"We... we finished!", Mafumafu exclaimed as Soraru sighed out in relief and nodded. "Good work, Mafumafu.", Soraru praised as he raised his hand lightly and Mafumafu understood as he high-fived the older male.

"Well, you go and tell them that you want to perform today then. I am going to wait for you backstage later.", Soraru told the younger male who tilted his head.

"Are you not going to participate as well, Soraru-san?", Mafumafu asked as the raven-haired male shook his head.

"I'm fine with not performing this year. I have more opportunities to perform anyway and this is about you and Sakata today.", Soraru explained as Mafumafu only nodded as he felt guilty.

Soraru noticed this as he only sighed and walked past the albino and gave him a quick pat on the head. "Don't worry about it.

Just go and do what's right. I'll be waiting on the stage and watch behind the curtains.", Soraru assured him as Mafumafu looked behind him to see the ravenette leaving and waving without looking back. The albino only blushed as he touched his head where Soraru just patted him before smiling softly. "Alright! Let's do this then!", Mafumafu exclaimed as he ran to the staff to ask them to sign him up for today.

"...Soraru-san, I might not be able to do this after all.", Mafumafu said after he looked at the audience. He didn't expect that there were actually so many people coming.

When he said that though, he only was only hit lightly by the thin book Soraru was holding. "Don't be ridiculous.

You've been working hard on that song just so you could reach Sakata so now you are going to pull through it till the end, got it?", Soraru asked as Mafumafu pouted slightly but nodded before smiling. "Thanks, Soraru-san! I am going to give it my all then!", Mafumafu exclaimed as the older male hummed satisfied.

"Mafumafu-san? You are up next.", a staff member said as Mafumafu only nodded before going out on the stage. "U-um... I am going to sing a song that I've written dedicated to my friend. I hope you guys will like it.", Mafumafu said as the music started playing. (You must have guessed the song now ww Imagine it only Mafumafu singing~)

Mafumafu continued to sing the song as he imagined the redhead actually being there with him and listening to him.

After he slowly got used to singing in front of the crowd, he decided to scan through them and look if they liked his singing.

Mafumafu sang the last part as strong as he could and he widened his eyes when he suddenly saw a red-haired male standing there in the middle of the crowd staring up at him.

And Mafumafu was shocked and surprised to see the red-haired male crying when he heard that. Honestly, he felt like crying as well but he held it back as he finished singing the song.

As soon as he finished, Sakata already turned to leave the room.

The audience cheered and applauded after he finished but Mafumafu didn't pay them any attention anymore as he only quickly bowed before running off the stage and ran after Sakata.

Soraru noticed this immediately as he only followed the albino who followed the redhead. Fortunately, it was easy for Mafumafu to spot Sakata because his red hair stood out.

He made sure to not run into any people and apologize whenever he did bump into people while Soraru just dodged all of them and followed the albino. "Sakatan! Wait for me!", Mafumafu shouted but Sakata didn't pay them any attention anymore as he tried his best to get away from Mafumafu.

And after all the running of trying to escape and catch up to the other, they ended up on the rooftop. They all stood there as they tried to catch their breath. "Give it up, Mafumafu.
