Summary
Awakening as a background character in a romantic fantasy novel, I chose to live as if I were the star. I formed bonds with the story’s hero, his rival, and even its secret antagonist, yet remained uncertain of their true feelings. Seeking clarity, I confronted each one, only to be met with indifference and scorn from all three. This harsh truth revealed my place as a mere side character. Resolved to move on, I set out to find a partner away from this tale. My announcement to leave sparked what looked like genuine dismay in their eyes—but I’ve learned my lesson. Now, I’m forging my own destiny.
