CINDER353Please respect copyright.PENANAIl3sBgsEq9
(optimistic)353Please respect copyright.PENANAxzlXhjonzx
Absolutely not!353Please respect copyright.PENANAIv3BsOi14c
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
353Please respect copyright.PENANA1gLcCiLHgu

Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.353Please respect copyright.PENANAMJnrywJBlh
When did you start training?
353Please respect copyright.PENANAOy8mWKwyF9
CINDER353Please respect copyright.PENANAFM6VyWwP4q

Let me tell you.353Please respect copyright.PENANA6fYk33SK2n
Always plan realistically in life.353Please respect copyright.PENANAriSGJxu3A0
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.353Please respect copyright.PENANAa6gF3NkyGk
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes353Please respect copyright.PENANAadzEthzDMW
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
353Please respect copyright.PENANApfMIa9FRCi
CINDER353Please respect copyright.PENANA0YBrB5tYlI
And that is what differentiates us.353Please respect copyright.PENANAWK7spxoE81

The thing that I love is dancing,353Please respect copyright.PENANAiaIiIVjxo6
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.

353Please respect copyright.PENANAbOf3ipMSfp
CINDER353Please respect copyright.PENANAEkVZVBUFHq
(optimistic)353Please respect copyright.PENANAQettjqLdsW
I disagree!353Please respect copyright.PENANAdHy8kRmtR0
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.353Please respect copyright.PENANARsUk7xQ0NC
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,353Please respect copyright.PENANATo4XHXg9dq
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
353Please respect copyright.PENANA0FoD32gz06
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]353Please respect copyright.PENANAKa50f7DuQC
(disbelieve)353Please respect copyright.PENANA7xl5YWYxEd
Being the best itself is happiness!353Please respect copyright.PENANA4tB3tbuWgc
Being the best brings you power and glory.
353Please respect copyright.PENANA5hntiKR3Ps
CINDER353Please respect copyright.PENANAQx9a6LYmSk
I am just a dancer,353Please respect copyright.PENANALv7dfWTAJw
I don’t need to change the world.
353Please respect copyright.PENANAeZxL3vt28N

SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]353Please respect copyright.PENANAGvUjnhOcjj
(profound)353Please respect copyright.PENANAKTAkAO4GEK
You’ll need this too.353Please respect copyright.PENANAeS4cn4w3f6
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.353Please respect copyright.PENANAbU0KtFFrGl
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
353Please respect copyright.PENANAtR5XVfdjBy
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
353Please respect copyright.PENANAMYcRN8DsZS
