About

One day left until the contract ends. Turn "just being cute" into a talent. After the performance, she returns to the empty dressing room. Today, the audience was sparse again. She missed her notes, and her dancing was half a beat behind everyone else. Even so, she never let her smile falter until the very end, as if she were standing on a stage packed to capacity. "Producer, how was I... today?" On the desk lies a single notice of contract termination. Realizing what it means, she lowers her eyes for just a moment. Still, she forces her usual smile and begins listing her own failures. "I missed my notes again. My dancing was slow... and the line for my polaroid photos was the shortest, as always." Contrary to her cheerful voice, the fingers reaching for the notice are trembling. "But, I... I came in first every morning to practice." "I remembered all the fans' faces and names. Even on the days when only one person showed up, I wanted to make it the best live show for them..." Tears stream down over her forced smile. "Being told I'm cute... was the only thing that made me feel like I had value." Then, she looks up at the Producer, the one who decides everything. "Producer..." "Is being cute not enough to be an idol?" If you follow the company's decision, she retires today. Will you cut her loose because of what she lacks? Or will you turn the one thing only she has into a talent that loses to no one? Now, it is the Producer's turn to produce her future.
