"Ok ạ," tiếng nhân viên vang lên, Yumiko tháo tai nghe xuống.
Tiếp nối lần trước, lần này cô vẫn đảm nhận vai trò MC cho chương trình "Tiara☆Stars Radio".
Lần trước người ngồi đối diện là Mekuru, nhưng lần này là một thiếu nữ khác.
Một cô bé mà cho đến vừa nãy vẫn còn lễ phép, đôi lúc lại tỏ ra đáng yêu, thay đổi biểu cảm liên tục một cách ngây thơ trước micro.
Futaba Mint.
Là "Mint-chan".
Hôm nay cô bé mặc một chiếc áo phông họa tiết sặc sỡ cùng váy ngắn, để lộ đôi tay và đôi chân mảnh khảnh.
Hiện tại, cô bé đang xụ mặt xuống, tay cầm lấy bình nước.
Sau khi cái cổ họng nhỏ nhắn phát ra tiếng ực ực, cô bé mở lời.
"Chị Utatane. Chị nói về chuyện của mình thêm chút nữa thì sao ạ? Đừng có cái gì cũng chuyền bóng sang cho em. Hãy nói những chuyện có lợi cho bản thân chị hơn đi."
"Hả? À... chị không có ý đó. Chỉ là nói chuyện với em dễ quá nên chị hơi cao hứng ấy mà. Chứ không phải chị cố tình nhường nhịn Mint-chan đâu nha?"
"Dù là vậy đi nữa. Chuyện của em thì em sẽ tự nói. Không cần chị Utatane phải mớm lời đâu."
"À thế hả...?"
Ý là cảm thấy khó chịu như thể được bố thí, chắc vậy?
Đúng là một đứa trẻ khó chiều.
Tuy nhiên, nói đi cũng phải nói lại, làm radio với Mint rất dễ chịu.
Không phải kiểu liên tục ghi điểm như Mekuru, mà là mang lại cảm giác ổn định.
Mới mười một tuổi mà đã có khả năng ăn nói như vậy thì quả là đáng gờm.
Chương trình đã diễn ra một cách vô cùng tự nhiên.
".........?"
Thế nhưng, trong lòng cô lại dấy lên một cảm giác sai sai.
Gì thế nhỉ?
Buổi radio kết thúc suôn sẻ, chẳng có lỗi lầm gì đáng kể.
Lần trước nhờ có Mekuru mà buổi radio trở nên hài hước và thú vị, lần này cũng thành công tốt đẹp.
Cả hai đều có thể coi là thành công.
Nhưng mà, cái cảm giác lấn cấn này là sao ta?
"Vất vả rồi ạ."
Mint đứng dậy, nhanh chóng bước ra khỏi phòng thu.
Không phải lúc để suy tư.
Yumiko cũng chào hỏi nhân viên rồi đuổi theo bóng lưng của Mint.
Dáng người cô bé thấp bé, thân hình mảnh khảnh, tấm lưng cũng nhỏ xíu.
A, dù có ra dáng người lớn thì vẫn là học sinh tiểu học thôi mà── nghĩ vậy, cô vỗ nhẹ lên vai Mint.
"Mint-chan. Sau đây em có đi đâu không? Đi ăn đồ ngọt hay gì đó nhé?"
Cô buông lời mời mọc.
Dù là một nhân vật có cá tính hơi "dị", nhưng cô muốn làm thân với con bé.
Sắp tới họ sẽ là đồng đội cùng nhau chinh chiến ở nhiều mặt trận, cô muốn mọi người hòa thuận vui vẻ với nhau.
"Hả, với em á?"
Mint quay lại, mắt tròn xoe, tự chỉ tay vào khuôn mặt nhỏ nhắn của mình.
Vẻ mặt ngơ ngác đó trông thật đáng yêu.
Nhưng ngay lập tức, ánh mắt đó chuyển sang vẻ ngán ngẩm.
"A... Vì là trưởng nhóm nên thế ạ? Tinh thần trách nhiệm hay gì đó? Thôi được rồi, mấy cái đó bỏ đi. Em không thích mấy chuyện phiền phức đâu."
"A, không. Chẳng liên quan gì đến trưởng nhóm cả, chị chỉ muốn nói chuyện thử thôi. Chị chưa biết nhiều về Mint-chan mà. Muốn nghe chuyện của em ấy."
Bị nói kháy một câu rõ đau, nhưng vẫn dễ thương chán.
Bình thường, cô toàn bị một con nhỏ bậc thầy trong việc chọc tức người khác xả những lời mỉa mai như mưa rào, nên thế này ăn thua gì.
Thấy vậy, Mint đảo mắt nhìn quanh như thể đang xấu hổ.
"Hừ, hừm. Ch-Chị lạ thật đấy, chị Utatane. M-Mà thôi? Nếu chỉ một chút thì em đi cùng cũng được. Dù sao em cũng là tiền bối mà. Là tiền bối đấy nhé."
"A, thế hả? Vậy đi ăn gì thật nhé? Mint-chan thích đồ ngọt không?"
Nghe hỏi, Mint xụ mặt xuống.
Cô bé quay ngoắt đi vẻ không vui.
"Em không thích cách nói đó. Cứ như đang coi em là trẻ con ấy, ghét ghê. Chị đang nghĩ cứ cho đồ ngọt là xong chuyện chứ gì. Em thấy suy nghĩ đó thiển cận quá đấy."
Chà, nếu bảo không có ý đó thì là nói dối.
Nhưng mà...
"Không... là chị muốn ăn... Sắp tới phải ăn kiêng để chuẩn bị cho Live rồi... coi như bữa cuối xả láng ấy mà..."
Ánh mắt cô trở nên xa xăm.
Phải đứng trước bao nhiêu người, gánh vác nhân vật trên vai để tham gia buổi biểu diễn trực tiếp.
Cô muốn xuất hiện trước khán giả trong trạng thái tốt nhất.
Trước Live phải ăn kiêng, âu cũng là chuyện thường tình của giới seiyuu.
"Ra, ra là thế ạ...?" Mint nhìn xuống cơ thể mình.
"Em cũng nên làm thế sao nhỉ...?"
"Không đâu. Mint-chan đang tuổi ăn tuổi lớn, ăn kiêng là cấm tiệt. Phải ăn thật nhiều vào, miễn sao không béo phì là được."
Ngày xưa mình có ăn bao nhiêu thì cũng chỉ phát triển chiều cao...
Còn giờ ăn bao nhiêu là nó đắp hết vào chiều ngang.
Nên về sau, cô buộc phải kiềm chế những món giàu calo.
"E hèm, bánh pancake hay crepe nhỉ? Bánh kem cũng được đó. Em cứ yêu cầu đi, hầu như chỗ nào chị cũng chiều được hết."
Khi cô vừa đếm ngón tay vừa liệt kê các ứng cử viên, đôi mắt Mint sáng rực lên.
Cô bé ngước nhìn cô với biểu cảm đúng chất trẻ con.
Nhưng rồi, khuôn mặt ấy lại xầm xuống ngay lập tức. Cô bé bắt đầu xoa bụng mình.
"Nhưng mà, giờ mà ăn... thì tối sẽ không ăn cơm được nữa..."
"A, phải ha... xin lỗi..."
Cô quên mất cái dạ dày trẻ con này.
Ăn vặt làm bỏ bữa tối thì đúng là không được thật.
"Với lại, mẹ... à nhầm, mẫu thân dặn là thu âm xong phải về ngay... nên quán xá thì... hơi..."
"Hưm, ra vậy. Mà cũng đúng ha... Ok, chị hiểu rồi. Để lần sau nhé."
Dù tuổi nghề có cao đến đâu, cô bé vẫn là học sinh tiểu học.
Điểm đó mình cần phải nhớ kỹ.
Tuy nhiên, Mint bỗng thốt lên "A..." như muốn nói điều gì đó.
Đôi mắt tròn xoe ngước nhìn lên.
"? Sao thế, Mint-chan?"
Khi cô hỏi, cô bé vội vàng lấy lại vẻ mặt bình thường.
"M-Mà, tuy không có thời gian! Nhưng nếu chỉ là uống nước ở máy bán hàng tự động thì em có thể đi cùng chị một chút! Có vẻ chị Utatane muốn nói chuyện với em lắm rồi mà!"
Mint ưỡn ngực nói.
Yumiko bật cười, đáp lại lời cô bé: "Vậy thì một chút thôi nhé."
"Mint-chan uống gì?"
Cô vừa lấy đồng năm trăm yên từ ví ra vừa chỉ vào máy bán hàng tự động.
"........."
Thế nhưng chẳng hiểu sao, Mint lại chu môi lên.
Cô bé dùng thân mình đẩy mạnh Yumiko ra.
"Được rồi ạ. Em là tiền bối mà, để em bao. Chị uống gì?"
"Hảaa... b-bao chị á...? Ơ, ơ kìa..."
Nếu là Mekuru hay các tiền bối khác thì không nói, nhưng để học sinh tiểu học trả tiền thì cảm giác tội lỗi đầy tràn.
Không, cái này có khi là cảm giác suy đồi đạo đức luôn rồi.
Nhưng mà, gạt phắt thiện ý của Mint khi con bé đang muốn ra dáng tiền bối thì cũng không hay lắm.
Vừa suy nghĩ cách đáp lễ sau này, lần này cô quyết định nghe theo lời cô bé.
"Rõ ạ. Vậy tiền bối Mint, cho em xin ly cà phê. Cảm ơn tiền bối đã chiêu đãi ạ."
"Vâng. Được thôi. Cứ để em."
Mint vỗ ngực cái bộp đầy đắc ý, rồi nhét tiền lẻ vào máy.
Sau đó, ngón tay cô bé ngập ngừng di chuyển.
"Chị Utatane, cái này được không?"
"A, chị uống đen nhé."
Thấy Mint định ấn vào loại cà phê sữa siêu ngọt, cô bèn hướng dẫn sang cà phê đen.
Thấy vậy, Mint thốt lên "Ồ...".
Rồi cô bé cũng mua một lon y hệt.
"Ủa, tiền bối Mint uống được cà phê đen hả?"
"Thường thôi. Em cũng có thưởn thức... thưởng thức... thưởn...? ...Em uống được mà."
Vừa nói, cô bé vừa bật nắp lon.
Dù đã lờ mờ đoán trước, nhưng ngay khi vừa nhấp môi, mặt cô bé nhăn tít lại như khỉ ăn ớt.
Cô bé nhìn chằm chằm vào lon cà phê đầy kinh ngạc.
"Hự... h-hả...? Khụ, đ-đắng thế này á...? Khụ, khụ khụ, hừm."
Cô bé đang cố lấp liếm, nhưng tiếng hắng giọng nghe sao mà đau thương quá...
"...Ch-Chị Utatane thấy cái này ngon ạ...?"
"À... ừm... Chị thích cà phê mà... Cà phê lon cũng có cái ngon của cà phê lon chứ... Chị cũng khá thích..."
"H-Hừm... E-Em hiểu mà. Nó có cái ngon khác với loại cà phê, đ-đờ-ríp? ...bình thường nhỉ... em hiểu mà..."
Dù mặt mũi nhăn nhó như muốn nôn, cô bé vẫn nhấm nháp từng chút một.
Nếu mình cầm loại nước khác thì còn đổi được, đằng này giống hệt nhau nên chịu chết.
Yumiko đành giả vờ không thấy vẻ mặt đau khổ đó mà đưa lon lên miệng.
Lúc đó, Mint bỗng thốt lên một câu bâng quơ.
"Chị Utatane. Buổi Live liệu có suôn sẻ không nhỉ?"
"Suôn sẻ chứ. Đương nhiên rồi."
"Chị thực sự nghĩ vậy sao?"
Khi cô bé ngước lên nhìn cô, mái tóc mảnh mai khẽ đung đưa.
Cô hiểu Mint muốn nói gì, nhưng cô giả vờ như không nhận ra điều đó.
Vẫn nhìn về phía trước, cô nghiêng lon uống.
"Không sao đâu. Đừng lo lắng quá. Chị và Mint-chan sẽ tập luyện bán sống bán chết mà. Chị nghĩ chỉ đơn giản vậy thôi."
"Chị Utatane, với tư cách là trưởng nhóm, chị ngây thơ quá."
Nếu Mint là trưởng nhóm, cô bé sẽ hành động thế nào?
Điều đó rất dễ tưởng tượng, nhưng cô không nghĩ đó là cách làm đúng đắn.
Tuy nhiên, cô cũng hiểu cảm giác bất an của Mint.
Nguyên nhân bắt nguồn từ sự việc trong buổi tập đầu tiên.
Trong buổi Live, đương nhiên phải hát và nhảy.
Về phần hát, có thể trình diễn những bài đã được thu âm và luyện tập kỹ càng.
Nhưng vũ đạo thì phải học lại từ đầu để phục vụ cho buổi Live.
Vì thế mới cần những buổi tập (lesson).
Phòng tập được công ty sản xuất thuê cho, nên hôm nay cô đang đến đó.
Buổi tập của bốn thành viên "Miraku".
Bước vào tòa nhà sạch sẽ sáng sủa, đi thang máy lên, rồi bước ra hành lang rộng lớn.
"Ồ."
Bỗng nhiên, cô nhìn thấy một bóng lưng quen thuộc ở hành lang.
Là Mekuru.
Dáng đi với mái tóc nảy tưng tưng trông thật đáng yêu, khiến máu nghịch ngợm trong cô lại sục sôi.
Lần họp mặt trước ức chế quá, lần này phải phục thù mới được.
Cô vừa cười tủm tỉm vừa tiến lại gần từ phía sau, nhưng Mekuru bất ngờ quay phắt lại.
"A."
"Utatane... Cô lại định giở trò gì nữa đúng không..."
Thất bại rồi. Bị lườm cháy mặt.
Cô nàng hừ mũi một cái đầy đắc thắng, rồi bồi thêm một câu:
"Tôi chán ngấy mấy trò đùa một màu của cô rồi. Biết thế thì chừa..."
──Tuy nhiên lúc này, Mekuru lại sơ hở đầy mình.
Đánh lén thất bại, nhưng chỉ cần bồi thêm nhát kiếm thứ hai là được.
Cô tung đòn phản công vào cô nàng đang đinh ninh là mình đã thắng.
"Đằng sau không được thì chơi đằng trước."
Cô cứ thế ôm chầm lấy Mekuru từ phía trước.
Vòng tay qua tấm lưng nhỏ bé, cô siết chặt cơ thể lại gần.
Đang định nói "Mekuru-chan mềm quá đi~", thì──
"OÁIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

"Chào buổi sáng. Ồ, mọi người đến đông đủ cả rồi nhỉ. Từ hôm nay nhờ mọi người giúp đỡ nhé."
Chúng tôi đang chào hỏi thì đã đến giờ, huấn luyện viên bước vào phòng.
Đó là một người phụ nữ trẻ trong bộ đồ thể thao năng động.
Sau màn tự giới thiệu ngắn gọn, cô ấy lập tức đi vào vấn đề.
"Vì có cả người mới nên tôi sẽ giải thích đơn giản. Trước tiên, mọi người phải nắm vững vũ đạo một cách hoàn hảo đã. Việc kết hợp ca hát sẽ tính sau. Chỉ nhảy thôi và vừa hát vừa nhảy là hai chuyện hoàn toàn khác nhau. Trước mắt cứ tập trung làm tốt động tác đã nào."
Nghe vậy, tất cả đồng thanh đáp: "Vâng ạ."
Huấn luyện viên gật đầu dứt khoát.
"Chúng ta cũng có lịch tập toàn thể, nên hãy bắt đầu từ bài hát chung của nhóm nhé. Đầu tiên là──"
Vừa xướng tên bài hát, huấn luyện viên vừa bắt đầu chuẩn bị.
Trong buổi Live lần này, ngoại trừ một bài duy nhất thì không có tiết mục đơn ca nào cả.
Chương trình chỉ bao gồm các bài hát theo Unit và bài hát chung do tất cả cùng trình bày.
Các buổi học (lesson) sẽ được chia theo Unit, nhưng dự kiến sẽ có vài buổi tập chung để khớp nhạc.
Cho đến buổi tập chung đó, chúng tôi buộc phải hoàn thiện bài hát tập thể ở một mức độ nhất định.
Bởi lẽ số ngày tất cả mọi người có thể tập hợp đông đủ là rất hạn chế.
Theo một nghĩa nào đó, buổi tập chung có thể coi là buổi báo cáo giữa kỳ.
Đó sẽ là lúc hai Unit đang tập luyện riêng biệt phải phô diễn xem mình đã tiến bộ đến đâu.
Tuyệt đối không thể thua Unit bên kia được.
Trong lúc tôi đang âm thầm lên dây cót tinh thần, Kazari bỗng cất giọng đầy lo lắng.
"Oa~, hồi hộp quá đi à. Em có làm tốt được không ta~, lo ghê á~."
Với Kazari, đây là tác phẩm ra mắt (debut) nên em ấy chẳng biết mô tê gì cả. Lo lắng cũng là điều dễ hiểu.
Tôi định lên tiếng động viên thì Mint đã mở lời trước.
Cô ấy ưỡn ngực, cười đắc ý.
"Không sao đâu, Ohana-san. Dù cô có thất bại thì chúng tôi cũng sẽ hỗ trợ cô mà."
"Ủa? Nhưng mà Mint-chan nè, mấy vụ Live thế này cậu cũng là lần đầu mà~?"
Bị hỏi vặn, gương mặt Mint cứng đờ.
Thấy cô ấy cứng họng, lần này Yumiko mới lên tiếng.
"Có gì bất an thì cứ nói ra là được mà. Ở đây có người thâm niên trong nghề, cũng có người từng có kinh nghiệm diễn Live rồi. Mọi người sẽ hỗ trợ nhau thôi. Tất nhiên là cả chị nữa."
"Đ, đúng, đó là điều tôi muốn nói đấy. Tôi cùng suy nghĩ với cô Utatane."
Thấy Mint bồi thêm vào, Kazari thốt lên "Hả~".
Đúng lúc đó, huấn luyện viên đã chuẩn bị xong, và buổi học đầu tiên bắt đầu──.
