Char	text
Player	Is the pianist performing today famous?
Riko	They play overseas as well as in country. 1
Player	Wow!
Riko	Actually... It's my old teacher. 2
Player	Wait, seriously?! The one that encouraged you to do recitals?
Riko	The one and the same. We're going to talk a little after the concert. 3 +
Player	That's cool. What's your teacher like?
Riko	The lessons were always strict. She'd know right away if I was being lazy with my practice. 4
Was she scary?
Player	Was she scary?
Riko	She'd compliment me for playing well, and was very nice outside of lessons. 5
I know a teacher like that.
Player	Really? There's a teacher like that at my school. Nothing gets by her!
Riko	*Giggle* Yeah. She's probably so strict because of how seriously she takes her music, though. 6 +
Riko	She was so sad when I decided to leave Tokyo, but we still message each other and stuff. 7
Player	Does she know that you're a school idol now?
Riko	Yeah, I...told her about it. She said she watches every new music video we put out. 8
Riko	She tells her piano students and other pianists she knows about me. 9 +
Player	Whoa! She really follows her old student, huh?
Riko	Mmm... Yeah. I'm glad, but when she sends me her thoughts on the songs or videos, it's a little embarrassing. Actually, unbearably so. 10 +
Riko	It's more embarrassing from someone like a former teacher than other people. 11
Player	There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Thanks to her, Aqours is getting more popular, even in Tokyo!
Riko	R-Right. 12 +
Player	So that's your teacher. Are you going to talk to her a lot?
Riko	Yes. There's so much I want to tell her. All about my life in Uchiura, school, and piano. 13
Riko	We'll talk about Aqours, too, and maybe I can get some advice on what to do from here. 14
Player	What to do from here? Are you guys going to be talking about some serious stuff?
Riko	What? Not really. I just want to ask her opinion on some topics. 15 +
Riko	Looking at a situation through someone else's eyes might open up a new perspective. 16
Player	...?
Player	Oh, the lights...
Riko	It's time for the concert to start. She really is great. It's quiet as a calm sea, but waves of passion swell up sometimes. 17
Player	How majestic. I can't wait!
Riko	There she is! Oh, the memories! 18
