Whispering You a Love Song ch43: A Song I Want to Reach You

p1
>Could I
>have a little of your time?

>Y'see,
>I've been thinking a lot since then.

p2
>But
>I haven't been able to come up with an answer to yesterday.
>I don't even know what the right answer is.

>Even so,
>I want you to listen.

>These are my true feelings
>that I want to convey to you.

p3
>Please.
>This is my final selfish request.

p4
>>Fill it with as many wishes as possible.

p5
>I've been thinking back on a lot of things.
>Our first meeting.
>Playing in the band together.

>I really meant what I told you yesterday.

>The time I spent with you
>was fun.

p6
>The memories of us being together,
>every last
>one of them,
>were fun.

>...But,

>that alone isn't enough, isn't it?
>I realised that after what you said yesterday.

p7
>That's why
>I tried thinking
>about whether the feelings I have now
>are, as you thought,
>the same as they were back then.
>And what I found was...

p8
>they're different.

>Without even realising,
>I had
>changed.

p9
>The precious feelings still remain,
>but
>the meaning behind them after completely different to back then.

p10
>When I realised that,
>it felt like our relationship, which had remained frozen since that day,
>might be taking one a new shape.

p11
>If I'm not the person you thought I was
>and you're not the person I thought you were,
>maybe we could start over again right now?

p12
>I'm not sure what'll become of us in the future, though.

>We may end up fighting again.

>The next time that happens, there may be nothing that can be done to fix it.

p13
>Even so...

>I don't want to repeat the regret I felt
>from not stopping you back then.

p14-15
>So I'll accept
>what you said yesterday
>and I'll say it once again.

>I want...

>to be together
>with you, Shiho.

p16
>That's pretty much everything
>that I wanted to say.

>This is our final song.
>Please listen.

p17
>Hey, guys. Sorry for always causing you trouble,
>but about the last song...

p18
>Could we play this song
>that Shiho loved?
>>Gold Sparrow

>I feel like everyone's been avoiding it
>ever since Shiho dropped out.

>But I want to make things clear
>without turning a blind eye.
>I want to face Shiho
>for the sake of myself and SS Girls going forward.

p19
>Tachibana-san and Maa-chan are okay with it, but...

>I know the song.
>It won't be perfect, but I should be able to manage.
>Let's give it a try with the current SS.

>Really!?
>Thank...
>On one condition.

p20
>Mizuguchi,
>you're
>gonna sing the vocals.

>Eh?

>It's a precious song.
>You shouldn't leave it to me.

>But
>you're a better singer...

>It's not a matter of good or bad, is it?

p21
>If it's your voice, Mizuguchi,
>it's sure to reach her.

p22
>Shiho...
>Please.

p23
>Let this reach you...!

p24
>What
>are you doing?

>This song.
>I bet you told them to do it at the last minute, didn't you?
>It's nowhere near the perfection of the previous song.

>Or rather,
>why are you the one singing it?
>Your voice is barely coming out.

p25
>What is this?
>You think hearing a nostalgic song
>is gonna make me cry of something?

>How laughable.

p26
>You've got a lot of nerve
>saying you want us to be together.

>Being with someone because they expressed their pathetic feelings after all this time
>is something only an idiot would do.

p27
>I don't give a damn about how the current you
>feels about Asanagi-san.

>That's right.

>I already decided
>to end things with you.

p28-29
>That's right...
>I made that decision.

p30
>Let's put a proper end to this.
>This is fine.

>Shiho-senpai.

>That's not the look of someone
>who's okay with this!

p31
>No.
>You're wrong.
>This is fine.
>This is...

p33
>Kyou...
>I...

p34
>You're right...

>...Thanks.

p38-39
>That's all from us!
>We were the SS...

>YOU AKI-DIOT!

>Saying all of this stupid stuff on your own!
>Whaddaya mean you wanna be together with me!?

p40
>Shiho...

>...Honestly.

p41
>Don't blame me if you end up regretting it, okay?

[merge p44-45]

p48
>That's all from us!
>We were the SS Girls!
