Chapter 4: Even though I want to improve myself
Kaname: That's not quite right. Mito, A little more gently, try acting with a softer expression.
Mito: Got it.
Iroha: Mito-chan. Deep breaths. You can do this at your own pace.
Mito: Right......
Kaname: Ok, from the top.
Iroha: "Princess, I'm terribly sorry! Please forgive me for falling asleep earlier!"
Mito: "Becky, Y-you don't have to worry about that. Sleeping here is understa-"
Kaname: Stop. Thats not the direction that I gave earlier.
Mito: Ah.....
Mito: I'm sorry.
Kaname: Mito...... Hey, if you're feeling tired, do you want to stop for the day?
Machico: ......What's going here?
Kaname: Boss, I see you're here.
Mito: I'm....... fine. Please let me have another shot......!
Machico: No, I won't allow it. You're going to leave for today.
Machico: We are all expecting you to be able to perform your role wholeheartedly and deliver the best performance you can.
Machico: But if you are unable to get into your role, then practice will be all for nothing.
Machico: I'm also going to give you tomorrow off, focus on recovering.
Mito: Tomorrow too?
Machico: Tomorrow too. Everyone feels down every now and then. And getting plenty of rest is the best remedy for that.
Machico: I just want the best for all Denki members. Now, head off.
Mito: Got it....
Mito: Now, if you'll excuse me.
Iroha: Mito-chan.
Mito: Ah, Iroha-chan. What's up?
Iroha: Uh, I wanted to give you something......! During the break, I went out for a walk and picked this up.
Mito: Sweets?
Iroha: They're macarons. I thought you would like them.
Mito: Oh! Can I have this?
Iroha: Eat up, and come back feeling better than ever.
Iroha: If....
Iroha: If you ever need anything, I'll be here to listen.
Mito: ......Thank you.
Mito: Iroha-chan, you're always so nice.
Mito: Even when we first met, when I was always so nervous, it never seemed to bother you. I am really grateful for that time.
Iroha: When we first met, huh. Are you talking about when we were 1st years?
Mito: Yeah. ......Has Mito talked about how shes living with her grandpa before?
Iroha: Yeah, I know about that.
Mito: My mum and dad, when we were all together, they would always fight with each other.
Mito: Mito would always be frightened and block her ears and hide away somewhere.
Mito: Nowadays, without them around, I'm fine now. But every now and then, I think about that.
Mito: About how if I speak to other people, they will get mad in a similar fashion......
Mito: That's why when I first met Iroha-chan, I was scared when speaking to you.
Iroha: ......So that's what was going on back then.
Mito: Ehehe. I went and spoke too much about myself.
Mito: Even though I have fun acting......
Mito: Even though I get along so well with Denki members......
Mito: Mito still can't communicate properly.
Mito: Mito really doesn't like that part of herself.
Iroha: That's really not the case! Right now, you're just not really too well is all.
Mito: It would be nice to think that...... But I don't know if that's what the people around me are thinking......
Iroha: People around you?
Mito: D-don't worry about it.
Mito: Thanks for hearing me out. Mito's going to get soem rest now. See ya......
Iroha: Mito-chan.......
Mito: In the end, Mito still left practice early.
Mito: Mito wonder why she wasn't able to get into the role. Even though she studied the script and performances before the audition......
Mito: Iroha-chan is so nice. She even gave me some sweets.
Mito: (If Denki were to disappear, Iroha would surely be depressed and cry. Mito doesn't want to see Iroha-chan make that face ever.
Mito: ......I've got to keep working hard.
