Do you hear it, too?

[ Ai closes her eyes, listening to the melancholic tune. ]

[beathollow]

It doesn't seem to have a source, but every now and then the singer pauses, either to breathe a bit or to figure out what she wants to sing. But she can't seem to find the words.

[emptyself]

Yeah.

[ a beat. ]

It’s a sad sound.

[idealies]

It's as if...she's having trouble finding the words to sing.

[ Ai cranes her head in the direction of the voice. Is the singer's voice recognizable as anyone who's she's heard perform? ]

[beathollow]

It's Mafuyu.

[idealies]

It's Asahina-san!

[ Her face lights up with recognition, but also worry. ]

These are her feelings. Her longing.

[emptyself]

Mafuyu…

[ he looks around, his expression troubled by this fact. ]

This is such a sad place. I cant imagine what Mafuyu has gone through.

[idealies]

Her eyes always looked sad. She told me she's the lyricist of her group. It must pain her not being able to express herself.
