Let me guess
10 years ago he was saved, and was apparently holding someone by the head when it happened
Both guide and esper are 10y-long friends
MC had a dream about a kid calling him hyung that clearly had the same hair color as the guide
The guide shows possessiveness towards MC pretty clearly
So the guide is the kid
Btw, the esper doesn't really look like a potential 2nd ml to me, he's too nonchalant for that. He might "serve" to stir the events between the two, but I don't really see him as getting "in the way"
I really like the story though
