Hello children! It’s common for us to be the victim of different diseases like fever and headache. But what if you get a terrible disease named “horror disease”? Today, I’m going to tell you a strange story that you haven’t ever heard in your life. It’s a story of a princess who was ill with an unknown disease. Are you curious about what kind of horror disease she had? Was that really a disease or only her inner fear? Oh! It can also be like that she was not a human having a body similar to humans.
Let’s see what the case was.
On the cold 25th of December, when everybody was enjoying Christmas, a beautiful baby girl with highly attractive blue eyes was born in the king’s palace. Due to her eyes, he was named bluish. The whole kingdom was too happy to welcome their newborn princess because she was the only heiress of the king, and that was why she was the future princess of the entire state.
Tears replaced smiles when a mystery happened. Just after princess Bluish was born, she started crying and didn’t stop for two days. King and queen became too upset about that. King called his family physician to his palace and explained to him the whole situation. That physician was so talented and experienced that he had successfully treated many children in her life. He confidently held princess Bluish to examine her. But he couldn’t even identify the cause. After a lot of observation, he went to the king.
Physician: My dear King, I love and care about our new princess. Unfortunately, instead of putting in my whole effort, I couldn’t identify the cause—just one thing I can say.
King: What’s that?
Physician: She was staring at the people with horrible eyes. I think she’s dangerous for this state. I hadn’t observed that kind of behavior with any children in my life.
King became angry to hear that.
King: How dare you say this! When I didn’t observe that kind of behavior with my daughter, then how can you? I think you have become the partner of my neighboring country’s king.
Physician: I’m so sorry for my words. But I only said what I saw. I’m highly experienced in determining children’s psychology due to my profession. That’s why I can observe.
King: You can spread this kind of news in the country. Guards! Throw him in our strict jail.
The physician was sent to jail. But the king’s fear wasn’t eliminated. Princess bluish cried and feared all time. Days passed, and the news spread throughout the whole country. People started making assumptions.
One person: I’m sure that there’s a shadow of a ghost on the princess.
Another person: Oh! Why do you feel like that? Think decently. She may be suffering from any kind of disease that doesn’t appear.
The other two people were talking.
One person: I think she’s not the king’s own daughter. That’s why she can’t adjust with the queen. How can any baby keep on crying on her mother’s lap?
Another person: Please don’t spread this kind of news. I’m sure she’s not a human baby. She’s from a family of witches. I felt this when I went to see her saying that I’m a physician to treat her. I was in suspense about seeing the princess about which the whole state was talking.
Doesn’t matter what the condition is; time keeps on passing. Princess bluish became five years old. She had become able to recognize the world. The wonderful thing about her was that she showed her unusual behavior only in the daytime; at night, she became normal. One night, an incident happened in the palace. Their cook who was working in the kitchen was burnt in a fire due to gas leakage. He didn’t die, but he burnt totally, even his face. He was wearing a white dress at that time, and some blood was flowing from his face. Princess bluish began crying loudly just after seeing him and was in the condition she adopted in the daytime.
Princess bluish: Ah! It’s nighttime; then why do things appear the same as I observe in the daytime?
King: I can’t understand, dear.
Princess bluish: Daddy, in the daytime, I saw many ghosts like the one I just saw.
King: Dear, that wasn’t a ghost. That was your cook, uncle.
Princess bluish: But I saw him like a ghost. I see this kind of ghost daily. The ghost has a blue dress with a white crown (Her dad appeared as a ghost), and there’s also a female ghost with a long height (Her mom appeared as a ghost to her).
King was shocked to hear that. His family physician’s words roared in his eyes:
“She was staring at the people with horrible eyes.”
She was staring at the people ———————————————
She was ———————————————————- (Echo effect)
He instantly released the physician from jail.
King to Physician: Please forgive me. You were saying exactly the same thing was happening. I appeared like a ghost to my daughter during the daytime.
Physician: Your attitude was really cruel towards me. But the little princess is innocent. I’ll help her.
My daughter worked in a lab at the time when you punished me. I’m sure with the help of chemicals, I’ll identify the cause and solution.
The physician took a blood sample from Princess Bluish and went to his lab. After the ten-day experiment, he came back to the king.
King: Are you successful in identifying the cause?
Physician: Luckily, after a back-breaking effort, my daughter and I identified the cause.
King: Nice. What’s that?
King’s heartbeat became fast because he was going to hear the biggest news of his life.
Physician: The gene of a witch mutated princess’ eye gene. That’s why she got erratic albinism.
King became disappointed to hear the terrible news about her only daughter.
King: So, my daughter will have to spend her whole life with this disease.
Physician: No, king! Please don’t be disappointed. I came here with the solution.
King’s unpleasant face was compelled to smile.
King: Really! Please tell me.
Physician put his hand in his pocket and got glasses.
Physician: Please accept this gift from me. Using my optical technology, I invented these glasses. By wearing this, everything will appear well to the princess.
And really, when the princess wore glasses, everything became okay to her. So, she began spending her life comfortably with those glasses. Days passed, and she grew into a twenty years old beautiful girl. Up to that time, she had forgotten about her disease. Moreover, the king never told her about that, so she would not feel fear. She thought she was wearing glasses because of her low eyesight. Nobody entered her room when she was without glasses.
But the natural blessing is always great. How much we can rely on man-made things! One day, the princess’s glasses were lost. King was waiting to see her face, but when she didn’t come until her half-day passed, he went to her room from where a crying sound was emerging. When he entered her room, the princess bluish started crying.
Princess bluish: Please save me, Dad! Where am I? I’m in any kind of horror house.
But when the king came close to pat her, she began crying louder.
Princess: Please don’t come close to me.
King: You were calling me?
Princess: I’m not calling you; calling my dad.
King: Don’t worry, I’m with you.
Princess: This is, in fact, a fear. Please go away.
King felt pain. But then he thought:
“I think I should tell her the reality. She has grown enough to understand the situation.”
At night, when the princess became normal, the king told her the reality. Princess was a strong-hearted person. After knowing her disease, instead of starting crying, she activated her willpower so that she would recover. Doesn’t matter what the intensity of willpower is; it’s human nature to feel fear. She controlled her mind and fixed the words repeatedly in her brain and heart that everything around her was an illusion, not reality.
She tried very well to find her glasses in a horror world but couldn’t. She went to their family physician but got the bad news that he had died. She wasn’t able to get new glasses. That was the moment when any person could lose all her hopes. But she didn’t give up. Her inner soul told her that she had the power to do something great. She went to the physician’s daughter to learn about optics. She felt like she was a student of a horrible witch. She got lectures in horrible voices that hurt her ears. But she kept on working. In a few months, she learned many things about the relevant subject. After that, she began experiments in her room. One day, she prepared a proper method for her treatment. She told the whole method to the physician’s daughter. Amazingly, the method worked. Physicians removed her abnormal gene with her method.
She recovered to enjoy her life and became the princess of the whole state.
From the princess’s life, we learn how much we can change our life using our willpower and mind. Work well to get something instead of blaming your fortune.
