A Modern Story

"In a land far, far away..."
"Wait, wait, wait... Are you going to tell us a story?"
"Yes."
"So why don't you start with the classic 'Once upon a time'?"
"Because this is a modern story. Would you please not interrupt? And by the way, who are you?"
"I'm a reader."
"A reader? You can't be a reader. I haven't written the story yet!"
"I know that. Just ignore I'm here. I won't bother you."
"Fine, but I don't wanna hear a single word."
"Don't worry. I'll just seat here and be like a statue"

A Modern Story

"In a land far, far away..." "Wait, wait, wait... Are you going to tell us a story?"

"Yes."

"So why don't you start with the classic 'Once upon a time'?"

"Because this is a modern story.

Would you please not interrupt?

And by the way, who are you?"

You could also say 'And anyway,'

"I'm a reader."

"A reader?

You can't be a reader.

I haven't written the story yet!"

You could join this sentence to the last one with a dash.

"I know that.

Just ignore I'm herme.

Or 'Just pretend I'm not here.'

I won't bother you."

"Fine, but I don't wanna hear a single word."

"Don't worry.

I'll just seait here and be like a statue"

Normally you use quotation marks and the beginning and end of each character’s dialogue

You can also say:

Even though "I'm a reader" and "A reader? You can't be a reader" is technically correct, I would change them this way:
"I'm the reader"
"The reader? You can't be the reader"

I think that's what I was looking for, but I'm not sure. Does "the reader" work as a generic term for "reader" in this context?
I mean, if "the reader" worked like this snippet I pasted:

"The READER commands the services of distinguished writers in every branch of literature and science."

Thank you for the corrections!

Is it possible for me to edit my own messages? I'm sorry , I'm new here.

"In a land far, far away..." "Wait, wait, wait... Are you going to tell us a story?"

"Yes."

"So why don't you start with the classic 'Once upon a time'?"

"Because this is a modern story.

Would you please not interrupt?

And by the way, who are you?"

"I'm a reader."

"A reader?

You can't be a reader.

I haven't written the story yet!"

"I know that.

Just ignore the fact that I'm here.

Your original sentence is perfectly understandable, it just doesn't sound natural. You could also say "Just ignore my presence" and it would sound perfect.

I won't bother you."

"Fine, but I don't wanna hear a single word."

"Don't worry.

I'll just seait here and beact like a statue"
