The only thing that bothered her though was no matter how much she talked to Pauly, he wouldn't talk back. So, one night when Joey is gazing at the stars, with Pauly of course, she spots a shooting star. She does the expected of course - she wishes for Pauly to come to life. But Pauly isn't what he appears to be. Pauly has a secret that no one knows about.
A short story about how wishes come true.
