Prom night.

It's supposed to be a magical night where people have fun with their friends or dates.

However, tonight seems far from magical.

"The Prom King of tonight is...JUNG HOSEOK!"

Everyone clapped and cheered for the prom king, who was handsome and kind. No one was disappointed with this choice.

He went on the stage as the host put a crown on his head and a sash that read 'Prom King 2020'.

Sighing, I took another gulp of my drink before putting it aside.

"And the Prom Queen of tonight is...LEE MIRA!"

Putting on a fake smile, I walked up to the stage with a charm that didn't come by easily.

As I wore the sash, the crown was placed on my head. It seemed heavier than usual.

Smiling at Hoseok, we both took a seat on the "thrones" arranged as the entire school clapped for us and took pictures.

I didn't want to be here, but I decided to listen to my mother one last time.

Talking to a few people who came to us, I hoped for this night to end. I just wanted to finish this once and for all.

After a few more songs, it was the last dance of the night.

The Prom King and Prom Queen were expected to dance, so Hoseok and I took our places.

He was charming, but I just couldn't bring myself to enjoy his company. All I could do is fake smile and make small talk as people looked at us in awe.

As the song finally ended, we both bowed to each other as the prom night finally ended.

After wearing some comfortable clothes, I sighed happily at the peace. No one was going to bother me.

Sticking the pictures on the mirror, I admired my work before doing what I've been waiting to do for quite a while.

Taking out the chocolate cake, I smiled in delight. I could finally eat whatever I want, and it wouldn't matter.

Lighting a candle, I closed my eyes and wished for my father to be in peace before blowing it and cutting the cake.

After enjoying the sweet treat, I stretched before smiling.

This was it.

This was the end.

Taking out the razor that I hid carefully in my room, I inspected it before placing it on my wrist.

There was no hint of doubt. I waited to feel hesitant, but nothing came.

And so, I made a deep cut on one of the major arteries that was certain to cause my death.

I winced at the pain, but slowly smiled as the blood flowed out.

It was all going to end. I would finally be at peace. I would finally be with my dad.

Laying on my bed to the side, I waited.

After some time, I was starting to feel light headed. Smiling one last time, I closed my eyes forever.

"The recent passing of the late Lee Daejung's daughter, Lee Mira was truly unexpected. People conveyed their surprise after they found out that it had indeed been a suicide.

It was on December 9th that the widely admired girl had taken her life, which was also reported as her birthday.

The last that her classmates and friends have seen of her was at the prom night, after she was elected as the Prom Queen.

There were a few pictures stuck to her mirror that investigators found before they announced her death as suicide. Each one had disturbing notes about all that had happened to her, making everyone understand the reason of her suicide.

Not only was she widely hated by many people for her popularity, she was also assaulted by many people including her own uncle. The strict lifestyle that she had to maintain also played a role in her decision.

We all hope that her soul rests in peace. God save the Prom Queen."
