SNOW WHITE

A long time ago, a child was born to a queen and king and she was called Snow White.
When the queen died, the king married again. This new queen was wicked and hated
Snow white. The queen gave orders that Snow White was to be treated as a servant.
Snow White grew very beautiful and one day a Prince riding by, saw her at work and fell
in love with her.
The queen was beautiful too, and every day she asked her Magic Mirror, "Who is the
fairest in the land?" and the mirror always answered, "You are the fairest one of all".
But one day the mirror answered Snow White was the fairest in the land, and in a rage
the queen gave orders to one of her Huntsmen to take Snow White into the woods and
kill her.
The Huntsman had a kind heart and couldn't do the deed so told her to run away. She
fled into the woods where Seven little dwarfs lived. Their house was small and strange.

Snow White entered the little house and finding it very untidy, started to clean up.
Upstairs she found seven little beds. She was very tired and stretching out on one of the
beds, was soon asleep.
When the Dwarfs came home they were surprised to find Snow White and after some
argument, decided to let her stay. She promised to cook and look after them.
The Queen discovered where Snow White was living and disguising herself as a witch,
took a poisoned apple and set out for the Dwarfs cottage. She gave Snow White the
poisoned apple to eat and as soon as she bit the apple, she sank into unconsciousness.
Thinking she was dead, the Dwarfs built a glass coffin and put her in it. For days she lay
in the forest in her glass coffin. One day, the Prince was riding through the forest looking
for Snow White and found her. He leaned over and kissed her. She opened her eyes and
sat up with a smile. Everyone was happy. The Prince took Snow White to his palace
where they were married and lived happily ever after.

THE PRINCESS AND THE PEA

There once was a prince who wanted to marry a princess, but it had to be real princess.
So he went all over the world looking for a real princess. Everywhere he met young ladies
told him they were real princess, but could never be completely sure that this was true.
There was always something about them that did not seem quite right. And so, after
along time, the prince went back home to his parents and was very sad.
One evening there was a terrible storm. It rained heavily and there was thunder and
lightning in the sky above the royal castle. Then there was a knock at the castle gate.
The old king went out to see who it could be.
A princess was standing outside the gate. The rain ran down over her hair and clothes
and into her shoes. She told the king that she was a real princess, and he asked her to
come inside.
Well, said the old queen. Well soon find out if that is true. She went into the guest
bedroom and took the mattress and blanket of the bed. Then she put a little green pea
on the bed. She put twenty mattress on top of the pea, and then twenty mattress on top
of the pea, and then twenty blankets on top of the mattress. This was where the princess
was going to spend the night.
The next morning the queen asked the princess how she had slept.
oh, it was terrible answered the princess. didnt close my eyes all night. I dont know
what was in my bed, but I lay on something hard, and now I am black and blue all over. It
was quite a terrible night.
Now, the king, the queen and the prince could be sure that this was a real princess she
had felt the little pea trough twenty mattresses and twenty blankets. Only a real princess
will be able to do that.

So the prince married the princess and the pea was put in a museum for everyone to
see, unless someone has taken it, its still there today.

RAPUNZEL

There once lived a man and a woman who always wished for a child, but could not have
one. These people had a little window at the back of their house from which a splendid
garden could be seen. The garden was full of the most beautiful flowers and herbs. It
was, however, surrounded by a high wall, and no one dared to go into it because it
belonged to an witch, who had great power and was feared by all the world.
One day the woman was standing by the window and looking down into the garden,
when she saw a bed which was planted with the most tasty rapunzel. It looked so fresh
and green that she longed for it and had the greatest desire to eat some. This desire
increased every day. The woman knew that she could not get any of it and grew more
pale and miserable each day.
Her husband was worried about her and asked "What is wrong my dear?"
"Ah," she replied, "if I can't eat some of the rapunzel from the garden behind our house I
think I shall die."
The man, who loved her, thought, "Sooner than let my lovely wife die, I will bring her
some of the rapunzel myself, no matter what the cost."
In the twilight of the evening, he climbed over the wall into the garden of the witch,
hastily grabbed a handful of rapunzel and took it to his wife. She at once made herself a
salad and ate it happily. She, however, liked it so much -- so very much, that the next
day she longed for it three times as much as before. If he was to have any rest, her
husband must once more descend into the garden. In the gloom of evening, therefore,
he set out again; but when he had climbed over the wall he was terribly afraid, for he
saw the witch standing before him.
"How dare you," she said with angry look, "sneak into my garden and steal my rapunzel
like a thief? You shall suffer for this!"

"Ah," the frightened husband answered, "please have mercy, I had to have the rapunzel.
My wife saw it from the window and felt such a longing for it that she would have died if
she had not got some to eat."
Then the witch allowed her anger to be softened, and said to him, "If this is true, I will
allow you to take as much as you like, only I make one condition. You must give me the
baby daughter your wife will bring into the world; she shall be well treated, and I will care
for it like a mother." The man in his fear consented and when the baby was born the
witch appeared at once, gave the child the name of Rapunzel and took the baby away
with her.
Rapunzel grew into the most beautiful child beneath the sun. When she was twelve
years old, the witch shut her into a tower, which lay in a forest. The tower had no stairs
or doors, but only a little window at the very top. When the witch wanted to go in, she
stood beneath the window and cried,
"Rapunzel, Rapunzel,
Let down your hair."
Rapunzel had magnificent long hair, fine as spun gold, and when she heard the voice of
the witch she wound her braids round one of the hooks of the window, and then the hair
fell down the side of the tower and the witch climbed up by it.
After a year or two, it came to pass that the Prince rode through the forest and went by
the tower. He heard a song which was so lovely that he stood still and listened. This was
Rapunzel who in her loneliness passed her time singing. The Prince wanted to climb up
to her, and looked for the door of the tower, but none was to be found. He rode home,
but the singing had so deeply touched his heart, that every day he went out into the
forest and listened to it.
Once when he was standing behind a tree listening to Rapunzel's song, he saw the witch
come and heard how she cried,
"Rapunzel, Rapunzel,
Let down your hair."
Then Rapunzel let down the braids of her hair, and the witch climbed up to her.
"If that is the ladder by which one mounts, I will for once try my fortune," thought the
Prince and the next day when it began to grow dark, he went to the tower and cried,
"Rapunzel, Rapunzel,
Let down your hair."
Immediately the hair fell down and the Prince climbed up.
At first Rapunzel was terribly frightened when a man such as her eyes had never seen,
came to her; but the Prince began to talk to her quite like a friend and told her that his
heart had been so stirred by her singing that it had let him have no rest. Then Rapunzel
lost her fear, and when he asked her if she would take him for her husband -- and she
saw that he was kind and handsome, she said yes, and laid her hand in his.
She said, "I will willingly go away with you, but I do not know how to get down. Bring a
bit of silk with you every time you come and I will weave a ladder with it. When that is
ready I will climb down and we shall escape together." They agreed that until that time
he should come to her every evening, for the old woman came by day.

The witch knew nothing of this, until once Rapunzel said in her distraction, "Oh my, you
are so much heavier when you climb than the young Prince."
"Ah! you wicked child," cried the witch "What do I hear thee say! I thought I had
separated you from all the world but you have deceived me."
In her anger she clutched Rapunzel's beautiful hair, seized a pair of scissors -- and snip,
snap -- cut it all off. Rapunzel's lovely braids lay on the ground but the witch was not
through. She was so angry that she took poor Rapunzel into a desert where she had to
live in great grief and misery.
The witch rushed back to the tower and fastened the braids of hair which she had cut off,
to the hook of the window, and when the Prince came and cried,
"Rapunzel, Rapunzel,
Let down your hair,"
she let the hair down. The Prince climbed to the window, but he did not find his dearest
Rapunzel above, but the witch, who gazed at him with a wicked and venomous look.
"Aha!" she cried mockingly, "You've come for Rapunzel but the beautiful bird sits no
longer singing in the nest; the cat has got it and will scratch out your eyes as well.
Rapunzel is banished and you will never see her again!"
The Prince was beside himself and in his despair he fell down from the tower. He
escaped with his life, but the thorns into which he fell pierced his eyes. Then he
wandered quite blind about the forest, ate nothing but roots and berries and did nothing
but weep over the loss of his dearest Rapunzel.
In this way, the Prince roamed in misery for some months and at length came to the
desert where the witch had banished Rapunzel. He heard a voice singing and it seemed
so familiar to him that he went towards it. When he approached, Rapunzel knew him and
fell into his arms and wept.
Two of her tears fell on his eyes and the Prince could see again. He led her to his
kingdom where he was joyfully received, and they lived for a long time afterwards, happy
and contented.

PINOKIO

Geppetto, a poor old wood carver, was making a puppet from a tree branch. "You shall be
my little boy," he said to the puppet, "and I shall call you 'Pinocchio'." He worked for
hours, carefully carving each detail. When he reached the mouth, the puppet started
making faces at Geppetto. "Stop that, you naughty boy," Geppetto scolded, "Stop that at
once !" "I won't stop !" cried Pinocchio.
"Of course I can, silly," said the puppet. "You've given me a mouth to talk with." Pinocchio
rose to his feet and danced on the table top. "Look what I can do !" he squealed.
"Pinocchio, this is not the time to dance," Geppetto explained. "You must get a good
night's rest. Tomorrow you will start going to school with the real boys. You will learn
many things, including how to behave."
"You can talk !" exclaimed Geppetto.
On his way to school the next morning, Pinocchio stopped to see a puppet show. "I can
dance and sing better than those puppets and I don't need strings," boasted Pinocchio.
He climbed onto the stage.
"Get off my stage," roared the Puppet Master. Then he noticed how much the crowd liked
Pinocchio. He did not say anything and let Pinocchio stay. "Here, you've earned five
copper coins," the Puppet Master told Pinocchio.
"Take these coins and go straight home," said the Puppet Master. Pinocchio put the coins
into his sack.
He did not go very far before he met a lame Fox and a blind Cat. Knowing that Pinocchio
had money, they pretended to be his friends. "Come with us. We'll teach you how to turn
those copper pieces into gold," coaxed the sneaky Cat.

"We want to help you get rich. Plant your coins under this magic tree. In a few hours
they'll turn to gold," said the Fox.
"Show me where," said Pinocchio excitedly. The Cat and Fox pointed to a patch of loose
dirt.
Pinocchio dug a hole and put the sack in it, marking the spot with a stone.
"Splendid !" exclaimed the Cat. "Now let's go to the inn for supper." After supper, the Fox
and Cat, who weren't really lame or blind, quickly snuck away and disguised themselves
as thieves. They hid by the tree waiting for Pinocchio to come back and dig up the
money. After Pinocchio dug up the coins they pounced on him.
"Give us your money !" they ordered. But Pinocchio held the sack between his teeth and
resisted to give the sack to them. Again they demanded, "Give us your money !"
Pinocchio's Guardian Fairy, who was dressed all in blue and had blue hair, sent her dog,
Rufus, to chase the Fox and Cat away. She ordered Rufus to bring Pinocchio back to her
castle. "Please sit down," she told Pinocchio. Rufus kept one eye open to watch what was
going on.
"Why didn't you go to school today?" she asked Pinocchio in a sweet voice.
"I did," answered Pinocchio. Just then, his nose shot out like a tree branch. "What's
happening to my nose?" he cried.
"Every time you tell a lie, your nose will grow. When you tell the truth, it will shrink," said
the Blue Fairy. "Pinocchio, you can only become a real boy if you learn how to be brave,
honest and generous."
The Blue Fairy told Pinocchio to go home and not to stop for any reason. Pinocchio tried
to remember what the Blue Fairy told him.
On the way to home he met some boys. "Come with us," said the boys. "We know a
wonderful place filled with games, giant cakes, pretty candies, and circuses." The boys
didn't know that if you were bad, you were turned into donkeys and trained for the circus.
It was not very long before the boys began changing into donkeys. "That's what happens
to bad boys," snarled the Circus Master as he made Pinocchio jump through a hoop.
Pinocchio could only grow a donkey's ears, feet, and tail, because he was made of wood.
The Circus Master couldn't sell him to any circus. He threw Pinocchio into the sea. The
instant Pinocchio hit the water, the donkey tail fell off and his own ears and feet came
back. He swam for a very long time. Just when he couldn't swim any longer, he was
swallowed by a great whale. "It's dark here," scared Pinocchio said.
Pinocchio kept floating deep into the whale's stomach. "Who's there by the light?" called
Pinocchio, his voice echoing.
"Pinocchio, is that you?" asked a tired voice.

"Father, you're alive !" Pinocchio shouted with joy. He wasn't scared anymore. Pinocchio
helped Geppetto build a big raft that would hold both of them. When the raft was
finished, Pinocchio tickled the whale. "Hold tight, Father. When he sneezes, he'll blow us
out of here !" cried Pinocchio.
Home at last, Geppetto tucked Pinocchio into his bed. "Pinocchio, today you were brave,
honest and generous," Geppetto said. "You are my son and I love you."
Pinocchio remembered what the Blue Fairy told him. "Father, now that I've proven myself,
I'm waiting for something to happen," he whispered as he drifted off to sleep.
The next morning Pinocchio came running down the steps, jumping and waving his arms.
I He ran to Geppetto shouting, "Look Father, I'm a real boy !"

I would be separated.
"Hey Ela, you are again doing? I miss you .. "
"Hi Bayu, is not it just yesterday we met, how you anyway?"
"Ela, well yes you there, keep yourself and do not ever forget me yes dear."
"You're talking about Bayu?

"Bayu, you're doing? I want you to love me confidence to make friends with my friends.
Originally you know I'm grateful for this very same God that I could've had you. "
"Yeah Ela, and provided you know my love is bigger than you ever imagined so far."
One thing is what always feared Bayu, he always said I would be tempted by the guys on
campus, while I'm not so? In fact I am the worst fear Bayu that will turn away from me,
he will go left me forever, and love lost for me. Bayu now working in one of the leading
foreign companies in this city, as a guy that we saw with the first impression, he was the
guy who only dream of every girl, because Bayu have everything, with a capital of a
handsome face, good attitude, an established work , I will fear he'll go away from me, if if
there is a girl who is more attractive than me, more equal with him.
Bayu held my hand so tight, I feel comfort when he held my hand. I feel the love so
strong for me. When we walked into a bookstore, Bayu said he'd buy me a book of
literature that had already been read and sekrang he wanted me to also read the book.
After paying the book Bayu, Bayu immediately handed it to me. I was shocked to read
the synopsis, it turns out that the book contains about the power of sincere love, which
eventually separated by death, and how pain is the heart of a lover in the face of death
events.
"Bayu, why do you love me a book like this?"
"Ela, I really want you read this book, because if you read this book, you'll better
understand what love is true again, you will feel how very insignificant person who loves
you, just a good story deh, you're definitely not gonna regret it if read this book, and
after reading it, I'm also sure you will be more dear to me, he-he ... he-he ... "
Really? time just because I could read this book the more love you. "
"Uh, truth, believe me as I am. If not, you may musuhin Ntar deh me again like before. "
"Bayu! You say hell is hell, yes already, already, I read the book, you think I would be
happy if we hostility well again. "
Bayu weird today. This afternoon he is not talking-not on the phone, and tonight he also
told me to read a book whose contents weird, about death. Suddenly my heart beat fast,
said the death was ringing in my ears. Somehow I increasingly fear, fear of death, fear of
losing. Grip the more I reinforced to her waist Bayu, I hug pungungnya and I lean my face
over there. I felt again when I'm with Bayu, Bayu is probably smiling because he felt a
great love for him.
While riding his motorcycle, he occasionally looked back to see me, Bayu like people who
are concerned. Weird, along the way I continue meditation. And finally the sound of hard
and make great shock I was shocked, not only shocks, but the incredible pain in my head,
I feel dizzy feel like the world is spinning very fast once, my vision blurred, I tried to wake
myself, what really happened. Suddenly I saw Bayu who was sleeping on the streets,
vaguely I see him as if to sleep soundly, I felt a dream, which may Bayu sleeping on the
street, a new feeling before I lift with him. I walked over to him, but the people who
crowded first approached him, I got hurt, I'm not strong anymore and finally that I see
only darkness.
"Ela, you okay darling, it's Mama."
I looked at Mama's face. He's like a scared, I looked around, I suddenly realized, briefly

recalled the incident last night again to me.

"Mom, Bayu Where? He wrote it all right? "
"Ela, later wrote, you take a break, you are still sick unfortunately."
"No Mom, Ela do not feel sick all right, now want to see Bayu Ela, where he Mom?"
"Ela, wound you have not dried completely, you'd keep if you sick."
"Mom, Ela do not feel pain, truth, do not know why Ela feel healthy and strong Mom, now
just want to see Bayu Ela, surely this time he really butuhin Elah."
"Elah, now Bayu not need anyone else, she's already safe Ela, she's already quiet in
there, now already happy with her own life, there is that keeps him there."
"What? What mom, mean Mom? Mom lied! Ela can not believe, no way, no way it
happened at Bayu, she's already promised Ma'll never ninggalin Ela, her dear Ela, Ela
Bayu Ma dear .... no, not possible ....
Screams make all the sisters came to my place, they tried to calm me, but I can not, my
tears flowed incessantly, one of his sisters just going to give me a sedative injection, but
I quickly elakkan.
"Please do not nurse, at the moment I do not need it, I just want to cry, I'm not willing,
I'm mad at Bayu, why did he dare go out me, even though he had already promised not
to ever go away from me, but why Bayu lie, why now he's just gone forever, and I know
he'll never come back again for me? Why do you lef me Bayu? "
"Ela, this is already her fate, Bayu've run out of time in the world, you do not even mad
at Bayu affection. You must be sure about now Bayu already happy there. "
"Mom, why exactly Bayu, why go to Ela wrote that there? Ela want kok Mom, Replacing
Bayu, because unfortunately the same Ela Bayu Mom, or allow to be with him now Ela,
after him, mom, Ela do not want to live in this world without him, Ma useless, useless if
nobody here Bayu, Ela live there do not mean anything. "
Quickly the sisters was holding my whole body, and a moment later I was asleep, in
dreamland Bayu came to me. With the all-white clothing Bayu smiled at me, he walked
toward me, he seemed delighted, as if he's getting a new happiness, which is second to
none in the world, look at Bayu keep smiling, I thought I'd love to come with him, to feel
happiness he felt at this time. I tried to hug him and hold his hand, he replied to my
arms, she held me, comfort with him, I feel he gave me the strength, toughness, she
stroked my hair with a full sense of affection, but she slowly released me, he would stay
away from me, the more distant , far and away from my vision.
When I realized I was crying again, I'm not crying because the pain in my head, but I cry
because my heart feels very sick. Now the world feels dark to me, the rain not only
soaked the earth, but the rain soaking my life, my heart as if it did not stop crying,
weeping for those who have gone forever, he'll never come back again.
Suddenly, my eyes fixed on a book on the table, I just remembered that it is a book
bought for Bayu yesterday. I open one by one page book, a few minutes later I was
immersed in the story. I cried reading that book, at first glance as though I saw the face
of Bayu smiling at the overcast sky outside.
For some reason now I again felt the power, the power of love given by Bayu, I feel him
near me, arms around me, calm me, I can feel the love and affection. Bayu, I really love
and cherish you, I'm sure you're happy there, although you've gone from my life, but
you'll never get out of my heart, you are immortal for me, Bayu. I'll prove it, your death
will never end my love is not .***
