Princess Latisha

Once upon a time, in a beautiful castle in the town, there lived a wise King. He has only one daughter, named Princess Latisha. She was the most beautiful girl in the town.  However, different from his father, she was an immoral and childish girl.

One day, the King was getting sick. He could not awake from his bed. He also could not eat. Every time he ate some foods, he would throw up the foods. A doctor has examined his body, and he could not cure the King. The doctor also said that the only way to cure the King was dragon fruit. Then, he asked his beautiful daughter, Princess Latisha, to put dragon fruit in the forest. The forest not far enough, but it took all day long to go there.  However, Princess Latisha never noticed the King. She even went to the party in the other town while her daddy was sick.

After she came back from the party, she was shocked. The King’s condition was getting worse. He even could not talk anymore. “Oh, daddy… What happened with your condition now? Why are you getting worse? Huhu…” asked Princess Latisha sadly. But the King could not say anything. He only could shake and nod his head as a sign.

The next morning, Princess Latisha woke up and realized that she did not want to lose her father. She loved her father so much. She did not want to live in the castle alone. Then, she asked for apologize to her father. She also asked for permission to go to the forest and promise to bring dragon fruit for the King. The King just nodded his head as a sign he gave the permission.

The next day, when Princess Latisha came back home, the King was unconscious. She shocked and cried loudly, “Daddy! Please wake up, daddy! I have come back and I have brought dragon fruit for you…” Then, she was placing the dragon fruit into her daddy’s mouth. After eat that fruit, the King was took a rest. Moreover, the King’s condition was getting better in the following day. Princess Latisha was very happy and she promised that she would be a better daughter for the King.
