Orientation

One upon a time, there was a single father with a very beautiful daughter named Cinderella. Her mother had rested in peace in heaven.

The father looked for a new wife to take care of the home and his daughter when he worked at the day.

The father got a wife with two daughters with the same age of her daughter.

For a couple of month after marriage, the father passed away. After that, the step mother and sisters of Cinderella showed their real face.

Complication

Cinderella was treated like a helper to do all of housework from early morning until night while the stepmother and the stepsisters were only having fun all the day.

One day, the king created a dance party to find the most beautiful girl to be the prince’s wife.

The king invited all people in that country, especially to whom who had daughters.

The Cinderella’s step mother had that invitation and asked her two daughters to come at the party.

Of course they were so happy except Cinderella that was not allowed to come. Anyway, even Cinderella dressed in a poor dress, she looked more beautiful than her step sisters.

The big day was coming and all girls were busy to prepare their beauty to come at the party except Cinderella.

A long the day, Cinderella desperately helped her sisters to prepare their dress, hair and everything to make them looked beautiful.

Inside her heart, Cinderella really wants to join the party but she could not do that and she was too afraid to ask her step mother to join the party. Her step mother asked Cinderella to stay at home to wait their coming.

In the evening, all people started to go to the party. Cinderella was alone at home and cried silently.

She prayed for the miracle coming for her. Her praying became true. Her Godmother came to help her to be able to join the party.

“Don’t cry, Cinderella, I am here to help you.”

After that the Godmother changed the pumpkin to be a very beautiful cart, changed six rats to be six big horses and changed a lizard to be a coachman.

After that the Godmother changed Cinderella’s appearance to be looked more and more beautiful in a beautiful dress, hair, and also with a couple of glass shoes.

Surely, Cinderella was ready to come to the party and became the most beautiful girl there.

The Godmother said, “Cinderella, now you can go there, but remember that you have to come home before midnight because at that time everything that you have now will disappear.”

Cinderella went to the party by her magical cart.

In the party, no body recognized her as Cinderella even her step mother and sisters.

The prince saw Cinderella as the best girl in the party and he asked her to dance with him.

A long the party, the prince spent the time with Cinderella only to talk each other.

Cinderella was so happy and she almost forgot that the time was already end. She ran quickly leaving the prince and the party and because of that one of her shoes was left. The prince took that shoe and kept that.

The prince was already falling in love and he promised to find the girl who had that glass shoe.

The next day after the party, the prince and his guardians went around looking for the girl who had the glass shoe.

Every girl in that country was asked to wear that shoe and so far there was no one who has the foot with the same size of that shoe.

Finally, the prince came to Cinderella’s house. Her stepmother and sisters welcomed the prince proudly.

Resolution

The prince said to the stepmother, “How many daughter you have madam?”

The stepmother said, “I have three daughters but I guess you will like one of my two daughters because the other one is so ugly.”

The prince said, “Okay, but I’m looking for the girl to whom this shoe belongs. Let me asked all your daughters try this shoe.”

One by one Cinderella’s step sisters try that shoe but they could not fix their feet in that shoe.

And the last, Cinderella try to wear her glass shoe and of course she could do that because she was the only one who can wear that shoe.

The prince looked Cinderella deeply and he remembered that Cinderella was the girl in that party who run away before midnight.

“I know you, beautiful lady. You cannot hide yourself in this dirty dress. I have been falling in love since I meet you in the party. Would you like to marry me?” The prince asked Cinderella.

“Yes I would, My Lord.” Cinderella replied.

After that, the prince married Cinderella and they were happy evermore shall be.
