*Nod*

I think that was the best run we've had of it so far.

Yeah!

Then, let's take a ten-minute break, but let's not forget how that felt!

Okay!

Time for some water...

Oh, Shizuku, that reminds me!

Have you heard back about your audition yet?

Oh...

No, I haven't heard back from them...

It's been almost a week, so I think it should be soon...

Well, it's best not to dwell on this stuff! You know what they say! Good things come to those who wait.

Shizuku!

The results of that audition just came in!

...!

Right on cue.

S-So, how did she do...?!

Really...?!

It's wonderful to hear that you passed.

Congratulations, Shizuku!

Yes, thank you.

And you're gonna be working with Hagiyama from ReLight, right?! She seems like the perfect choice, since she has such a nice shine to her! Now I can't wait to see your commercial!

Me neither. There's no doubt that she's good, so I'm sure you two are going to produce a great commercial.

Yes, well...

Wait, you don't seem all that happy for some reason. Is something wrong?

The truth is... I'm scared.

You're scared...?

I'm afraid that I'm going to ruin this commercial.

What?!

Ruin it? What makes you think that?

Because Hagiyama was truly overwhelming during that audition...

I took one look at her and realized that she possesses something which I don't.

I'm honestly wondering if I have what it takes to be paired with her...

Slow down...!

What do you mean you don't have what it takes? That's ridiculous—

That's just the truth of it.

She stands miles ahead of me.

But...

In other words, this Hagiyama girl must really be something else.

She is...

However, if I keep feeling this way, it's definitely going to negatively affect the quality of our commercial.

They chose me, so I need to do my best to make it as good as I possibly can.

Shizuku...

Okay...

But you shouldn't have to carry this all on your own.

What she said. We're here to help, so ask us if you ever need any!

We should be able to give you some assistance by watching you pose and such...!

All of you...

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

(We start shooting in just a few weeks.

I honestly don't know how much I'll be able to improve by then.)

(But if it means getting even a little bit closer to the brilliance Hagiyama possesses...)

(I have to try...!

For the sake of MORE MORE JUMP!)
