SOLO LIVE 7 - DIA KUROSAWA:


AKI: "Welp, you better go catch up to your sister."



ELI: "Yes, that's for the best. Thank you again, Akihiko."


AKI: "No problem."



DIA: "An elegant and powerful performance as always Eli. I'm impressed."



ELI: *Chuckle* "Thank you, Dia. I know that your performance will be as elegant too. I've always had my eye on you."


DIA: "You have...?!"


ELI: "As a fellow Student Council President and as a fellow school idol. Your movements have always been so graceful on stage. I wish you luck out there."



DIA: "Th-Thank you!"


AKI: "Hm?"



DIA: "Eli...THE ELI AYASE said she's always had her eyes on me!"


AKI: "Dia?"



DIA: "I've always admired her but I never knew that she admires me..."


AKI: "Dia."



DIA: "Eli-sama I won't let you down!"


AKI: "DIA!!!"



DIA: "Oh? *Ahem* I'm ready."


AKI: *Laugh*



DIA: "What is so funny?"


AKI: "Nothing. It's just that I'm so used to seeing your serious side. I totally forgot that there was a giddy idol fangirl beneath the mask."



DIA: "Th-That's wrong! It's only natural to admire Eli for her contributions to the school idol world."


AKI: "Don't worry about holding your excitement back, Dia. We're both huge idol fans here."


DIA: "I'm not holding anything back, just like I won't when I step onto that stage!"


AKI: "I cannot wait to see it."


...



...


As I expected, Dia had the elegance of an empress!


I knew that she would have no problem practicing and creating a solo performance. Although she is pretty busy a lot of the time, with Student Council work and not to forget all the other traditional activities her family make her do.


KASUMI: "She has the skills to be an instructor of tea ceremonies and flower arrangement."


Huh... Kinda reminds me of Sh-



DIA: "Did you like my performance, Akihiko? I told you I wasn't going to hold back."


AKI: "It was amazing! You looked so cool and elegant!"



DIA: *Chuckle* "That sounds like a success."


AKI: "...Dia?"


DIA: "Yes?"


AKI: "Isn't it tough being a school idol, the Student Council President, and learning flower arrangement and how to play the koto all at once?"



DIA: "Tough, you ask?"


AKI: "Yeah. I thought it was hard just being a school idol while trying to keep up with studies.
When you go to school, you're doing school stuff most of the day. Then you have tests and homework, so you need to study after school.
To use the time you have left to write music and make clothes and learn dancing...just seems really hard.
Then on top of that you have student council and other lessons. You're a senior member of Aqours, so you have to take care of the younger members, too."



DIA: "Are you saying you're worried about me? If so, then you have my thanks."


AKI: "Worried about you? Um, yeah sure..."


Am I getting worried about her?



DIA: "However, it is not necessary. It is hectic at times, but that's what I want.
Just because it is hard does not mean I'm going to run from it. Besides, working hard is better than lazing about for me."


I guess as a third-year student, Dia is used to the pressure of something like that. But if a first-year student were to experience the same kind of pressure...


*Sigh* Why am I getting worked up over something so insignificant?


AKI: "If that's how you feel, I have nothing to say. Just don't overdo it, okay?"



DIA: "Yes, I know. Knowing your limits is an important skill to have in life."


AKI: "You really are mature, Dia."



DIA: "Of course I am."


AKI: "Dia, will you play your koto for me sometime? I only got to hear a little bit that day."



DIA: "Why of course. Just don't sneak around like a ghost and surprise me again. You and Ruby really startled me that day."


AKI: *Gulp* "Okay..."



DIA: *Giggle*
