Later in the story, when the two sisters attempt to steal Cinderella’s love with the Prince by physically altering their feet to forcefully fit the shoe, the Grimms writes, “ ‘ Roo coo coo, roo coo coo, blood’s in the shoe: the shoe’s too tight, the real bride’s waiting another night’ (pg 184).

The father is probably commuting to work, and this is evident through the fact that he never sees the cruelty experienced by Cinderella.
