Chapter 5 - Me and my reason
Arisa : It finally over...
Rinko : Yes...
Arisa : After that, more and more people just keep on coming and not to mention we need to clean up the document too.
Arisa : I never think that being a student council is gonna be this busy. I really underestimated the student council job...
Arisa : Even so, Rinko-senpai, I never thought that you would become a student council president. You're already quite busy in Roselia, now you also need to do student council work, isn't that pretty hard?
Rinko : Certainly, It's quite difficult.
Rinko : But... I...
Rinko : ...Ichigaya-san, why did you enter the student council?
Arisa : Me!? Well for me... I thought that, If I enter the student council, then the teacher will make increase my grade~.
Arisa : Well, it's just that kind of impure motive. What about Rinko-senpai?
Rinko : For me, I become...the student council president is...to overcome...my own fear...
Rinko : If I stand in front of many people...or being together with someone that I don't know...I'll become so nervous...to the point that my mind went blank...
Rinko : I want to change that... so that's why I decided...to take the position of the student council president...
Arisa : To overcome your own fear huh. Even so, You're quite strict to yourself, aren't you.
Rinko : Fufu, That's true. But...If I don't do this, Then I'll just...run away...
Rinko : Also...That's not the only reason I take this position.
Arisa : Not the only reason?
Rinko : Yes... It's a bit embarrassing to say it myself, but---
Rinko : I think that... if I work hard...then I could help everyone have fun at school...That's why I take this position...
Arisa : So that everyone could have fun, huh. That's quite awesome.
Rinko : It's not that awesome...
Rinko : It surely, just... a bit of my own desire, that leak out.
Arisa : Desire?
Rinko : Yes. In the past, Not only I dislike standing in front of many people...I dislike trying new things too...
Rinko : Even so, until now... I get so many encouragements, from so many people... because of that... I started trying new things too.
Rinko : Like, going into a swimming pool, experiencing club activities....and also, going to a piano contest that I always run from...
Arisa : Ah, That contest! I heard that the result of that contest is so good to the point you even got a commendation.
Rinko : Y...yes! I never think that I'll get a commendation from this school...I'm really embarrassed at that time, but...
Rinko : By doing that... I have tried one more new things... After this, I want to work harder...one step at a time...
Rinko : No...[I want to see what lies ahead of me]... is what I'm feeling... right now...
Rinko : And now, that [One more step] is... [being a student council president]... or something like that...
Arisa : Trying to be a Student Council president is...Rinko-senpai's one step...
Rinko : Yes. It's just a small step...right.
Rinko : Even so...I still don't know if this [One more step]...will succeed... or will it fail...
Rinko : Or it could be just some big detour...
Arisa : ...
Rinko : If it were me in the past ... I would have been depressed because of that ... thinking that I was just doing something useless, and then, give up just like that...
Rinko : Thinking that I'm being a bother to everyone by not bearing any result...thinking that myself is miserable... and it's better if I don't do anything at all...
Arisa : But...It's different now, right?
Rinko : Yes.
Rinko : It's a bit strange. Right now... more than anything, I'll be happy if I could [Take a one step forward].
Rinko : If this didn't bear any result...then it'll become a shock to me. But...after that, I'll try to take a new step...
Rinko : If could take that [One step]...then I could walk...forward. That's what I'm thinking ... right now.
Rinko : AH...I'm sorry. I started talking on my own...! You're definitely bored...listening to my talk, right.
Arisa : It's not like that at all!
Arisa : It's not like that,,, It definitely not like that!
Rinko : ...Ichigaya-san...
