[ WP ] A genie grants you one wish , so you wish to meet the girl of your dreams . There 's a flash and in a moment standing in front of you is ... your girlfriend of two weeks from 8th grade .

When I told the genie my wish, even I could n't quite believe what I'd asked for. I'd spoken too quickly, had n't thought it thorough at all. But is n't that what wishes are supposed to be? 
 
 `` Are you... very sure?'' he asked. 
 
 `` I... I think I am. I have to know.'' I said. 
 
 `` It is your wish, sir, but you're hardly young enough to start...'' 
 
 `` No, it's not for that. I just have to know.'' 
 
 `` It is not mine to question. Your wish is granted.'' 
 
 And there she was. We were both stunned, she from being brought instantly before me, and me with surprise that comes from instant recognition. 
 
 `` Jennifer?'' 
 
 `` Brad? How did I get here? What happened?'' 
 
 It took some time to explain the workings of how a man of nearly seventy accidentally found and activated a magic lamp and made his wish. 
 
 `` So that means that I'm the girl of your dreams, then?'' 
 
 `` I guess so. I do n't think a genie can be wrong.'' 
 
 `` Why would you wish for this, now?'' 
 
 `` I had to know. I know we had a bit of a rough start...'' 
 
 `` We were kids, Brad. You know I do n't even consider what we did *dating*. Besides, did n't it all work out in the end?'' 
 
 `` Of course, dear. I guess I always knew.'' 
 
 `` Knew what, honey?'' 
 
 `` That I'd married the girl of my dreams.''
