She's my Genie (short story)

Chapter 1 *~*~*~*

#Rafael’s POV (Point-Of-View)

 “hey Rafael, wanna go out with us?” said Finn

“perhaps another time guys I got a lot of things to do.” I replied

“you’ve always been busy with that business you have bro. what is it anyway. You haven’t told us anything about it.” Kane asked. “It’s none of your concern”. And I walked out.

My name is Rafael Salvador. Son of the president of our school and known as the Prince Charming of the Campus. Actually, I’m not that ‘Charming’ as it looks and I really hate girls chasing me for hours. Yeah, I may be handsome but I don’t have those charming personalities that they say. Besides my good look I am also an honor student of Willford Academy. I don’t have a mom anymore she passed 6 years ago and now I’m in college. Since our class has ended, I’m going home.

10 minutes later, I’ve finally arrived at our house. “hi Rafael, how was school?” grandma said. By the way, my grandma is staying with us. “I’m ok grandma” and I kissed her cheeks. I quickly ran up stairs and stayed in my room. I wasn’t quite hungry for dinner so I didn’t go down stairs. Dad isn’t home yet; I bet he’s still at work in the office. Besides being a president of Willford Academy, he’s also the President of a popular company. Ok, better not to talk about it.

Right now, I’m reading a book about stars. These myths about stars are very interesting. So I went outside and went on the roof. There’s a full moon and trillions of stars. The book says “once you see a shooting star, make a wish coming from your heart and it your wish will come true.” It’s a bit stupid. Usually I don’t believe this kind of things but right now, I think I really need to make 1 wish.  But I still don’t know if it grants immediately, because’ in the book it says ‘if you wait for your dreams to come true on their own, it will be a long wait.’ I can wait for a long time but not forever. There’s a reminder though, I guess I shouldn’t read it; it’s not a big deal. Ok here it goes. Wait! How do I know if a shooting star comes or not?! Could I wish on a big star instead? The book says nothing about it… maybe I should.

I looked for a big bright star. There it is! I closed my eyes and began to wish “I wish to be happy again” And once I opened my eyes, I suddenly felt the cold breezy air. Did it work?
