Please help us out! Let's all build the School Idol Festival together!

It's going to be really exciting and something to remember forever. Let's all have fun and make it a blast!

Ayumu!

Huh?!

*Huff* *Puff* I couldn't sit still when I saw your live stream.

Um… Wh-What are you…

Wait, let me go first!

Huh?

I'm sorry! I was wrong!

I was the one who said we should all work together and have fun creating the School Idol Festival, yet my goal somehow ended up being just to pull the event off.

I completely ignored how you and everyone else felt. What was the point if I couldn't see that?

It was you who noticed that I had lost sight of everything around me, and you were just trying to tell me, but I said such horrible things to you when we had that argument…

A-And also, I saw the present you gave me. I could tell how much thought you put into it for me, and I was really touched.

Then I was filled with regret. I hurt you when you were just concerned about me. My heart hurt thinking about what if we couldn't manage to reconcile, and I've been so upset.

I'm so, so sorry! I might not be in a position to say this, but I'm useless without you, Ayumu. I don't have any fun without you around.

So I want to go back to how things were with you! Please! Can we?

W-Wait! I said a bunch of horrible things as well!

No, you didn't…

I did. I knew you were working hard for us, yet I put my own feelings first and made some selfish demands.

Not only that, but I skipped practice, did nothing to help, and took it easy all on my own, while everyone was having a hard time. For that, I'm really, really sorry!

I only realized how important you are to me and how completely absorbed I'd gotten by school idols after spending time away by myself!

I want to continue being a school idol with everyone again. I want to patch things up with you and work hard together again. And I want the School Idol Festival to go ahead!

So please, let's be friends again!

What? Of course! Make sure you knock me down a couple of pegs when I lose sight of everything around me again.

I will, as long as you make sure you continue to watch over me.

Ayumu… Thanks. We're in this together.

And thank you for always being by my side, for supporting me, and for inviting me to become a school idol!

*Chuckle*

*Giggle*

Ooh, we happened to assemble here in time for Ayumu and Prez's public display of affection!

This is being streamed all around the world, you know?

We're school idols, so we can't show everyone what goes on behind the curtains.

Wh-What are you all doing here?!

Everyone wanted to come see you once they saw your live stream. Right?

Yeah! I'm so glad you're back.

Just like how something was missing without our president around, things just didn't feel the same without you, Ayumu.

I'm so…so glad… *Sob*

Whoa, are you crying, Shizuko?!

A-As if… W-Wahhh!

C-C'mon, you're gonna make me cry too… *Sniff* Aww, Ayumu!

Everyone, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! Thank you for saving a place for me to come back to!

We wouldn't have it any other way. We're all friends with the same dream, after all… *Sob*

Come on, the whole world is watching you all cry right now!

How many people are watching right now?

A huge amount. Rina-chan Board says, “Overwhelmed!”

So many people have been listening to Ayumu pour her heart out…

Have a look at the comments. Everyone's being so encouraging.

*Chuckle* Considering all the support we're getting, I suppose we've got to give it our best shot.

Yeah. Let's… Let's give it another shot and make sure the School Idol Festival goes ahead!

Make sure you let us help out this time, too.

Of course! I know I can't do anything all on my own now. Let's all work together!

Yeah!

Ack! I-I forgot we were still streaming!

U-Um… To everyone watching this live stream, I'm sorry things got a little chaotic during it.

All of the other club members are here, and I've also managed to patch things up with the club president. Thank you, everyone, for all of these comments!

We will make sure the School Idol Festival is a fun-filled event! I hope you will all join us together in the excitement!

I'll now finish things off by pouring all of my current emotions into a song. This song is my very important to me, since this where it all began for me. Yume e no Ippo.
