Assalamu’laikum Wr.Wb.
Good
morning, guys. Do you know a story about a glass slipper and a princess? Well,
here I’ll tell you the story. And the title is ...
Cinderella
Once
upon a time in a kingdom, there lived a pretty girl named Cinderella. She was
very beautiful and kind hearted. Her parents had long passed away. She lived
with her cruel stepmother and her two stepsisters, Anastasia and Drizzela.
Everyday the stepmother forced Cinderella to do all the housekeeping. Meanwhile
Anastasia and Drizzela were only two lazy girls who loved to make over them selves.
One
day, there was a ball invitation from the kingdom to all the girls. The lucky
girl would marry the prince. The stepmother and two stepsisters were so happy
to hear that. Anastasia and Drizzela started to dress up. However, they became
noisier them selves..
“Cinderella,
comb my hair and put the ribbon on my head!” said Drizzela.
“This
is the ribbon for you, Drizzela.” replied Cinderella.
“No,
no, no! Take my shoes and fit it on my feet!” shouted Anastasia.
“Hey!
She must do all what I say. Not you!”
“No!
She must help me to make me prettier than all girls!”
Shortly
after the unimportant debate, they looked ready to go the ball. Cinderella
really wanted to go with them. So, she asked her stepmother.
“May I
go to the ball, Mom?” asked Cinderella.
“Huh?
What do you think? You’d better stay at home, clean all the rooms, washing
dishes and clothes.” replied the stepmother.
“You’re
even really smell, Ella. If you go with us, you will make us shame!” mocked
Anastasia.
“That’s
right. You don’t even have a dress. The prince won’t see you even if you come
there.” Added Drizzela.
“But I
really want to go there, Sister.” said Cinderella.
Although
Cinderella had begged, the stepmother and her two stepsisters didn’t allow her
to come to the ball. They left Cinderella alone at home. She began to cry.
“I
really want to go. I wish I can go to the ball and meet the prince.” Said her.
Suddenly
there was a bright light. A fairy godmother appeared and approached her.
“Cinderella,
please don’t cry. I’m a fairy godmother who will help you to go the ball”, said
the fairy godmother.
Cinderella
was very happy. The fairy godmother asked Cinderella to find six mice, six
lizards, and a golden pumpkin. So, Cinderella went to the garden and brought
them to the fairy godmother.
“Aha!
Smart girl. Look! Simsimbim Adrabah! Oh, I think it’s not the spell. Simsalabim
Adacadabra!”
Magically,
the golden pumpkin turned into a very
beautiful gold cart. The six mice turned into six horses, and the six lizards
turned into the bodyguards. Then, the fairy godmother swang her wand and spoke
the same spell. Amazing! Cinderella’s dirty cloth changed into a very beatiful
dress with sparkling jewelry. She wore a pair of glass slipper too. Before she
left, the fairy godmother told her.
“Ella,
the magic will dissapear after the bell of twelve o’clok ring. Therefore,
exactly at twelve night you have to leave the ball.”
“Well,
fairy godmother. I will remember this message and leave the party promptly at
twelve night. Thank you so much, Maam.”
Cinderella
immediately went to the ball with all her magical thing. In the palace, all the
girls showed their beauty in front of the prince. But, the prince didn’t seem
impressed by any of them. Not long, Cinderella arrived at the ball. People were
very surprised becauce of her beauty, including the stepmother and two
stepsisters. They didn’t realize that the pretty girl was Cinderella.
The
prince was impressed and aprroached Cinderella.
“Princess,
you look so beautiful. Will you dance with me?” asked the prince.
“Of
coure. It’s an honor that I can dance with you” replied Cinderella.
Both of
them were dancing with happines all the night. Cinderella was so happy and
forgot the time. Apparently, the clock started approaching at twelve o’clock. The
bell began to ring.
“I’m
sorry, Prince. I have to go home.”
She ran
out of the palace. But one of her glass slipper had left on the way. She kept
running. The prince ran after her and found Cinderella’s glass slipper in the
middle of the stairs. The prince took it and planed to find who the actually
owner of the glass slipper.
A few
next days, the Prince and his soldiers went from house to house to find the
owner of the glass slipper. However, none of them were suitable. Finally, he
arrived at Cinderella’s home. Anastasia and Drizzela tried the glass slipper.
“I’m
the oldest sister, so let me try it first. What! It’s too small. But, at the
ball it was fit on my feet.” said Anastasia.
“Don’t
say any reasons. It’s my turn to try the glass slipper. Oh! Maybe I soaked in
warm water too long this morning, so my feet shrinking. It’s too big on my foot.”
said Drizzela.
The
prince and his soldiers almost gave up. Suddenly, Cinderella came with her
dirty cloth. The prince asked Cinderella to try the glassslipper too. But, the
cruel stepmother refused to let her tried.
“I’m
sorry, my majesty. How can you think that dirty girl is maybe the princess.
It’s impossible, isn’t it?” said the stepmother.
“Miss,
she has a right to try the glass slipper too.” replied the prince.
Cinderella
stuck her foot into the glass slipper. Magically, she turned back into the
beautiful princess.
“Amazing!
The magic is back.” said Cinderella.
Everybody
was very surprised, especially the stepmother and two stepsisters.
“How
can she turn into the princess?” said the stepmother.
Then
the prince asked Cinderella to marry him.
“You
are the girl who I had been loking for. Will you marry me?” asked the prince.
“Of
course.”
After
that, Cinderella went to the palace with her prince and lived happily together.
