"School, Rebirth & A Dangerous Question"
Inside Justin's room
Amber pushed open the door and stepped inside, expression calm as always.
Amber:
"Are you ready, little champ?" ☺️
Justin sat on the bed, half dressed, half panicking.
Justin:
"Is it… compulsory that we go, sis?" 😅
Amber didn't even look at him.
Amber:
"It's not we, Justin."
"It's you." 😎
Justin sighed dramatically.
Justin:
"Sis…" 😕
Amber smirked quietly and began packing his school bag with military precision.
Amber:
"Math book. Notebook. Pen. Trouble magnet."
(puts the trouble magnet—Justin—near the bag)
Justin puffed his cheeks, then suddenly remembered something.
His expression changed.
Justin:
"Sis… what would you do… if you had to start school again from the very beginning?" 😤
Amber paused but continued packing.
Amber:
"Like what?"
Just then, Jonathan walked into the room, adjusting his tie.
Justin took a deep breath and dropped the bomb.
Justin:
"Like you already finished studying… finished college… have a degree… have your own business… live your adult life…"
He looked down at the floor.
"Then someone kills you… and you get reborn as a child."
"And you have to start everything again." 😅
Amber froze.
Jonathan froze.
Both looked at Justin at the same time.
Amber & Jonathan:
😶
Justin slowly lifted his head.
Justin:
"Sis?" 😕
Amber narrowed her eyes.
Amber:
"…Which novel did you read that from?" 😤
Justin panicked.
Justin:
"Ah— uhh— new novel! Very new novel! Freshly released, nobody knows about it—" 😅
Amber shut his mouth gently with her hand.
Amber:
"Don't read it again."
"It's not for kids." 😐
Her tone was softer now—
because she knew.
She knew Justin remembered his past.
She just didn't want him to remember everything.
Justin pushed her hand away.
Justin:
"But answer me!" 😤
"What would you do if you had to start from zero again?"
Amber looked at him for a long moment—
so long that even Jonathan held his breath.
Then Amber spoke.
Her voice was low. Steady. Strong.
Amber:
"I would do it."
"I would study again."
"I would fight again."
"I would protect again."
"Because if I'm alive—"
She placed her hand on Justin's head.
"—then I still have someone to live for."
Justin's eyes widened.
Jonathan's heart dropped.
Amber finished packing the bag and stood up straight.
Amber:
"And if anyone tried to kill me again…"
Her lips curved into a terrifying little smile.
"I'd kill them first." 😈
Jonathan: 😨
Justin: 🥺
Amber: 😎
