But Still, I Long For You [Shigengen]

Synopsis

“Why does it have to grow like this?”

My aunt’s whispered words in my ear—her emotional confession—remain etched in my memory, tinged with a certain kind of ecstasy.

I’m no longer cute. I’ve become so dirty I can’t even show myself.

I don’t remember when my aunt got married.

But even now, I can’t seem to open up to her husband.

I hesitated over whether I should bare my feelings this much.

But I think I just wanted to give it some form of expression.

Even if it had to be through means like these.

Yet, perhaps it’s precisely because of such expressive means that I can truly pour out my emotions.

Emotional expression without the drive of sexuality is nothing but shallow and trite.

You’d blush, wouldn’t you? Casually saying “I love you.”

Well, whatever.

It’s done now, so there’s no helping it.
