Prologue

He died full of regrets.

He didn't have enough time to spend with her.

He didn't get to say goodbye.

He didn't get to tell her how much he loved her.

He hadn't had the chance to give her the silver ring he had kept for quite a while.

So God decided to give him another chance.

His eyes snapped open even before the alarm rang. It had already been a habit of him because the sound of his alarm clock is just too annoying to bear. However he just couldn't throw it away, because his brother especially picked it. He's a lot younger than him, which explains the cute chick-shaped alarm clock and the 'piyo-piyo' sound it makes.

Sometimes he wishes the clock would just stop ticking so he would have a reason to buy a new alarm clock, without having to hurt his brother's feelings. Guess he'll just have to wait for a while.

He slipped into a clean undershirt. He took his neatly folded uniform from the cupboard, a white shirt and a pair of black pants and wore them. He put on his watch, and looked at his reflection in the mirror from head to toe. No bed head. Perfect. He eyed the watch on his wrist; he still got some time to spare. He walked out his door to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth when suddenly he felt something heavy hugging his leg.

"Baashaa~"

"Oh dear, don't bother your big brother now. He's going to be late." He could hear his mother's voice from the kitchen. It's nothing new for his little brother to be like this. He had been so attached to him since he was born. When he started speaking, his first word was 'baashaa-' instead of 'mama' or 'papa' like other kids do. Perhaps it's another form of brother, because ever since then his brother always called him that.

God knows where that came from.

After he finished brushing his teeth, with his brother still hugging his leg, he walked to the dining table. Breakfast was served in front of him. Toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, and some cherry tomatoes on a clean white plate. Nothing new. He munched his breakfast silently, while being watched by his little brother. He sipped his cup of hot chocolate and walked to the front door, tying his shoelaces.

"I'm going."

"Bye-bye!" His brother said, as he watched him leaving the house. He took the usual bus to school and he always arrive fifteen minutes earlier than the bell. He sat quietly on his desk and read a book. Some people greeted him and he replies with a small hum.

It has always been like this everyday. Everything was so peaceful for him. A thirteen years old boy living in a peaceful home, running a peaceful routine everyday, it is something a lot of people have always dreamed of.

And why did he still feel incomplete?

It's like there's a missing puzzle piece in his life. An empty space that only a particular someone could fill. He had always felt that way since years ago but he just couldn't find it. Some people said that he's looking for his crush but he's only thirteen, not yet ripe enough to woo the ladies. Not like he ever considered it, just general knowledge.

The sound of the bell ringing pulled him back to reality. The homeroom teacher had already stepped inside the class, so as a good class leader he led the class to bow before they start the class. He's like a natural born leader. The first second the teacher asked for a candidate for class leader, everybody turned to face him. Yes, everybody. Even the teacher had his eyes on him. So, he volunteered and that's how he became everybody's iinchou.

"Class, I have something to tell you today. We have a transfer student from. Please come inside, miss."

Everybody started chattering, wondering if it might be a girl or a boy. Some even made bets in that instance. He couldn't care less about that. He just put his books neatly on the table along with his other stationaries like every other day.

When the transfer student stepped inside the class, everybody started making noises. He had no choice but to take a glance, and he could feel his heart stopped beating for a second. She had shoulder-length brown hair, hazel eyes, and a petite figure. She's not beautiful like models on fashion magazines or idols, but in his eyes she looks dazzling. She's someone totally new for him, but somehow she looked very familiar.

At that moment he felt complete, like he had found the missing piece from his life. That particular person is now standing before him and he just couldn't take his eyes off her. When their glances met, her face showed something similar to him. Emotion flooding to their heart, like something nostalgic just passed on their mind but it was so fast they couldn't catch the images clearly.

"Miss, you may introduce yourself." The teacher said. The eye contact broke that instance and the girl calmly composes herself to prepare for her introduction. She flashed a smile to the whole class before speaking.

"Hello everyone, nice to meet you. My name is…"

Petra.

To be continued.

Ah, so short! And I was enjoying myself writing the whole thing. Thank you very much for reading it until the very end (of this chapter, of course. I'm just worried that some of you would get tired of reading this story in the middle and just dropped the story ^ ^;; )

I got the inspiration just last night before I went to bed after I read a 4-koma manga about Levi and Eren being reincarnated as brothers. Now you know the identity of the 'little brother'. There, spoiler :| And… This is it.
