Haruka
I'm sure she's having a hard time making a decision. We should wait a little longer for her to find her answer.

Shizuku
The beautiful idol who can do anything. The one everyone looks up to. That's the Shizuku Hinomori of Cheerful*Days.
Shizuku
The fans who have been supporting me since my time in Cheerful*Days are expecting to see that version of me.

Airi
The Airi Momoi that appeared on variety shows always wore a confident smile and never missed the opportunity for a clever quip no matter what anyone said to her.
Airi
After a while, the public started seeing me as nothing more than that girl from those shows...
Airi
Eventually, random people started saying things to me when I was just going about my own business, expecting me to have a good comeback or laugh it off...
Airi
Well, in my case, the hardest part was having the agency and my fans expecting me to be Variety Show Airi Momoi...
Airi
By quitting like that, I most likely disappointed the people who liked the girl on those variety shows as well as the girl trying to be an idol.
Airi
I keep thinking that I wasn't considerate enough to my fans when I made that decision.
Airi
In my case, I was actually pretty good at playing the part they wanted me to. I sort of enjoyed all the stunts and conversations I was a part of...
Airi
But Shizuku... Her true personality is really different from the idol persona that was created for her, so her problem is a lot more serious.
Minori
The Shizuku from Cheerful*Days had a mysterious quality about her, but was so great at singing and dancing.
Minori
She felt like someone who was far out of anyone's reach, and it was always so wonderful seeing her like that...
Minori
The way she struggles with electronics, how she can be clumsy or forgetful, her drive to always try her absolute hardest...

Minori
I think all the things about the real Shizuku that we never got to see on TV are wonderful too.
Minori
If only the fans got to know her better, I'm sure they'd fall in love with her more and more as well.
Haruka
Minori, one of the best things about you is the fact you genuinely mean what you say.
Haruka
It's not like you embellish your words either.
You just have a natural talent for cheering others up.

Minori
If only there was a way to show the fans all of her charms! Maybe we could do a livestream to...!
Haruka
While I agree that the idea of doing a stream to help emphasize Shizuku's charms is a good one...
Airi
Haruka's right. Whether she protects her image from when she was with Cheerful*Days or chooses to show everyone who she is now...
Minori
But... It doesn't feel right to just sit around!
I want to do everything I can to help her!
I want to do everything I can to help her!
Haruka
You're right. What do you say we start preparing what we can for whichever path Shizuku ultimately chooses?
