How can I help you, young children?
251Please respect copyright.PENANAqyx95APjla
ALYSSA251Please respect copyright.PENANA9BJVS1XOs4
We were just talking about shoes.
251Please respect copyright.PENANAwg9shdU6mK

251Please respect copyright.PENANA2sBjIrzRft
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]251Please respect copyright.PENANAAWTizDCM82
Showcasing is a competition!251Please respect copyright.PENANAwQBvG3qUSG
What an unrealistic daydream!
251Please respect copyright.PENANAJkGGLeJCqx
CINDER251Please respect copyright.PENANAbjHPZnYzph
(optimistic)251Please respect copyright.PENANA7Ml5GRYXJl
Absolutely not!251Please respect copyright.PENANAhAeItcRw9h
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
251Please respect copyright.PENANAiQms4SVOsx
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]251Please respect copyright.PENANASxyII1AquS
Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.251Please respect copyright.PENANAXVmih7rPpt
When did you start training?
251Please respect copyright.PENANAejHogz1ZV8
CINDER251Please respect copyright.PENANAHcvxPedN71
I am self-taught.
251Please respect copyright.PENANAjQlhq8YJ07
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]251Please respect copyright.PENANAxpuEegxkjO
See! Another disadvantage.251Please respect copyright.PENANAgrnmJ2x2rc
Give up this dream.251Please respect copyright.PENANACtRZHfzTWL
Let me tell you.251Please respect copyright.PENANADotobqssNG
Always plan realistically in life.251Please respect copyright.PENANAopmE4cwL0E
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.251Please respect copyright.PENANABxYd7GQiYA
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes251Please respect copyright.PENANAl4WVA6Uuio
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
251Please respect copyright.PENANATHdGQvSGbf
CINDER251Please respect copyright.PENANAA6y15EiEOY
And that is what differentiates us.251Please respect copyright.PENANA90FNgJfPHG
Winning has always been secondary.251Please respect copyright.PENANA99zVVh5XYE
The thing that I love is dancing,251Please respect copyright.PENANAVbBfv6aB8y
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.
251Please respect copyright.PENANANjdaEL6aRt
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]251Please respect copyright.PENANAp5fORtHNwS
(disbelieve)251Please respect copyright.PENANA9prrwPfAxP
Then what’s the point of entering a competition?251Please respect copyright.PENANAYmCjlZW6I9
You must always aim for the best.251Please respect copyright.PENANAk4XmJFOGsX
Championship should be your goal!
251Please respect copyright.PENANAdsN9NgjVD1
CINDER251Please respect copyright.PENANARtjSZsVEXo
(optimistic)251Please respect copyright.PENANAAkZE8MEdtC
I disagree!251Please respect copyright.PENANAMWuigKO6Qo
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.251Please respect copyright.PENANAE3bsJXOabe
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,251Please respect copyright.PENANA6jQXpQ4bdl
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
251Please respect copyright.PENANA9hYDWVzZhk
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]251Please respect copyright.PENANA3cVePaLrQ5
(disbelieve)251Please respect copyright.PENANAxoiAbu5Zpe
Being the best itself is happiness!251Please respect copyright.PENANAVUHmahFU1Y
Being the best brings you power and glory.
251Please respect copyright.PENANAFJYKMSvXjM
CINDER251Please respect copyright.PENANAFaWXoNcwpW
I am just a dancer,251Please respect copyright.PENANAYqUjfHVAdl
I don’t need to change the world.
251Please respect copyright.PENANAuBblGg7yKo
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] fell silent, comprehending what CINDER had said. SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] frowned and finally sighed.

SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]251Please respect copyright.PENANA3P2rCmt7Fg
(lightly laughing)251Please respect copyright.PENANAln57qYdK4E
I know what you mean.251Please respect copyright.PENANA386yeHSUpC
There is just so much in life that must be thought out thoroughly.
251Please respect copyright.PENANA5j6JpxUZFx
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] knelt down and picked up shoe, handed it to CINDER.
251Please respect copyright.PENANA5tmDs5Vt15
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] (CONT’D)251Please respect copyright.PENANAGnO8Vt5kMS

251Please respect copyright.PENANAaTQojiCV43
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]251Please respect copyright.PENANAg44KhntA6q
(profound)251Please respect copyright.PENANA5wfPmPBjxk
You’ll need this too.251Please respect copyright.PENANABLdz1trzgF
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.251Please respect copyright.PENANApirfO66eA6
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
251Please respect copyright.PENANAsQn5iuJnfM
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
251Please respect copyright.PENANAuy1QI5SRzS
ALYSSA251Please respect copyright.PENANA5hqZ3nxFMv

251Please respect copyright.PENANABwoSVTjzDU
