Chapter 1 - Prolog

I'm completely exhausted.

Why? Well, saying I'm repeating the university entrance exam for the second time should explain a lot-but my situation doesn't stop there.

We've never had enough money. I've never been outgoing, so I don't even have any friends.

In short, life just doesn't seem to work for me.

The only time I ever felt happy was when I got lost in fictional stories —

living out lives in my head that I'll never have.

– Final Chapter –

hands shaking

What? The final chapter of my favorite novel?! Right now?! I have to read it immediately. But… can my heart even handle it?

I quickly tapped the notification.

Suddenly, her eyes opened wide, her heart clenched— and death.

"You know how people say, 'My heart stopped from excitement'?

I think that actually happened to me."
