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

'Use this chance to win her love.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAOij9KALWAw
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANA57oDGXFKfS
He heard his room door open and a elderly bearded man stepped in.
373Please respect copyright.PENANA6QFUVWzMA1
'Sungjin, it's time to go to school.', he said. 'Today is the homecoming game, you need to take those practices during school hours.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAX0Md4bpVP4
'Okay.', Sungjin replied as his father, the bearded man, left his room.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAGgq0kaESuH
'I think I'm in Junior year, not sure though. But all that matters is loving Aera and hopefully she 'll love me too.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAA4NtFJImVW
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAyn49hySrp6
'You never take this long to get ready. You're gonna be late for school!'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAXJy1lA8kKE
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANApIG8epOM69
While he was driving, his father constantly asked him what he was feeling about the game.
373Please respect copyright.PENANASIu7WnB04S
'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.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANA2y0b5shaGI
Sungjin only looked at the road as his father continued ranting on and on until they reached Sungjin's school.
373Please respect copyright.PENANA9gE638sPQQ
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANARwBuLnz4yk
'I expect a straight-A report card. Don't disappoint me, Sungjin.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANApfUJLENxle
'Okay, Father.', Sungjin nodded and got out of the car and closed the car door behind him.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAL3OLoqMswq
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAZcGOoDeatp
Dong-Guen Lim, a high school jock and the wide receiver of the high school football team.
373Please respect copyright.PENANA50E6lJIwVV
Jeong-Ho Pak, also a jock and the offensive guard of the football team.
373Please respect copyright.PENANADUTsuu2huM
They spotted Sungjin and walked towards him.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAgpsoZKMSe4
'Yo, Sungjin, there you are bro!', Dong-Guen said.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAYBMEDoSRTt
'Yeah, what took you so long man?' 'We didn't have time to flirt with girls.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAVoxLxefnjD
Sungjin went as red as a tomato. So high school boys behaved this way? Typical..
373Please respect copyright.PENANAJiGHsnAWRC
'Sorry, I was running late, that's all.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANA2e9WUUpv5B
Dong-Guen and Jeong-Ho glanced unamused faces at him, but calmed down.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAB7A2pURUlm
'We still have time to harass a girl, that is if you don't chicken out, Sungjin.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANACd4porlNyg
Sungjin jumped in surprise when Jeong-Ho elbowed him. 'Fine, I won't chicken out!!'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAStxFtVAYpB
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANALRxmoIZdgM
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAx37yn2PM3P
He decided to go talk to her after school right before the game starts.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAVpBH0UXD9Y
But for now he would go to class and try to go through it.
373Please respect copyright.PENANArpo3LHnkrs
He arrived at his class, Improv, and sat down at one of the chairs.
373Please respect copyright.PENANADCbYgWpd4s
His teacher just completely ignored him, unaware that he wasn't the Sungjin he used to be.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAUutW9iGvEq
A girl stepped into the room and Sungjin recognized her as Aera almost right away.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAA0XEFxo7yG
'Welcome, Aera.' 'You can sit next to Sungjin as we wait for the other students to arrive.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAjp192YP9Bh
Aera nodded and sat down at the desk next to mine. Soon, the other students rushed into the classroom.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAUwWxTZ7Ztc
'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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAiLdNvlbhCS
'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.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAYpwp77crRr
'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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAYbvdNmxWQt
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANARdaHkSsdIR
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAnCwVz8kGuG
She's going to play Juliet, this is my chance to confess to her!
373Please respect copyright.PENANAXHDUGQ5HLD
'We will use the rest of the class hour preparing for our roles. Students who are playing Romeo and Juliet, please stand up!'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAsTIoo3YZVa
Sungjin and Aera stood up, but the class was praising for Sungjin and criticizing Aera.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAxvnVIgsXnu
'Sungjin fits the role perfectly!', a girl with bangs said in awe. 'Don't you think, Cho-Hee?'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAU7NQT1M5yJ
'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!'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAhMfm4xS6T3
'It's perfectly fair, I chose Aera because she showed such excellence in her draft performances.'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAij92rh5XRq
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAi1MmpUth6P
'Sungjin is so charming right now! I bet when he plays Romeo, he'll be even more charming!', Ji-woo squealed.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAELcfjIwx3r
Soon after, the bell rang and everyone left the classroom in a flurry of papers and pens, leaving Sungjin and Aera standing awkwardly.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAZkmxSFBxoP
'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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAcEaj9wsP8S
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.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAoFM5vRjYNB
"You don't deserve your position, nasty girl!'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAw9PUNPsFh3
Aera was on the ground, tears slipping onto her cheeks as she tried to get up, only to be pushed down on the chair.
373Please respect copyright.PENANACltoeWuYbe
She cried so hard she almost lost her voice.
373Please respect copyright.PENANAICapfsnNmz
'Why?'
373Please respect copyright.PENANAM5FB7sNglN
A/N: If they only knew fate was gonna bring them though.
