Biting on her lip she hesitated then nodded. "Alright," she whispered, shaking lightly.

"I can't connect!" she exploded a bit, a tear running. "How can I grant your wish without my magic?"

"You're not imposing. I invited you to sit down." He grabbed a tissue box off the end table and handed it to her. "Tissue?"

"She said her car broke down and asked to use my phone. I don't remember her name, or even if she gave it to me...But she was kinda like you, like she didn't belong here...Too pretty...to perfect...if that makes sense..."
