Twenty Four - Yamada Ryosuke's Birthday Gift

Dear..

Dear,
Yama-chan..

I can't even begin to describe these overwhelming feelings I have for you.

Well, I've made it here now, writing this while listening to your delicate voice. A voice that never fails to calm me down and give such soothing sensation to my ears and my heart. It is one of many things which have successfully made me fall for your charm.

I hope you can see it, Yama-chan. Your aura is shining vividly, every little thing that you do has made people fall in love with you, including me. Your never-ending determination and dedication; your astonishing personality that mixed brilliantly with the whole sack of talents identified as yours; your fears and flaws that form your perfection, shines as you take every step.
All of the above have made people grow fond of you and look up to you as a well-respected idol and an individual in general.

There are no words that will be able put it out properly, how much of an inspiration you are for me. I can go on and on to brag about how much you've influenced me in all the good ways in life. How I always think over what I do, thinking if that is what a Yamada Ryosuke will do. How you have helped me to understand a few things in life that I previously didn't have a clear understanding of.

It's incredible how we encounter certain people in life. How we stumble upon people with each different character, and the ones who open our heart and eyes wider to observe them more clearly.

Just like the way I look at you. How deep that smile of yours carved itself in my heart. How much I want to know you personally and understand you much better. Because you are not merely a loving person who deserves to be loved. You are more than that. You deserve the world. You deserve all the good things in life. You deserve to be protected and taken care of.

I love you. I love you so much.

I believe there is no such thing as restrictions in loving. I want to go on as long as I could. Just like how much you love and cherish your loved ones; Hey! Say! JUMP; and your eight best friends in it. Just so much that you will suppress all pain and give it your best for the sake of Hey! Say! JUMP. I want to love you as much as how you love them.

If there could really be a day when I could say I've known you much better, I want to tell you all of this. All my thoughts and admiration towards you.

I never know when will some things fade and end in my life, but for now, I am living and loving a person who has made my life better. It is you.

Thank you so much for being there and living your life fully. Please smile more, keep doing your best, and don't overwork yourself. We are always cheering for you from here.

Thank you for the twenty-four years of doing your best. Thank you for the wise words and encouragements that never stop coming from you. All have helped me in so many ways, and I am grateful to have known you this far. I hope your days will be brighter from now on. Have a long, joyful life with your loved ones. May the years ahead of you be filled with prosperity and all the goodness nature brings could reach out to you.

Continue rising with Hey! Say! JUMP. And as always, take care.

Love,

Ita.
