Chikako reads the letter

To Ryoha

Happy 20th Birthday. I'm very happy that I got to write a letter for this special occasion in my life. We met each other 6 years ago when we joined SKE48 at the same time. At that time, I thought you were a cool and beautiful person, and someone who always ran away from camera. It's not like we were very close. Last time we were close to other member instead. So we didn't interact much with each other. Even if someone asked me about our moment together, I can only think of the time when we performed Nageki no Figure together during Aitakatta theater stage performance.

After I was selected as a senbatsu member, only then we talked to each other properly, and take 2shot. Maybe about 2 years ago? Then we became very bery close this year. Before I realized, we are always next to each other. We talked about things we like, and some trivial things too. We also talked about SKE48, and also our future too.

You were already selected as a senbatsu member and joined various activities when you were still a research student. You lead the members from the same gen. And of course you battle against pressure at the frontline of SKE48. I'm sorry that I couldn't lend you a helping hand when you were  troubled and frustrated. Both of us were fighting at a different place, different things, became stronger and managed to come this far. Even if we couldn't see eye to eye in the past, we still admire each other. And we teach each other about the history of SKE48. You are such a precious person to me. Now we have good time together, share the same feelings, and I'm happy about it.

You ranked in undergirls at the general election this year. I'm happy for you. I even remembered I stand up and cheer for you too. I think that smile of yours managed to capture the heart of your fans. Once again, congratulations. And of course I'm happy that both of us managed to particate in the same drama play together.

We were surprised that we ranked at 4th and 5th in a game event. We were worried if we could actually pulled it off but then you laughed without thinking. You were not good in acting to begin with. Before and after the practice started, you were in pain and frustrated. "We are the one who unable to do it at all." Do you still remember you message me about that? And yet we still need to follow such harsh schedule. While everyone was practising for the drama play, we had MV shooting and some other events. We were the one who need practice the most and yet we couldn't join them for most of the time. You were so worried and cried over the phone. You were overflowing with uneasiness when watching the practising footage. You said you couldn't stop your tears in your mail too. We are not the kind that will cry in front of everyone. But when we are alone, we are frank to each other, and talk about everything. You who share the same shoes with me were the first one who I was willing to share my pain with I'm glad that you were part of the drama play. Thanks for staying next to me. We were frustrated and troubled by something during the practice. But maybe also thanks to that, we managed to meet with such wonderful companions and stuff.

During the final show, both of us cried badly. But you were the first one who felt lonely and cried during the rehearsal. I think "supporting" is the right word to describe our time during the drama play. Even if I was in pain, I had a good time because you were there for me. Once again, thanks.

After working hard and faced some hard time, what lies ahead was some touching moment and happiness that's waiting for us. Even if I knew about this, when my heart was going to break soon, you are someone that I want to stay with. From now on I want to stay with you too. Let's spend time to think about your dream and future. I will always be with you. I will appear in front of you whenever you are in pain. There's a dangerous side of me that only you can pull it out. I won't be hesitate to take a video of that. Please watch it whenever you feel very down.

This is getting lengthy~~~

Time goes on, and I'm happy that we became so close , close enough to write you a latter. Please take care of me from now on too. You are like a reliable boyfriend, a girlfriend who will spoiled herself. I like such lovely Ryoha very much. To Ryoha's fans, thanks for giving me the opportunity to write this letter. I will do it my way to make her happy. As for you all, please use your own way to make her happy. From now on, please take care of Ryoha. And Ryoha, work hard for your speech. I'm watching it through DMM.
