*Sigh*
Nothing's been going well lately...
(Especially during team practices when my mind gets so caught up in whatever this hazy feeling is...)
(Seriously, what is this thing?)
*Sigh*
I don't know why I'm feeling this either, but I'm guessing what just happened has something to do with it...
————! ——————!!
————! ————~~~!!
(This is nothing like her usual self. Did she just figure out how to commit to herself...?)
(I don't believe it. She changed that much in this little time...?)
——! ————!
This is the real Kohane...
(I'm glad Kohane's finally figured out how to have confidence in herself.)
(And I helped her reach that point...)
If you're still worried about what's gonna happen...
Just listen to what I'm about to say.
Let's believe in what An Shiraishi has to say, the girl who absolutely loves the way you, Kohane Azusawa, sing!
I understand how it's hard for you to believe in yourself, but it's easy for you to believe what I'm saying, right?
No matter what happens, I, An Shiraishi, will always believe in your ability to sing.
An...
I... I'll believe in you, An!
(That's right.
I fulfilled my duties as her partner for once.)
(I'm glad that I did and also really happy about Kohane being able to show in that event who she really is.)
(But as amazing as STAY GOLDEN was, my mind's not really in a mood to celebrate.)
*Sigh*
Why is that...?
Times like these...
(Haruka's the best person to ask about these things since she's gone through so much with her team... No, groupmates...)
(But she's probably super busy right now.)
Who else can I talk to...?
(Mizuki's gone today too...
Come to think of it, Mizuki hasn't been to school in a while...)
(But it'd be kinda bad to dump this on someone when they're actually eager to go to school for a change...)
(So who else...?)
(That leaves Dad, Akito or Toya...)
(I did already talk to them once about helping Kohane have more confidence in herself.)
(And there's also...)
Hehe...
I have more people to talk to than I realized.
(I'll just try asking as many of them as I can about whatever it is that's bothering me.)
(But I don't really know how to describe this to someone right now...)
Okay, let's start with that...!
(I'll try to learn a little more about this hazy feeling and figure out a way to describe it better.)
(And I don't want to ruin all the progress Kohane's made since she really seems to believe in herself now.)
Oh, I still have plenty of time...
I should go buy lunch while I can!
