The prince reached out to her, and took her hand. He led her to the mirror, to the silvery pool of glass that would show her true reflection, the place where he would see her for who she was, not the person he wanted her to be but her inner core would be revealed.
The mirror would show her true nature, the very things that she hatedthe most about herself
would be shown to the world, and the man who had come to love her.
She shrank away from him, unable to approach the mirror and let him see her evil, unable ot amit ti o him who she really was. She wispered her protest,
"i can't "
he looked at her and replyed,
"you are beautiful"
"i'm not" came the answer,
"i'm not beautiful, i'm horrible and ugly! I have to be, other wise why would they keep me here, away from the world...why would they hate me, why would they abandon me?"
her words gushed out and once she
spoke she waited for the mans response. The prince said nothing. She
carried on, "i'm scared. I'm scared that when i look into the mirror you will
see me, you will see who i am and reject me." The prince looked at her, she bowed her head and waited for him ot speak
"i won't reject you my child, i promise i won't reject you, trust me and look"
He reached out to her, and guided to her to the mirror...
She looked down and heard the prince say "you're beautiful"she shook her head
She shook her head, he came to stand infront of her. Gripping her shoulders he spoke agina
"You are beautiful"
A tear fell down her face.
"look in the mirror"
She obeyed.
