The Wish

As the speech came to an end, Ollie got up from his chair, rat in hand, and continued his original plan to gather books for his new home. After picking up all the books he could carry, he made his way back to the apartment building. By the, the sun was setting and the air had turned crisp. Ollie’s usual good mood was at an all time high as he walked in the front door of his new apartment with Rufus by his side. He was immediately greeted by a mattress leaning against his wall with a note attached to it.
“Picked this up for you today Ollie. Hope you like it! -George”

Ollie couldn’t contain his excitement; he threw the mattress on the floor.

“Watch out Rufus! Cannonnnballlll!” he yelled, jumping straight to the middle of his new bed.

All the sudden, his unlit room turned a bright white. He looked out his window and was almost blinded by a light in the sky.

“What the hell?”

Ollie ran out of the door and up to the roof, finding George and a whole group of other people he thought he recognized. He ran up to George to thank him for his gift and find out what the light in the sky was that everyone was freaking out about.

“Ollie! I just wished for a Lambo and look! It’s right there! Make a wish Ollie! Maybe it’ll come true like mine! George replied ecstatically.

Ollie was astounded. He could wish for anything and it would come true. He thought harder than he ever had, and finally realized what he wanted.

“I wish for a flat screen TV and a bunch of cool stuff for my new room!”
