Rebirth Into My Second Chance

"I'm really mad at you, but if you're truly sorry, I might consider forgiving you."

When she mentioned forgiveness, I had a feeling it would come with strings attached.

Sure enough, she said, "Take care of Kate, you've always disliked her, right? She even tried to steal your man before, oh, and in your past life too."

Ugh-

I felt like my head was about to explode.

Past life.

Hannah knows about past lives.

Being reborn and all, how come I feel like just a background character, constantly overpowered by others?
