Summary :
Ella sat by the fire place and gazed into the fire, her favorite book clutched in her hands, a gift from her father who is dead now. Now, she lived with her step mother and two step sisters. One day, there was an invitation letter from the Kingdom; the prince was looking for his princess. Ella wanted to go there, but her step mother and her step sisters left her in the house. When she was crying, the fairy used her magic to change Cinderella's dress and got her to the castle. There, she met a handsome prince who fell in love with her at the first sight. She realized that she was bad, so she said good bye to the prince. Then, she went back to her house with her step mother who knew that there was Cinderella. Her step sisters laughed and insulted her because she was stupid to leave the prince. Five years later Ella stood with her sisters as they got married with two men from the town. She smiled truly happy that they had found their perfect men. They were set to have chubby cheeked children, but still no happily ever after for Ella. Ella isn’t a servant anymore but she still lives with her step mother who is an old woman. Ella has decided she doesn’t need a happily ever after because that is not an ending. It is just a pause.
