Ever After
Chapter 1- Once Upon A Time
"Milady, your grandchildren have arrive." Said a young servant girl.
"Ok then, tell them I'll be down in a minute." A beautiful woman said, as she was drinking tea in front of a fireplace. The servant nodded and left without saying anything. Then the lady stood up and looked outside the window seeing three children running around and playing. She sighed, "They've grown so much since the last time I saw them! Oh, I better get downstairs!"
Outside
All three children were jumping around, happy to see their grandmother again. There was a 9-year old girl, who was looking up at the sky, and a 7-year girl old playing with her brother who was 3-years old.
The oldest one came running to her mother and father when they came out of the carriage saying, "Mother! Father! Do you really have to go? Why can't you stay here with us?"
Mother said, "Don't worry, Miki! We'll be back in no time! It's only for two days!"
"It's sounds like forever to me!"Miki said, who had tears on her eyes.
Then Father picked her up and said,"Miki, don't cry! You'll be here with grandma! Ok? I want you to be good for your grandma, and to take care of your brother and sister, while we're gone. We have to leave soon, but we don't want to leave knowing that your sad, so smile for us!"
"Okay!" Miki said smiling, "Look, its grandma!" Miki ran to her and gave her a big hug.
The beautiful woman who was upstairs a minute ago, said, "Oh, I missed you so much!"
Then the 7-year old came and gave her a hug also.
Grandma said, "Ami! Oh you look so beautiful! You've grown so much!" The mother came up and kissed her in the cheek, "Hello, Mother! Thank you so much for watching them!"
Then Father came up, holding the brother and said, "Hello! This little one is…Hiro! Hiro this is your grandmother!"
"Oh let me get a look at you!" Grandma said, taking Hiro from father, "He looks so handsome! We're going to have fun tonight aren't we?"
Then mother said, "We better get going, or else we're going to be late! Bye, Miki! Take care of your bother and sister! Bye Ami! Be good to your grandmother! Bye Hiro! I'll miss you!" Mother kissed and then hugged them and so did father. After they all said their goodbyes they walked up to the carriage and said, "Thanks again, mother! We'll be back soon!"
"Ok then, let's go inside, before you get a cold!" The grandmother said, walking towards the door.
Then Miki said, "Wait! It's tradition. Mum and Dad always wave at the gate!" When Miki saw that her parents waved at them she followed her bother and sister went inside with their grandmother. Once they went in, Ami said, "Wow! You have a big house grandma!" "It's so beautiful!" Miki added.
"Thank you! This house was really my grandmother. Okay now! All of you could sit down over here." Grandmother said, pointing to the couch, "While I get you some food!" After she said that, she left them alone in front on the fireplace. They were sitting in silence until Ami said, "Miki? When are mother and father coming back?"
"Soon Ami. Don't worry! Mother left us here so we could spend time with Grandma." Miki answered.
"Here you go! You must be cold standing outside for a long time! So eat this it'll make you warmer!" Grandmother said, feeding Hiro some soup.
Then Ami said, "Umm…grandmother what are we going to do for the rest of the day?"
"Well, we could do whatever you want!"
Miki said, "Then can you tell us a story? Mother said you tell the best stories ever!"
"Yea! You can tell us a story! But it has to have a happy ending!" Ami said cheerfully.
"Story!"Hiro said aloud.
Grandmother giggled, picked up Hiro, and said, "Alright then! I think I know the perfect story to tell you!"
"It's based on a true story, that happened not too long ago!"
"Oh really! Tell us about it!" Ami said.
"It's about a peasant girl who had a miserable life!" Their grandmother said.
Then Miki said, "Oh! I think I know this story! But I never knew it was true!"
Grandmother giggled, "It's because you never asked. Well…this story is a little bit different then the others you've heard."
Then Grandmother picked up Hiro and said, "Oh, what's that phrase again? Oh yes! Once upon a time…"
