The Story of Anna's Second Chance

The main character, Anna Manalastas, was a very successful but very strict businesswoman. She cared a lot about her company, The Toy Company, but not so much about people's feelings. After a sudden accident, Anna finds herself in the afterlife. But instead of going straight to heaven, she meets a Gatekeeper.

A Mission to Make Things Right

The Gatekeeper tells Anna she has a special mission: she gets 100 days to return to Earth. But there's a catch! She comes back as a young child. Her goal is to fix the mistakes she made and help the people she treated badly. If she succeeds, she can earn her way into heaven.
