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 (Past Future) a big
party. Her stepmother and her sisters were invited (Past Tense) to attend the
party. However, they did not allow her to go to the party. She was ordered (Past
Tense) to sew the party dresses that would be worn (Past Future) by her mother and
sisters. 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 (Past Future) 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 (Past
Tense) 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 “Cinderella, you have to go home at middle of the night,
because this magic will works only until midnight!”
When Cinderella entered the palace, everyone was stunned (Past Tense) 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.
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, the prince and his bodyguards went to all the existing
home. They wanted to find a woman whose foot matched with the size of the shoe.
Cinderella stepsisters also tried the glass slipper but their feet do not
match. When Cinderella wanted to try, her stepmother prevented and forbidden
her. However, the prince said, “let her trying!”. When Cinderella wore a glass
slipper, she had a perfect leg for the shoe. The prince then recognized her and
he was convinced (Past
Tense) that she was a woman who danced with him at the dance. He
married Cinderella and they lived happily.
