Read the novel and it was so good, I cried a few times.
The story was well written. I really liked the MC's genuine desire to protect his loved ones and how he wanted to correct his past mistakes. The Ml's past is also heartbreaking. He never hated the mc, but he was disappointed in his actions, especially when he teamed up with his stepmom. He realized that his feelings towards mc was in fact love but it was too late. He lived for 10 years (?) trying to create a miracle and finally got to return to the past.
Help, I'm looking for this old shounen-ai manga where the mc is a reincarnation of the ml's lover. If I'm not mistaken, he was a girl in his past life. This story has supernatural elements too and the ml has always been protecting the mc. I belive the manga was discontinued. It was also adapted to an anime series.
Awww I'll miss them.
