From second grade onward, Zak Ahmed blows out the same candle every day.
When he finds himself living with strangers, he seems unlikely to ever wish on another candle again.
He does not realize how hopeless and lonely he is until he meets Darryl, a neighborhood boy who captures his heart.
In a matter of seconds, Zak finds himself back where he started: unsure of the things he thought he wanted, because they may be not all that he needs.
