Arashi is Very Special
It has been a week since the announcement of the hiatus, right? How am I? How are the others? But, the most important is, how is Arashi?
Watching them in Mstat yesterday, I could feel that they are also sad, right? There are pictures circling around in Twitter showing how Nino was tearing. But, they kept on smiling and gave the best performance as they always do. And this is what made me always always adore them.
I have been a part of other fandom as well. In fact, one of my favorite fandom is going to end this year. The Big Bang Theory. But, it is different than hearing the announcement of the hiatus from Arashi. It was like a part of my life has been taken away from me. They had been a part of my life for 7 years now.
I still remember when I first know them. Nino's 1992*4##111 was the song I offered a friend to reconcile with her. It was such a petty story but I had a fight with her not long before I know Arashi. I asked her to give me a space to think about our friendship so we didn't talk for a while. Then, I became Arashian and was watching Nino's performance in the concert when she suddenly texted me. The message started with her apologizing if the sudden message disturbed me. Of course, I ignored her at first but looking at the message at that time while seeing Nino's ridiculous costume in the performance somehow made me feel lighter. So, I replied the message saying that she was indeed disturbing me when I was watching my new boyfriend. Somehow, we ended up talking again and I always think that the reason for our reconciliation was the song. If she texted me while I was doing something else, maybe we will never talk again.
I remember those nights I spent studying while listening to their songs. I still remember how hard it was for me to restrain myself from watching their concert when the DVD arrived a day before my last day of exam. But, what I remembered the most is how 'Bittersweet' was released when I had my break-up. It wasn't really a break up considering it was one-sided. I never confessed but I never regret letting him go. Oh yeah, I remembered his code name now when I was talking about him with other friends. It was 'Nino' because he was short and pale, just like my sweet little Nino. But, of course, Nino was way better than him. I used to think that I wanted to use a time machine to warn my past self not to fall in love with my crush but now, if I have a time machine, I want to use it to travel to the future when Arashi finally make a comeback.
Arashi had impacted me in the way that my other fandom won't affect me. I know I wasn't a good writer but somehow writing the fanfics made me feel like I accomplished my small ambition. I don't know if anyone is waiting for my fanfic but right now I'm working on a couple of fanfics including Magika. But, I will only post them when I'm ready. Still need to figure out the ending. Hopefully, I can finish Magika this year (Wonder how many times I make this resolution).
I have plenty of things I want them to do before hiatus. One, I want them to switch solo. I want Ohno to sing Niji. Two, I want them to have a concert where they sang ALL their songs. Three, please make international tour.
But, it's okay. Just do whatever you have planned. I don't want to put any pressure on you. I will happily accept anything you give.
I love you, Arashi! Each one of you! Thank you for everything !
