[Sano watches Jirou's expression as he admits that, smiling into himself. To love someone so devotedly... so dearly... He thinks of Ran and wonders, if he can have something like that as well. He sighs, just as the dance fades and they stop and maybe there's a hint of longing in it.]

I must say I'm envious. No matter how painful it is, to love someone like that, even if just once in your life... It's the greatest treasure granted to all sensible beings.

[He shakes his head.]

As I said, I don't mind it. I'm your first dance after her, so that makes me a little curious.

[He adds with a smirk, hoping to restore the light mood again.]

And sometimes it's just good to talk. Even if it hurts.
