Snow White

Chapter 10
The fairy tales never do her justice. She has long, thin hair as pale as that crisp snow just before dawn, which blends perfectly into her equally white, symmetrical face, as if someone forget to colour her in. I saw her as a ghost, who is only half-way into this world.

Most people imagine Snow White with beautiful red lips and stunning dark hair, all contrasting her fair complexion. They couldn’t be more far off from the truth. Her hair has never been as black as a raven, unless it was covered in a thick layer of mud from the forest. Her lips had never been as red as a rose, unless they were covered in the blood of innocence.

Snow White was never the fairest, but the most powerful. Legend claimed that she could only be vanquished if someone could gouge out her pure heart. Many theories and conspiracies rose about vampires and witches, while the more naive fantasied about princesses and fairies, though none were accurate with their notions.

Whatever the matter was with the peculiar destruction that followed her everywhere, it soon became quite clear she wasn’t dying anytime soon. Obviously, this is how I came about her. I don’t know if she used to speak, but to me she never uttered a word. However, I sensed a sort of lost aura swallowing her, engulfing her, so I made it my next mission to discover who she really was.

The answer was surprisingly simple. She was merely a girl, an impossible girl, who should have died long ago yet never quite made it over the clouds. Maybe she lacked the strength to die properly, maybe someone decided they didn’t want her in either realm… or maybe, just maybe, the universe is so big and complicated that sometimes, rarely, but sometimes, even the universe can make the most dangerous of mistakes that haunt lives forever.
