✧˚ · . Overwhelming crowd at the festival

The music festival was in full swing, and Ichika was eager to attend, driven by her deep passion for music and her desire to improve. She thought of someone who shared this same fervor—Nene. Without hesitation, she invited her, and after some consideration, Nene agreed. Although Nene didn’t often go out and had initially planned to decline, she decided to accept the invitation, as she had no other plans.

Now, both were at the festival, surrounded by a vibrant atmosphere. The sounds were loud, and the air was filled with the delicious aroma of food. The crowd was large, and Nene began to feel increasingly overwhelmed, her nervousness building. Ichika quickly noticed her discomfort and turned to her, concern in her eyes.

“Hey, are you alright?” she asked, her voice gentle.
