"Ugh...I'm so bored!" Herah exclaimed. It was the day right after the party and the hype. Not only that, the step mom was out getting dinner because she wanted to customize the dessert which was cupcakes.

"Me too! Let's go in the living room to see if there's anything good to do." Sarah replied.

The girls walked to the living room and began searching for something interesting to do. While they were looking, something caught Herah's eyes. She slowly walked to the bookshelf and pulled out a thick brown book called "Cinderella".

Before Herah began reading, she called Sarah over. "Come here Sarah! Come look at this book!"

Sarah saw the book she yelled, "Hey! Isn't that the book we got into?!"

"Yes, I know! Hurry up! Sit down so we can look at it!" Herah rushed Sarah.

When Sarah sat down, they began reading the book.

While the two girls were reading the book, Jennifer went off to the tailor to pick up the step mom's dress. She hated working for her and hated the fact that she was Cinderella, but something inside her just couldn't stop. She just felt like she had to be Cinderella.

When Jennifer went into the tailor shop, a great surprise was standing right in front of her: Alex!

Jennifer waited for the perfect moment. As soon as Alex's servant and the shopkeeper left to get his suit, Jennifer went up to Alex and started talking to him.

"Alex! How did you get in this story?!" Jennifer shouted.

"Je-Jennifer?!! What??!! How'd you know it was me? And how did YOU get in this book? I thought I was the only one! I was so scared and confused..." Alex replied and gave a hug to Jennifer.

Jennifer was blushing and she was so HAPPY that she could fly!

After the happy moment, Jennifer started explaining to him about how she was with her sisters reading a book in the library and suddenly she was Cinderella. She told him that her two twin sisters came in the story as well and how she saw Alex when he came to the town.

"Oh! So that's what happened!! And YOU'RE Cinderella?? Wow! Thank God. The ball is going to be in a few days from now.. Can't wait to see you there!" Alex said happily.

"Master! Your ride is ready." Alex's servant called.

"Hey, I'll see ya later! Bye Jennifer!" Alex shouted as he walked out of the tailor shop.

"Bye!" Jennifer waved excitedly. She got the stepmom's dress and skipped home humming her favorite tune. Her workload seemed to get lighter.

 "The blanks are filled in as Madison and Allison! And look! Even Cinderella and Alex's names are filled in!" Herah exclaimed.

"Right! And I remember we just chose those two names, Madison and Allison." Sarah spoke.

They continued looking through the book and when they got to the part about the ball, they found the blanks again.

"That's strange..... The blanks appear again." Sarah was confused.

Herah was deep in thought then suddenly blurted out, "I think we have to complete the story! The blanks stop at the parts that we did not fill out yet!"

"That is so true! You're so smart Herah!" Sarah shouted loudly. They were so happy and high-fived each other.

"Maybe we'll get out after we complete the whole story!" The two girls said at once and smiled.

But behind the two, large white doors of the living room stood Jeffery. And HE wasn't happy at all.
