Chloe told Nyssa as they sat on the front steps the next morning. “I just wrote down the first thing that popped into my head. I thought it was pretty safe.” “And? Wait, don’t tell me,” said Nyssa. “Let me use my psychic powers. Abigail went shopping and came back with a few pints of Häagen-Dazs.” “Hold your skepticism for a minute. It wasn’t like that at all.” Chloe told her friend the whole story, from writing down her wish to Mr. Shambhu’s multiple breakdowns in front of the house. “It’s a coincidence, Chloe,” Nyssa insisted. “Weird, but still a coincidence.” “How can you say that?” Chloe shook her head in frustration. “I make a wish, and Mr. Shambhu’s truck breaks down, his generator dies and his cell phone battery goes dead, all in the space of less than half an hour, right in front of this house. What are the odds?” Nyssa shrugged. “It’s a long shot, but it isn’t impossible. What is impossible is a box that grants wishes. Please tell me you don’t believe in fairy tales.”
