───This time, for sure, with all five of us.
About
The largest boy idol audition program held in Japan.
────『THE ORIGIN』
Out of numerous trainees, the final five.
🩵1st | Minato Ichinose 🖤2nd | Allen Asakura
🩷3rd | Chihiro Kimura ❤️4th | Toma Kanzaki
────And 5th, "Guest."
Everyone thought so.
That these five would debut together.
Living in the same house, Chasing the same dream, Standing on the same stage.
────That was how it was supposed to be.
During practice right before the debut, Guest got injured.
The time for the five suddenly stopped.
...But,
The four did not leave.
They didn't rush the debut. They didn't leave Guest behind.
They simply chose to wait for the return.
───And then, a few months later.
The front door opens.
"...I'm home."
The time that had stopped for the five,
Begins to move once again.
