26 -《DIARY》

. . .

Dear diary,

I haven't written in here for a while now, have I? I probably should've started ages ago, since I got this notebook a while back...

Though there's a reason I've started writing now out of all times:

I've been invited to join an acting troupe in Phoenix Wonderland.

I figured it's pretty exciting, so I might as well write it down for future me to look back on. I mean, me? An actor? I'm not even sure I can do it myself...

But when that pink-haired one... Mizuki, was it? When they and their friends invited me to join them, there was just something about it that made me feel like I would really regret it if I said no.

So here I am.

I hope I've made the right decision.

Dear diary,

I will admit, working with with rest of the troupe has actually been really fun!

Learning how to act and gathering courage to face an audience... it makes me really nervous, but also a little excited too.

And how could I not be? Even when Mizuki and Rui put on that face that tells me they have something up their sleeves, and when Saki jumps around with enthusiasm and energy... I'm really glad I chose to join them.

I got a haircut, too. New hair, new me, I guess. Something to tell myself that I'm ready and won't let them down.

Here's to our troupe!

Dear diary,

Ah... it's been a while, hasn't it? I guess I've been quite busy with shows.

Not just shows, though-hanging out with the rest of the troupe has taken up a lot of my time too.

We made cupcakes at my house a while back, you know. Sure, they were slightly burnt, but I think the experience was sort of worth it in the end.

And Saki brought her brother over, too. I don't know what was more amusing-the lovestruck look on Rui's face or the disgusted one on Saki's. Mizuki said to me that it was like watching a romantic drama.

After that, Mizuki ended bringing their friend over. Or I guess she's my friend now too, isn't she? Her name is An and I really like hanging out with her. She's really nice, and you didn't hear this from me, but really pretty, too...

(Also, did you know, her and Tsukasa happen to be in the same online chat together? Shocker.)

We've had many more fun experiences other than that. Playing in the rain, a sleepover, a surprise party for Rui...

I'm glad I got to where I am now.

With teammates I wouldn't trade for the world.
