How can I help you, young children?
227Please respect copyright.PENANAp5sEgteEBH

SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]227Please respect copyright.PENANALbo3Tsj4MV
Showcasing is a competition!227Please respect copyright.PENANA3aZkjU2vGp
What an unrealistic daydream!
227Please respect copyright.PENANAXJ3X1dDW7D
CINDER227Please respect copyright.PENANAVQisDIIbwd
(optimistic)227Please respect copyright.PENANAh06wM7RzE5
Absolutely not!227Please respect copyright.PENANAmic8zkoGd2
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
227Please respect copyright.PENANAVJBAAcC3lr
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]227Please respect copyright.PENANAeQMQmniXXW
Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.227Please respect copyright.PENANAhKUV6lWCIv
When did you start training?
227Please respect copyright.PENANAXIKyGFzkZg
CINDER227Please respect copyright.PENANAjLoaAmzWJn
I am self-taught.
227Please respect copyright.PENANAWxZ6bfItkw
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]227Please respect copyright.PENANApKGB0GwbBs

Give up this dream.227Please respect copyright.PENANA4sqkRECyBI
Let me tell you.227Please respect copyright.PENANAid1K4LyPfi
Always plan realistically in life.227Please respect copyright.PENANAUt6OwyvDhW
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.227Please respect copyright.PENANA8FdWbtlh7R
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes227Please respect copyright.PENANAFomVqVNnbH
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
227Please respect copyright.PENANAnvN1abkxdL
CINDER227Please respect copyright.PENANA6Im1BoCnBo
And that is what differentiates us.227Please respect copyright.PENANAabJ34aXg88
Winning has always been secondary.227Please respect copyright.PENANAcLEYptweIM
The thing that I love is dancing,227Please respect copyright.PENANAVeri0a7uRe
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.
227Please respect copyright.PENANA5QvF0Fes2v
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]227Please respect copyright.PENANA46voe6s8Qd
(disbelieve)227Please respect copyright.PENANA3lI80RoTkJ

Championship should be your goal!
227Please respect copyright.PENANAy8P6XNBx1k
CINDER227Please respect copyright.PENANAqjZmUM1H2o
(optimistic)227Please respect copyright.PENANAZNj6Yn8xrq
I disagree!227Please respect copyright.PENANAyKCPoF7jN5
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.227Please respect copyright.PENANAmBKVxdc7Ug
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,227Please respect copyright.PENANAIkrbDlsYUe
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
227Please respect copyright.PENANAv5Cz9orQFh
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]227Please respect copyright.PENANAYI6uaUOCxz
(disbelieve)227Please respect copyright.PENANAqjLRGgxnZe
Being the best itself is happiness!227Please respect copyright.PENANAPXLi8jEIro
Being the best brings you power and glory.
227Please respect copyright.PENANACKORoevNRn
CINDER227Please respect copyright.PENANAmmoFj2UNkf
I am just a dancer,227Please respect copyright.PENANA0RKVesTtIn
I don’t need to change the world.
227Please respect copyright.PENANAS4dV4m7YPW

(lightly laughing)227Please respect copyright.PENANA0pYZEyE2IM

227Please respect copyright.PENANAMpg4zkmjTb
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]227Please respect copyright.PENANAfxmlVzlIgh
(profound)227Please respect copyright.PENANAjfcXr2dPr8
You’ll need this too.227Please respect copyright.PENANAXmP53bOfTN
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.227Please respect copyright.PENANAg2Ya6C9IYB
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
227Please respect copyright.PENANAcjownjzYeQ
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
227Please respect copyright.PENANAQAmldhlMBc
ALYSSA227Please respect copyright.PENANAoNaOenoB8T
