248Please respect copyright.PENANAVMkVJyvio2

SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]248Please respect copyright.PENANAvKmeghIdFm
Showcasing is a competition!248Please respect copyright.PENANAu3p2gEU7es

248Please respect copyright.PENANADNtcfWSnJI
CINDER248Please respect copyright.PENANAb1mDP9copy
(optimistic)248Please respect copyright.PENANAt9Ps2iEOe4
Absolutely not!248Please respect copyright.PENANAENkFG2gxpN
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
248Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5ympML7O2
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]248Please respect copyright.PENANA7cVFfTDAcH
Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.248Please respect copyright.PENANAGUr397y5f7
When did you start training?
248Please respect copyright.PENANAcFnKhfKpjz
CINDER248Please respect copyright.PENANAoG9p39PzD7

248Please respect copyright.PENANAKIp822iiJB
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]248Please respect copyright.PENANAAJ1EcxuXMe

Let me tell you.248Please respect copyright.PENANAjuGoJa9TMs
Always plan realistically in life.248Please respect copyright.PENANAx9rBWyuJeS
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.248Please respect copyright.PENANAqFRKCYqug1
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes248Please respect copyright.PENANABkGEN60TC3
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
248Please respect copyright.PENANArxcmHJvn5Z
CINDER248Please respect copyright.PENANAeDyMAXRwcc
And that is what differentiates us.248Please respect copyright.PENANAD3EmXT4bOJ
Winning has always been secondary.248Please respect copyright.PENANAeePNdclCtd
The thing that I love is dancing,248Please respect copyright.PENANAl40Twk8iZb
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.
248Please respect copyright.PENANADfRtqEEgza
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]248Please respect copyright.PENANAuJewtcZbpw
(disbelieve)248Please respect copyright.PENANAHWJcUIGqEk

Championship should be your goal!
248Please respect copyright.PENANAXfMTZYiPQH
CINDER248Please respect copyright.PENANAUrL3gIgHRh
(optimistic)248Please respect copyright.PENANAhd2pUbiA12
I disagree!248Please respect copyright.PENANAoqxypvjv7k
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.248Please respect copyright.PENANAPV7Gq8kBjV
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,248Please respect copyright.PENANAt10iQEQ3pS
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
248Please respect copyright.PENANAoigEop1WEk
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]248Please respect copyright.PENANA6KYKgiRU9O
(disbelieve)248Please respect copyright.PENANABTJY0AoEP6
Being the best itself is happiness!248Please respect copyright.PENANAPrHj53fc9D
Being the best brings you power and glory.
248Please respect copyright.PENANAZvzp2ioUcd
CINDER248Please respect copyright.PENANAazrxuVr8xT
I am just a dancer,248Please respect copyright.PENANAHSphN6TJ1N
I don’t need to change the world.
248Please respect copyright.PENANAJrWYPflSRB

248Please respect copyright.PENANA8fCdeopxrh
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]248Please respect copyright.PENANA7Xj4JjZwFw
(profound)248Please respect copyright.PENANAi4Bc9Jj9Ng
You’ll need this too.248Please respect copyright.PENANA4PSSWHum4K
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.248Please respect copyright.PENANAbhbGmlttJJ
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
248Please respect copyright.PENANAmTzFlf7dtF
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
248Please respect copyright.PENANADQlQw3Ulue
ALYSSA248Please respect copyright.PENANAtzNVtJ54Gy
