The Mermaid Long time ago there was a princess who suffered from the witch's magic. Actually, the princess was very beautiful and kind person. Anybody loved her except her sister who •was so jealous of her. If the princess still had her beauty, so every prince would prefer to marry her rather than her sister. One day, the sister ordered a witch to change the princess beauty into an ugly face. The witch gave a bottle of poison to her to be added into the princess food. That poison would change princess' appearance into an ugly one. In the evening when the dinner started, the sister added the poison into the food for the princess. Nobody knew about that. The princess ate her food without noticing that there was a danger inside her food. After eating, at night, the princess' skin was full of blister. The princess felt hurt and she cried to ask for help. No one could help her even the physicians in that kingdom. The princess looked so scary like a monster. She was so sad and ashamed because everybody was afraid of her. Then she ran away and away from the kingdom. She walked alone through the deep forest day and night. She was like a monster so that no animal or predator dared to get close to her. That made her sadder and sadder. She walked until she reached a beach and then she felt so tired because she never had a rest from walking. At that beach she began to sleep. She did not realize that she had been sleeping for three months and she woke up because there was a very handsome man came and woke her up. "Wake up dear poor princess," the man said. "Oh, who are you? Why are you not afraid of me?" the princess asked. ''I am the king of the sea. You have been sleeping here for three months in suffer. So, it is the time for me to help you. I will give back your beauty but after that you will never get your previous life," the man said. "Oh, my lord, you are so kind. I have lost my previous life so I like to have the new life. What should I do, my lord?" the princess asked. "Follow me to come closer to the sea." The princess followed that man walk into the sea. After touching the sea, the princess' beauty was back to her. She was also amazed that half of her body was a fish body. "Now you cannot stay at the land, dear princess. You will forever live in the sea like the fish. But don't be sad. I will marry you and you will be the queen in my kingdom," the man said. From then on, the princess never went back to the land. The king of the sea married her and she became the queen of the sea.
