ANOTHER CINDERELLA STORY: WILL CONTINUE - Page 3

Belle was sleeping and Mrs.Potts and Luminiere were looking at each other in anxiousness.. Luminiere asked,"Mrs.Potts. Do you think she will be alright ?" Mrs.Potts said,"Ofcourse she will be alright Luminiere.. Think positive." Belle let out a moan in her sleep. Mrs.Potts said,"See Luminiere.. I told you she would be alright." Belle opened her eyes and saw Mrs.Potts and Luminiere hovering over her. Lumirniere said before Belle could speak anything,"Oh please. Nw dnt start screaming. V dnt hunt humans." Belle said,"I wnt scream. I know abt u guys. Bt wht was tht huge figure ?" Mrs.Potts said,"That is our master.." Belle asked,"Master ? I dnt understand it. People in my village told that since the royal family disappeared, spirits have haunted this castle." Lumieniere said,"Ha.. Bluffers..." Mrs.Potts said,"My dear.. I think you should rest a little more.. I will make sure that you get something to eat.. Come along Luminiere." Mrs.Potts and Luminiere went and Belle was left to herself. She kept thinking about the creature that scared her and was intrigued by it.

Meanwhile down in the kitchen, Mrs.Potts was preparing tea for Belle and Luminiere was just flying about.. The beast came in and muttered a gruff Mrs.Potts. She asked him,"What was that ?" The beast asked,"What ?" Mrs.Potts said,"You scared that poor girl." The beast asked,"Who gave her permission to enter my castle and enjoy everything ?" Mrs.Potts said,"That does not give you the reason to scare that poor thing." The beast said,"I did not want her here." Mrs.Potts said,"Then let her go." The beast's eyes widened and it said,"No.. She will not be going anywhere."Mrs.Potts asked,"Why ?" The beast replied,"She has enters my premises.. She is my prisoner now. She will not be leaving anywhere. By the way, did I scare her too much ?" Mrs.Potts replied,"You have no idea of how much that poor thing is scared. She fell unconsious and now I am going to make her well.. She took the tray and before she exited, she said,"And do apologise to her. If u cnt apologise atleast try to." Mrs.Potts went away and only Luminiere was there..

The beast asked,"Luminiere. Do you think I should apologise to that girl ?" Luminiere said,"My friend. If you really think wht you did was right, then there is no need for apologising. If you think wht you have done is wrong you have to apologise." TYhe beast asked,"How will I know whether I am right or wrong ?" Luminiere replied,"You know you are wrong Adam. You felt guilty for scaring that poor girl."Adam shouted,"Never.. I am not guilty." Luminiere said,"Eyes speak my friend. When the girl went unconsious, I saw your eyes soften. And today, when Mrs.Potts asked you to leave that girl, I could feel your eyes widen. When you asked Mrs.Potts whether you scared that girl too much, your eyes spoke that you feel guilty. Dnt try to hide anything from me Adam. I know more about you than you yourself know." Saying this, Luminiere left the room leaving the beast all alone to think..

Mrs.Potts entered the room wth a tray and set it beside Belle. Belle asked,"Mrs.Potts. You are a ghost. You are supposed to be transparent. Hw did you carry the tray ?" Mrs.Potts replied,"My dear. We aren't spirits. We became spirits due to the curse. We are humans in the form of spirits.." Belle asked,"May I know the story of it ?" Mrs.Potts said,"Now now dear. First, lets get you healthy." Luminiere came in at that time. The food had gone cold and Luminiere used his hands to heat it up. Belle asked,"How did you do tht ?" Luminiere replied,"I used to be the head of the kitchen and the minister. When the curse was inflicted upon us, we all turned into spirits with an image of what we did as humans." Belle smiled and said,"Thank You Luminiere." Luminiere stared at her and nodded his head..
