Oh, Shiho! Are you heading for work?

Yeah. The band that's supposed to play today is missing someone, so I'll be playing in their place.

Oh, okay...

I say this every time, but what you do really is incredible. I mean, you're meeting some of these bands for the first time, right?

They're usually very thoughtful and understand the situation they're putting me in.

Also, being able to play with so many different bands helps improve my own playing skills.

I see... You've spent so much time honing your craft.

Yeah, but I've also started asking other bands about what they try to focus on as a group.

I want us to keep improving, so...

Shiho...

I promise to become a better musician and learn to support all of you...!

Honami... Okay, I'm holding you to that.
