Novel & Cerita The Greatest Wish

Hence, I returned to Harbor City and taught Grace a lesson. The sycamore tree in my yard, once vibrant, was now wilting. I called every gardener in the city, determined to save it. People thought I was crazy, spending so much on a tree, but I didn’t care. That tree reminded me of her, of everything I’d lost.

“SEVEN WISHES! Then hear me Gods above, these are my wishes…” “I wished to be reborn and given a second chance! I wished to become the most beautiful woman that ever existed! To have an incredible reputation in both wealth! And fame! To have a great and loving family and not like the shiity one I had! To find love and marry the most handsome man ever! Let me experience the wildest FANTASIES!!!”

I make it short, and he looks at me through narrowed eyes, confused, but I decide not to explain my crazy interaction with whoever that was, but do what I brought him here to do, and take the checkbook from my bag. “Tell me your name, please,” I request as I fill in the other fields, including the amount. “Why?” He asks suspiciously, making me smile. “Because I want to make your second biggest wish come true,” I answer as I look at him expectantly, and he opens his mouth, then closes it, not sure if he should talk, or if he can. “J-James Wilson.” He stutters in a shaky voice, probably realizing what I’m doing, and after I finish, I rip the check and give it to him.

"You’ve been gone for a long time, and there’s no way you could be here now." "But isn’t this what you want?" My mother pushed. "To have all of us here as a happy family? Isn’t that your greatest wish?" My greatest wish... Sure, it was my greatest wish, but it was only a wish. "Something like this could only happen in a different time and place." I sighed, feeling a pang of pain rush through me. "But that time isn’t now and it won’t ever be in this lifetime."

Replied Merek spitting on the ground at Kariya’s words. “Isn’t that what we’re doing right now?” asked Kariya looking at Merek. “Anyway I can give you that wish if you help me.” Said Merek. “With what?” asked Kariya narrowing his eyes. “The Grand Design.” Said Merek with a smile. “What’s that?” “It’s the plan to change the world.” Replied Merek. “How will you grant my wish?” asked Kariya looking skeptical. “With this.” Said Merek holding up her star necklace. “I can wish for anything I want except one thing, to kill my prime because it’s against the rules.”

~Ioana~ When I was young, my wishes never came true no matter how well or hard I'd pray to the moon goddess. But suddenly, who can tell me why my wishes became incredibly effective? I wanted to go back and slap myself when I screamed at Alessandro, "I wish you'd forget I exist, not just you, but the whole world would." He had hushed me, but I was undeterred. And now my wish, in the worst way possible, was answered.

The sensation filled the ship. Warm. Hopeful. Simple. One sentence. Just one. > May everyone find their way home. Silence. The blue light brightened. Then drifted away. Returning to the garden. Returning to the stars. The crew remained motionless. Because somehow— out of all the wonders we'd seen— that felt the most important. Not power. Not magic. A wish. A simple hope carried between worlds. Eventually Hope smiled. A real smile. The kind she showed only during rare moments.

Lena said as she grabbed onto his arm, shaking it lightly. “Uncle Aaron, don’t you remember? First snow wishes always come true.” Drunk and giddy, Lena had completely reverted to her eighteen-year-old self. “Then make one,” Aaron said, indulging her. Lena rocked his arm again. “Let’s wish together! Let’s wish… um…” What should she wish for? For a moment, she blanked. Then, suddenly, she blurted out, “I wish you won’t be able to marry Xandra.”

“I disappointed Grandma too. Do you know what her greatest wish was? She told me few days ago that her greatest wish was for us to come back together. She wanted nothing more than to see us get back together. I wished she could have seen that happen.” That was Grandma’s greatest wish? Gael moved closer to me. “What do you say, Alora? We can still make her happy. We can still fulfill her greatest wish. Let’s get married again.”

Taking a deep breath, she cleared her throat and then stated, “Only if it's alright with you... I know what you said at the reception, and I don't want this to feel like I am overstepping your words or anything like that... but, if you wouldn't mind, can Vex Co. have the fifty million dollars project. That’s my one wish.” Silence filled the room for a moment before Mr. Alfred nodded his head and said, “You can ask me for anything…” “I know,” Emma whispered, lowering her gaze. “You want to use your wish on Vex Co.?” “Yes.” When another silent stretch passed between them, Emma finally raised her head, her eyes meeting his as Mr. Alfred said, “Okay. I will get in touch with your grandfather th
