Dear Stella,
Happy graduation.
I regret writing this letter. I didn’t want to do it.
We’ve gone through a lot together during your time in JKT48, in activities both related to and outside JKT48. I hope they’ll become valuable experiences and precious memories. I hope you’ll keep in your heart everything that was good.
You used to be kind of antisocial, right? It was hard for you to get close to everyone. But as time passed, you became more mature and could get along with a lot of people.
I’m glad I got to know you and became your friend, even though we also often disagreed. It’s hard to put all my feelings into words because I think it’ll be very long.
My point is that in your final [theater] shows in JKT48, every member tried to perform her best for you. Everyone who has ever supported you also did so in the best way they could. Everyone who came to the theater today didn’t come just to watch the last [Aturan Anti Cinta] show, but also to watch your last performance.
Don’t forget us, okay? Everyone here loves you, and we’ll always support you.
That’s all I can say for now. We wish you the best from here on out! Come visit the theater every now and then.
Love you.
Melody
ステラへ
卒業おめでとう。
この手紙。。。実は後悔している。書きたくなかったんだ。
いろいろあったよね。JKT48としての活動の中でも、その他の活動でも。
全部が貴重な経験で思い出になりますように。
いい事をすべて心に留めていてくれたら嬉しいな。
昔はあまり社交的じゃなかったよね？みんなに近づくのが難しくて。
でも時間が経つにつれて、もっと大人になってみんなと仲良くできたね。
何回か意見の不一致があったけど、ステラに出会えて、友達になれてよかったと思う。
全部の気持ちを言葉にするとかなり長くなってしまうから難しいけど。。
今言いたいことは、今日の最後の公演にメンバーのみんながステラの為に
自分が出せるベストなパフォーマンスを出したと思う。今まで応援してくれていた
皆さんもできるだけエールを送ってくれた。今日の公演を見に来てくれたファンの方も、
「恋愛禁止条例」の千秋楽だけじゃなくて、ステラの最後の公演を見に来てくれたんだ。
私達を忘れないでね。ここのみんながステラのことが大好きで、ずっとずっと応援するから。。
これからも活躍を祈っているよ！たまに劇場に遊びに来てね。。。
愛しているよ！

[…] After performing the last song (“RIVER”), the crying began. Melody came from backstage bringing a bouquet of roses for Stella, then read a letter written by herself. “Look at all those people. They didn’t just come here to watch the show. They are all here to give their last support to you as a JKT48 member. So, don’t forget all of us [fans and members]. We all love you and will always support you. After all this, I wish all the best for you, and I hope you can get all the success you deserved,” said Melody in her letter. […]
