Cinderella: A Twisted Tale Series Novel

It was a musty day and I was, as usual, and I was mopping the floors, as usual. I never was treated the way I should have been.  My step-sisters were bitches, and my step-mother? Don't even get me started with her. 

I sat on the cold floor of the foyer and scrubbed the floor with a sponge and a bucket of soapy water. "Why does my life suck so much? Why do I have to scrub the floors when I have a mop? Oh right because my step-mother is a bitch." I sang as I roughly scrubbed the floor.

"Why did my dad have to die and leave me with these bitches? I don't know, but I do know that I don't feel like scrubbing these floors." I added on. by the time  I had finished scrubbing I had bruises on my knees from kneeling on the floor.

"Well what a good job you've done." My step-mother said as she walked into the foyer. "Oh. Actually you missed a spot over there." She said as she pointed towards the reflection of the window. 

I sighed. "That's the reflection of the window step-mother."

"Oh. Then fine job. Tomorrow, I want you to scrub it with a toothbrush to make sure it's extra clean." She said walking by and up the stairs. 

I threw my sponge and collapsed on my back. "2 hours step-mother, 2 hours of scrubbing the floor with my bare hands and a sponge. Now a toothbrush? God, you......Ugh!" I sat up and got my sponge and bucket and took them into the mud room.

I cleaned the off and placed them to dry. "Well, well, well. Look who finally finished cleaning the floors." My step-sister, Belinda, said coming up behind me. "It's about time." My other step-sister, Melinda, said following Belinda. 

"Go away." I said trying to keep myself from strangling them. 

"You don't tell us what to do." Melinda said. She turned me around and pushed down. 

"You little bitch." Belinda said as she walked away with Melinda following behind her.

I only had a old brown dress and an apron made of rags to wear. I didn't even have one pair of shoes. When they made me go and get them things, they made me go barefoot. I'm surprised I hadn't gotten a foot infection by then.
