Remarks about the translation
Kono toki o tada hitasura machi-tsuzuketa. Yôyaku kimi to aeta na...

Literally
I only continued to wait for this time. Finally, I am able to meet you, grrr...

I also tried to capture the feeling of the final particle "na" by repeating the "At long last" with the "finally"

Mihairu,

"Estive esperando" means that I was waiting for something more time than "estava esperando". "Estive" is "more past" than "estava".

Technically, "estava" is imperfect past tense and "estive" is perfect past tense.

Hope it helps,
