POV: Mara

Years had passed since the novel world faded into memory. But for Mara, the memories never disappeared — they lived in every shadow, every reflection, every page.

She walked through a quiet bookstore, now wearing a simple scarf, far from the capes and storms of her past. But then… she stopped.

There—on the front display—was a familiar name:

"The Side Princess" by Gerah S.

A published novel. Bestseller. Adapted for stage. Rumored to be headed for a film.

She picked up a copy, her fingers trembling.

“Was it all… real?” she whispered.

Around her, readers smiled as they turned the pages.

One girl looked exactly like the obsessed lady who once loved Prince Xavier—but this time, she was peacefully reading, not chasing a fairytale.

Mara stepped out into the city.

She started noticing more of them—faces she thought she’d only met in a world that wasn’t supposed to exist.

Maybe they weren’t just characters.

Maybe they were us all along.

Meanwhile...

Gerah was now a celebrated author.

She had woken up one day in her real world, surrounded by notebooks and drafts.

At first, she thought it was all a dream.

But the books on the shelves said otherwise.

30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXR6SL739Q

Her story wasn’t about Prince Xavier.

It wasn’t about Princess Dahlia.

It was about her—The Side Princess who changed the ending.

At a local café, a phone call came through.

30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoC57T8FHrb

> “Hi, Miss Gerah? We’re from Sunstream Productions. We’d love to adapt your novel series into a drama… would you be interested?”

Gerah smiled, watching children dressed like characters from her book.

“I’d be honored.”

As she reached for her novel from the café shelf, another hand reached for it too.

She looked up.

30Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXcvsdvQaj

A man.

He looked exactly like Prince Xavier.

Beside him, a woman with Mara’s face smiled and said,

You wanted to get this too?”

Gerah stood frozen. She turned behind them—

A crowd, all holding copies of The Side Princess.

Laughing. Talking. Living.

Familiar faces in unfamiliar clothes.

Maybe not from a story anymore—

But from reality.

A Quiet Poem Played in Her Head:

We were once the lines unheard,

Trapped in pages never turned.

But ink remembers, time replays,

What silence

writes in hidden ways.

To every side who felt too small,

Your story matters, after all.

THE END...
