Waiting for That Day to Come/Side Story 2

From Sekaipedia
Street SEKAI
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Alright, you wanna go to MEIKO's then?
じゃ、今日もメイコさんのとこに行くか
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
Sure... Hm? The Open sign's not up?
ああ。……ん? 『open』の看板が出てない
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Huh. But the lights are on. Let's go take a look.
ほんとだ。でも、明かりはついてるな。 ちょっとのぞいてみっか
Crase Cafe
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Hello.
こんちわ
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Hm?
……ん?
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(The music's different from usual... This is a classical piece...)
(BGM……なんかいつもと違うっつーか、 これ、クラシックの曲、だよな……)
MEIKO (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
MEIKO
Oh, Akito, Toya! Welcome!
あら、彰人くんに冬弥くん。 いらっしゃい
Hatsune Miku (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
Miku
You came just at the right time. Would you like to join our listening party?
ちょうどいいところに来たね。 キミ達も鑑賞会に参加してく?
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Listening party...?
鑑賞会?
Kagamine Rin (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
Rin
Heya, Toya! Long time no see!
やっほー、冬弥くん! あの日以来だねー
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
It has been a while.
そうだな
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Since when exactly...?
あの日……?
MEIKO (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
MEIKO
Since the last time Toya came. He brought this CD and we all listened to it together.
ああ。みんなでこのCDを聴いた時のことね
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Solo Piano Performance by Harumichi Aoyagi... Wait a second!
……『ピアノソロ 青柳春道』……って、これ!
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
Yes, it's a recording of my dad's concert.
ああ。父さんのピアノソロコンサートのものだ
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
The day after the event, we didn't have practice and had nothing to do.
あのイベントの次の日、 練習もなくて暇を持て余してしまってな
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
I found it while I was looking through my CD collection. I brought it here and listened to it together with MEIKO, Rin and Len.
たまたましまいこんでいたこのCDを見つけて、 ここでメイコさんやリンやレンと聴いたんだ
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Ah...
そうか……
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(He used to wince whenever someone even hinted at classical music until just recently...)
(ちょっと前まではクラシックって言葉を聞くだけでも 居心地悪そうにしてた癖に……)
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(But I guess he's really over that all now.)
(本当に、吹っ切れたってことだな)
MEIKO (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
MEIKO
Since you're here, why not stay and have a listen?
せっかく来てくれたんだし、 ふたりもこのまま聴いていったら?
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Sure, sounds good.
じゃ、そうします
Shinonome Akito
Akito
But it feels kind of strange. You played jazz in the background sometimes, but never classical...
けど、妙な感じだよな。 ジャズとかはたまに流れてたけど、 この店でクラシックが流れてるなんて
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
You're right. Part of the reason I was able to appreciate this CD may've been this cafe's peaceful atmosphere.
そうだな。だが……この場所だから、 俺は素直な気持ちでこれを聴けたような気がするんだ
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Yeah, it does feel like you're at home here...
……ああ。 なんか知らねえけど、この店にいると安心するしな
Kagamine Rin (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
Rin
Oh, another piece just started! Hm... What's this one called?
……あ、次の曲が始まった! えっと……この曲なんだったっけ?
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Wait... I've heard this one somewhere before...
これは……オレも聴いたことあるな
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
It's a suite by Modest Mussorgsky called Pictures at an Exhibition.
モデスト・ムソルグスキーの『展覧会の絵』だな
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Right, we listened to it in music class. We watched a video of it being performed by an orchestra too, I think...
あー、音楽の授業で聴いた……つーか、 オーケストラが演奏してるとこ映像で見た気がする
Kagamine Len (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
Len
You think? Sounds like you weren't paying attention...
気がするって。 もしかしてー、彰人サボってたの?
Shinonome Akito
Akito
I gave that thing five whole minutes... But that was my limit...
頭の5分くらいはちゃんと聴いてた……はずだ。 そのあとは、うとうとしてたかもな……
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
Still, I don't blame you. The videos they show in class are pretty low quality and don't do orchestras, or anything for that matter, much justice.
そうなるのも仕方がない。学校の映像資料では、 オーケストラの迫力も音質も、伝わりづらいからな
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
Besides, this suite was written for the piano, not for an orchestra.
それに、この曲はもともとピアノ組曲だからな
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Oh, really...
ふーん……
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(It's being played by just one guy on one instrument, but it has richness and an intensity to it. I'm getting goosebumps...)
(けど、ピアノのソロでこの音の厚み……迫力……。 ……聴いてて鳥肌が立つ)
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(You can tell he's a world-class pianist... Man, Toya's dad's a legit pro.)
(これが、世界で活躍してるプロの演奏……。 くそっ、ハンパねえな)
Shinonome Akito
Akito
...
…………
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
Hm? What is it, Akito?
ん? どうした?
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Just realizing that you've been exposed to next-level music ever since you were a little kid... Or maybe even since you were a baby.
あー、冬弥は物心ついた時から……いや、 下手するともっと前から、 このすげえ演奏を聴いてたのかって思ってな
Shinonome Akito
Akito
It's no wonder your ears are this good.
これだけいい音聴いてれば、人並み外れた耳にもなるよな
Aoyagi Toya
Toya
I guess I should thank my dad for that.
そこは、父さんに感謝しないとな
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Yeah...
だな
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(Since Toya stopped stressing about his dad, we're all performing better and really getting to polish our music.)
(冬弥が吹っ切れてから、全員調子が上がってきてるし、 チームとしての歌にも磨きがかかってる)
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(If we keep this up, we're gonna go places...)
(このままいけば、オレ達はもっともっと上を目指せる)
Hatsune Miku (Vivid BAD SQUAD)
Miku
You look like you're in a good mood.
なんだか嬉しそうだね
Shinonome Akito
Akito
Not just in a good mood. I feel driven.
嬉しいっつーか、ワクワクはしてるかもな
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(Toya really went through a growth spurt after what he dealt with...)
(冬弥は今回のことで確実に成長した)
Shinonome Akito
Akito
(As his partner, I can't fall behind!)
(だったら相棒として、オレも負けていられねえからな!)
