And⦠I want to say thank you to my friends, who cheered me on quietly for a long time. Even if you donât say anything, I can feel your warm gaze and know your true feelings.â
She concluded, âThank you, I love you. I will rest deeply for a brief time and return with even more energy! (I had a bad cold so⦠Iâm really sorry that my voice wasnât very good during the final episode TT).â
