Purple Skin - the proposal which got rejected

i'm so sad, this is my favourite storyline among all proposals. it got rejected not because of the storyline, but because it was too long, quoting mr. tan "we're doing 2 mins max, this is like 50 mins Disney animated movie kinda story!'" .

thanks to Ammar for dreaming of 'Purple Skin'. here goes the story...

An orphan girl (still hasn't got the name yet) lives above a shop house, a bar exactly, where she works. From her small, ramshackle room, she could see the happenings of the whole small town, and a castle a far, on top of a hill. Everyday she's awed by the beauty of the castle and wonders how it feels to live in it. One day the princess announces that she's coming to the small town for a visit, there's going to be a parade welcoming her. On d day of the parade, the orphan girl, squeezed her way just to lay her eyes on the said beautiful princess. And there she is, all pretty in a purple dress. That night, in the darkness of her candle-lit room, she pulls out her diary, and wrote

Purple Skin
That is seductive,
That is comforting,
I’m down drunk with lust

Next day she's cleaning the bar, the shop owner (wicked) could see the distance in her eyes. She asked the orphan girl 'Silly girl, are u in love?' orphan girl only smiled..

Orpan girl is sleeping in her room smiling in her sleep, dreaming, she is dancing with the princess. awakened, again she pulls put her diary and wrote

Purple Skin
Giving me sweet dreams,
Giving me night screams
I’m smiling with lust
Purple Skin
Dance with me now,
Make me happy somehow,
Be mine, all mine

One day orphan girl accidentally left her diary in the bar, and later found by the wicked shop owner. Being d busy body she is, d shop owner reads her entry and was shocked to see her entries about the princess. She sends for orphan girl, and yell at her "Are u in love with the princess?!!! By Lord, I must report this to the commissioner at once!!". Orphan girl tried to explain but it was too late. Shop owner stormed out of the bar, ordered orphan girl to be locked in her room, and went report the matter to commissioner. Orphan girl cry in dismay, in the darkness of her room.

Princess came to d shop and summoned for orphan girl and asked "Is it true, you're in love with me?" Orphan girl looked up, into princess' eyes and said

‘I am an orphan girl, have nothing nice to wear
Nothing tasty to eat
Nothing fun to play...
All I want
Is to have your kind of life
Your purple dress to wear
Your beautiful dance to share…’
-The End-
