SnowLife lesson: when you're embarrassed, act like you're better than them.
Of course, that's probably the worst life lesson, but Snow White followed it every single day.
"What are you two looking at? Go find the cleaner and get another mirror you worthless scoundrels!" Snow screamed.
That's just what Coleen and Tilton did.
Soon enough, Snow White was put into a new dress, the room was spotless and the princess was picking a new mirror.
"No, I insist I come with you to find a mirror. I'd like to see it for myself, "
"Ugh. Fine you royal pain," Leon, one of her best friends said.
Usually, if someone said that to Snow White, they would be in a lot to trouble. But Leon was her best friend. He was around to watch his father at work, fulfilling a dream to become a knight. They were both young when he came. They've been inseparable ever since.
Once they got to the Commoner's Village to buy a new mirror, Snow and Leon were greeted by villagers.
"Good afternoon your highness,"
"You look lovely, princess,"
"Charming as always your majesty,"
Snow White loved the attention. She would give anything to be always noticed like this.
"So, she likes the attention," Leon said as they arrived at Louisa's Antiques and Furniture.
"No, I just-". Snow started
"Snow! Leon! I'm so glad to see you!" Louisa exclaimed as they walked through the front door.
"Hello Lou," Snow said cheerfully.
Louisa was a part of the royal family. A cousin from the king's side.
"What are you looking for sweetie?" She asked.
"We're looking for a mirror," Leon answered.
"Well, the mirrors are over there, I'm sure you can show yourselves around since y'all are familiar with the place. Just holler when you need me," she said in her natural southern accent.
Leon and Snow walked down the aisle where the mirrors were placed.
"What about this one?" Leon asked as he pointed to a beautiful ivory one.
"Too shiny," Snow said as she walked further down the aisle
She was about to go toward a wooden antique mirror when something caught her eye. A beautiful blue sparkle at the corner of her eye led her to the west side of the store. There, she saw a beautiful rose gold mirror. But it wasn't the frame itself that made her like the mirror, how she looked in the mirror is what surprised her. She was very pale, with liquid gold eyes and rosy red lips. Her perfectly curled brown hair falling loose on her shoulders.
"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?"
You are, Snow White
Snow jumped at the sound. Was she going mad?
You're not going mad, dear Snow. No princess as divine as you would turn mad
"You think I'm the divine?" Snow asked excitedly.
There was once a girl that came close to that title, but she let me go and she was no longer the fairest. You are Snow White, indeed fairer than her.
"Leon!" Snow called. "I think I've found the perfect mirror,"
