CINDER349Please respect copyright.PENANAck7RIzkBrt
(optimistic)349Please respect copyright.PENANARCXoboD1A1

I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
349Please respect copyright.PENANAceIsEh1VIY
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]349Please respect copyright.PENANAIu5H4SqZwo
Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.349Please respect copyright.PENANA5NZ13j2HSH
When did you start training?
349Please respect copyright.PENANABlOCCRoCNd
CINDER349Please respect copyright.PENANAxeZ8UyGIaO

Let me tell you.349Please respect copyright.PENANATRggOlTIQ8
Always plan realistically in life.349Please respect copyright.PENANAGmiUhebOBS
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.349Please respect copyright.PENANAqmHNy7UyKa
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes349Please respect copyright.PENANAVZVj6BZa6O
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
349Please respect copyright.PENANAFB5Aw9IZry
CINDER349Please respect copyright.PENANATJy1N4Oj7o
And that is what differentiates us.349Please respect copyright.PENANAv9uvjMPPX4
Winning has always been secondary.349Please respect copyright.PENANAsvC4voLm4v
The thing that I love is dancing,349Please respect copyright.PENANA3cXiP6bEe5
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.

349Please respect copyright.PENANAe4jFtO5i9B
CINDER349Please respect copyright.PENANAPiZMzUQXB4
(optimistic)349Please respect copyright.PENANAkWfXRJhJps
I disagree!349Please respect copyright.PENANAHVrMqpHERi
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.349Please respect copyright.PENANAE6FDecR9cA
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,349Please respect copyright.PENANAkgoM1Arnbx
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
349Please respect copyright.PENANAwDF2rszgkq
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]349Please respect copyright.PENANAkZhJd24KPX
(disbelieve)349Please respect copyright.PENANAUL6WlT0EEn
Being the best itself is happiness!349Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2nojsarVM
Being the best brings you power and glory.
349Please respect copyright.PENANAdI33sOP6pY
CINDER349Please respect copyright.PENANA49qSA3sL86
I am just a dancer,349Please respect copyright.PENANAHZwWjx0YoQ
I don’t need to change the world.
349Please respect copyright.PENANAjmea2FXAFl

SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]349Please respect copyright.PENANARsYch703Rf
(profound)349Please respect copyright.PENANAb5PylTQHnR
You’ll need this too.349Please respect copyright.PENANAEiuz1mxxda
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.349Please respect copyright.PENANA9YpawqwFJk
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
349Please respect copyright.PENANArWz6xGnkfk
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
349Please respect copyright.PENANAssUqATGY9n
