"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

It's not easy to accept that Robert doesn't miss Mila as much as she misses him, but what can she do? cry? Feeling down? Sleep deprivation? It's conceivable that all of these things will happen, and it's entirely fine to feel how she feels right now. She knows to herself that there is no other person in this world she loves and misses as much as she misses Robert.

However, in her current situation, she can't be depressed forever. She needs to work because there are other people depending on her.

After allowing herself to experience a spectrum of emotions, she still eats, sleeps, and goes to work as usual, but the only difference is she can't stop worrying and thinking about Robert.

When she misses someone, there's no denying that raw emotion. She can't get it out of her head, and it lingers, like an annoying fly buzzing around in the summertime.
