この間までのんびりと、レコード買ったりDJしたりレコード買ったりしてイギリスやベルギーを回ってたんだって。
のみの市で買ったサングラスとベルギーチョコでごきげんみたい。
At leisure lately, I traveled around the United Kingdom and Belgium and bought DJ records.
Liked the sunglasses I bought at a flea market and the Belgian chocolates.

いつもマイペースなreo★kun。20thパーティにギターを取り出す日がついにきた!?
おそろいのロゼット添えてお祝いソングなんて、めんどくさがってたわりにはノリノリじゃない~?
Always at my pace Reo★kun. At the 20th party the day to take out the guitar has come at last!?
A celebration song with rosettes and matching outfits, but not excited in spite of the high spirits~?

With you at your favorite café, floating on milk full of honey, or kissing,
Maybe that perfect future is waiting for us... I hope!
