(Halfway there with the tickets...)

(But there isn't much time left until our show, so I need to hurry.)

Okay, who else do I know that might be willing to come see our show...?

(Let's see...
For now, I can scroll through my contacts list...)

Morning, Shiho!

Good morning!

Oh, Minori, Kohane.
Good morning.

...

(They might be willing to see our show.)

(But if I tell them, they might tell Ichika and the others about us having to sell tickets.)

(I'd really rather not ask anyone at school about this...)

(So I'll ask them if I really start running out of options.)

Oh, that reminds me!

Leo/need's doing another show soon, right?

Huh...?
Yeah, but...

Do you know when?

I've really been hoping to see your next show. I couldn't go to the last one since we were busy doing a stream.

Oh, that sounds fun!

I got to hear Saki and Honami play when we were at the Seaside School, so I have to think you sound really amazing when you're all together as a band.

But that's not the best part, Kohane.

Huh?

If you go and see Leo/need, you'll get to hear the original song they made!

Really?!
You wrote your own music?!

Well, um, Saki came up with the melody and Ichika wrote the lyrics. We're actually working on our second song right now.

That's so cool...
Your very own music!

See what I mean?!
Don't you wanna go see them play?!

Yeah!

Oh...

(I'm such an idiot...)

(They were right under my nose this whole time...)

We do have a date for our next show.

Really?! When?!

One second.
It's written on each ticket.

Here...

Thank you, Shiho!
Whoa! It's a real ticket for a real show!

You're that excited about it?

Hehe. I mean, it's really a ticket for a show, right? I'm getting excited by just looking at it!

And it looks so different from the tickets you get for idol concerts, so it's double the fun!

Hehe. It is a nice design. It's clear that you're going to a rock concert.

Let's see. Your show's scheduled for...

Oh no, I have an event that day...

I'm so sorry, Shiho. My team and I are supposed to be in an event that day...

Oh, okay...
I guess there's nothing you can do about that...

Nooooo!!

M-Minori?!

Wh-What's wrong?!

*Sob*
We're doing a stream...!

Shizuku even said that we should go see your band and cheer for you!

Why?! How did this happen?!

Alright, alright.
I appreciate the thought, so just try to relax.

But I really wanted to go...

...

...

Thanks, you two.

We plan on doing more shows in the future, so I'll let you know then.

Really?

Yes, really.

Thank you so much, Shiho.
It's sad that I can't go this time, but I'm really looking forward to seeing you guys play...!

Me too! We're absolutely 100% gonna go see your next show! We wouldn't be your friends otherwise!

Thanks. I'll be waiting.

(Thanks, you two. Thank you so much...)
