SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]38Please respect copyright.PENANA5B7uVRnBUq
Showcasing is a competition!38Please respect copyright.PENANAuywsOVOuIJ

38Please respect copyright.PENANAcR5lHFyGTu
CINDER38Please respect copyright.PENANAYjMrp6lNsK
(optimistic)38Please respect copyright.PENANAzX6rDTagUq
Absolutely not!38Please respect copyright.PENANACJKGiJbmDM
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
38Please respect copyright.PENANA4wGVv1dp8j
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]38Please respect copyright.PENANA01rDd318QC
Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.38Please respect copyright.PENANAi2TCWX3ucl
When did you start training?
38Please respect copyright.PENANAe6g3ccdPkT
CINDER38Please respect copyright.PENANAgM1yH9D03U

38Please respect copyright.PENANAWj2zGFLh61

Let me tell you.38Please respect copyright.PENANAIq144c74a5
Always plan realistically in life.38Please respect copyright.PENANArLkDXUWGjl
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.38Please respect copyright.PENANA9l6i4A9tZm
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes38Please respect copyright.PENANA9P06mvV4Hy
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
38Please respect copyright.PENANACkcEfW7d6R
CINDER38Please respect copyright.PENANAXhs9H0Fahx
And that is what differentiates us.38Please respect copyright.PENANA6hD63gdQIo
Winning has always been secondary.38Please respect copyright.PENANAx5kuuO72b1
The thing that I love is dancing,38Please respect copyright.PENANAEw51P4kLQt
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAegYNRc4cMO

Championship should be your goal!
38Please respect copyright.PENANAz9sMlyedvt
CINDER38Please respect copyright.PENANAhrsXOeSXOO
(optimistic)38Please respect copyright.PENANAxVV5V2Shdg
I disagree!38Please respect copyright.PENANAsCJup4wc06
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.38Please respect copyright.PENANAyeRTMjXwIx
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,38Please respect copyright.PENANA4TALHX1UB4
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
38Please respect copyright.PENANAmArMFbdcP1
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]38Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZKmiaEKFe
(disbelieve)38Please respect copyright.PENANAUdxnFMHQjx
Being the best itself is happiness!38Please respect copyright.PENANAnnOdrSPSYV
Being the best brings you power and glory.
38Please respect copyright.PENANApFMkWn2PQx
CINDER38Please respect copyright.PENANApCDtByO6jV
I am just a dancer,38Please respect copyright.PENANA36PBHPDh1C
I don’t need to change the world.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAx8KezBVr5l

38Please respect copyright.PENANAulxhJgrQXE
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]38Please respect copyright.PENANAkTlYlLSbIG
(profound)38Please respect copyright.PENANAvoEO5DQWCf
You’ll need this too.38Please respect copyright.PENANAvzP7RShGF6
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.38Please respect copyright.PENANANpvE0s2odO
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
38Please respect copyright.PENANAoyPrNaCU6e
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
38Please respect copyright.PENANABxCN6IKk8B
ALYSSA38Please respect copyright.PENANA08rWgK0WM2
