Shioriko #356: Diligence Is the Only Way!
Player
Huh? What's that noise coming from the lesson room? Is somebody in there?
[Fade in/out.]
Shioriko
*Pant* *Pant*
Player
Shioriko?!
Shioriko
Oh!
[Fade in/out.]
Player
You're practicing the dance on your day off?
Shioriko
Yeah, um… I had some student council stuff to do, so I thought I could get some practice in, too.
Shioriko
But more importantly, what are YOU doing here on our day off?
Player
I forgot my practice notebook, so I came to get it. I wanted to write some stuff in it today.
Shioriko
Oh, I see.
Player
But I'm glad I came. Now I have more that I want to write about you, Shioriko.
Shioriko
Huh?
Player
Since you seemed to be having so much fun with dance practice!
Shioriko
O-Oh, that was…
Player
Things get really fun when you learn to do something you couldn't do before, right?
Shioriko
That's exactly it!
Shioriko
I still can't dance as well as everybody else, so I decided that I had to get serious about practicing in order to at least catch up.
Shioriko
And it really makes me so happy when I learn how to do even the smallest things.
Shioriko
What do you think? Do you think it's possible for me to be like…everyone else?
| Option 1: “Absolutely!” |
|---|
| Player No question! Everyone's always saying how good your moves are, so have some confidence in yourself! Shioriko Thank you very much. I want to work hard to make the most of my strengths. |
| Option 2: “You're already there.” |
| Player You're already there, Shioriko. Shioriko N-No, that would be impossible. But thank you for saying so. I can be a little more confident now. |
Player
Shioriko, what are you doing after this? If you still have student council work to do, I can help out.
Shioriko
No, I don't. I'm going to go home after a little more practice.
Player
Okay, how about going to a juice stand on your way home?
Shioriko
Huh?
Player
According to Karin, citric acid gets rid of fatigue! At the juice stand I'm thinking of, there's a really good lemon squash. I'll treat you.
Shioriko
Are juice stands any different from…vending machines?
Player
Yeah, at juice stands they make your drink for you right on the spot.
Shioriko
Oh, I see. I'm looking forward to going with you!
