The Next Day
Kaori and her group were getting ready. Currently, Kaori was sitting on a wooden chair, backstage at the theatre, reaching up and adjusting her flower crown with trembling, unsteady hands. Normally, before any and all performances she was calm and ready.

The building was absolutely packed. Over a dozen rows of chairs surrounded the circular stage, and for some reason, only a few were empty. As Kaori looked and saw that once again, she gulped.
