"I wish I was the sexiest and most popular girl at school," Melissa said. She smiled, believing that it would be granted to her. But it wasn't. Instead, it was granted to Jon.
Jon looked down at herself, pretty sure of what would happen. Her body became voluptuous, her hair became luxurious, and she just basically had an overall sexier look about her. She wouldn't be able to experience her new popularity, however, until she went to school the next day.
"Melissa!" Jon yelled, noticing that her voice also sounded sexier, even when she was mad. "I told you not to wish for anything!"
"I don't get it," Melissa said. "Why was it granted to you?"
Jon huffed. Was Melissa a total airhead? Did she not hear Jon warning her?
But, regardless, this turn of events did give Jon a special opportunity. Following the pattern of this "wish chain", the next person to make a wish (that would come true) was Jon. And according to the pattern, her wish would be granted to herself.
And Jon knew exactly what she was going to wish for.
