Day and Night. Even afternoon?

"What?" I gasped in disbelief. "Lord Noah and Teddy are friends before?"

Sam nodded, crossing his arms. "They are best friends."

Did I hear him correctly? How could…?

"Hundreds of years ago, I stayed in Whistlebird for quite some time. Noah is a child back then. I remember he used to play with a child from the Brown in secret. How time flies and now they look much older than me!" 

Sam shook his head dejectedly while clicking his tongue. I could not help my face but sport a conflicted look. 

Teddy and Noah didn't look older than Sam. They looked… the same age as him.

Sam is really old, huh? He's like my ancestor.

"But Anton had this firm belief that nobles should stay above others." 

"Is that the reason their friendship ended?" I wondered, shrugging my other thoughts away.

"Well, more or less. But they're friends until recently when Anton found out that Noah and Teddy were planning to change Whistlebird." Sam added.
