Once upon a time, there lived three hopeful young ladies who believed in true love and happily ever after. These three ladies lived in different kingdoms and didn't know each other. They each had their own charted journey in life and it was far from what they ever imagined.


One day, all three ladies felt they've had enough of their regimented life and wanted a break. So, they went out on their own in search of a place to chill. 


Believe it or not, they each stumbled upon the same watering hole situated right smack in the middle of nowhere, and they all decided to go in to let loose. And that was how the three of them met. 


Not used to being in a place filled with sweaty, loud, drunk men, the three ladies found themselves drawn towards each other as they each noticed how out of place they all were. 


They ordered their poison and sat together at an available table, as far away from the smelly, loud mouth drunken men. They made small talk at first, trying to get a feel of each other. After they finished the first round of drinks, they ordered another round and another and another. Pretty soon, all three were so drunk that they began to swap life stories.


"You have no idea how nauseating it is to be looking after seven men day in and day out," Snow White groaned. "Imagine having to wash stinky, filthy clothes, underwear and socks every day for seven men! The house stinks of stale sweat no matter how much I clean."


"I don't have to deal with seven men but I have to deal with a beast," Belle said. "Do you know how annoying it is to keep finding hair all over the place? He keeps shedding his hair everywhere; on the carpet, the furniture, on his clothes, on my clothes, in my food, in my face. It's just too much!"


"I don't have to deal with seven men or a beast but I have to deal with a wicked stepmother from hell and two annoying brats of stepsisters who seem to think I am superwoman," sighed Cinderella. "No matter how much I do, it seems like my work is never over. Every night I can hardly feel my legs after I'm done with all the chores. I'm just ready to collapse but I have to climb all the way up to the attic and share a room with all the mice and creepy crawlies. It's horrible."


And so, they continued swapping their tales of woe while they kept the drinks coming. At the end of the evening, they made a pact to meet at that watering hole once a week. 


It was said that the three ended up being alcoholics and they lived drunkenly ever after. 


The end.

    Mam, In modern society mostly women are drunkards in Europe and America but in India very high profile women of aristocrat society drink and imbibing is their culture with debauched habits. This story imparts a little bit magic but not the landscape of fairy land however some dialogues may be written with three narratives to drink and forget.
