Takano: Ms.Celeina, which song would you like?

Celeina: “Ito” by Miyuki Nakajima caught my attention, so I would like to request this one.

Takano: You really have a wonderful guitar and singing voice. It was a luxury to be able to listen to them from this distance.

Celeina: The classical guitar tone and vibrato in your voice really worked well.

Paris: Thank you very much.

Celeina: Today, Paris-san is wearing a jacket and bow tie, which matches the atmosphere very well. Do you usually wear this outfit when you go to the Nagashi?
