Chapter 2 Dai Star
Noa : Excuse me. I bring Yae with me.
Shamo : Yes, thank you for your hard work.
Yae : Eh. Shamo-san? Wait.. if Shamo-san is here then it means--
Shamo :Yes, I want to talk to you.
Yae : (Im-Impossible! I never expected Shamo herself.... did-, did I mess up something without even knowing it!?)
Shamo : Fufu, don’t be so tense. Firstly, could you please read this letter?
Yae : Y-Ye, Yes!
Yae : The sender is.... World Theater League??
Yae : Etto.. Niizuma Yae is approved as a Dai Star!?
Yae : This- This means..!
Shamo : Congratulations. From today on you are also a Dai Star.
Yae : ..! Me ? As a Dai Star?
Yae : Sorry, but is this real?
Shamo : Oh my, are you doubting me?
Yae : No, I didn’t mean it.
Yae : But at time like this, this means, Did they decide this at yesterday’s Phantom of the Opera play?
Yae : Even though I'm not the one doing the main character, why—
Shamo : Main character or not is not the problem here. The essential part here is as an actor you did an excellent job in your acting.
Yae : Th-Thank you!
Noa : Please keep in mind that Dai Star Acknowledgement Ceremony and Trophy awarding ceremony will be held.
Yae : Y-Yes..!
Yae : (I, become a Dai Star..!)
Yae : (The dream I’ve been chasing is becoming reality! This letter, I should treasure it)
Noa : What’s wrong? Is there anything else inside the envelope?
Yae : No.. This envelope, Is dazzling and beautiful. Just like Cinderella’s dance party invitation.
Shamo : That’s why it’s the key to realize your dreams.
Yae : Ah, No.. I wasn’t thinking that far.
Yae : But you are right Shamo-san.
Shamo : Fufufu. You are still immature in that part.
Noa : Indeed. Although you are usually too mature for your age.
Yae : Eh?
Yae : (I never meant to act mature like that though..)
Noa : Yae, we’ve arrived at Sirius. I will pay for the taxi, so you can get off first.
Yae : O-Okay.
Yae : Acknowledgement ceremony.. I’m glad everything ended well. I also got the trophy, with this I'm a member of Dai Star
Yae : (If that letter is the invitation, then this is the glass slipper to bring me closer to the dream.)
Yae : (That seems a bit childish, isn’t it?)
Kokona : Yae-chan welcome home!
Yae : Kokona-san, Shizuka-san!
Kokona : Wah, that’s a great trophy! Yae-chan became a Dai Star.
Kokona : Once again, Congratulations for your Dai Star acknowledgment.
Shizuka : Although I’m frustrated by the fact that you got ahead of us, we definitely going to catch up to you.
Yae : Yes, both of you certainly..!
Reporter: Excuse me, Are you Niizuma Yae-san? I am from the newspaper company. Now that you’ve become a Dai Star, can you tell us what is your feeling right now?
Kokona : Waah! Interview already? As I expected from Yae-chan
Shizuka : Yae-chan’s current feelings... I’m interested too.
Yae : Eh! E-Even if you suddenly ask things like that--)
Yae : Etto.. What I feel now, I guess it’s like Cinderella’s feeling.
Yae : (Wait, what did I say)
Reporter : I see.. Thank you for your answer!
Yae : Ah..
Yae : (Was that answer really okay?)
Yae : Now, yesterday was quite busy, today I will go practice—
Yae : Oh? Looks like everyone is already gathering at the practice studio.
Kokona : “Feels like Cinderella’s feeling means, just like how Cinderella’s glass slippers continue to exist after the magic is broken—“
Kokona : “It is showing the confidence of one’s quality as an actress continues to exist within oneself, even after stepping down from the role” This is written in the newspaper!
Shizuka : As I expected from Yae-chan. With just one sentence, she can deliver those messages.
Panda : Niizuma-cchi, her words are as deep as usual.
Chisa : Yeah. It’s as deep as Mariana Trench.
Katrina : You’re right. This answer isn’t something that can be easily thought of at that age. There’s a reason for her being chosen as a Dai Star
Yae : (N-no way)
Yae : (As a matter of fact, the reporter himself is extremely good at reading deep meanings.)
Yae : (I had a faint feeling that everyone misunderstood me as someone admirable and deep... I'm just an elementary school student)
Yae : (I’m happy that they are praising me. But, to be misunderstood like this--)
Yae : (I don’t want it. I want to be closer with everyone)
Yae : (Like laughing together when there is a joke.. I want that kind of casual relationship)
Yae : (I need to do something to be closer with everyone...!)
Noa : Sorry, anyone free? I need help with something
Panda : Here here! Panda is free.
Chisa : So am I.
Noa : Thank you. And then another one please—
Yae : (Don’t tell me.. Is this my chance to get closer!?)
Yae : He-here ! I am also free right now. Please let me help you!
