Once upon a time, there was a comely princess. The only daughter of the King and queen of the land of Eshereia, an enchanting land where fairies and sprites wandering. She was considered as the fairest woman to the whole land, not only her facial attributes but her whole being pulchritude. She was blameless from her head to toe.

Her father wants to assure that the sole child will have a stable future further announced that he was looking for a perfect match for his extremely pretty daughter. All men that are rich (of course royalty!), handsome (perfect match remember?), gentleman (I know this is just a dream story, okay?), and strong (sigh, fairy tale!) will have the right to marry her. It's like a competition of showing-off.

The princess doesn't like the idea as she believed in true love. She wants someone who will be on her side not because she's pretty or rich. She doesn't even care if that person is poor or whatever, as long as she loves her with his whole heart.

She got an idea. She went to the forest and meet the wish fairy for help. The Wish Fairy who is wise told her to change herself and be the opposite of what she is now. It will mean to be ugly and destitute. The princess was adventurous and full of hope that no matter what she looks like there will be someone who is willing to accept her from whoever beast she could possibly be. She agreed only for a month she will be a different person.

One magical click, she changed. She went to the city and roamed around the area, talked to many people and mingling with other beggars and peasants. But nobody wants to like an ugly and stinky lady like her even the same beggars doesn't want to. She realized something, the world isn't for her to be hopeful. She was only living a dream fairytale. Ugly truth.

Not so happy ending, right?

Anyway, thanks for reading!

  • In short SNR... :)

  • Dear EsEnAr, :D Thanks for reading this! :)

  • Dear Bet, thanks for reading this. Would you like to help me out, please tell me where my tenses got messed up. I would like to know so I can improve the area. Thanks!

  • Dear Hermano, what? what???? I don't want to repeat myself again! I told Roma already why it was like that. Hahahaha!

    Thanks for appreciating this and reading this alone means a lot to me. In time, we can still hope for a happy ending, though it's not yet to come. 

  • Dear Roms, in real life we should accept it' not always a happy ending. :) I'm just being realistic here, but of course, I also wish for the best at the end. 

    Thanks for reading this!

  • Dear Ate Ada, thanks for dropping by here. I'm glad you read this. :)

  • Just superb, dear, but I would like to say please check the tenses. Overall idea is really fantastic and touchy. There is something that makes readers bound to read to the last. Truly, I was trying to know what would be at the end! Your style  is really appreciable!

  • You're skilled at getting the reader into your story so I was picturing your fair damsel, Eshereia's landscapes and its picturesque inhabitants buttttt....
    I didn't expect such ending, you left me half done! Ohhh... she doesn't deserve that fate and I won't be peacefull till I see her watching her dreams come true and realize that the world is not always this way.

    Apart from that good job, as usual.
