Come on... What's taking her so long?

Come on Kanata, the crowd is waiting for you. We want to make Nijigasaki look good in front of μ's and Aqours' fans, don't we?

KANATA: *Yawn* ...Reporting for duty."

AKI: "About time. Come on Kanata you're five minutes late!"

KANATA: "I just had Umi lecture me for sleeping on the stairwell. I don't want you to do that too."

AKI: "Then get some energy going and get out there."

KANATA: *Yawn*

AKI: "Oh for the love of... Remember, Haruka's out there."

KANATA: "She is?"

AKI: "Yes and she's waiting for her sister to make her proud. You don't want to disappoint her, do you?"

KANATA: "Disappoint Haruka? I could never forgive myself. I'm on it, I'm going out there!"

Wow, record time. Maybe I should invite Haruka to all the future live shows Kanata performs at.

...

...

KANATA: "Ahh, the table feels so nice and cold."

AKI: "Here, I bought some orange juice for you."

KANATA: "Thank you. I'm so thirsty, so this'll really hit the spot."

AKI: "You really sang your lungs out, out there."

KANATA: *Chuckle* "Everyone was cheering me on with so much might, so I put in all of my energy to respond to them."

AKI: "Yeah, it was incredible. The stage and audience became one. It was an awesome song filled with excitement."

KANATA: "Ahh, I'm so happy everyone accepts me and my selfish ways, and even cheers for me. It really is wonderful being a school idol."

AKI: "Did you get some vigor from everyone?"

KANATA: "Of course! So much that I'm overflowing with it. I feel like I can put in even more effort starting tomorrow."

AKI: "I'm sure everyone who's come to see you feels the same way. With all the vigor you've given them, I bet they're ready to take tomorrow head-on."

KANATA: "I sure hope so. But I'm exhausted from all of the energy I spent today. My mind is still full of enthusiasm, but my body just won't listen." *Flop*

AKI: "Get some good rest today."

KANATA: "Ahhh, I'm exhausted, but I feel amazing. I bet I'm the happiest person in the world right now."

AKI: "I'm also happy I got to witness your performance. Thanks for the wonderful time."

KANATA: "I should be thanking you for bearing with my selfish ways."

AKI: "I do this because I enjoy it, so no need for thanks."

KANATA: "That just won't do. You know what they say? Good manners even between friends, right? So, thank you."

AKI: "Not at all. You're very welcome."

KANATA: "Oh, I just got a text from Haruka."

AKI: "She must have enjoyed the show. What did she say?"

-------------------------------------------

HARUKA: 'The live show is so much fun, especially your performance sis! My throat's hoarse now from all of my excitement. You really are super amazing and cool!'

-------------------------------------------

AKI: "That's good to hear."

KANATA: "Yup! Im glad I gave it my all! It really was so incredibly good!"

AKI: *Laugh* "I think that's the best cheer you've got today."

KANATA: "Oh, here's the rest of it... Um..."

-------------------------------------------

HARUKA: 'You should live more for yourself, just like you did today. It would make me happier to see you that way, too.'

-------------------------------------------

KANATA: "Aww, my Haruka's growing up! She's gonna make me cry!"

AKI: "It's okay for you to cry, there's only two of us here. The others are either preparing or partying."

KANATA: *Wail* "I'm so happy. I'm gonna save this message forever and never delete it!"

AKI: "It looks like you two have gone back to being tight sisters again.
Actually, maybe you're closer now more than ever."

KANATA: "I think so. We're able to tell each other how we truly feel now. She even asked me to make her boxed lunches again."

AKI: "Lucky... Hm? Oh! Looks like Haruka sent me a message, too!
Let me see..."

-------------------------------------------

HARUKA: 'Sir, I know you're probably busy with the show right now and all. But I wanted to say thank you.
I got to see my sister at her absolute coolest. Thank you so much.
Even Kanata said that she couldn't have done it without your support. You really are an amazing manager. Please keep your door open again for the next time I seek your advice.'

-------------------------------------------

KANATA: "What?"

AKI: "Huh? What's wrong?"

KANATA: "Hmm... Hmmmmmph... I want Haruka's wishes to be granted, but this won't do!"

AKI: "Hm?"

KANATA: "Your support is vital to me! So, could you please keep supporting me forever and ever?"

AKI: *Laugh* "Don't worry, I'll always support you. It's my job to grant all of your selfish wishes and desires, after all."

KANATA: "That's a relief. Say... Where did all the nice costumes go?"

AKI: "Excuse me?"

KANATA: "Over there, there were all these costumes and clothes on display.
I don't know who needs that many clothes..."

AKI: "You'll be surprised. I know exactly who needs that many."
