Sarah smiled, "Well Maddie, I hope that you enjoy your new life, and I will see you tomorrow. Oh, and be careful what you choose to do with yourself. You may find things changing in rather unexpected ways if you aren't."
He chuckled, "Alright. Thanks again."
He closed the door on the car, and started walking towards the house, reaching into his pocket for his key. He turned around to wave to Sarah, and stopped. Her car was gone. He looked both ways down the street, but couldn't see it. There was no way that she could've gotten off his street that quickly. That's when he realized that he hadn't given her any instructions on how to get to his house.
He shook his head, wondering if maybe he'd been so bored walking home that he'd just imagined the whole thing. He knew that he had an active imagination, but it had never felt that real before. However, there was no sign that Sarah even existed, and cars didn't just disappear. Did they? She did say she granted wishes, but that was just preposterous. Wasn't it?
Shivering slightly, he made his way to the front door and quietly unlocked it. Opening it slowly, he made his way upstairs towards his room and closed the door behind him with a soft click. Nimbly maneuvering across his room, he turned on the small lamp on the nightstand beside his bed and looked around.
His bed was unmade with a couple of sheets and a blue quilt, while clothes littered the carpeted floor. His closet was slightly ajar, and his television was still on, a game paused on the screen. His writing desk was cluttered with homework he hadn't completed yet, and his backpack lay open on the chair pushed under the desk.
He glanced at the clock and decided he had a bit of time before he had to go to bed to do something.
