Kohane

Listen

Thank you for lending me so much of your time talking with me like this, MEIKO.
2

MEIKO

Listen

You're welcome.
Come back anytime.
3

MEIKO

I'm glad she was able to figure out what her next step needs to be.
4

MEIKO

(But it still won't solve her problem.)
5

MEIKO

Listen

(She has An, Akito and Toya, so I think she'll be fine but...)

Len

Listen

Heya!
7

Rin

Listen

We're here...!
Hm? What?!
8

Rin

Is it just you here, MEIKO?
Where's everyone else?!
9

MEIKO

You mean Kohane and the others?
They just left a second ago.
10

Len

Nooo! We just sensed that they were here and came running over!
11

Rin

Listen

*Sigh*
I was looking forward to talking and doing stuff with them...
12

MEIKO

Listen

I'm sorry, you two.
13

MEIKO

But our little chat sort of turned into me giving Kohane and An advice about something, so I'm not sure they would've been in the mood to play...
14

Len

Listen

Hm? It was just Kohane and An here?
15

MEIKO

Listen

Yes, that's right.
16

Rin

What were you giving them advice about, MEIKO?
17

MEIKO

Hmm... I probably shouldn't tell you behind their backs...
18

MEIKO

Listen

Details aside, they were concerned about having confidence in themselves.
19

Rin

Listen

Having confidence in themselves?
20

MEIKO

Yes. Kohane in particular seems to have never experienced that feeling of pride or confidence...
21

Len

What?! Not even once?!
22

Rin

So what happened after they told you? Did they figure out what to do?
23

MEIKO

Listen

No, not quite. I just gave them some words to think on.
24

Rin

Listen

But that's it?
25

MEIKO

Yes.
I mean, how someone feels confident about themselves varies wildly from person to person.
26

MEIKO

Listen

But I'm sure An, Akito and Toya will help figure out the rest.
27

Len

Listen

Okay...
28

MEIKO

And look at you two. Could it be that you wanted to talk to them about this too?
29

Len

Yeah, that and...
30

Len

Listen

It's just... That's sort of all we're able to do for them, you know?
31

Rin

I know, right...?
We're always trying so hard to help make their dreams come true.
32

MEIKO

Listen

Oh? What if I told you that just listening to what someone has to say can make them feel much better?
33

Rin

Listen

That's true, but we still end up wanting to do something for them...
34

Len

Yeah.
35

Len

Listen

You and Miku are adults, so it's easy for you to watch over everyone. But for us, it's really hard.
36

MEIKO

Are you sure? I feel like you've done quite a bit for them already...
37

MEIKO

Listen

Don't forget that these are also just my own personal beliefs, so you don't need to feel compelled to do exactly what I do. Understand?
38

Rin & Len

Huh?
39

MEIKO

I believe in what I believe in. You two believe in what you believe in. That's completely normal, right?
40

MEIKO

Listen

That's why it's also natural for you two to act and think differently.
41

Len

Listen

So it's okay for us to try and help them more?
42

MEIKO

Yes, of course.
43

MEIKO

Listen

(For them to make their dream come true, I'm sure they'll have to face many different challenges along the way.)
44

MEIKO

(We need to be there for them and support them in whatever ways we can.)
45

MEIKO

Oh, however... You can't be pushy about it, okay?
46

MEIKO

Listen

You have to always keep their feelings in mind. Be listeners and not speakers...
47

MEIKO

Promise me you'll do that.
48

Rin & Len

We promise!
49

MEIKO

Listen

Hehe.
50

MEIKO

And since you're here, would you like something to drink...?
51

Rin

Listen

Yeah, I'm parched since we literally ran over here! I'd like an orange juice!
52

Len

Listen

Me too!
53

MEIKO

Listen

Okay, coming right up.
