Unhappily Ever After

Exhausted, lonely, jealous, remorseful. These emotions now defined the Fairy Godmother. It felt like only yesterday she was a young woman, “a terrible flirt” they called her as she toyed with the men, enjoying the attention. How was she to know one of these men was a god? He sent her countless gifts and proposals and she accepted the gift and rejected the man. Fed up, the god punished her, reducing her to this curse of helping others find their love and happiness but never her own. With each woman she helped she grew more and more jealous, the only small token to ease her slightly was recalling the wish at midnight, but it never would fill the empty void. After watching woman after woman find her true love she couldn’t help but ask, “When do I get my happily ever after?” Sadly, she already knew the answer.
