Ten years ago from today―㌍
there was a very famous idol
by the name of “Mai Hidaka”.
All the boys wanted her―㌍
And all the girls dreamed
of being just like her.
Everyone knew her. She’s Japan’s
most legendary super idol. But……
I personally don’t really
like her that much at all.
After all, now she’s...
Mai
Ai, will you be doing that
rookie idol test tomorrow?
How did you know about that, mom?
Well, by chance, I noticed that you’d written about it
through just about every corner of your notebook.
By chance……Every corner……
Don’t go looking through my stuff without permission!
Geez mum, why are you always like this……
So, are you confident you’ll pass?
Yeah. So far, each challenge
has ended in failure, but……!
After all I’m,
the child of someone who used to be an idol,
so if I try my best I’m sure that soon……
Well, not at all, but… I’m sure
something good will happen someday.
After all, I’m the child of a former idol,
so surely, soon……
……………………
My my, what is it? Nothing to say?
……I’m not really confident.
I know that.
But, I’m the daughter of a former idol.
So eventually i’m sure that……
Does it really matter
that you’re my daughter?
Because Ai, isn’t your dancing and singing kinda bad?
You don’t have to be so frank…
Mom, what do you think?
Do you think I passed?
Who knows. If you’re lucky, you’ll pass
even if you’re taking a nap―㌍
But alternatively if things are bad, no matter how
good you sing it’d be useless wouldn’t it? Fufufu.
Well, I don’t understand.
As for mom, either way is fine.
Whether I pass, or fail.
But that aside, are your textbooks
for tomorrow’s lessons in you bag?
Ah, not yet……
Also, make sure to leave out your torn gym bloomers.
I’ll sew them up for you.
Okay……
My mom is the original super idol, now retired from the entertainment industry.
As for me, I’m just a junior high school student……
No matter how hard I try, I might not be
able to become like mum. But―㌍
Even if that’s so, I still want to
see my dreams come true!!
