Challenge 190:
WISH

n. to have a desire for, especially something unattainable

What do your characters wish for?

Maybe it’s something grand and apparently impossible – immortal life, infinite wealth, world peace. Maybe it’s something simpler and more straightforward – they want to go home, or they want a friend, or they want to have a favorite meal one more time. Maybe they just really, really want a pony. Whatever it is, they want something, and for whatever reason, no matter how small it is, they can’t have it right now.

Is the wish temporarily unattainable, or is it permanent? Is it something they’ve always wanted, or a new desire? Does anyone else know about the wish, or do they keep it secret?

Write a story about a wish.

BONUS GOAL: “Be careful what you wish for.”
