“I think we ought to live happily ever after.”- Cinderella 2015
08 / 05 / 2015
Dear Fairy Diary,
Today was agonising. I watched as my beloved Cinderella's heart broke
as her sisters wined incessantly about the Prince's upcoming ball. Cinderella's step mother Lady
Tremaine has a Fairy God mother too, Agatha is her name. And ever day she just floats around, not lifting a finger to help. She only ever whispers
insults about Cinderella to ensure Ella's absence at the ball.
I constructed a secret room under Ella's bed so I can take in her mothers
wedding dress, just in case Ella finds a way to attend the ball. I am
being extremely secretive because if Agatha even smells a whiff of my
plans to send Ella to the ball - all fairy world will break lose.
I feel exasperated, I can only revel myself to Cinderella once in her
life and I'm worried that time is coming. Attending this ball will
change the course of her life, just one glance shared by her and the prince will
trigger their happy ever after. What if Agatha plans to stop Cinderella
before she gets to the ball?
If only Cinderella knew that her and the prince are destined to be
together, her father always said so, too. But after his passing she
forgot her dreams and can only think about her daily torture - it's all
part of Lady Tremaines spell. Agatha has been doing everything possible
to keep Cinderella outside of the princes thoughts, even sending him
anonymous pxts of Cinderellas two-step sisters, although the pictures
have had a lot of photoshop done to them, and rightly so.

Dear Fairy Diary,
I can't spread my wings to fall asleep, so Im flying around researching Fairy God Mother spells and I just read the perfect one. If all goes
right, I will show Cinderella her mothers wedding dress in a dream
tonight, she will find it tomorrow and start to day dream about the
ball. At which point I will block her thoughts from Agatha. I will
ensure her tardiness to the ball, and then her sisters wont's see her,
as they'll be gorging themselves by then.
If all goes wrong, I will have no choice but to show myself and take
cinderella there myself. This shan't happen, my wings cannot perceive
what could go wrong. I love my cinderella, she is so kind and sweet and
she will finally be happy... Only three days till the ball. Only three
days till true love prevails.

Dear Fairy Diary,
It worked! Cinderella found her mothers wedding dress, it fits
perfectly. Agatha has no idea what is coming, she will most certainly
only be worried about putting a spell on Lady Tremaine and her daughters
so they appear beautiful tomorrow night. Although all our power spells
only last 4 hours so I need to be weary that the ladies will be leaving
promptly after the ball. There is only 1 day left now, and not too much
to do aside from the usual assisting Ella with her chores. Tomorrow is the day! Time to sprinkle fairy dust over this beautiful girl and let
her rest.

FAIRY DIARY!
FAIRY DIARY!
Today Cinderella and I returned from picking berries to find her mother's
wedding dress torn into shreds and sitting in an ugly pile on the floor. My
wings went into a spin as I could smell the fairy dust that lingered in
the room. Ella thought it was her sisters, I knew who it really
was, AGATHA.
This left no time, with only 7 hours till the ball Cinderella was
devastated, she sat on the ground weeping. The last thing she had of her
mothers was gone. I could easily put it back together but not without
showing myself. The risk was far too high.
I fluttered to the Princes Palace and saw his father was pressuring him
to make an announcement; he would chose a wife tonight, or forfeit the
crown. No doubt that was Agatha's evil doing, placing thoughts into the
Kings mind.
I returned home and couldn't help but weep when I again saw Cinderella's
devastation. We sat on her floor crying just long enough for Agatha to
see and perform her dramatic hyena laugh.
The next 3 hours were torture. The smell of fairy dust and Ella's tears,
the two worst smells in the world surrounded me. I made time stand for a
while so I could think about the pros and cons of showing myself to
Cinderella. I couldn't make up my mind until I heard Ella whisper "No
one cares for me, I mays well run away, never to return." That was too
much! It took all my strength to change forms, but there I was no longer
invisible, no longer fluttering but standing in front of my love
Cinderella.
She gasped, I giggled.
"No time to waste" I said. She gasped again.
"Who are you? " Ella asked.
"I'm your fairy God Mother. I am here to get you to the ball." My words floated out and hung in the air.
Ella smiled as wide as I'd ever seen. "I've never been so lucky."
I flew us outside and there we stood as I fixed the dress and placed her in it. The rest was easy, fairy spells 101, mice into horses, the dog into a footman, pumpkin into carriage and of course, her tears into glass slippers.
"How can I thank you?" Ella tenderly asked.
"Be home by midnight and tell me how he kisses." I said with a wink.
"Of course" She trailed of in a daze as the horse rode off.
And here I am, floating in the corner of the palace. I can see that all the prince is thinking of is his true princess. Their "Happy Ever After" has been started.
And no one, not even Agatha can stop true love.
My work her is done.
