149Please respect copyright.PENANAxAtHtrsXZZ

SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]149Please respect copyright.PENANACJ4yyLi9V4
Showcasing is a competition!149Please respect copyright.PENANAyx30okQHel

149Please respect copyright.PENANAzJNps4J9Ce
CINDER149Please respect copyright.PENANAFhznsKv6NJ
(optimistic)149Please respect copyright.PENANAvicQMnycH4
Absolutely not!149Please respect copyright.PENANAvgc7dI6CBS
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
149Please respect copyright.PENANANePjp1ZnUk
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]149Please respect copyright.PENANAciO6bNpmxd
Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.149Please respect copyright.PENANAOVepCGkI2M
When did you start training?
149Please respect copyright.PENANA42g4zRqsL2
CINDER149Please respect copyright.PENANArITPMOzVAj
I am self-taught.
149Please respect copyright.PENANA8Ov1imEfRs
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]149Please respect copyright.PENANA0tBR2yfJw2

Give up this dream.149Please respect copyright.PENANA6A7HtlVv7X
Let me tell you.149Please respect copyright.PENANAIQrchgWxpx
Always plan realistically in life.149Please respect copyright.PENANAlAbZAmJQDt
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.149Please respect copyright.PENANABC6zyo2zp9
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes149Please respect copyright.PENANAOOugXEEz4I
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
149Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZGZ7vldGt
CINDER149Please respect copyright.PENANAQIOpAuDHpr
And that is what differentiates us.149Please respect copyright.PENANAgTnvgCumng
Winning has always been secondary.149Please respect copyright.PENANA3WKd1yRHmy
The thing that I love is dancing,149Please respect copyright.PENANAWG63XYm7xd
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAih3j9uONgo
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]149Please respect copyright.PENANA1rC3JD6555
(disbelieve)149Please respect copyright.PENANAcXdzP70B1f

You must always aim for the best.149Please respect copyright.PENANA0Ru5iOpHR3
Championship should be your goal!
149Please respect copyright.PENANAZMwo5r3kxT
CINDER149Please respect copyright.PENANATIaWnBGv2W
(optimistic)149Please respect copyright.PENANAK3CKfyYz1f
I disagree!149Please respect copyright.PENANACqxQsrVVg8
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.149Please respect copyright.PENANAbUrnHBkeA0
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,149Please respect copyright.PENANAeocINREC4X
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
149Please respect copyright.PENANAZUDwFYDOtU
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]149Please respect copyright.PENANAlSW7vzPkWe
(disbelieve)149Please respect copyright.PENANAhxm3CGhRo3
Being the best itself is happiness!149Please respect copyright.PENANAIV6ygO7zF4
Being the best brings you power and glory.
149Please respect copyright.PENANArFRtNTzdnO
CINDER149Please respect copyright.PENANATAdupYX4Z1
I am just a dancer,149Please respect copyright.PENANAtk2TZx4ZZm
I don’t need to change the world.
149Please respect copyright.PENANA3OZuUqxOvF

149Please respect copyright.PENANAJKgBBSuU7V
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]149Please respect copyright.PENANAqloaEFSrsc
(profound)149Please respect copyright.PENANAW2fNpkiAaA
You’ll need this too.149Please respect copyright.PENANAsNRcTlOiF8
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.149Please respect copyright.PENANAccohumQLQJ
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAYI2cuOE0Tj
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
149Please respect copyright.PENANA961Tendu04
ALYSSA149Please respect copyright.PENANAFfx1yG9rCA
