CINDERELLA
One day, there was a beautiful girl named Cinderella. She
lived with a wicked stepmother and her two stepsisters. They treated Cinderella
very bad and did not appreciate her. Near from her home, there was a king’s
palace which was so beautiful and there would be held a big party. Her
stepmother and her sisters were invited to attend the party. However, they did
not allow her to go to the party. (1) Her
stepmother got Cinderella to sew a party dress that would be worn by her mother
and sister. While, she did not have time to sew her dress. Her mother
and her sisters went to a party and left Cinderella alone at home.
She felt very sad and cried. Between her tears, suddenly a
fairy godmother appeared and said “do not cry, I can send you to the ball
now!”, But she kept crying and looked so sad. She said, “I do not have a dress
to wear in the ball”. The fairy godmother of course would not be worry and
waved the wand to transform the Cinderella’s old clothes into the new dress
which was very beautiful. Furthermore, that fairy godmother touched
Cinderella’s foot with the wand and suddenly Cinderella had beautiful glass slippers.
Cinderella was shocked and said, “wow, thank you, but how I could go to the
ball?”. Fairy godmother then went into the kitchen and saw four rats. She
turned it into golden four horses and into a beautiful buggy. Before leaving
home, the Fairy Godmother said (2) “Cinderella, I let you go to the party
until middle of the night, after that you have to go home because this
magic will works only until midnight!”
When Cinderella entered the palace, (3) everyone was stunned by her beautiful
face. In fact, no one recognized her because she was so different.
Cinderella was so pretty with the dress and the glass slippers. A handsome
prince also saw Cinderella and he fell in love. He met Cinderella and asked,
“Do you want to dance?” And she said, “yes, I want to dance with you”. Prince
and Cinderella danced during the night and she was so happy at that night. She
forgot the fairy godmother warning that she should go home in the middle of the
night. At the last moment, Cinderella remembered her promise to the fairy
godmother and went home. “I must go!”, said her. She ran quickly and one of her
glass slippers left but she did not come back to pick it up. (4) Apparently, glass slippers was found by
Prince.
Cinderella arrived home a few minutes later. When she
arrived, the clock struck in twelve. The horses and the buggy back into the
previous shape and she did not wear the glass slippers and the beautiful dress
anymore. After that, her stepmother and sisters came home and talked about the
beautiful women who danced with the prince. They were very curious about the
identity of the woman who suddenly appeared.
In the palace, Prince kept thinking about Cinderella and he
fell in love. Prince wanted to find out the identity of the girl, but he even
did not know her name. Prince has only found the glass slipper, and he said, “I
will find her, and I will marry the woman whose foot fits into this glass
slipper!”.
In the next day, (5)
the prince got his bodyguards to follow with him went to all the existing
home. They wanted to find a woman whose foot matched with the size of
the shoe. (6) The glass slipper was tried
by Cinderella stepsisters but their feet do not match. When Cinderella
wanted to try, her stepmother prevented and forbidden her. However, the prince
said, (7) “I let her trying to wear!”. When
