It was midnight, and I was out at my stall when the cops took me to the station. They checked my profile and looked at me weirdly. "You're a Greatpeak graduate. What are you doing setting up shop in a bazaar?" That was odd. I went through the profile and realized that yes, while the student's ID was mine, the photo was not. I knew the guy in the photo. Josiah Ferguson. I had no idea I got accepted into Greatpeak University twenty years ago. Eventually, I was released, but I had no idea how I trudged back home. Then, I heard Hazel Quinley, my wife, talking to someone on the phone. "I won't let Michael get in your way, Josiah. Just go abroad." So that's it! It was her! My wife helped Josiah take what was supposed to be mine! I was sick. I wanted to throw up. I wanted to confront her and Josiah, but then she stabbed me in the back, and I died. "I'm sorry, Michael. I can't let you ruin Josiah's future." And then I woke up. I was taken back in time to my high school days. Our homeroom was giving out college application forms. This time, things would be different. This time, I would take back what was rightfully mine!

Reborn: Love and Let Go Chapter 9 Justice
The summer holidays came, and I got a part-time job to support myself.Maybe I was seeing things, but I swear someone was keeping an eye on me. Every time I turned around, however, I saw nothing but air. Eventually, I shrugged it off.I would get paid every two weeks, and to my surprise, there was an extra 1,000 in my pay. One thousand was nothing to laugh at, especially in this era.The boss said, "It's a reward. We made some big sales lately."I accepted the gift happily.My shift was over, and I was going to get some chicken drumsticks for myself. To my astonishment, the shop owner was holding a buy-one-get-three-free promotion. 'Today's my lucky day, I guess,' I thought to myself.I got my reward, and when it was the turn of the guy behind me, the shop owner only gave him one drumstick. The guy would not stand for this. "Hey, you gave him four drumsticks! You have a promotion going on, remember?"The shop owner looked at me. I noticed his stiff look. "The promotion's over ju
Reborn: Love and Let Go Chapter 8 Verdict
The scandal made its way to the news, of course. The public did not take it kindly, and people cursed the Quinleys every day. Though the Internet was still in its infancy here, it still existed, and the court of public opinion could kill them.Hazel's father and Josiah's verdict hadn't been decided just yet, but I heaved a sigh of relief. Things were nearing its end.Or so I thought.Hazel came to me again. I was going grocery shopping, but she stopped me. She looked haggard, and her head hung low, but she wouldn't talk.I clutched my butterfly knife tightly, alarm bells ringing in my head. "What do you want?"She raised her head, her eyes meeting mine. There was a lot in her gaze. Hoarsely, she said, "Michael…"I said nothing. I assumed she wanted me to forgive Josiah and her father.And then she asked, "You've been reborn as well, haven't you?"Shocked and shaken, I started running."I-I won't hurt you!" said Hazel quickly.I stopped in my tracks and stared at her. "I know
Reborn: Love and Let Go Chapter 7 Sad Story
I told the cops everything and left the station. Hazel followed me, but she did not look lively. No, she looked dead, and she called out to me, "Michael."I turned around."I'm sorry. Are you happy now?" She wanted to cry, but tears would not come to her.I looked at her. She was still alive, so I shook my head. "Not unless you die."Hazel looked hurt. It was probably an act. I had no idea why she would put on that mask even now. We were past the point of pretending."I loved you, Michael. I've been keeping an eye on you since about a year ago."Oh, ew. That was just nauseating. I would not stand for that lie. "Because you knew I would score well in the exam."Hazel shook her head, crying. "No, I did love you. You'd always get the food from the last stall in the cafeteria, and you'd always look out the window while you read. I know a lot about you. Your habits, too."Ah, right. She did know me intimately in my past life.So why did she kill me? There was no way she would do th

Josiah and Hazel came out as well, and Hazel panicked the moment she saw me.I raised my voice, "Where's your acceptance letter, Josiah?"The cops being here hinted that something was wrong. "The letter? I didn't get any acceptance letter."My eyes were still on him. "No way."The officer patted my back. She said, "It's okay, Michael. We'll handle this."Hazel's father stood up straighter. "If you want to accuse me of stealing your spot, Michael, at least give us proof."I wiped my tears away. "The acceptance letter is proof." My ID number was printed on it. The Internet was not as advanced twenty years ago, or none of this would've happened.Josiah paled and looked at Hazel, but she hung her head low and kept her silence.The officer went inside and asked, "Can you show me your acceptance letter, Mr. Ferguson?"Ferguson was starting to get anxious. "You do not have the right to see that."The officer grinned and showed him her police ID.That made him cry. "What do I do, Da
Reborn: Love and Let Go Chapter 5 Accusation
Hazel hung up. "You're reading too much into it."She was still trying to play dumb even now? Unbelievable. I slapped her. "How low can you go, Quinley? You're going to steal everything I worked for just to cheer Josiah up? Honestly, you disgust me!"Hazel went red, but her eyes never left me. "This is a misunderstanding, Michael."I answered, "I applied for Greatpeak, not the University of Law. Lover boy is not going to be a lawyer."That made Hazel panic. She gripped my shoulders. "Please, I beg you. Just give your spot to him. I'll give you anything. Anything!"I flung her hands off me and icily answered, "Ten billion, then.""What?""Ten billion dollars, and he can have my spot."Hazel was stunned, and I laughed. "If you can't afford my price, don't make a promise you can't keep. You have no shame, do you?"Hazel didn't care about my insults anymore. She said, "His parents died saving my life! I owe him!"I shoved her away and raised my voice, "That's your problem! Don't
Reborn: Love and Let Go Chapter 4 Expose
That drove Josiah mad, and he lunged at me, but Hazel blurted, "Calm down, Josiah. Just hold it in."Josiah calmed down, but if looks could kill, he would've murdered me right there and then. "This isn't over, Michael! You'll pay for this!"I smiled, took my seat, and dug in. The people around us were giving me stares, but I paid them no mind. I told Hazel to peel the prawns for me, and she did as she was told.Josiah couldn't take it anymore. He excused himself to the bathroom, and Hazel left not too long after.Someone asked, "Say, how'd you get the school's madonna to only have eyes for you?"I looked at him. "She'd only have eyes for you, too, if you aced your entrance exam."The guy smiled sheepishly, but I knew he didn't buy that story. Sometimes I wondered if Hazel would sacrifice herself and date someone like me if I refused her request to fill in my application.I put my fork down and went to the bathroom.Inside, Josiah was holding Hazel's hand, crying his eyes out.
