Chapter 8: Shiromaru Mito's path from now on
Iroha: Sorry for being late, just came back from break.
Towa: Iroha. Is Mito alright?
Iroha: Yeah, She said that she'll be coming in tomorrow! Everyone must be really worried about Mito-chan, huh.
Towa: Not really. It;s just that without anyone to play Sarah, I won't be able to get any practice as Lavinia.
Iroha: Hmmm?
Iroha: Ah!
Towa: What is it?
Iroha: I just got a text. Mito-chan said that she's coming to Denki Space right now!
Mito: I'm here...... What do I do......
Mito: (I got caught up in the moment and said that I'm coming right away, but now I'm getting nervous about entering......)
Tsubomi: Shiromaru, what's wrong? I could see you from the window just standing there.
Mito: Tsubomi-san. Nothing's wrong. I'm going to head to practice now. Sorry for making you worry......
Tsubomi: Hold on a minute, Shiromaru. If you'd like, I can read your fortune if that's alright?
Mito: Fortune......?
Tsubomi: You're troubled with opening that door, aren't you? In these troubling times, we can get help from the Divine Revelation herself.
Tsubomi: ......Hold on a second, I gotta grab something for this, I'll be right back.
Mito: Ah......
Tsubomi: You see this crystal? You will be able to see your future through this. Are you OK with this?
Mito: Y-yes.
Tsubomi: Ideally we should be doing this in a more relaxing environment, but oh well.
Tsubomi: Oh crystal, please show this person the destiny of her future......
Tsubomi: ......
Mito: ......
Tsubomi: Peering into the light, I can see a Denki performance. It's "A Little Princess".
Tsubomi: The performance is over...... The audience is giving a standing ovation.
Mito: Does that mean the play was a success?
Tsubomi: It seems so. Shiromaru, you..... are up on stage smiling.
Tsubomi: It's all OK. The gods of theater have blessed this performance for its success. And that you will regain your strength.
Tsubomi: So Shiromaru, you can relax now. Your future is bright. Everyone is waiting for you.
Mito: ......Got it. I gonna head there now.
Mito: G-good morning!
Kamira: Hey, it's Mitorin, morning!
Towa: At this time of day, you can just say hello~.
Towa: If you're looking for Kaname, she's out right now.
Mito: I see......
Iroha: Mito-chan!
Mito: Iroha-chan! That phone call earlier...... I'm really glad you called me......
Mito: Mito has still a lot about herself that she's not satisfied with, but..... She'll keep trying and trying, in order to be able to stand up on stage with you.
Mito: So, will you also keep your eyes on me?
Iroha: Of...... of course!
Tsubomi: That look in her eyes...... thats the Shiromaru we all know.
Towa: It looks like you're back to normal.
Several weeks later
Kamira: Mitorin, Mitorin. Have you seen the reviews for the "A Little Princess" premiere!?
Mito: N-not yet. Kamira-chan, you were quick to be in the loop.
Kamira: I am a streamer after all, everyone was curious about it~.
Kamira: Look, not matter what review site you go on, all the reviews are raving about Sarah's actor. See!?
Mito: Is that so......?
Mito: Wow, it's true...... Theres a ton of them.
Kamira: Congrats! Lets keep this pace going!
Mito: Yeah, I'm glad to see it.
Kamira: That's all I wanted to pass on to you~. Ah, I gotta prep for my stream now, catch you later!
Mito: I see......
Mito: (It seems like everyone is praising me, that's reassuring to hear.)
Mito: (A lot has happened, I'm glad I got through it all.)
Female Student A: Umm, Shiromaru-san?
Mito: Y-yes!?
Mito: (It's the girl from before, I wonder what she wants....?)
Female Student A: I saw the reviews for "A Little Princess"! Shiromaru, you did amazing as the lead role.
Female Student B: "I was really able to understand Sarah's courage when she faced her fate."
Mito: You read the reviews......?
Female Student B: Yep. And we'd thought about going to watch the play...... So......
Female Student A: We thought we'd cheer you on.
Mito: ......Thank you. I'll do my best!
Mito: Oh, right! If you like, here's the flyer for the play...... The schedule is listed there......
Female Student A: Is that alright? Thanks!
Female Student B: I'm definitely going to go see it!
Mito: Please do!
Iroha: (Mito-chan is laughing, thats good.)
Iroha: (She even managed to get 2 customers to come watch! Mito-chan truly is one of my best friends!)
