However… The reality is this. Though I had planned on getting married and resigning, by the time I realized it, I had been working for ten years…

I'm already past my days of dreaming...

Saying it like that... I think that giving up on yourself is a bad habit of adults...

Eh?

Hanaoka-san, you're still plenty young! And, you're c– cute…!

It's perfectly OK to embrace your dreams and hopes for the future!

...I see. I guess so.

I'm sorry I got so gloomy. Once you're over 30, it becomes easy to always be thinking about the past.

Ah! You're blaming your age again!

Yes, I'm sorry.
