1 How it began

"Kuoh academy just announce they will be open for both female and male students this year."

Yu sighed and turned off the TV. He walked toward the veranda of his room. He looked at the outside and caught in flashback.

"It has been 15 years, huh?" Yu thought, while looking at the scenery in front of him. He felt it was quite long since he had been living in this world for 15 years. He was baffled when he first meets GOD

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gabriel Revaldi, The epitome of normal. He graduated from college, he bounced around for a few years and finally found a stable job to work in for the rest of his life.

He didn't have any exciting hobbies. He spent most of his time reading or delving into a various fictional world.

He played some games, read some books, and watched some anime. Any medium that created a fantastical world, he enjoyed them immensely.

Despite everything, he just lived a healthy, quiet life. He wasn't a paragon of justice, but he always polite and tried help if a situation arose. That might have been one of the reasons he died.

The neighbor next to him had gotten out of an abusive relationship. She had moved next to his apartment to get away from her previous boyfriend, and Gabriel tried to lend a hand when she needed help. She hesitant at first but gradually came to accept the kindness of a stranger.

He would sometime help her cook dinner when he found out she can't cook.

He didn't develop anything past, maybe a good impression from the girl. He is merely helping a poor girl when she down on her luck. Though, that's not how her previous ex-boyfriend saw things.

The ex-boyfriend was not entirely stable-mentally. He lost his cool when he figured out where his 'girlfriend' lived and was 'cheating' on him with the neighbor.

It's incredible how easy it is to cause a gas explosion.

Gabriel felt nothing as the explosion consumed the apartment complex.

When he 'woke up,' he was a bit confused.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He was in a room, no doors or windows. In the middle of the room sat a chair and table.

As he was lost in thought for a moment, a man suddenly appeared at the opposite end of the table sitting on a newly formed chair.

"Are you going to stand there forever, or will you join me?" He said, gesturing at the empty chair.

Gabriel did not feel tense in the situation. He didn't feel afraid, just a little bit of confusion.

"You have some questions, yes?" The man asked.

"How do I address you?" Gabriel asked

"Oh?" The man said in surprise.

He expected the boy to freak out and demand some answer, yet hew as being polite and trying to hold a conversation.

"You can call me anything you want, but I prefer Father" 'Father' Answered

It was a decent fitting pseudo name, he wore a white robe and had an oddly fatherly aura around him

Gabriel just observed the man for a few moments.

"You're not going to start screaming and ranting about the situation you're in?" 'Father' asked in a bit of surprise

"Part of me want to…. But another part of me accept the situation I'm in" Gabriel explained

After a moment of silence, 'father' closed his eyes and began to laugh. It was an honest laugh.

"What's so funny?" Gabriel asked in interest

"You are, I never meet someone who died and met me in person, not freak out or demand me for an answer or bring them back to the living world." 'Father' explained

"Meet you in person, huh, are you a God then ?" Gabriel asked

"Yeah, I'm a God, boy," God said

"So where I'm going? Hell?" Gabriel asked curiously. He accepted his death surprisingly well. It didn't feel 'real' to him. He didn't feel anything went he died, so he takes his death without any regret.

"No, Let me explain something first but first of all I'm sorry because this is not your time to died yet" God explained

"What you mean?" Gabriel asked

"The one that should be dead is the woman that you are helping because of that her time replaced with your time to died so she will die on her 70 years old, my boy" God explained to him with a sad expression

"I see, it's okay then because I already accept my death. " Gabriel said

"Are you not angry? Because of that woman, your time has been cut short, you know?" God asked curiously

"As I said early, I already accept my death, and by giving her new time, she will search for her happiness and free herself from her Ex-Boyfriend that abuse her," Gabriel Explained. He doesn't have any family left; he doesn't have to say goodbye to anyone or make anyone sad. He content with it.

"I see, then how about I give you a second chance then?" God asked with an eager smile on his face

"Huh?"
