Felt that? So what if one day, when fairy tales and happiness are too absurd for you, someone offered you-- Not a fairy god mother, not a witch, not genie, not a mist... but just someone who can make you happy, offering to make you feel it again. But of course nothing lasts forever. Only fifty five real happiness, real wishes. Once you feel happy for fifty five times, the ones who came to make you happy will be disappear like they never happened. You have to continue as if they never existed. Would you take it or would you leave the offer and find your own happiness?

Abigail says, tauntingly. “Yes,” I roll my eyes, “because it’s my dream to work at a camp for all things supernatural. You really got me there, Abigail.” Susan snickers and Kathleen hides her grin. Abigail just splutters, “Y-You just wish you could be like her.” “Can you just leave already Abigail?” I sneer at her. “And take your one-person fan club with you.” Outraged, Abigail storms off just as Beth exits the stall, looking pale but less shaken.

I'm assuming he doesn't know how to read yet because he was looking over the manu looking confused and his parents just chuckled at his confused expressions. "So Pepsi?" "Yes!" the little boy exclaimed. "Okay, and a glass of Pepsi" he said, turning his attention to me. I nodded, writing everything down. "I'll bring them right up to you." I loved coming to work, knowing I get to see people like that. As I was walking to the kitchen, I heard the TV. "Nicholas Ashford spotted with a woman coming out of a club yesterday. Could she be his secret lover?" the guy on the TV spoke. He was moving on fast.

“Alright my princess, I know this is a lot to take in but the little I want to say is that kindly consider this and help Mr. Williams's wish to come true.” “Dad but ….” “But what Anna? I think the best we can do is to help his wish to be fulfilled. Anna, you know very well how this man has been of great help to our family. He helped with your studies in college and also assisted us when your mom was in dying need of chemotherapy. Anna, I know this is very difficult to come to terms with but I am pleading with you as a father to do this for Mr.Williams to make his soul happy wherever he is. I know you do not know Damien Donovan but Anna he is not as terrible as the news blogs make it seem.”

“I wish for our family to be happy. For Mom to stay healthy, for Dad to stay safe. I wish for Matthew and me to keep loving each other, and for us to achieve our dreams!” God knows how sincerely I made that wish. Everything felt like a dream. If I could go back in time two years, I never would’ve imagined that one day I’d live in a mansion like a castle, wear a beautiful gown, go on dates with the boy I love, and come home to celebrate a warm birthday. God, forgive my greed. I wish that every day could be as beautiful as today. So when Mom said there was another surprise, I thought my wish was already coming true.

Harvey asked incredulously. After that, he sneered and added, "Do you think you can manipulate me into giving in by changing your approach, Samantha? I've repeatedly made it clear that there's nothing going on between Tiana and me! "It's just that she has a list of 100 wishes that I'm obligated to fulfill for her. And the engagement ceremony is her last wish! After this, I won't have anything to do with her." I sneered and asked, "Is that so? If that's the case, where are you right now?"

I whispered, barely able to breathe. He let out a deep breath and finally released me. He looked at me strangely, though the anger still lingered in his eyes. "You know," I began softly, trying to make him understand that there was no going back, "I only ever truly loved my grandpa. Everyone else that’s been close to me… they’ve always left, somehow. All I ever wanted was to make him happy. I just want to fulfill his last wish, so please, Roderick, don’t quit now. And besides, you have your own selfish reasons for marrying me too."

It was finally over. The grudge I held from my past life and the resentment I felt from my second life had finally all gone up in flames in the explosion. Nothing was left. I could finally let go of the past and look forward to my new life ahead of me. I turned back and kissed Xander on the lips. "Thank you, Xander." I wanted to thank him for still choosing me and pulling me out of hell when I was in my darkest days. He was the one who lit up my life.

Clutching the brand new Gucci purse in my hands, I leave to find my way to the nearest pawn shop. When a person leaves behind almost everything they own, you take the most valuable things both sentimental and financial, the picture of you and your best friend from middle school, the diamond earrings your father gave you for your thirteenth birthday. Because nothing says you're entering womanhood like a pair of sparkly rocks to put in your ears.

My fingers trembled as I clutched my gown, tears spilling freely. “I’m trying,” I sobbed.“Not hard enough,” he said coldly. “I met Arias last month and she’s already two weeks pregnant. Destiny, right?” The room spun. I collapsed. “How could you?” I cried. “I waited five years. I tried.” “So what about us?” “I’m marrying Arias.” I swallowed hard. “I want a divorce.” “You want what?” “A divorce.” “And how will you survive?” he mocked. “An orphan with nothing? Or did that thug give you confidence?”
