Makoto has been transported back to his world after being given a second chance from the gods in exchange, he must go back and fix his mistakes now he is back at the very beginning before he had met anyone
"Huh, where am I?, why am I back in my house and bed," Makoto thought but was interrupted by a voice
"About damn time you woke up," said the voice which was Eros who had followed him
"Eros, what the hell are you doing here?, I thought that I left Hell and that all I had to do was to promise I would fix things up," Makoto asked seeming surprised
"Yes, that`s true, but I have been assigned by the gods to monitor you to make sure you don`t fuck up or try anything funny, you lecher, by the way only you can see me, so when you`re talking to me people might think you`re talking to yourself" Eros explained
"Aww, now I gotta be watched on my every move, that`s bullshit!" Makoto cried in despair
"Well, maybe you should have thought twice before you cheated on all those girls, as they say, karma`s a bitch" Eros replied with a laugh
"Makoto, breakfast is ready, get down here, you don`t want to be late for your first day of school" called out Makoto`s mother from downstairs
"Yeah, I`ll be down in a sec" Makoto replied as he got ready for school
Enter Moeko Itou, Makoto`s mother
"Anyways, I`ll be working late, as usual, the hospital is gonna be busy today, so I left dinner in the fridge so just heat it up before you eat it," Moeko said as she left the house
"Yeah, all right" Makoto replied as he ate his breakfast
"Wow, so it seems that you don`t really have your parents in your life," Eros said as he watched Makoto eat
"Yeah, my mom left my father after he cheated on her and he got custody of my younger sister, so it`s just me and my mother and she works a lot, anyways explain what the fuck is going on here?" Makoto asked as he finished up breakfast
"Well with the second chance, the girls you cheated with no longer have a memory of you and this will be like meeting them for the first time again" Eros explained
"So basically I hit a reset button" Makoto replied
"Precisely, you have a clean slate now, but remember the seal planted on you will keep you in check as it will shock you every time you try something unfaithful" Eros explained
"Ahh shit, I forgot about that" Makoto said as he looked at his arm and the seal was there
"Anyways, finish up, you don`t want to be late" Eros said to Makoto while pointing at the clock
"Shit I gotta go," Makoto said as he rushed to grab his bag and locked the door behind him
On the train to school
"So no one will remember anything that happened before?" Makoto asked
"Right, so even if you run into Kotonoha on the train, she won`t remember you as now you two have never met" Eros explained, "speaking of the devil, here she comes"
As the train stopped a familiar face entered the train, it was Kotonoha, but she didn`t notice Makoto even though she walked past him and sat down while reading a book
"See what I mean, she has no memory of you," said Eros
"If that`s the case, then what about Sekai and the others?" Makoto asked
"The same, they don`t have any memory of you" Eros replied
"Is that so?, man this is gonna be a long trip " Makoto thought as he leaned back on the train door and took a picture of Kotonha as well he wanted to keep a picture of a beautiful girl on his phone
Sakakino High School 8:45 am
"Well, we`re here," Makoto thought as he walked through the gate to check his class assignment
"Anyways, if I remember correctly, the first person you meet that caused this domino effect in the past was Sekai, you`re still going to meet her, but you need to take a different approach with dealing with her or the same thing will happen again" Eros explained
"Yeah I guess," Makoto thought as he took his seat from his assignment as class was about to start and pulled out his phone, but then a familiar face came up to him
"Hi there, my name is Sekai Saionji, we`ll be sitting next to each other in this class, I hope we can get along," said Sekai
"Yeah, let`s get along then" Makoto replied while shaking her hand, "man let`s see how things play out this time," he thought
After Class and Lunchtime
"Yo Makoto, what`s up," said a familiar voice approaching Makoto
"Taisuke, bro how you doing?" Makoto replied
"Nothing much bro, I noticed that you were talking with Sekai, she`s a babe you know right?" Taisuke said as well he was perverted
"Yeah, I guess," Makoto thought
"Makoto, hey," said Sekai as she came up to the two
"Hey, what`s up?" Makoto replied
"There`something that I wanna talk to you about, can I borrow you for a second?" Sekai asked
"Yeah sure, I`ll see you later Taisuke," Makoto said as he left
"Makoto, you lucky bastard!" Taisuke yelled as he clenched his fist in jealously
Rooftop at school
"Sekai, how do you have a key to the rooftop? you know it`s off-limits to students right?" Makoto asked
"Well, I am the head of the astronomy club and it`s always nice to look at stars from the rooftop, wouldn`t you say, but back to the subject, are you in love with Kotonoha from class 4?" Sekai asked
"No, I don`t know what you`re talking about" Makoto replied while trying to hide the fact that it was true
"Oh come on, I saw you staring at her while she was looking at the class list, you don`t need to lie about it" Sekai replied with a mischevious grin
"All right fine, so what if I like her?" Makoto replied back
"I`ve got something good to show you," Sekai said as she pulled out her phone with a selfie of her and Kotonha
"Where on Earth did you get that?" Makoto asked trying to reach for the phone
"I introduced myself to her during gym class, I got her contact info and got to know her better" Sekai replied
"Aww sweet, slide me the number then," said Makoto
"No can do, you gotta get the contact info yourself," said Sekai teasing him
"Alright, what are you getting at?" Makoto asked
"Honestly, you should just go up to her and introduce yourself to herself, shoot your shot with her and don`t be afraid to miss, I`ll even help set you two up" Sekai proposed
"Why would you even want to help me even though we just met?" Makoto asked
"I want to help you out because I think that you can help Kotonoha out as she doesn`t have many friends and isn`t social and don`t you want a girlfriend?" Sekai asked
"Well I do, but I don`t know how to go about it" Makoto replied
"No problem, I`ll talk with Kotonoha tonight and we all can have lunch together" Sekai explained
"Alright then, man I just hope this doesn`t turn into a fuck up" Makoto replied
The Next Day at Lunchtime
"Makoto, let`s get going, Kotonoha`s waiting for us on the rooftop" Sekai said to Makoto as they walked out of class
"Shit, you deadass?" Makoto asked
"Yep, let`s go, don`t be such a wimp" Sekai replied as she dragged Makoto up to the rooftop
"I`m not ready yet!" Makoto screamed as he was being dragged to the rooftop where he saw Kotonoha waiting for them
"Oh uh hi" Makoto stuttered out as he tried to compose himself
"Uh hello to you too" Kotonoha replied anxiously
"Hey Kotonha, I brought him here like I promised," Sekai said to Kotonoha, "go ahead introduce yourself," Sekai said to Makoto as she gave him a hard slap on the back
"Ahh, yeah my name`s Makoto Itou, nice to meet you," Makoto said nervously
"Nice to meet you, my name`s Kotonoha Katsura" Kotonha replied
"Oh would you look at the time I gotta get going," Sekai said, but in reality, she wanted to give them time alone
"Wait where are you going?" Makoto asked
"I just realized that I have club work to do, good luck," Sekai said as she ran downstairs leaving the rooftop but ran into a friend on the way
"Are you okay with things the way they are?" asked Setsuna Kiyora, Sekai`s best friend
"Yeah everything`s fine, I`m just helping Makoto out by introducing him to a girl he`s interested in" Sekai replied
"Are you sure you don`t have feelings for him yourself?" Setsuna asked
"That`s crazy talk, I don`t have feelings for him, we`re just good friends," Sekai said as she left the scene
"Sometimes I worry for this girl," Setsuna said as she shook her head and left the scene
Back to Makoto`s side
"That damn bitch!, hey Eros help me out bro" Makoto pleaded
"No can do bro, you gotta do this on your own" Eros replied while ironically reading a porn magazine
"Damn it, what do I do now?" Makoto thought, but his thought was interrupted by Kotonha
"Here, I made some sandwiches for us, have a try Makoto-Kun," Kotonoha said as she offered a sandwich to him
"Yeah thanks," Makoto said as he took a bit from the sandwich, but got an unusual taste that caused him to frown
"Is it bad?" Kotonoha asked noticing the frown
"Nah, it`s fine, I`ll have another or all of them" Makoto replied as he tried to finish all the sandwiches to not hurt Kotonoha`s feelings, but with that much food in his mouth, he was bound to nearly choke
"Makoto-Kun, here have some tea," Kotonoha said as she noticed that he was choking
"Yeah, thanks," Makoto said as he chugged the tea down to wash down the sandwiches
After that moment, both of them sat next to each other in silence and Makoto wasn`t sure how to break the ice
"Damn so I guess that in the past I was a complete asshole to her, I gotta take a different approach with her," Makoto thought, "So since we just met, why don`t you tell me a bit about yourself?" Makoto asked
"Sure, I`m kinda new around this part as I just moved here with my family and don`t know this place well" Kotonoha replied
"Oh really, why don`t I show you around, are you free this weekend?" Makoto asked
"Uh yeah, I don`t have any plans for this weekend" Kotonoha replied
"Sounds good, we don`t we meet up at the park on Saturday at 10:00 am" Makoto proposed
"So it`s a date then?" Kotonoha asked
"Sure why not?"Makoto replied
"Wait, we should take each other`s contact numbers" Kotonoha proposed as she gave him her contact
"Yeah, we should" Makoto replied as he gave her his number as the bell rang signaling the end of lunchtime
"We better get going, we don`t want to be late" Kotonoha said as they got ready to head to class
"So I`ll see you on Saturday then?" Makoto asked
"Yeah, see you then" Kotonoha replied as she gave Makoto a goodbye hug
"Wow, wait to smooth talk kid, see what you can do when you`re not an asshole," Eros said to Makoto
"Yeah I guess," Makoto thought as he ran into Sekai in the hallway
"Hey, how`d it go champ?" Sekai asked
"It went good, I got her number and we`re going on a date this Saturday" Makoto replied
"That`s what I`m talking about, good work, do you have an idea of what the date`s gonna look like?" Sekai asked
"Yeah, I`ll just take her around town since she`s new around the area" Makoto replied
"Sounds like a plan, let`s get to class before we`re late," Sekai said as she headed into class
"Alright, I`m off to a great start, now I just gotta keep my promise and be a good boyfriend to Kotonoha," Makoto thought as he clenched his fist hoping to keep this promise
