Cinderella is now 95 years old.
.
After a fulfilling life with the now dead prince, she happily
sits upon her rocking chair, Watching the world go by from her front porch, with a cat named Bob for companionship.
.
One sunny afternoon out of nowhere, appeared the fairy godmother.
.
Cinderella said, 'Fairy Godmother, what are you doing here after all These years'?
.
The fairy godmother replied, 'Cinderella, you have lived an exemplary Life since I last saw you. Is there anything for which your heart still yearns?'
.
Cinderella was taken aback, overjoyed, and after some thoughtful consideration, she uttered her first wish:
.
'The prince was wonderful, but not much of an investor.
I'm living hand to mouth on my disability schedules, and
I wish I were wealthy beyond comprehension.’
.
Instantly her rocking chair turned into solid gold.
Cinderella said, 'Ooh, thank you, Fairy Godmother'
.
The fairy godmother replied, 'It is the least that I can do.
What do you want for your second wish?'
.
Cinderella looked down at her frail body,
And said, 'I wish I were young and full of the beauty and youth I once had.'
.
At once, her wish became reality, and her beautiful
young visage returned. Cinderella felt stirrings inside her
hat had been dormant for years.
.
And then the fairy godmother spoke once more:
'You have one more wish; what shall it be?'
.
Cinderella looks over to the frightened cat in the corner
and says, 'I wish for you to transform Bob, my old cat, into
a kind and handsome young man.' Magically, Bob suddenly
underwent so fundamental a change in his biological make-up that, when he stood before her, he was a man so beautiful the likes of him neither she nor the world had ever seen.
.
The fairy godmother said, 'Congratulations, Cinderella, enjoy
your new life.' With a blazing shock of bright blue electricity, the fairy godmother was gone as suddenly as she appeared.
.
For a few eerie moments, Bob and Cinderella looked into
each other's eyes. Cinderella sat, breathless, gazing at the
most beautiful, stunningly perfect man she had ever seen.
.
Then Bob walked over to Cinderella, who sat transfixed in
her rocking chair, & held her close in his young muscular arms.
.
He leaned in close, blowing her golden hair with his warm
breath as he whispered.
.
