The years had passed since Jonagold was born. However, on that day, Twilight came at full speed in front of the little school in Ponyville where Applejack was waiting for him.

- What’s going on, she asked the farmer, where is Jonagold ?

- He is in the classroom with his teacher, replied Applejack, they are waiting for us.

- It’s about his imaginary friends again, sighed Twilight, all foals have that, it’s not so bad !

- But he’s different, said his wife, you would know, if you were the most often…

- You know very well that I must lead a kingdom, explained Twilight, sighing, with papers to sort, orders to give…

-…and statifaires guards, added Applejack, exasperated.

This remark pissed off Twilight who caught Applejack with his magic !

- That’s why I don’t come back….she said, Your jealousy drives me crazy. First of all, there were your questions about Starlight…

-…. And I was right, shouted Applejack holding back his tears, he had something between you, something that broke our alchemy, that broke us.

Twilight let Applejack cry. She had made the mistake of not resisting Starlight’s advances, and Applejack had learned it at his expense.

- But I’ve already apologized for that ! Hurla Twilight, banging her hoof.

- But apologizing is not all, continued Applejack, you never put yourself in my place, what I could feel, when I eat alone at night or when you don’t come home for several days !

Twilight sighed and turned his back on his wife, who kept crying. After a deep breath, she turned around and said:

- We’re here for Jonagold…

Applejack wiped his tears with his hoof and advanced gently to the school door, followed at a distance by Twilight. Inside was Jonagold in the corner and Twist, the professor sitting at his desk.

- Oh, ladies! Please, sit down! said Twist, advancing towards them.

- What else is going on ? asked Applejack.

- Well, said the professor, Jonagold scares his comrades. He has a rather disturbing fascination with unicorns and their magic and refuses to be in contact with other creatures. In addition, he often speaks alone, he says that he has two friends: "Jelalousy" and "Dripe".

- But why is he punished ? asked Twilight, looking at his son in the corner.

- Well, hesitated Twist, he’s trying to break a classmate’s horn.

- How ? Applejack got mad, ready to yell at his son.

- Leave it alone, said Twilight, he is probably disturbed by the family situation.

Applejack suddenly turned to his wife and yelled:

- How dare you tell me that he’s probably disturbed ! You’re never there and you don’t even know how children grow up !

- You’re talking nonsense ! sighed Twilight.

- I’m talking nonsense, replied Applejack, you missed six years of birthdays ! Do you know that Lustre is passionate about painting ? That she had her first dance, where she waited for hours at the door, that you came to see how proud she was of her dress, that she had sewn with her aunt ! Oh and besides, you also know, probably, that it’s been three years since your son owns "his friends" and that he only swears by you and your magic !

Twilight looked down, because she didn’t know about it. Twist had taken Jonagold outside, while his mothers calmed down. After several minutes, Applejack went out and advanced towards the foal.

- You’re going to live in Canterlot for a while, she said.

- With pleasure, replied the boy, with a mocking smile.
