*Sigh*
How did I wake up an hour before my alarm was set to go off?

(I guess I'm just that anxious after hearing yesterday about how we get to perform at Idol Lovers.)

(To be fair, it's natural for me to be this excited since I've been dreaming of performing on that stage forever.)

(Plus, leaving home early means having time to practice for a bit on my own.)

Alright. I gotta make the most of today!

Alright, where should I begin today?
I'll just start with stretches, and then go over the choreography and...huh?

Spin and... Pose!
Hmm... No, that still doesn't seem right...

M-Minori?!

Huh?! A-Airi...?!

Wh-What are you doing here?!
You're way earlier than usual!

I could say the same thing!
Why are you here so early?!

U-Uhh... So, I...

I became so excited about getting to perform at Idol Lovers that I started having trouble sitting still...

I couldn't wait to start practicing for it, so I decided to come early.

Hehe. Then, I guess great minds think alike!

Wait, Airi, you too?

Yup! I mean, this is Idol Lovers we're talking about! We have every right to be excited!

Y-Yeah...!

The thing is, I was so excited that as soon as I got home, I immediately watched the Blu-ray of Idol Lovers from two years ago!

Two years ago...?
Great choice! That really was a good one!

Exactly!
In particular, VUz's performance!

Yeah, the way they danced that day was so cool...

Their routines also involved interacting with the crowd more than usual...! They really set the place on fire!

I know, right?!
They did it just for that day! My jaw was on the floor the entire time...!

And now, we get to perform on that stage...
It feels like a dream, but it's not.

Yeah...!

And you said that you've been dreaming of performing there since you were in QT, so I can't imagine how happy you are right now.

Yeah. I kept believing that I'd for sure get a chance to perform on that stage someday.

Especially when the other idols from my agency kept getting invited...

From your agency?

That started happening around the time I began appearing solo on TV.

In the end, my wish never came true because QT never got invited.

But the industry has taken notice of MORE MORE JUMP! So, I couldn't be happier about receiving this invite.

Airi...

Obviously, it's not the finish line... But it's still my dream to perform on that stage. So, you bet I'm going to give it all I have!

Yeah, I know what you mean!

Let's take all the joy we're feeling right now...

And use it to put on a performance not only worthy of Idol Lovers, but our best one yet!

Yeah!
