"I'm your personal genie. You have 3 wishes."

"My personal genie?"

"Wish for anything, and your wish is my command."

.........

-3 hours earlier somewhere in the Middle East-

"Amber please!" My ex boyfriend pleaded.

(pronounced- uhm-ber with the accent)

I continued my way through the outdoor market angrily stomping my feet. He grabbed my hand and swerved me around. I crossed my arms and narrowed my eyes at him.

"Go away Ali! You have done enough already!" I yelled and he rose his hands up in defense.

"Just please give me another chance Amber!" He pleaded. His hands were folded together and I noticed a droplet of rain drop down at his palm. I stared up at the sky and another droplet hit my cheek. I looked back at him.

"I've given you more chances than anyone has Ali and I'm not giving you anymore. Get out of my life." I spat and continued through the less crowded market now that the droplets had turned into drizzling. Ali continued to follow me though.

"Please Amber, I promise never again will I treat you like that I promise." He pleaded. I walked faster.

"Just...just go, I have a new set of tourists coming in." I muttered. Ali continued to follow me until I groaned and stopped making him run straight into me.

"I'm s-"

"Look! The tour bus has arrived! Gotta go!" And with that I took off through the ground with my speed. I was expecting to lose Ali immediately and he would leave me alone but I heard some running behind me. I turned around to glance back and he was a little behind judging by the crowd. Before I can look where I'm going, I collided with someone then fell on the ground.

"I'm so sorry are you hurt?" It was a deep voice with a foreign accent. I glanced up following the black skinny jeans, white shirt that peeked out from a blue, short sleeved, denim button up. It was a white boy, blonde boy who was holding a broken camera and he stared at me apologetically.

"No no I'm fine! It's my fault I'm sorry did I break your camera?" I stood up quickly and brushed myself off. He shrugged and looked down at his camera.

"It's alright, I have plenty." He smiled.

"So I'm guessing you're a tourist?"

"Yep."

"Well, then I'll be your tour guide. But first...how the hell did we get so far away from the market?" I realized we were far from the market now. The boy shrugged.

"Well, I was actually looking for the bathrooms and I got lost, then I found this." He pointed down to a small door that was in the ground. There was sand over but he brushed some away with his foot lightly.

"Looks like some sort of hideout or secret place..." I trailed off and walked forward brushing away the sand. My hand wrapped itself around the latch and I gave a hard pull. There was a loud creak then the wooden board flew open. I shut my eyes as a mix of dust and sand flew in my face. I quickly covered my face with my shirt. I peeked down and saw a passageway and one torch that was lit. Before I knew it I was slipping through and hopping down. Suddenly the remaining torches began to lit up with fire.

"Woah..." I whispered staring down the passage that led ahead of me. I had always thought the place I lived was boring and there was nothing go do but finally I had found something that no one hadn't noticed in a while. Well I hadn't found it. Then I remembered and looked up. "Are you coming?" I asked the boy as he stared at me with interest from above. Without a word I noticed his long legs slip through then he jumped down.
