THE QUEEN AND THE JOKER
Short Story written by: Ana Muñoz Garcia.
Once upon a time, there was a talent show in the castle, the queen loved it. Everything was classic, classic music, classic dances and more other things. But suddenly in the show, a joker appeared; he made everybody laugh except the queen.
She was very angry, because wanted every show to be classic, and the joker was telling jokes, making funny dances…Suddenly, he felt down the floor catching the curtains and breaking everything around the stage.
Everybody but the queen left running, she was so, so angry, that locked the joker up in a big cage. Suddenly, the princess, the queen´s daughter, appeared; she was really pretty, had long blond hair and went to visit the joker, when she saw him, said:
– “I really liked what you did on the stage, I had not laughed like that for many years”. – said the princess.
The joker smiled happy of knowing that someone had enjoyed his performance; then said.
– “Thank you, thank you, but that is the reason of why I got locked up inside this cage”.
– “I can help you” – said the princess.
– “How?How?” – asked the joker.
– “Listen, I will free you from the cage, we will repair the stage and then, you will teach my mother that to laugh is sometimes needed; but do not fall down!!! otherwise everything will be ruined, do you understand?”.
– “Yes, I do, I will do it well, Hope she likes it, and…what happens if she does not like?”
– “She will love it, only has to watch the end”.
-“Ok, so let´s go to repair the stage!”
So, they began to repair the stage, and when they finally finished, everybody in kingdom assisted to the new performance again. The queen yelled:
– “What is this?!!!!!”
