Yuan gave me another feather without saying anything, and waited for my words.
My eyebrows went up in joy when I finally thought about my third and last wish.
I looked up in Yuan's eyes, feeling the excitement grow in me, "My last wish is that...I want the perfect boyfriend that everyone would be jealous of!"
Yuan stared back at me, tilting his head slightly.
He hissed slowly and nodded, "Weird wish, but okay...done." The feather vanished, fading into thin air.
Ruby was glad that all her three wishes would be granted by Guardian Angel Yuan, but little did she know that the boyfriend, for whom she was so happy to get, would be the biggest trouble she could ever wish for.
"Deion, I want you to die. I don't want you to be in my life anymore!" I shouted at him, my perfect boyfriend, while he quietly chuckled.
"Ruby, baby, you cannot kill me. You cannot kill someone who is born perfect."
He strode towards me, like a tiger approaching its prey, and stood at a negligible distance from my body.
He whispered in my ear, "No matter how hard you try, I will find a loophole in each and every plan of yours..."

*****
On the last day of their class's college trip to Paris, Mira and Jake get tangled up in a debacle that causes them to miss their flight home to New York. Which means they're stuck in Paris until the next available flight that's 24 hours away! Mira is witty and a lover of art history and good cheese. Jake, on the other hand, is your All-American frat boy with a killer smile. Translation: they can't stand each other.
As they visit places they could never have imagined, Mira and Jake go from mortal enemies to star-crossed lovers with sizzling chemistry. But can their spark last without Paris' cheese and charm to keep it going?
