CINDER244Please respect copyright.PENANAh2KQBmfsgR
(optimistic)244Please respect copyright.PENANALDthNoExqz
Absolutely not!244Please respect copyright.PENANAWdUlE2RGUh
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
244Please respect copyright.PENANA1tHh3OGs9m

When did you start training?
244Please respect copyright.PENANAWH8jZynAPN
CINDER244Please respect copyright.PENANATfGcrmi8mw

Let me tell you.244Please respect copyright.PENANATxf1wnvQIQ
Always plan realistically in life.244Please respect copyright.PENANAc1oGpfLTR5
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.244Please respect copyright.PENANAZgC8omSKxS
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes244Please respect copyright.PENANAWpRYriHJPB
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
244Please respect copyright.PENANAxYC2qPt4zl
CINDER244Please respect copyright.PENANATsyNpBFKkg
And that is what differentiates us.244Please respect copyright.PENANAvw0D013XsG
Winning has always been secondary.244Please respect copyright.PENANAPPZed4tojo
The thing that I love is dancing,244Please respect copyright.PENANAuAyoYV4b7C
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.

244Please respect copyright.PENANA69dJOnUSqk
CINDER244Please respect copyright.PENANArLwMqWJLY1
(optimistic)244Please respect copyright.PENANA8gE55a5V8Q
I disagree!244Please respect copyright.PENANA3nnHoo1Nvm
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.244Please respect copyright.PENANAx4SWBIz9F0
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,244Please respect copyright.PENANA0grFT91p5s
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
244Please respect copyright.PENANAaeyjwE3uCZ
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]244Please respect copyright.PENANAvWzUYSY9oH
(disbelieve)244Please respect copyright.PENANAyqdF3DDzKJ
Being the best itself is happiness!244Please respect copyright.PENANAw3idl1ZJhQ
Being the best brings you power and glory.
244Please respect copyright.PENANAcIYOz4zXNU
CINDER244Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8B2sA2kBe
I am just a dancer,244Please respect copyright.PENANAbwBuQfKjsj
I don’t need to change the world.
244Please respect copyright.PENANANzotXQJzHH

SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]244Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7GkC9viou
(profound)244Please respect copyright.PENANAevLBtnwefh
You’ll need this too.244Please respect copyright.PENANAXU5Z73TpFs
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.244Please respect copyright.PENANAdXh24zRVWL
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
244Please respect copyright.PENANAI4TwIDTLGL
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
244Please respect copyright.PENANA237BfV9QE9
