247Please respect copyright.PENANAZJRc1LwI3k

247Please respect copyright.PENANAuS5yw5ayD9
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]247Please respect copyright.PENANA0FFycJyKP5
Showcasing is a competition!247Please respect copyright.PENANAg1IqsAs5PT

247Please respect copyright.PENANAF1Id8Srmk1
CINDER247Please respect copyright.PENANABoxNnHoot2
(optimistic)247Please respect copyright.PENANAgIpyWarVll
Absolutely not!247Please respect copyright.PENANA5qmCvSQ2Rn
I’ve been practicing every day ever since I fell in love with dancing.
247Please respect copyright.PENANAu3W2mtpfXQ
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]247Please respect copyright.PENANAKYCMitTZVQ
Those who enter the competitions are all trained from a young age.247Please respect copyright.PENANAXQFRRP7rWX
When did you start training?
247Please respect copyright.PENANABuULWQKKI8
CINDER247Please respect copyright.PENANAGtfnc7MEnv
I am self-taught.
247Please respect copyright.PENANAwegT5rQ0uk
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]247Please respect copyright.PENANAh7rF2I8dDD

Give up this dream.247Please respect copyright.PENANAeXQNItqMIY
Let me tell you.247Please respect copyright.PENANALMgmWbt1yH
Always plan realistically in life.247Please respect copyright.PENANAeNQG3FyQlm
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.247Please respect copyright.PENANASDPijhC0Ee
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes247Please respect copyright.PENANA7am9JmZ2QV
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
247Please respect copyright.PENANAMMwlkK3Bik
CINDER247Please respect copyright.PENANAdHq4e7lv8P
And that is what differentiates us.247Please respect copyright.PENANAabZr9F8Cwq
Winning has always been secondary.247Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5Dr5g0cFl
The thing that I love is dancing,247Please respect copyright.PENANApOJ1J3RnPa
I don’t need to be the first chair or have a solo to prove I’m worthy of doing the things I love.
247Please respect copyright.PENANAbBuCIYfpPv
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]247Please respect copyright.PENANAWxOLoyJvv1
(disbelieve)247Please respect copyright.PENANAKqn3C9GEeh

Championship should be your goal!
247Please respect copyright.PENANAWggv7zFknz
CINDER247Please respect copyright.PENANAd36V1zcfJ9
(optimistic)247Please respect copyright.PENANAHpPYOCf5rE
I disagree!247Please respect copyright.PENANAabzeNjRjmC
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.247Please respect copyright.PENANAak8SLwghTW
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,247Please respect copyright.PENANArc0sVxqWK7
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
247Please respect copyright.PENANAvMVxQsMRUr
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]247Please respect copyright.PENANAYleNLFpq5Q
(disbelieve)247Please respect copyright.PENANAxgcpbDxpTJ
Being the best itself is happiness!247Please respect copyright.PENANAnurBLpTIOL
Being the best brings you power and glory.
247Please respect copyright.PENANApMCG43FbNx
CINDER247Please respect copyright.PENANA7mSjgYdlUC
I am just a dancer,247Please respect copyright.PENANAIgyeKIX0dN
I don’t need to change the world.
247Please respect copyright.PENANAWmMPEi4nMl

247Please respect copyright.PENANArPfl9Z8wTJ
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]247Please respect copyright.PENANAmOcqAjah3k
(profound)247Please respect copyright.PENANA5HXffvqKVO
You’ll need this too.247Please respect copyright.PENANAEGqdm0YRiw
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.247Please respect copyright.PENANAq5TOcqz8wU
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
247Please respect copyright.PENANAMZW3nV9Gn3
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
247Please respect copyright.PENANAmoRPcjTzUy
ALYSSA247Please respect copyright.PENANAQhOINZ5VTz
