Etoile Vio School is located at the outskirt surrounded with greenery. It's a school built to raise idol eggs, managed by Eldol Agency.

The idol eggs studying there are referred as "I-Chu".

Early afternoon. After they had finished a meeting with the Producer, F∞F's members, Aidou Seiya, Minato Kanata, and Mitsurugi Akira left the classroom.

"A~h! Producer's talk was so long, it made me felt so sleepy..."

"Geez. Producer-san have kindly explained it to us, so you shouldn't say something that it made you feel sleepy, Seiya."

The pink-haired boy with braided bangs, Minato Kanata, chided the spiky blond boy, Aidou Seiya.

"But, Kanata. I would always start getting sleepy if I'm just sitting still and listening like during classes!"

"Fufu. Seiya is always dozing off during classes after all."

The exotic-looking, dark skinned young man, Mitsurugi Akira, responded to Aidou Seiya's words while smiling elegantly.

"Ah, you saw?"

"Yes, clearly. Everyone in the third generation knew about it."

"Right~ Rabirabi also knew about it, right~?"

Minato Kanata began talking to Rabirabi, the rabbit doll he's carrying around.

"Aw, man~! But, aside from me there are many others who slept in the class too! Like, Leon, Mutsuki, and Raku! I'm not the only one, right?"

Aidou Seiya began mentioning the names of the other third generation members. The ones he spoke about are habitual criminals from sleeping during classes.

"Well, it's true that Seiya isn't the only one. But, they also get warned by the people in their group too, I think."

"Ahaha! Just like what Akira-kun and I am doing now!"

Realizing that he can't stood for himself anymore, Aidou Seiya voiced a small 'tsk' and pouted.

Then, sounds of footsteps could be heard coming from the hallway. Aidou Seiya turned his head to the direction of the noise. The one who came walking to their way was a boy with blond hair, just like Aidou Seiya's. The difference is that his hair seems to waving gently in the wind and he has a smart and composed look about him.

The moment he saw the boy, Aidou Seiya's face turned bright, like a dog who wanted to play with his master.

"Noah!!"

"Hello, Seiya. Good timing, I was looking for you. Good thing that I can find you here."

"You were looking for me?"

"Yes. I want to give this to you."

What Noah gave to Aidou Seiya is a photo of a horse.

"Aah! This fella, could it be that she's the baby horse that was born back then!?"

"That's right. She has grown to be a fine one, don't you think?"

"Awesome~! That little horse has grown so big. This is so awesome, I'm moved!"

Both Minato Kanata and Mitsurugi Akira couldn't fathom the reason why Aidou Seiya and Noah got so excited over the horse's picture.

"Noah-kun, does Seiya knows about that horse?"

Perhaps driven by curiosity, Minato Kanata tried to ask Noah.

"Yes. Back when Seiya was still in America, we were witnessing the birth of this horse together."

"That's right! We were watching the moment a baby horse was born into this world! Aww~ this makes me feel nostalgic..."

Aidou Seiya talked happily about the memories while remembering about it, with his eyes seemingly staring at faraway.

"Right, Seiya used to live in America before, huh? Have you two been good friends since those days?"

"Me and Noah? When we met, we were only watching each other from afar, but I recall we started getting along some time after that, right?"

"Yes. Just like what Seiya said. I doubt that we'll become good friends like this if it wasn't for Seiya's misunderstanding though."

"Nah, even without the misunderstanding, I'm sure that we'll end up becoming best friends!"

Aidou Seiya declared in a determined manner. This side of him is what made many kind of people become fond of him so quickly.

"Fufu. Thank you, Seiya."

Noah seemed so happy as a smile formed on his beautiful countenance.

Looking at Noah's smile reminded Seiya of the nostalgic memories. The memories of the time he spent with Noah, starting from when they were five until they reached ten years old. It was as if golden light came radiating from behind Noah's back.
