An's giving another great performance!

Audience Member B

Yeah! She stands head and shoulders above everyone else her age.

Audience Member B

Listen

At the same time, I feel like she's sort of lost her step.

(This is bad.)

An

Listen

(It still felt like I couldn't sing with everything I had.)
9

An

Listen

(This has been happening a lot recently.
I keep singing and singing, but feel like I'm missing something.)
10

An

Listen

(And I know why. But...)

I'm really, really sorry, An...!

An

Listen

It's okay, Kohane.
You don't need to apologize...!
13

An

Listen

I should've done more to protect you back there...
14

An

Listen

But...!
I promise to look after you from now on!
15

An

Listen

I'll make sure you can have the confidence to sing without any fear!
16

An

Listen

So, Kohane... Let's keep singing together!

Kohane

Kohane

Listen

I'm sorry, An...
19

An

Listen

Oh...
20

Kohane

Listen

I really, really appreciate everything you just said.
21

Kohane

Listen

And I do really want to keep singing with you.
22

Kohane

Listen

I want to keep on chasing after that dream with you.
23

Kohane

Listen

But...
24

Kohane

Listen

But it's no use...
25

Kohane

Listen

I'm so...scared of performing on stage again...
26

An

Listen

Kohane...
27

Kohane

Listen

If I can't fix that...
28

Kohane

Listen

Then there's no way I can keep singing with you...
29

Kohane

Listen

Which means I can't surpass that legendary event with you...
30

An

Listen

No, don't say that...!
31

An

Listen

(Unfortunately...)
32

An

Listen

(Kohane's too afraid to sing right now.)
33

An

Listen

(Even if I tell her that everything's gonna be okay and force her back on stage...)
34

An

Listen

(She'll just end up suffering even more.)
35

An

Listen

(So, I have to...)
36

Kohane

Listen

I'm sorry, An...
37

Kohane

Listen

B-But...
38

Kohane

Listen

I want you to make your dream come true.
39

Kohane

Listen

Because I really love the way you sing.
40

Kohane

Listen

I genuinely believe that you have what it takes to surpass that legendary event.
41

An

Listen

Kohane...
42

An

Listen

Thanks, I will.
43

An

Listen

I'll make it happen, for sure.
44

An

Listen

(I haven't seen Kohane since then...)
45

An

Listen

(I've even stopped sending her messages.)
46

An

Listen

(It's too selfish of me to keep hoping that she'll come back around.)

An

(It's my fault for dragging her into this mess. She wouldn't have gotten hurt if I hadn't asked her to sing with me.)

An

Listen

Singing with her was...really fun.
50

An

Listen

What am I doing?
I shouldn't be acting all mopey after a show.
51

An

Listen

I already apologized to her about making her perform on stage like that, so there's nothing more I can do to change things.
52

An

Listen

I made a promise to Kohane.
I said that I'm gonna make my dream come true.
53

An

Listen

I have to keep moving forward.
