Mao: Coach, I wanted to win the dance competition so badly.
Coach: Everyone wanted to win, but you were all amazing.

Coach: Not at all. The winning team was simply too good today.
Mao: Mmm… I guess so. It’s just hard to accept this result.
Coach: That’s part and parcel of any sport.
Mao: You’re right, as always. Thanks, coach.
Coach: Don’t worry. Tomorrow’s another day.

Henry: But I’m behind all the other students in my class. I feel like a failure.
Miwa: Don’t be so hard on yourself. Everyone learns at their own pace.
Henry: I wish I could learn faster.
Miwa: Hey, you need a break. Let’s get a cup of coffee at the cafe.
