Part 1
Street SEKAI
Len
There she is! Hey, Rin!
Rin
Hey, Len! What's up?
Len
You're about to go practice, right? I wanna go too!
Rin
Aren't we supposed to practice on our own today?
Len
Y-Yeah, I know, but...!
There's this part I want to work on with you...
There's this part I want to work on with you...
Rin
I have stuff that I need to work on too, you know?
Len
Uh... But...
Len
Do you have to work on it all by yourself...?
Rin
Today? Kind of...
More importantly, is something bothering you, Len?
More importantly, is something bothering you, Len?
Len
M-Me?! N-No, there's really only this part that I want to work on with you.
Len
So when we do practice together, promise that we'll focus on that...!
Rin
Yeah, I promise!
See you later...
See you later...
Len
*Sigh*
Len
(What am I doing...?)
Rin
You were so good just now too, Kohane! You shined throughout that entire song!
Rin
I'm so jealous of you, An!
I wish I could sing with Kohane as her partner!
I wish I could sing with Kohane as her partner!
Len
(Why'd she say that...?)
Len
*Sigh*
Crase Cafe
MEIKO
Oh, hi there.
Len
...
Miku
Hm? Len?
MEIKO
What's wrong?
Len
A cream soda...
MEIKO
That's not what I meant, but sure...
Len
...
Miku
Is something getting you down...?
Len
Can't you see...?
Len
(I couldn't focus at all during practice.)
MEIKO
Alright, here's your cream soda.
MEIKO
So what happened?
Are you having another fight?
Are you having another fight?
Len
No, it's not that.
But...
But...
Miku
Oh...
Miku
Is what Rin said about wanting to sing with Kohane bothering you?
Len
...
MEIKO
Bullseye...
Len
*Sob*
Len
Yeah, Kohane's performance was unbelievable...
Len
But I'm her partner, aren't I?!
Len
I even asked her just a little while ago to practice with me, but she told me that she wanted to practice alone!
Len
If one partner says they want to sing together, shouldn't the other one grant their wish?!
MEIKO
Len, please try not to spill your cream soda...
Miku
Here, have some ice cream and try to settle down.
Len
...
Miku
Hey, wait, I didn't mean you can have all of it...
Len
Sh-Shooo... C-Cooold...!!
Miku
Oh, you. Always causing mischief.
Len
B-But...!
Miku
Anyway, just try to calm down.
I really don't think Rin meant anything by what she said.
I really don't think Rin meant anything by what she said.
Len
I get that, but still...
MEIKO
So you do understand...?
If that's the case, all you need to do is make up your mind.
If that's the case, all you need to do is make up your mind.
Len
Huh...?
Miku
You said that you weren't trying to puff your chest out that time, but it's clear that Rin means a lot to you, Len. Enough to make you feel the way you do now.
Len
Yeah...
Miku
Then, I don't see anything wrong with what you did. Do you?
Len
I mean, I looked like an idiot... It was so embarrassing...
Miku
Hmm...
Miku
You want to be the best partner you can, right? Are you going to let something like that get in your way?
Len
...
Len
R-Right... Okay...
Len
My mind's made up...!
Len
I'm gonna try to be the best partner Rin's ever had!
Len
Kohane became an incredible singer after practicing really hard, so I'm gonna do that too! Can you help me with that, Miku?!
Miku
Sure, but it won't be easy.
Len
I know!
Len
Alright, let's do this!!
