the spotlight on the individual members.

Karin

Thanks, that would be great.

Kanata

I've got it all covered! I'm gonna go set up the lights now.

Kanata

Ah, the cord isn't long enough.

Karin

I'll go get an extension cord. Hold on a moment.

[Fade in/out.]

Honoka

Right, that's the instruments all set up.

Eli

Huh, so this is what a drum set is like up close…

Dia

It seems someone is brimming with interest in drums.

Eli

I actually started getting interested in drums ever since we went to that rock venue. I loved how punchy and intense they were.

Mari

I know, right? That intensity is one of the best things about it.

Kanata

Hey, Eli. One of the Music Club girls said you could have a little play on the drums as thanks for helping out.

Eli

Nice! I'd love to do a little drumming. Don't mind if I do, then!

Eli

Right. So, you hold the sticks like this. Grip them this way, don't hold them too tight, then…

Eli

You drum out a basic rhythm like…this. Got it.

Eli

Okay. I'm all ready. Here I go…

Mari

Wow! You're amazing, Eli! You've already got the hang of it!

Dia

Perhaps the sense of rhythm she developed from dancing carried over? Either way, she's very good.

Eli

Phew, that was fun.

Kanata

Eli, that was so cool!

Eli

Thanks, though I can't imagine how I'd play multiple songs in a row. I only did a little bit of drumming, and my arms are already spent.

Eli

Dance is difficult but in a different way. I admire drummers for being able to play so many songs with complex rhythms.

Mari

*Giggle* I'd love to see drummer Eli again. Now, how about we have some lunch before the afternoon rehearsal?

Dia

That's a good idea. However, I haven't seen Karin for a little while now.

Kanata

She went to get an extension cord, but I'm not sure why it's taking her so long to come back.

Honoka

She might've gotten lost! I'll go have a quick look for her!

Eli

Ah! Wait up, Honoka!
