Let me tell you.366Please respect copyright.PENANAD3czMlwz04
Always plan realistically in life.366Please respect copyright.PENANAo0a6RQ960F
The real world is not a game where you can have a save point and start over when things go wrong.366Please respect copyright.PENANA1SeGmu20xh
Like how I chose to make and sell shoes366Please respect copyright.PENANACKUrPZdNit
because it’s what everyone needs every day.
366Please respect copyright.PENANA9FDXeELH6V
CINDER366Please respect copyright.PENANAVVMo3asZML
And that is what differentiates us.366Please respect copyright.PENANAdaNZmMgfaQ
Winning has always been secondary.366Please respect copyright.PENANAiaVmitRMzu
The thing that I love is dancing,366Please respect copyright.PENANAoIA5r9SARP

366Please respect copyright.PENANA0xElMGV7Hf
CINDER366Please respect copyright.PENANAA74djK4dzb
(optimistic)366Please respect copyright.PENANAkHmlm9pebJ
I disagree!366Please respect copyright.PENANAjnqiQgTKNN
What I am doing will neither deceive people nor tear apart the world.366Please respect copyright.PENANAVNJXM70Eet
Not everything in life has to be about being the best,366Please respect copyright.PENANAqllnp7XpKP
and what’s so great about being the best if you’re not even happy?
366Please respect copyright.PENANAKId25ClG38
SHOPKEEPER [SHOES]366Please respect copyright.PENANAcCVS8JLda5
(disbelieve)366Please respect copyright.PENANA2t6ZOCc6AI

Being the best brings you power and glory.
366Please respect copyright.PENANAXmfdtWDeDF
CINDER366Please respect copyright.PENANADj73MgRfBP
I am just a dancer,366Please respect copyright.PENANAivjyFoQO1R
I don’t need to change the world.

(profound)366Please respect copyright.PENANAYEJ9znVL9k
You’ll need this too.366Please respect copyright.PENANAqlqa1QQdAN
See this, this is what I said everyone needs shoes every day.366Please respect copyright.PENANAlVVUyd2zf4
You could get hurt walking around barefoot.
366Please respect copyright.PENANAnMq4Acstx8
ALYSSA took the shoe from SHOPKEEPER [SHOES] and smiled brightly at SHOPKEEPER [SHOES].
366Please respect copyright.PENANAIP8YcpMQeP
