It's been a while since we started exchanging letters. Neither of us has much free time to meet up, with our schedules being so different. But for some reason the letters never stopped.

Most of them were updates on our work progress; they were almost like diary entries we'd send the other. We'd sometimes send each other tickets to concerts our agencies hold, and now with all the new idols in both our agencies, we'd recently started inviting the other to concerts which we weren't a part of. The letter-sending itself was sort of a rivalry between us, or at least that's how it started. I was the one who started it all. We were both in a bit of a slump and I decided to just send her a ticket to our first concert with the new agency. Later I asked her for a ticket to her agency's arena-live concert and the letters went on and on.

As usual my father would bring in the mail. "That girl sent you another one" he'd say grinning and I'd nonchalantly take it up to my room and thoroughly read through it. He always referred to Haruka as 'that girl.' My guess is it's because he's never met her before.

Dear Amagase-kun, this is how her letters always started, I was given the opportunity to be in a TV series! Are you jealous? Of course, I have to pass the audition first... Ehehehe... Anyway, Makoto-chan told me that you weren't feeling well. She and Ijuuin-san are getting really close aren't they? Well, I hope you get well soon! I don't want my rival to be held back! So be sure to get plenty of rest so you get better ASAP! Your rival- Amami Haruka, and she'd scribble a little smiley face at the end of her signature.

I hated the fact that she still calls me by my last name, but we barely meet so I never really bothered to tell her to call me by my first. I read the letter again. I felt happy for her, then I shook my head, what are you thinking Touma? I had to surpass her somehow. It was bad enough we had to start from scratch when Haruka's agency was at its best. Sometimes I wondered if we'd ever be able to reach up to them, but secretly. I didn't want the others to think I'm some weakling.

I sat at my desk looking at a blank piece of paper thinking about what to write back to her. Dear Haruka, I started, but then I stopped. I had nothing to write! With being stuck inside for the past week, nothing interesting really happened. Suddenly my phone went off. I answered it without looking who was calling.

"Touma! I'm not disturbing you, am I?" I'd recognise that voice anywhere. It was Ken, the secretary at 315pro. "I know you're probably not going to like this, but we got a phone call that gave the younger boys an opportunity to work with a famous director."

"What does this have to do with me?" I actually wanted to say 'stop beating around the bush and get on with it'

"Well you're the only one free next week and I was hoping you could take the boys to the auditions." I thought for a second. These boys were younger than me. If he was referring to the boys in the Unit Mofumofuen, then they are all 9 years old, younger than any of the idols in Haruka's agency. This could be a big opportunity for our agency.

"Sure I'll do it" I said. Ken thanked me and hung up. At least now I had something to write back to Haruka.
