“In short, fairy tales are such a picture that we can all find ourselves in it.”

There was once a rich man whose wife lay sick,and when she felt her end drawing near she called to her only  doughter to come near her bed and saidindi "Dear child,be pious and good, and God will always take care of you and I will down upon you from heaven and will be with you." And then she closed her eyes and expired. the maiden went every day to her mother's grave and wept  and was always pious and good. When the winter came the snow covered the grave with a white covering, and when the sun came in the early spring and melted it away, the man took the himself another wilf The new wife brought two daughters home with her…

At first, the maiden felt happy because she would have fellows for her recompensation however everything went wrong with these new people. Her stepmother didn't like her and behaved her like a servant when her husband away for his works. The young girl was cleaning home, ironing clothes of her sisters in law and cooking all day which felt her into despair. She lost her mother in more recent times and was reclused to home with a burden of houseworks on her shoulders. When her father returned home, her mother and sisters in law used to be nice to her so her father used to think that they were getting along well altogether.The young girl had to find a way to get rid of these people but she did not want to upset her father too.

 She wanted to speak with her friends but her stepmother did not allow her to meet other people.She couldn't stand the torture any longer. How could she be saved? She thought she had no other choice and started making plans to escape. But where would she go? She thought of Aunt Mary, who lived in the town a few miles from their home. She had last seen her at her mother's funeral. Would her aunt accept her? She had absolutely no idea about it. However, she risked everything and started to make a plan to escape. Her aunt's house was quite far away. She could reach her aunt's house on foot for at least five days. She secretly began to hide half of her food every day. She also put her mother's old coat and her mother's hair comb in her bag. She also put a small knife in case of any danger.

At the of a week, she completed her preparations. Now she was waiting for the right time to run away from home. She couldn't set out at night,that would have been quite dangerous. She had to leave after her father left for work. Her stepmother and stepsisters would go out after dad went to work and wander around until evening. This would save time. Yes, she was determined… She couldn't sleep with joy as she thought it was her last night in this house. At last she had sunk into the morning. However, she did not wake up in the morning. She prepared breakfast every day. The stepmother, suspicious of the situation, entered her room angrily. The stepmother, said,, “Get up, lethargic, get breakfast ready!”.
