AYUMU: "Er, so...why are you making the call in my room? On speakerphone, no less?"

AKI: "W-Well, I'd be too nervous to do it alone! And having you by my side makes me feel a lot better!"

AYUMU: "You want me by your side? U-Uh, sure. I don't know if I can actually help, but I'll do my best!"

AKI: "Still, it's been a while since the last time I was last in here. I see Sasuke all coiled in the corner, and your blue toy giraffe is still in one piece."

AYUMU: *Giggle* "It's all thanks to you. You're the one who refused Kuroda's order to break my toy. You were my hero!"

AKI: "I'm no hero, instead they tried to break me. But it was worth taking the punishment rather than you having to."

AYUMU: "You were pretty apprehensive at first about becoming friends with me, you even told me to go away. That we couldn't be friends since I'm a girl and you're a boy. But, overtime you warmed up to me."

AKI: "Of course I did, we were the only friends we had. We were inseparable in kindergarten."

AYUMU: "You've always been there for me, Aki. You know, seeing you having fun at the party reminded me of something from long ago."

AKI: "It did? What did it remind you of?"

AYUMU: "Don't you remember? It was when we danced at the play party in Kindergarten."

AKI: "Huh? Um..."

AYUMU: "Aah, looks like you've forgot. You know, when our whole class participated? We were behind the curtains and I was crying because I was too nervous. You were there to comfort me."

AKI: "Was I?"

AYUMU: "Come on, you said something like 'It'll be okay, since we're together. Let's just have as much fun as we can!'
Just like then, at the party you looked like you were really enjoying yourself."

AKI: "I'm trying to picture that, but I can't remember."

AYUMU: "Gosh, you're awful. Even though it's one of my most important memories."

AKI: "Wait, wasn't that the party where I almost kept falling over my feet?"

AYUMU: "Looks like you remembered! *Giggle* Still... When I saw you smile, it felt like everything was going to be all right. And that if you were with me, we could surely do anything."

AKI: "Ayu..."

AYUMU: "Oh, sorry for bringing up something weird. We've got an important phone call to make!"

AKI: "R-Right! I'm g-going to call them now."

SIFPC HEAD: "Hello, you've reached the School Idol Festival Committee general information line."

AKI: "H-Hey! I'm calling on behalf of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, and I'd like to ask about why the event was canceled."

SIFPC HEAD: "Hey, you're the group that released that P.V! It was great!"

AKI: "I'm glad you liked our P.V but can I please speak to the person in charge?"

SIFPC HEAD: "Nijigasaki High School? Oh, you were also the girls who were supposed to sing on the main stage. You don't sound like a girl, though."

AKI: "It's because I'm not... I'm their manager."

SIFPC HEAD: "Oh, sorry, I didn't realize. I'm a manager myself, I'm the head of the Festival Committee."

AYUMU & AKI: "Huh?!"
