Early in the morning,Romeo sighed in frustration and rubbed his temples, trying to think of another solution. He had been trying to break through the magical barrier blocking the hidden door for hours, but nothing seemed to work. He had already tried every potion in his arsenal, but the barrier remained stubbornly in place.

As he stood there, contemplating his next move, a ghostly voice suddenly spoke from the other side of the door. "Ha! You really think you can break through that barrier, boy?" the voice taunted.

Romeo gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He knew he shouldn't let the ghost get to him, but it was hard not to feel frustrated and powerless in the face of such a challenge.

He pulled out his enchanted glass, opened the third wish group chat And gave his guild a update.

"So we're not dealing with a spirit, we're dealing with a ghost, this makes things…. Challenging" Romeo texted.

Ignoring the ghost's taunts, he turned and made his way back to Evelyn's dining room.

All they had to do was make sure this ghost didn't cause too much trouble before Friday. Romeo did wonder what made this particular magic barrier so strong, he felt a sting of curiosity.

Sonny sat in the cozy living room with Evelyn, sipping on a cup of tea. He had been tasked with keeping her company while Romeo worked on breaking through the magical barrier on the hidden door. Sonny was happy to oblige; he enjoyed spending time with the elderly woman. She was kind and wise, and always had a good story to tell.

As they chatted, Evelyn suddenly looked at Sonny and smiled warmly. "You know, dear, you're a very handsome young man," she said.

Sonny felt his cheeks flush and he grinned. "Thank you, Evelyn. That's very kind of you to say."

Evelyn chuckled. "Oh, don't be modest, Sonny. You're a catch, and any young woman or man would be lucky to have you."

Sonny laughed nervously, feeling a bit awkward at the compliment. "Well, I haven't had much luck in the dating department lately," he admitted.

Evelyn cocked her head. "Oh? That's a shame. You seem like such a charming young man."

Sonny shrugged. "I suppose I just haven't found the right person yet."

Evelyn nodded sympathetically. "I understand. It can be difficult to find someone who truly understands you."

Suddenly, Sonny's curiosity was piqued. "Evelyn, if you don't mind me asking, what was your late daughter Ruby Walker like?" he asked.

Evelyn's eyes lit up at the mention of her daughter. "Oh, Ruby was a wonderful young woman," she said wistfully. "She was so gifted and passionate about everything she did. She had a real talent for music and was an accomplished pianist."

Sonny nodded, impressed. "That's amazing. Was she also always interested in magic?"

Evelyn smiled. "Yes, she was. She had a real talent for it, just like her father. She could cast spells with such precision and grace. It was a joy to watch her work."

Sonny leaned forward, eager to hear more. "And what about her personality? What was she like as a person?"

Evelyn's face softened as she remembered her daughter. "Ruby was intelligent and curious, with a real zest for life. She had a heart of gold and always put others before herself. She was a true gem, That's why we named her Ruby" she said, her voice filled with emotion.

Sonny smiled sympathetically. "She sounds like an amazing person. I'm sure you miss her terribly."

Evelyn nodded, a tear rolling down her cheek. "Every day," she whispered.
