Hikari's life was... Nothing. Just a broken kid who had to face the real world's problems completely alone. From the age of 9, he learned that the best way to survive is to shut off your brain and let your body do everything. 18 years later, he realized how wrong he was, how far he'd strayed from the promise he made to his father. He sacrifices himself saving a girl... but he doesn't do it just to save her. He sought an escape in it, a way to finally rest, and somehow, to feel... Even if it was painful, even if just for a few seconds. But the universe seemed to play dirty with him again, reborn as a baby with a father who rejects him and a twin brother who will be by his side for much of his life. Will he... finally be able to fulfill the promise he made to his father?

A young man met his fateful and abrupt end, alone, unable to achieve his dreams and full of regrets. In his final moments, he wished to have spent his life differently, and wanted to do it all again the right way. Now... He gets the chance to do just that.
