Shizuku #346: Join Me in Acting
Shizuku
Wow, that was a fantastic movie! What did you think of it, Dia?
Dia
I thought it was fantastic as well. The story was great, and there was a wonderful mix of serious and comedic moments. The actors' performances were also very compelling.
Dia
I didn't even notice for a while that the movie had ended. That's how enthralled I was.
Shizuku
I completely understand! We were merely bystanders in that world, but as soon as the story begins, that fact is blown away!
Shizuku
It was like I was a member of the story as well. My heart was one with the characters and I went through everything until the very end with them.
Shizuku
And when the lights came on, I was left with a bit of loneliness and the sting of saying goodbye to those girls. Those feelings lead us to the next story!
Dia
You really like stories, don't you?
Shizuku
I love them! And I love acting just as much! What about you, Dia?
Dia
What do you mean?
Shizuku
Do you enjoy acting?!
Dia
Well, no, I couldn't possibly act. I think I'm much more suited to being in the audience.
Shizuku
What are you talking about?! In the improv skit during the fashion show, you moved so confidently! You had so many cutting lines that pierced the audience's hearts!
Shizuku
At that time, I certainly saw the natural talent of a stage actor in you, Dia. You were just as dazzling and beautifully brilliant as the diamond you're named after!
Dia
I think you hallucinated that. I lost myself in that performance, and I myself hardly remember what happened.
Shizuku
Don't you just think you can't act because you don't have much experience? Have you ever been on stage? Oh, apart from school idol live shows.
Dia
Well, I suppose that is true. I really have not.
Shizuku
In that case, it's too early to decide you can't do it. You might have a latent talent for acting and you haven't realized it yet!
Shizuku
I'm sure you'll come to understand the appeal of acting if you watch more amazing actors put on amazing performances like in the movie we just saw!
Dia
Wait, is that why you invited me to see a movie today?
Shizuku
Oh, by the way, it just so happens that this movie is going to become a play! That wonderful story is going to the stage next! Dia, why don't we go see it?!
Dia
Ah, it does seem like a story that would make a lovely play, but why do I feel like I won't be able to simply enjoy it?
Shizuku
Come together with me to the world of stories and then to the world of theater!
