Liam graduated from Westfield College two years ago, but the regrets never stopped haunting him. The fight he should have won. The reputation he never built. The emotions he locked away. The boy he refused to acknowledge. When a mysterious god offers him a second chance, Liam wakes up back in Class 4—eighteen years old again, lying in the same bunk bed at Ashford Hostel where it all began. Armed with years of experience and the confidence he lacked before, Liam is determined to rewrite his story. No more hesitation. No more living passively. No more running from who he truly is. But changing the past isn’t just about making different choices. It’s about confronting the moments that shaped him—the fight with Franklyn that defined his reputation, the friendships he took for granted, and most importantly, Oliver Mason, the platinum-haired junior who will one day mean everything to him. In the original timeline, Mason became Liam’s school son when he reached Class 1. Their bond grew deeper than any mentorship should, and Mason fell in love. But Liam, terrified of his own feelings, locked his heart away and focused only on their roles as school father and son. It was a regret that haunted him long after graduation. Now, Liam has asked the god for one impossible gift: for Mason to slowly regain memories of their future together. But Mason is still Class 0, and those memories won’t fully return for six months to a year. Until then, Liam must navigate the delicate balance of protecting Mason from afar, building his reputation for Class 5, and learning to accept the truth he spent his first life denying. This is a story about second chances, self-discovery, and finding the courage to live authentically. In a world of hostel hierarchies, football matches, brutal roasting sessions, and late-night gisting, Liam will learn that the hardest fight isn’t against others—it’s against yourself. A slow-burn BL novel set in a boarding school, told through internal monologue, slice-of-life moments, and the bittersweet journey of a boy learning to embrace who he’s always been.
