Cinderella (Faerie Tale Collection)
“It was nearly two o’clock and her chores were finally complete. Patting her face dry with the ragged cloth that hung upon a nail on her wall, she looked around her room. How she wished she had something prettier to wear. Something that would allow John to see her a bit differently. It was quite silly, she knew, to be forever thinking of the man. His presence meant nothing different in her life, except perhaps a small change, an excitement that was not there before.She hung the cloth back on the... nail and took the pins from her hair. He was the means of the impossible. He was causing her to have hopes and dreams she did not need. Dreams that were even now beginning to clutter up her mind.Taking her old comb, she began to smooth out her long hair. If only she could escape this house. If only she could one day meet a man who would love her and take her away from here. He need not be like John—so very tall and handsome and a part of the court. He could very well be a nice farmer who was hoping to start his own farm somewhere.MoreLess
