The hedgehog and the man who borrowed the room ask the teacher to let them use the room to practice. The teacher tells them that he will be in his office when they finish practicing, and he reminds them to lock the room. The man who rented the room tells the teacher that he is not familiar with the teacher. He tells the girl that he has learned the basics of ballroom dancing. The girl wants to know how her mother tried to convince her to dance with her, but she gave up after only two minutes. She asks the teacher if she can dance with him at the dance party, but the teacher tells her that she is not allowed to go to the party to protect her feet. She tells the man that she has heard that people have asked her out, and she asks him to dance for her. She says that she used to be popular, but now everyone knows who she is. She wonders if there is a difference between her past and her present self, and if she has been asked out because she is an "adorable girl like you." The teacher says that even though she turned down many people, she was still asked because she believed that she had a chance.
