"Why do the main character's parents often get the short end of the stick?"
That is what Mila asked while looking up at the sky. She was grumbling toward whoever sent her inside the novel she read before she died.
She becomes the mother of the main character, whose parents are both dead. Mila's character was merely a tool for the MC's character development.
It's a simple, fix-all solution. The author wanted to make the audience instantly sympathetic towards the main character, and the best thing he did was to have the MC's parents die.

After she avoided her death in the original plot, death flags kept coming for her. 

Will the original plot not end if she's not dead?

Main character's parents must die

Robert cuddles Mila, snatching her breath and the warmth from her skin.

Mila has her guard up for so long that, for the first time, her defenses are suddenly reduced to paper, paper that is being wet by the quickly descending saline drips. She has melted into Robert's shape before she can draw in the air her body needs.

Mila can feel Robert's strong torso and his beating heart. His hands are wrapped around Mila's back, giving her light kisses.

Mila can feel her body trembling, grieving for the time they will never get back, crying to let go of the stress of these three long years. Mila pulls her head back, but Robert pulls her back to him, wiping her tears away with a calloused finger, and even this roughness provides more solace than her heart can handle.
