One day, the merchant heard that one of his ships had returned with goods, so he went to the city, hoping to regain his wealth. Before he left, he asked his children what gifts they wanted. The older daughters wanted dresses and jewels, but Beauty only asked for a single rose.

On his way back, the merchant got lost in a dark forest. He found a mysterious enchanted castle, where he was given food and shelter by unseen hands. As he was leaving, he saw a beautiful rose garden and plucked one for Beauty. Suddenly, the Beast, the master of the castle, appeared. Enraged, he accused the merchant of stealing and demanded his life.

The merchant begged for mercy. The Beast agreed to spare him only if one of his daughters came willingly to live in the castle. When the merchant returned home and told his children, Beauty bravely chose to go, saying, “I will go in my father’s place.”

At the castle, Beauty expected to be harmed, but the Beast treated her kindly. He gave her fine clothes, delicious meals, and companionship. Every evening, he asked her to marry him, and every evening she gently refused, saying she only saw him as a friend.

Over time, Beauty grew fond of the Beast’s gentle heart, even though his appearance frightened her. One day, she longed to visit her father, and the Beast allowed her to leave, warning that if she stayed away too long, he might die of grief.

Beauty returned home, but her jealous sisters tricked her into staying longer. When she finally hurried back, she found the Beast lying in the garden, weak and near death. Moved by love and pity, she cried, “I love you, Beast! Please don’t die!”

At that moment, the curse was broken. The Beast transformed into a handsome prince. He explained that a wicked fairy had cursed him, and only true love could break the spell. Beauty and the prince were married, and they lived happily ever after. ✨🌹

Now, Mr. Karim was known in the town as a man who rarely smiled. He had a big beard, wore old clothes, and often scolded people. Many children whispered, “He looks like a beast!”

When Mr. Karim saw his car was scratched, he was very angry. Beauty’s father felt sorry and admitted his mistake, but he didn’t have enough money to pay for the repair.

Seeing her father so worried, Beauty bravely said,

“Don’t worry, Father. I will help Mr. Karim after school until the debt is paid.”

So every day, Beauty went to Mr. Karim’s workshop to help clean, water the plants, and feed his cats. At first, she was afraid of him. He was always serious and rarely spoke.

But slowly, she noticed little things:

-Mr. Karim always gave food to stray cats.

-He repaired toys for children secretly and left them at their doors.

-He even helped an old lady carry her heavy groceries.

Beauty realized that even though he looked scary, inside he had a gentle heart.

One day, Beauty’s father fell sick. Mr. Karim, who had seemed so unfriendly before, came to visit. He brought food, medicine, and even fixed their broken fence.

Beauty smiled and said, “You’re not a beast at all, Mr. Karim. You’re kind.”

Mr. Karim’s face softened, and for the first time, he laughed. From then on, he became a good friend to Beauty and her father. 👧❤️😊
