The True Story of the Hansel and Gretel from stepmother’s, Mary T’s, point of view

Everybody knows the story of the Hansel and Gretel but nobody knows the real story. Nobody has ever heard my side of the story. I’m stepmother, Mary T. stepmother. The real story is about my husband.

Way back in once upon a time, my husband was sick. Some time later, my husband died. One day, I punished my stepdaughter and stepson because they were very naughty. Finally, I caught them and pushed them out of my house.

Everybody thought that I was bad because I punished them. But I didn’t think so. It was because I hoped that they could be a good girl and good boy.

Everybody thought that I had no conscience because I caught them and pushed them out of my house. However, I just wanted to train them to be independent.

Everyone thought that I did not go to find them. That reason for this was that I was very busy. I didn’t have time to find them.

Finally, I found them! But, they disliked me. So I was very sad because no one loved me. How poor I was!
