...
(My future...)
<But I believe it's about time for you to start thinking more seriously about your own future.>
My future...?
<Yes. For starters, what are you going to do after you graduate? You need to begin planning for that.>
<That's why I'd like to hear what you think, Kanade. What would you like to do...?>
(I've never given it much thought before.)
(I've been investing all of my time into composing songs that could save people...)
(I don't really know what I want to do...)
(I have to keep composing...
Anything other than that seems...)
Oh...
I think the bath's ready...
Oh, right...
You have school tomorrow, don't you, Mafuyu? It's getting late, so why don't you go first?
Okay.
<I'm stepping away for a bit.>
<Okie dokie. Enjoy your bath.>
<Oh, K.
About what your envisioning for this song...>
<...>
<K?>
<Oh, sorry... Yes?>
<About this song... Actually, is everything okay? It seems like you've been having trouble concentrating today.>
<Did something happen?>
<Oh, um... It's nothing serious...>
<My grandma called me today.
She told me that I should probably start thinking about what I want to do after I graduate...>
<After you graduate...?>
<Yes. I'm not sure what I'm going to do since I've been spending all my time composing music...>
<I see...>
<I mean, who actually knows what they want to do in the future?>
<I haven't even had time to give my own future any serious thought...>
<Wait, Enanan, you too?>
<Yeah. I want to keep drawing, but I don't know what to do about art school and stuff...>
<Oh, right. Art schools are super competitive, right?>
<Yeah, they are...>
<But it'd be great if you got into a school where you can further pursue art since you're so passionate about it.>
<While we're on the subject, K, is there anything you want to do after you graduate?>
<After I graduate...>
<Honestly, I kind of want to just keep composing like I've always been...>
<No, that's not what I'm talking about.
I'm trying to ask you if...>
<...?>
<Oh, are you asking what she “wants” to do instead of what she feels that she “has” to do...?>
<Yeah! Just like how Enanan wants to keep drawing. Isn't there something like that that really drives you?>
<What I want to do...?>
(I don't know...)
(I have to keep composing.
Nothing else really drives me the same way...)
<K...?>
<Oh, sorry...
I still can't think of anything else...>
<Okay...>
<To be fair, this is your life we're talking about. You don't want to make any hasty decisions.>
<I still don't even know what I'm gonna do yet, so I think you should take your time...>
<Thank you, I'll do that...>
<Not gonna lie, I'm a little relieved...>
<Huh?>
<I mean, K, you're always working really hard for the sake of others...>
<You compose songs in the hopes that you'll save someone. Yuki, for example... You've even done a lot for us.>
<Which is why I'm glad that you're getting a chance to think about yourself for a change...>
<Oh...>
<Yeah, I see what you mean.
K does usually put others before herself.>
<Exactly.
I really admire that. I have a huge amount of respect for you...>
<But I also think you should take more time to do the things that you want, K. The things you think are fun.>
<The things I want to do...?>
<Okay...
Thank you both.>
