ā Be honest Shiori, what do you really think of your friends?
Theyāre great! The words stopped before they were formed. What do you really think? Shiori bit her lip.Ā āTheyāre...nice.ā Starting was easy enough.Ā āTheyāre both really talented and itās great. Theyāre friendly and theyāre always there for me. Theyāre so much better than I am.ā Stop.Ā āRinās art is amazing and I canāt draw at all! Keiās writing...Theyāre great.ā Shiori wanted to stop there. Itād be great if she could have stopped there.Ā āI like them a lot but itās hard sometimes. Rin and Kei are just so skilled and Iām just not. Itās tiring to always be the sidekick. Theyāre friendly and nice and I envy them. I get jealous whenever Kei talks about his works or Rin creates another selling masterpiece. Itās...itās horrible. They deserve so much better than me. I just, I just want to be like them sometimes, you know? I want to have something. But I canāt. I donāt have anything.ā
