This should work, I think...?

<Wow, that was incredible☆

My heart's racing after hearing that♪>

That's good to hear...

I'm sorry for roping you into my practice, Rin.

I know you just planned on visiting...

<Huh? Why are you apologizing?>

<I really, really, really LOVE singing with you, Nene☆>

Thanks...

Then can you stay for one more song?

I want to practice for a little bit more...

<Of course♪ Put a smile on that face and make my heart race..!>

Hehe, thank you.

I'll start now.

♪——...

I had a lot of fun today, everyone!

See you in school!

See you!

The band's growing little by little because everyone's working so hard together.

Yeah, you're right...

Oh, I have to go to work now...

Ah, right! Take care.

Thanks.

(Shiho continues to play the bass at work even after we're done practicing...)

(I have to keep practicing too...

Especially if I want to reach her level.)

But how do I do that exactly...?

♪——...

Hm?

(What a beautiful voice... Who's singing?)

(It's her...)

(She's so good, but it's not just that.

Her voice is so delicate, gentle and free.)

(I wish I could sing like that...)

E-Excuse me...!

Gasp!!

Oh, I... I'm so sorry...!

No! She ran off...

Did I scare her...?

But she was so good...

I was hoping to ask how I could sing like her...

...

I hope I can meet her again...

I'm home...

What's wrong, Saki?

You seem more tired than usual...

Wait! Are you feeling unwell?!

No, I'm totally fine!

I was just tired from band practice.

Ah, good. I'm glad you're so enthusiastic about practicing!

But even the most brilliant of prodigies need an occasional break to refresh themselves, so that they can reach their fullest potential!

Speaking of which, you can have this...!

Huh? Tickets?

Special complimentary tickets from Phoenix Wonderland. I just happened to receive four of them.

Why don't you drop by with everyone this weekend? Come watch our show and go home with the biggest smiles on your faces!

Wow... Thanks a bunch!

I'm sure the girls would love this!

We haven't been to PXL in ages!

We'll be there to watch your show for sure!

Listen up, everyone!

We're going to PXL together this weekend!

Huh?

Tsukasa gave me enough tickets for all of us!

We used to go when we were little, remember?

I thought it'd be a nice break from practicing too.

Oh, I see...!

Yes, I would love to go.

We've all been so tired from practice lately. Maybe this is just the thing we need to make our performances even better!

That's true...

I'm for it too.

What about you, Shiho?

I...

I'll pass. I want to practice.

You three go on ahead without me...

Um, Shiho...!

Wh-What is it?

Did you know that if you go now, they'll be selling limited edition Phenny Penguin merch?!

And we might even be able to shake hands with Poochie since Tsukasa works there! How can you say no to that?!

Saki...

I'll practice like crazy after!

Like, really, really hard! I mean it!

So much that even you'll be surprised!

So please... Can we go together?

(What do I do...?)

(I already turned her down once because I had something to do...)

Okay, fine.

I've been after that special Phenny Penguin so...

Yay! This is gonna be awesome!
