I Became My Unfortunate Female Lead

"ATHASIA, FROM NOW ON, YOU ARE NO LONGER MY CHILD"

All of her nerves shuddered. Her knees gave up and slid down onto the cold floor. With her head down, tears welled up in her eyes. As soon as a small sob escaped her lips, she covered her mouth. Athasia knew that her father didn't want to hear her cry. Her father hated weak people, including her.

'What did I do to deserve this, father?' she thought. 'I did everything you want. I became the perfect daughter in front of your eyes, to everyone.."

As her tears continuously fell, Athasia remembered everything. Attending elementary graduation as the top student, without a father. She watched all of her classmates with their parents that day. On her seventh birthday, she celebrated it with the maids until she reached 18. Her father never greeted her, nor attended the important events of her life.

But when she got bullied at school, her father scolded her. He scolded her daughter for causing a ruckus, instead of listening to her side.

'Why is it that when something went wrong, you're always blaming me? Is it because I am your mistress' daughter?'

She wiped the tears on her cheeks as soon as she felt her father's cold gaze. She bowed her head and walked away.

Trailing the hallways with her heavy footsteps, Athasia met one of her siblings, but instead of helping, her older sister looked at her with disgust, mumbling the words. "Serves you right,"

She ignored Athasia like she didn't even exist. Well, she's used to being an outcast all of her life.

For Athasia, she was a failure.

***

[Uwaahh~ you are so cruel, author!]

[I pity Athasia so much, she deserves to be happy]

[I'm coming for you, author! huhuhu]

[Who hurt the author? I'm coming]

[We're going to burn your house, author! huhuhu]

[I don't know, but I am a fan of your bitter sweet tragic novels]

[I hate you, author! You're so good at writing angst]

Littleyoonie, lifted her midnight coffee, taking a sip like a villain in every movie. Satisfied with the comments from her readers, she put down the cup. She curled up on her stomach and laughed out. "HA HA HA HA..Oh my! This is so good! They're all crying," she exclaimed, grinning very widely.

'THE UNFORTUNATE FEMALE LEAD' the new novel she's working on, got a ton of comments and votes because of its tragic plot. She's a sadistic author who likes to see her readers cry and bawl their eyes out every arc.

For her, a happy ending is not an option.

Littleyoonie then turned to her laptop and enjoyed reading the new comments popping out. She just finished updating the latest chapter and is now taking a little rest to refresh her brain cells. She leaned on her chair and turned it around like a playing kid. The lady roamed her eyes around her dim apartment.

She lived alone and was working as a full-time author online. She likes to stay in the dark with only her laptop serving as light. She likes to stay in her apartment all day, admiring the silent atmosphere.

The lady thought she'll enjoy the silence until her phone rang very loudly. Littleyoonie immediately picked it up. "What is it?" she frowned.

The one on the line clicked her tongue. "I saw your update tonight. You are indeed a cruel author," she said between teasing and sarcastic tone.

Littleyoonie snorted. "Aish! What do you want?" she straightened her back, returning her eyes to the laptop screen.

"We are having a little celebration here at XX pub..come on! Hang out with us! We are all authors here," the woman on the line, her senior, insisted. She said that this place is nearby littleyoonie's apartment.

"What am I gonna do there?"

"Come on, unless you want me to expose your face to your readers online. For sure, some of them wanted to burn your house, kekeke," her senior teased, which made her sprang up.

"Fine! I'm going! I'm going!"

Littleyoonie ended the call, and then she pulled her jacket from the hanging rack near the door. Exiting the apartment with a grumpy face. The truth is, she's an introvert. Even if she's laughing hysterically to her crying readers, she's still scared like a cat with a tail behind.

"Whatever, I will just spend a little time and head back," she tucked the jacket closer to her chest.

The night was getting deep, with the moon shining above her. Littleyoonie couldn't help herself but to imagine another scene.

'JUST LIKE THE MOON, YOU CAN SHINE ALONE'

That phrase suddenly came into her mind. There was something that snapped inside her. "That's it! I'm going to do character development!" she exclaimed with determined eyes.

She pulled her phone from her pocket and started to type the new plot of her third arc. It will be when the female lead will change and bloom into a beautiful and adorable character.

In the middle of the quiet streets, she saw a small silhouette. If there is something that will make her heart pound in excitement, that thing would be a cat.

Littleyoonie saw a cute black cat in the middle of the street, but when she tried to approach it, it ran to the other side of the road, near the construction site.

Wanting to save the cat, her legs moved on its own. Ignoring the danger that awaits her, she dashed forward. Little did she know that her actions would lead her to her death.

Falling into the sinkhole with her last wish. Failing to not give her female lead a character development.

The last unfinished novel full of sadness and emotions came into her mind while feeling her body falling into the depths of darkness. She retracted her stretched arms as soon as she realized that there's no one there who'll save her.

Because the truth is, even herself, till her last breath, never experienced a happy ending.

The famous sadistic author who likes to write sad novels met her tragic death.
