'You have reincarnated to ten years before the death of Aera.'

'Use this chance to win her love.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAExFSdiM0dr
Sungjin woke up in what looked like his bedroom from high school. The walls were painted grey and there was a photo frame of him and his father in a football game.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAf9xK12Jrsz
He heard his room door open and a elderly bearded man stepped in.
390Please respect copyright.PENANACdlcT2UnMG
'Sungjin, it's time to go to school.', he said. 'Today is the homecoming game, you need to take those practices during school hours.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAKEmOB8croC
'Okay.', Sungjin replied as his father, the bearded man, left his room.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAtQIUJtCBqh
'I think I'm in Junior year, not sure though. But all that matters is loving Aera and hopefully she 'll love me too.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANALnAAeQPoQd
Sungjin did his normal morning routine and when he finished putting on his clothes and grabbed his backpack, Sungjin headed downstairs where his father was waiting impatiently and looking at his clock constantly.
390Please respect copyright.PENANApmB9HXs2D3
'You never take this long to get ready. You're gonna be late for school!'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAcfFe37PIl4
Sungjin followed his father as he grabbed the car keys and headed out the door towards the car. He opened the car and he and Sungjin went inside. He started the car and after a few seconds, pressed the brake and started driving to his school.
390Please respect copyright.PENANADsKs0eRiUD
While he was driving, his father constantly asked him what he was feeling about the game.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAO5VuPBQvpy
'You better play perfectly on that field, or else, you know. Our reputation matters here and I'm not about to be ridiculed by your poor playing.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAbfl2DboaFA
Sungjin only looked at the road as his father continued ranting on and on until they reached Sungjin's school.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAYVgQV6Fttz
Silver Creek Academy. The school where boys were 'superior' and girls were 'damsels in distress'. There were many people heading inside the school as it was almost time for first period to start. Sungjin's father parked near the school and Sungjin began unbuckling his seatbelt and opening the car door.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAwk0nuOtYIp
'I expect a straight-A report card. Don't disappoint me, Sungjin.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAzHFPoBUs3g
'Okay, Father.', Sungjin nodded and got out of the car and closed the car door behind him.
390Please respect copyright.PENANARrnbKWoxC0
He held a breath for a minute and then let go. This felt so new to him, maybe because he has to relive those ten miserable years. He started walking towards the entrance of the school gate when he recognized two people from his past.
390Please respect copyright.PENANABKueBombG8
Dong-Guen Lim, a high school jock and the wide receiver of the high school football team.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAHWPqaGtq5R
Jeong-Ho Pak, also a jock and the offensive guard of the football team.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAgps8xgv8xd
They spotted Sungjin and walked towards him.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAOILmRJykrk
'Yo, Sungjin, there you are bro!', Dong-Guen said.
390Please respect copyright.PENANApMEpPaX3TI
'Yeah, what took you so long man?' 'We didn't have time to flirt with girls.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANALiRQatVEAx
Sungjin went as red as a tomato. So high school boys behaved this way? Typical..
390Please respect copyright.PENANAx362FRiXLh
'Sorry, I was running late, that's all.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANARJejTn6Kgq
Dong-Guen and Jeong-Ho glanced unamused faces at him, but calmed down.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAlCq0I98KLx
'We still have time to harass a girl, that is if you don't chicken out, Sungjin.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANA1qhxHO19wU
Sungjin jumped in surprise when Jeong-Ho elbowed him. 'Fine, I won't chicken out!!'
390Please respect copyright.PENANATWmeXi4T1D
The school bell rang and the people had 5 minutes to get to class. Sungjin and his friends went separate ways, and Sungjin headed towards his first class.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAS0aeCcPBgR
Now all he had to do was go to class and hope that Aera was in his class. Speaking of Aera, Sungjin spotted her among the other girls in the locker area.
390Please respect copyright.PENANASglOhtT0ip
He decided to go talk to her after school right before the game starts.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAojlJi3jGYY
But for now he would go to class and try to go through it.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAXb7qoEYMcq
He arrived at his class, Improv, and sat down at one of the chairs.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA7stDBt0RL1
His teacher just completely ignored him, unaware that he wasn't the Sungjin he used to be.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA6rS6x7g6rb
A girl stepped into the room and Sungjin recognized her as Aera almost right away.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAI3YlrTrs6a
'Welcome, Aera.' 'You can sit next to Sungjin as we wait for the other students to arrive.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAPgIcxAvxjC
Aera nodded and sat down at the desk next to mine. Soon, the other students rushed into the classroom.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAsWHzKfOPoT
'Hello teacher.', a young redhead said while looking at her makeup mirror and applying red lipstick, sitting on one of the front desks near the teacher.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA7QZ3FWqEpW
'Hello class, as you all know tonight is Homecoming night. There will be a game along with a Homecoming dance. So I encourage you all to attend. But this is not will we be doing today.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANACqFNP01Was
'Today, I am going to hand out the roles of Romeo and Juliet.' The teacher went to her desk cabinet and took out the slips of paper. She closed the cabinet and handed out the slips of paper, one by one. She reached Sungjin's desk and gave him a slip of paper.
390Please respect copyright.PENANACTcEfIALR3
Sungjin looked at the paper and it was read that he would play Romeo. The teacher continued handing out the papers, row by row until she reached Aera.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAuBpfDh0Sml
She gave her the slip of paper and it read that Aera is going to play Juliet. Sungjin peeked at her slip of paper she was holding in her hands.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAlYdC0sZtl0
She's going to play Juliet, this is my chance to confess to her!
390Please respect copyright.PENANAx5Uyg9HtNr
'We will use the rest of the class hour preparing for our roles. Students who are playing Romeo and Juliet, please stand up!'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAL91BnphdfI
Sungjin and Aera stood up, but the class was praising for Sungjin and criticizing Aera.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAqColDMxXHG
'Sungjin fits the role perfectly!', a girl with bangs said in awe. 'Don't you think, Cho-Hee?'
390Please respect copyright.PENANA0rYjaV6aCB
'Ms.Lim, there must be something wrong with the slips of paper! I was supposed to be Juliet, not her!', the redhead named Cho-Hee yelled. 'It's not fair!'
390Please respect copyright.PENANALDBs1qqMwi
'It's perfectly fair, I chose Aera because she showed such excellence in her draft performances.'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAsqrhnxEFwk
Cho-Hee grunted and sat down angrily. Her friends, Soo-jin and Ji-woo comforted her but she pushed them away from her in disgust.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAc7yUAXHVFF
'Sungjin is so charming right now! I bet when he plays Romeo, he'll be even more charming!', Ji-woo squealed.
390Please respect copyright.PENANACXOnkbly9O
Soon after, the bell rang and everyone left the classroom in a flurry of papers and pens, leaving Sungjin and Aera standing awkwardly.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAkUjEOnqBtK
'What are you waiting for?' 'Go to your next class already!!', Ms.Lim said, irritated. Sungjin grabbed his backpack and left the room while secretly waiting for Aera near the classroom. He saw Aera leaving the classroom and decided to follow her to her next class.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAm7c5XSJd8b
He saw her go into a choir room and he was about to head towards his next class when he heard a couple of girls yelling in the choir room.
390Please respect copyright.PENANA3PgDTZubNp
"You don't deserve your position, nasty girl!'
390Please respect copyright.PENANALZF6q7kHvD
Aera was on the ground, tears slipping onto her cheeks as she tried to get up, only to be pushed down on the chair.
390Please respect copyright.PENANApfRPoFwufd
She cried so hard she almost lost her voice.
390Please respect copyright.PENANAbKe2JSzj4M
'Why?'
390Please respect copyright.PENANAF3ILryEUz4
A/N: If they only knew fate was gonna bring them though.
