Chapter 2: A wonderful film
Mito's Grandma: Welcome back, Mito. you didn't have practice today?
Mito: I didn't. I'll help out with opening the store.
Mito's Grandma: In that case, can you help with getting the bowls for the appetisers?
Mito's Grandma: I've made some food, eat up before it gets cold. Sorry its just leftovers.
Mito: That's alright, I love your simmered fish.
Mito's Grandpa: Hehe, thats good to hear. Hearing praise like that from my granddaughter just added a few years to my life and I can keep this store going.
Mito's Grandma: But Mito, aren't you tired? You're a student, and now you have theater practice as well.
Mito's Grandpa: You don't have to push yourself too hard to help us out. Grandpa and Grandma are still alive and kicking!
Mito: I do everything that I want to do, theater is fun and I'm not getting tired at all.
Mito: In the past, while Grandpa and Grandma were busy with the store, Mito was all alone at home....
Mito: But now, I can go to practice, read play scripts while at home. It's a good way to pass the time.
Mito's Grandma: Is that so. It's great to hear that you are having fun nowadays.
Mito's Grandma: ......Gosh, When is Mito and her friends going to invite us to see her plays. I wonder what it's like......
Mito's Grandpa: Oi. I thought we said to not talk about that.
Mito: !
Mito's Grandpa: Oh, my. Sorry for raising my voice back there.
Mito's Grandma: Same here, sorry for saying something like that. That must've surprised you.
Mito: ......That's alright.
Mito: (Inviting people to see our plays huh. Mito just wants to enjoy performing as is, just being able to be with Iroha-chan is enough.)
Mito: (But, the business side of Denki is hard, you have to attract lot of fans as well.)
Mito: Denki isn't going to be bought out anymore.... but if it were to happen, Iroha-chan would surely become upset.
Mito: Oh right. Since i have the time now, lets watch a movie and study the actors' performances.
Mito: Thank god I subscribed to this streaming service. This new release looks interesting, its on a lot of peoples' watchlist!
Mito: Before i met Iroha-chan, I used to watch several films a day, I would immediately watch the latest films and follow hot topics.
Mito: (......This movies heroine, shes good. The intonation, the projection, even the pauses.)
Mito: I wonder who the actor is, I don't know who they are.
Mito: (When you're on stage, there are a lot of large movements. But I want to incorporate the performance like in this film.)
Mito: ......Something like this?
Mito: Hmmm, thats not quite right......
Mito: When I go to practice tomorrow, I'll speak to Iroha-chan about the actor's acting. I might learn something new.
Female Student A: It's just that it was surprising that you were doing theater.
Female Student B: You used to seem to be a bit more gloomy. Like you were keeping people at a distance.
Female Student A: Right, like we can't tell what you're thinking, making it hard to approach you.
Female Student A: Is that so? I can't really picture something like that. I can for Senju-san though.
Mito: Ah......
Mito: (Will Mito really be able to follow Iroha-chan's advice?)
