Rapunzel’s eyes fluttered open. She immediately squinted in the sunlight and raised a hand to shield her eyes from the sunlight flooding her room. Sitting up, she stretched her arms out wide and yawned. Her chickadee Vyvian greeted her as she stood, pushing back the gauzy purple curtains around her bed. She quickly washed and threw on a simple purple dress, then began doing her chores. While she worked she sang along with Vyvian’s cheerful song, and she continued to sing as she finished her chores, had a quick stretch, cooked herself breakfast, painted yet another picture of the view from her window, and practiced her harp. After that there was still a list of things she could do before the day was over, like bake cookies or a cake, make candles and pottery, sketch, sew a new dress, and of course she had to brush out all of her incredibly long hair.
There was of course, only so many things to do in a day, so she had to change up the order in which she did them or she would surely go crazy. She sighed and sat down in front of the window, looking out over the top of the forest. Rapunzel often wondered what it was like out there beyond the clearing, but knew that she would never find out. She rested her elbows on the ledge, and her face in her hand. Looking down she could see the grassy clearing, strewn with wildflowers. Grass. She didn’t know what grass felt like. Surely she had felt grass before? She looked over at Vyvian. “Oh Vyv, will we ever get out of here?” The chickadee tilted her head and chirped in response. Rapunzel sighed again and turned back to stare into the forest, resting her head in her hand again, and hoping desperately for something new to happen.
