Phew...
Nice one, Shiho.
That was a lovely performance.
Yeah, Shih, that was awesome!
You sound better than you did before the festival.
Thank you.
I thought you wanted to work on something specific, since you asked us to help you practice!
But you seem totally fine, based on the way you played just now♪
...
This seems like a good place to stop, so wanna call things here?
I agree. How does some tea sound?
We even still have some of those snacks you girls brought over the other day.
...
What's wrong?
Would you guys mind if we kept playing a bit longer?
Huh?
Why? Do you still wanna practice?
Not practice per se...
Oh, are you trying to say...
You're not happy with the way you played just now, right?!
Huh...?
Again, I thought you played really great today!
I got to see you play when you were on stage, and I thought you were just as good!
Um, Rin?
So, Shih!
I love how you wanna keep getting better and better! I know that you're motivated!
But you never ever should push yourself too hard!
No, it's just...
You practiced nonstop in preparation for that festival!
So, now that it's over, I think it's time to give yourself a chance to catch your breath!
Rin...
I appreciate you feeling that way, but I think you're getting the wrong idea.
Huh?
I'm not unhappy with the way I played today.
What?! But, you said you wanna keep playing...
Well, yeah.
I mean...
I'm just having a ton of fun.
We played well at the festival, and I could really feel it.
Practicing with you guys reminded me of that sensation. So, I kinda want to keep playing...
Hehe. I had a feeling.
Wait, that's what you were trying to say?!
Geez, I totally got the wrong idea!
To be fair, I didn't express myself very clearly.
Alright, in that case, let's keep playing a little longer.
Are you sure?
Yes. I totally understand how it feels to lose yourself in the flow.
*Nod*
I think those moments are important to remember...
Thank you.
Still, Shih, I know you're having fun, but you shouldn't push yourself too hard! Got it?
Okay, I'll be careful.
