Go! Now’s the time! Gooooo! “Why am I not the one standing up there?”, I keep asking myself. When I saw Ruri-chan giving it her all on stage, my legs just started moving on their own.

Suddenly, what was once so natural to me has become impossible. Like, “Eh? How did I used to smile?”, that kind of feeling. I started to get scared of everything, and all my self-confidence was gone. I had been living on nothing but self-confidence. But it was not too late. She has come for me!

I’m not good at thinking about complicated stuff. “Why couldn't it be Kozue or Tsuzuri, and why did it have to be Ruri-chan?” I've been thinking about it. Kozue and Tsuzuri were my teammates in the School Idol Club. Given my injury, being with them brought those painful memories back. But Ruri-chan is my precious childhood friend, she’s been there from the start. She made me feel like I could step back to those days... I don’t know! The one thing I can say for sure is, I couldn’t have come back to the stage if it weren’t because of everyone. Really, everyone is so kind.
