The Story of the Beautiful Scars

I once was beautiful. I had the world at my doorsteps. I was loved by many. I was the heart of my people. People from around the world would come to see me. They would come to meet me at my father's mansion. I was the delight of many. It wasn't always like that. I did not always think highly of myself. I did not always gloated. It so happened that I met this fairy woman who told me everything I wanted. She told me everything that I could be . She impressed my father. She came to my father's mansion and she convinced him to let me see the world. And I wanted to be free. I wanted the adventure. And father allowed me to travel with some servants. I was so happy. And the Fairy Woman gave me a contract and she said I could get out of it whenever. And after I signed the contract, she said Sign your life away. I never knew what that meant. But I was free to discovered and to be discovered. I was no longer a beauty statue in my father's museum.

So we travelled the world. We went to Paris and we went to Rome. Paris was lovely and Rome was magnificent. I could keep living my life this way for the rest of the my life. I was adorned with the most beautiful gowns. They were made by the finest designers in Europe. And I was not missing home. I was not missing father. Yet sometimes I missed him. I missed some time to think. I missed some time to read. And the walks in the park around the mansion. The Fairy Woman said You will have time for that. You will have time for doing what you so loved. But my darling you must continually share your beauty. Your beauty with the world.

Then one night under the stars of Europe, I wished for everything to be back the same. I wished to no longer be beautiful. I was tired of the attention. I was tired of the looks. I was tired of the center of conversation. I was crying every night. And the Fairy Woman found out and was angry. After months and months of working, she exclaimed You are tearing down people who loved you. You are tearing down people who care. Why did you drag along? You want to be free. And the Fairy Woman beat me and she let me go on a one way trip home.

On the trip home, I wondered if father would remember me. I wonder if father would care. I spent so much time away from him. And I was so wrapped up in my own confusion and hurt. I forgot father's love. My escort was nice and sweet. He attended to my needs and cares. And when I became close within the country of father. I held back and asked for a mirror, which I did not see in months since the fight with the Fairy Woman. My only faithful guard held it for me. I screamed. The guard said Mosa Ella what? I could barely say, the scars and I begin to cry all of a sudden, They are horrible. I can't see father like this. And the guard reminded her that he is your father and loves you plus the scars are beautiful and you are beautiful. I would marry you if you have no one. You are very much lovely, you really are. You are free of that horrible world. You are free of that evil witch. She was stealing from you anyways. You know. She was robbing you.

Then there was this old gentleman on a beautiful horse, he asked if he could help. And Mosa Ella turned and signaled that she did not want help. And the old gentleman came from the horse and he saw her. He said Mosa. Ella it is I your father. What happened? I don't want to know. I don't want to know. All I know is my prayers have been answered. You are safe. Come home. You don't have to do anything you don't want just come back with me. Come back home. And Mosa Ella eventually stopped crying and she decided to come back home and lived the rest of her life under the care of her father. Eventually she was happy again and her scars barely there. And she befriended the guard who took care of her and they became close. Her scars became her beauty. And her beauty was being finally free and being a better self.
