A Thing I Can't Expect

A Thing I Can't Expect

Episode 1

Hi, welcome to my boring life. Are you thinking why I called my life boring?

Because in my life, there is no romance, no fantasy, no thrill.

The only thing in my life is a shitty school, dumb classes, and me.

My name is Grace, and I’m studying in 12th grade.

Guess what? My life is just full of shitty things and an unlucky aura I have.

The only interesting thing I do is read comics.

My standards are too high—that’s why I’m single and never go into a relationship.

How sad it is…

After I come back from that shitty school, I read a romantic comic named Love Me Like I Do and go, “Wow, what a handsome guy he is.”

I shout out loud, “Thank God no one isHome ".

“What was this… a BL romance? I never saw that coming!”

Actually, I had never read a BL (Boys’ Love) romance before. Not because I was against it, but because they always had so many freaking twists.

And well, I am a schoolgirl—shouldn’t I stay in my limits?

But... I ended up reading one episode. Just one.

Why? Because the both leads were so damn handsome. I mean, how could I resist?

The story wasn't too great in the end—kinda average—but the visuals? Good God. I just stared at their faces and sighed.

"Ugh... why wasn't I born in a manhwa like this?" I mumbled to myself.

Then I rolled over and told myself to shut up and go to sleep.

"That’s impossible anyway,” I whispered with a laugh.

The lights were off, and I slowly drifted into my dreams—far away from this dull, grey world I lived in.

I didn’t like my real life. No excitement, no spark. Just boring days passing by.

That’s why I prayed,

"Hi God… please let me go live in a dreamy world instead of this cruel one."

Next Day

“Ugh… how much time is it?”

I groaned, slowly waking up. My whole body ached like I’d been hit by a truck. “I don’t want to go to that shitty school,” I mumbled. “Mom! I’m not going to school today!”

But instead of my mom’s voice, a soft knock came from the door.

A lady walked into my room.

Wait—was she even a lady?

She was a really pretty girl, wearing a super cute school uniform. Her voice was soft as she leaned in and gently said,

> “Ella, wake up! We’re already late!”

I blinked.

“W-What...? Did she just call me Ella?”

That’s not my name. I’m not Ella!

I sat up, confused. This had to be a dream. I was sure of it. A strange, vivid dream... but something about it felt different.

And then… just like that...

It ended.

Very suddenly. Very quietly.

I hope you like it stay with me and see what happens to grace 😘😘

Thankyou so much
