Cinderella

fourth-prompt.jpg


This week my writing mission is to write Cinderalla story.

The prompt says that the Cinderalla story which has an happy ending should be tried to end with a sad ending.

The popular Cinderalla story I've heard through my mother, read as a lesson in my school and have seen a movie too. I remember 'pumpkin' turning into chariot and mice turning into horses and Cinderalla getting nice dress and dancing with the prince. At the stroke of midnight she runs from the ballet hall leaving one of her glass slippers.
Cineralla story is such that supression is turning to triumph. When  I referred to wikipedia to read the story once again  I was overwhelmed to see so many versions of the story. In fact the wikipedia says that the meaning of the name Cinderella  is suppression turning to triumph. The version I read in my lesson stated that because Cinderalla was in the kitchen among the cinders she was called so. In one of the versions of Cinderalla stories the wikipedia mentions this meaning also.

Now I continue the story:

Cinderella got into the coach and hurried towards home. Her God mother fairy had warned that if she stays after mid night at the ball, her rich blue gown will turn to rags and her rich coach and other facilities would turn to pumpkin and mice. She cursed at her status and was very sad asking God why, why she lost her parents, ill treated by her step sisters and step mother. She cried at her fate.

The prince was mad. He could not think of any one but Cinderalla. That morning the king arranged a search group of soldiers for his son. They carried with them the glass slipper which Cinderalla had left at the ball when she hurriedly moved at the chime of 12 last might. They were given the mission of searching each house in the kingdom, for a girl to whom the glass slipper would fit.

"No we don't have any other girl in this house"  
- step mother tells the kings group when the glass slipper did not fit into the feet of the step sisters. 
Cinderella at that juncture comes out of the kitchen on some errand.The cunning step mother very smartly gets hold of the one glass slipper from the soldier and destroys it to pieces.The kings contingent could not find the right feet that would fit into the glass slipper. 

The blame for the destruction of one glass slipper was put on one soldier and he was punished . No one ever knew about the other glass slipper. The prince was sullen for a few months and other occupations set him right as the time elapsed. Cinderella continued her servant life. The evil step sisters and step mother lived happily suppressing Cinderella.

He is robbed including his pants. He can’t fix himself to change in life. He calls Leonard. — Girmit (^‿^) (@cgBalu)   🚆 → 🚉 → 🚆 → 🚉 A funny moment from  The Big Bang Theory  (Season 8, Episode 1). Sheldon decides to tour American cities by train. New York. Arizona. A few others. But there is a Sheldon twist. He never actually goes into the cities. He remains inside trains and railway stations, orbiting them like a cautious satellite. Then disaster strikes. He is robbed. Everything goes. Even his pants. And Sheldon being Sheldon, he cannot recalibrate his personality. So he does the only logical thing in his universe: he calls Leonard. ❤😎

66 😎

66. A number that once sounded distant. Now it sits quietly beside me, sipping morning air. This is not a fitness routine. This is not a medical prescription. This is a conversation with the body, before the world starts talking. Minute 0–2: Waking Up Without Arguments I don’t jump out of bed. I negotiate. A slow turn. Feet touch the floor. The hips complain softly — not rebellion, just a reminder: “Ease into the day.” I smile. We’ve known each other long enough. Minute 3–6: Gentle Movements — No Heroics A few knee bends near the wall. Hip circles — small, like drawing commas in the air. Marching in place, as if I’m late for nothing. This is not exercise. This is oiling old hinges. The body responds politely. Minute 7–11: Walking — The Best Medicine Slow. Then moderate. If the weather is kind and yesterday’s dinner was lighter, I allow myself a gentle upward slope. No speed targets. No apps judging me. Just footsteps, breath, and that quiet joy of still being able to move forward. Minu...
