PART 8- The next morning, Belle woke up to the sound of dusting.. She saw a broom sweeping on its own and she was bewildered. She then remembers where she was. She yawned and scratched her tummy.. The broom spoke up,"Good Morning Young lady.." Belle murmered,"Good Morning Miss.Broom." 😆.. The broom said,"You can call me Babette.." Belle said,"Ok Babette.: Bebette went on with her dusting while Belle watched in awe.. Thn Mrs.Potts came bursting in with a tray filled with breakfast,"Good Morning Belle. Now, pip out of bed and eat ur breakfast before it turns cold." Belle smiled and said,"Ok Mrs.Potts." Belle started eating her breakfast. Mrs.Potts asked,"What do ur parents do my dear ?" Belle's face fell sober and she answered,"I dnt have anyone for a family Mrs.Potts.. I live all by myself." Mrs.Potts said,"Oh My Goodness.. Am really very sorry my dear. I shouldn't have asked you that.. Am really very sorry Belle." Belle said,"No no.. Its no problem Mrs.Potts. I've got used to it yet sometimes miss them. But with you here, I dnt miss them at all. You treat me like your own daughter." Mrs.Potts said,"My dear.. I have no kids of my own. U r my daughter and I wish that in my next birth, u will be born as my daughter." Belle had tears in her eyes and she said,"Mrs.Potts.. I wish you were my mother in my next birth." They both hugged each other.
Mrs.Potts's face became sad and she said,"But tht is impossible." belle broke the hug and asked,"Why not Mrs.Potts ?" Mrs.Potts said,"Look at me Belle.. Am a spirit. Unless the curse is uplifted, I cannot be a human again." Belle asked confused,"Wht curse Mrs.Potts ?" Mrs.Potts replied,"Its a long story my dear." Belle said,"Mrs.Potts. I can keep a secret." Mrs,Potts said,"I know my dear but am not sure if u will want to hear it." Belle urged,"Please go on Mrs.Potts." Mrs.Potts nodded her head and went into the story of how the castle ussed to be bursting wid happiness and hw the prince used to be and about the fateful birthday tht changed everything. After hearing this, Belle had tears in her eyes,"Mrs.Potts... Isn't there any way by which the curse can be uplifted ?" Mrs.Potts said,"Yes dear. There is.. The curse can be uplifted only if a girl enter Adam's life.. Not just any ordinary girl, bt a girl who has the courage and bravery to face Adam, a girl who can control Adam's emotions, a girl who can make him normal again." Belle sat there thinking and Mrs.Potts said,"My dear. You are tht girl." Belle was shocked and asked,"M...M...Me... ??? Mrs.Potts. There has to be a mistake.. I cnt be IT." Mrs.Potts smield and said,"I've been noticing Belle. I can see changes in Adam." Saying this, she went away with the breakfast tray..
Belle thought over and over again abt Mrs.Potts words..,"Could it be true ? I mean, am I the one ?" Thn she rubbished those thoughts,"I am confused.. I need to talk to sumone. Sumone who can understand and give sum advise." It was then tht Luminiere walked into the room wishing,"Happy Morning Belle.. " He then noticed Belle's focused face and said,"Wowow.. Luks like sumone is in deep thinking ?" Belle looked up at Luminiere who was giving her a knowing smile (U GUYS ARE ALL FAMILIAR WID THT KNOWING SMILE OF HIS.. DNT ASK ME HW DOES HE LOOK WID THT SMILE 😉).. Belle asked,"W...Wht ?" Luminiere asked,"Wht's troubling you Belle ? You dnt look yourself." Belle said,"Am all fine... Why do u ask tht ?" Luminiere smiled again and replied,"If u are really fine, thn wht is tht scowl on ur face doing there ?" Belle only then noticed on the mirror tht a scowl was on her face. She asked,"You do hav the talent to understand people well, dnt u Luminiere ?" Luminiere smiled and replied,"Its not abt understanding Belle. Its abt talent Belle.. Its abt how much u know abt tht person." Belle asked,"So u know well abt me, dnt you ?" Luminiere replied,"Not exactly.. Bt yes. A little bit." Belle asked,"Luminiere.. Cn I ask u sumthing ?" Luminiere nodded. Belle asked,"A few minutes ago, Mrs.Potts was telling me abt the upliftment of the curse. She thinks I am the girl who will uplife the curse. Is it true ?"
Luminiere smiled and replied,"I am not a fortune teller Belle.. I dnt look into people's future." Belle said,"You told u could understand people." Luminiere replied,"Yes Belle. I told I could understand people. Tht doesen't mean tht I can look into the future or fate of a person and tell them." Belle said,"Oh.. ok... But do u really think I am the one ? Tell me on the basis of ur understanding." Luminiere replied,"Belle.. It doesen't depend on my words nor my understanding. It all depends on faith and belief. To make anything successful, You need to believe in yourself.. If you believe tht you are the one , then you are it. If u dnt believe, thn nothing can be done about tht. Bt before taking any decision, think well. Ponder over past incidents and then take a decision.." He smiled at her and flew away leaving Belle to think over it. The beast was walking around in his room. Once in two minutes, he would look at the rose which was glowing brightly with a few petals down. Luminiere walked into the room and the beast turned with a growl.. Luminiere put his arms infront of him to protect himself ans exclaimed,"Wo beasty... Calm down.. Its me.. Your best friend Luminiere.. By the way, wht's with you today ? Why are you in a fowl mood ?"
The beast turned back and looked at the rose again. Luminiere sensed tht sumthing was really wrong and asked,"Wht's wrong Adam ?" The beast replied,"I want to stay away from her..." Luminiere asked,"Who ? Belle ?" The beast nodded. Luminiere asked,"But why Adam ?" The beast replied,"I am way too dangerous Luminiere. I might hurt her." Luminiere said,"You wnt hurt her Adam.. You are a good person." The beast growled,"I am an animal Luminiere.. I am a beast.. I am a creature.. And creatures hurt humans." Luminiere replied,"Physical appearance doesen't give u any answer Adam." The beast asked,"What do you mean ?" Luminiere replied,"I can always give you an example." The beast said,"Now dnt start with your soup and mango. Am tired of tht." 🤣... Luminiere said,"Y do always think like tht ? Anyways.. I can give you an example. Haveu ever heard of a nightingale ?" The beast said,"Yes.. Ofcourse.. I do know abt the nightingale. Wht abt tht ?" Luminiere asked,"How does it look ?" The beast replied,"Black and dark." Luminiere sais,"Yes.. You are correct. Do you know why nightingales are loved even though they are dark ?" The beast nodded,"No". Luminiere said,"Nightingales are knows for their beautiful voices. Their voices can take away any person's worries. They are loved inspite of their dars form." The beast asked,"Wht does that have to do with me ?" Luminiere sighed in frustration and said,"Wht do u have inside tht BIG ROUND HEAD OF URS ?"😆.. The beast glared at him.. Luminiere said,"You may be a beast Adam, but u r the same Adam I knew from the time, u were a human. Dnt underestimate yourself. I want to see the old Adam back.. The Adam who was conficent, strong, brave and funny." Saying this, Luminiere flew out happy that he has made the two of them to think..
