Kitahara-san
Thank you for your hardwork for the past 10 years
I'm really thankful that you have been so kind to me since I came to Tokyo.
There is always Kitahara-san memories in Tokyo.
Recalling various things,
I feel sad to think that I will not be on the same stage anymore (T_T)
The dress you wearing today & the words which you left to us were very wonderful.
I hope Rie-chan dreams come true ✨
