Hiya my name is Cinderella
but people here abouts call me
Cinder.
I am what you would call
a working girl.
I work days, evenings,
and nights
whatever I can
to get some money.
You see
I want to escape this
place...
I want to go to the big city
and find my prince.
You know the rich
dude who can give me
everything I ever want
out of life.
Yeah right! so you say.
Well he does exist
you see my fairy God mother
told me he does.
And well
she should know
you see she has
connections.
What connections you ask?
Well I'm not real sure
has something to do
with the owner of the motel
and his secretary
and oh his wife too I guess.
Anyway, she says he exists
so I need money
to get where he is.
damn,
these shoes are hurting my feet again.
yeah I know
but don't they make my feet look slender.
Drat it's midnight
gotta run
Red said she'd meet me
for coffee
at her grandmothers shop.
See ya.

I enjoyed this. She comes across very well, and really easy. The reference to meeting Red in the last lines was a great way to tie this to faerie tales in general.
Thank you for entering and good luck in the contest
