“Dude! You just gained over forty pounds of solid muscle while we were walking around the mall! That doesn’t impress you?” John said to his Chinese friend Kyle. Both boys were 18 and were students at the local community college. John had just discovered that all his wishes were coming true starting that morning.
John quietly wished for a large mirror to appear on the blank wall before them, and that happened.
“Hey, look here! Look at yourself in the mirror!” John spoke, pointing at the mirror which he made appear out of nowhere through a silent wish.
Kyle stood there and posed, grinning when he noticed his bigger muscles for the first time.
“Wow, I’m in better shape than I thought!”
“Of course, you are! I made you get in shape just now!” John laughed. “What can I do to impress you, dude?”
“Well, our school basketball team just totally sucks right now! If you can improve all the guys on the team, THEN I will be impressed with your magical, wishing abilities!” Kyle explained.
“Deal! What time is practice?” you asked him.
“It’s at 3 this afternoon!”
“No, then it’s 3 right now and we’re gonna be at the basketball court, right NOW!” John said, snapping his fingers.
Kyle and John instantly teleported to the gym where a small Chinese basketball team was warming up. The boys were all passing, dribbling, and shooting at the hoop when John made a silent wish, for all members of the team to play at their best. Also, he wanted every member of the team to gain thirty pounds of solid muscle!
Suddenly, every boy stopped whatever they were doing as the gym was filled with loud groans. Every player on Kyle’s team gained more muscle, all thanks to John’s wish. Every guy on the team saw their arms bulge, their chest inflates, and their legs gain tons of muscle in their quads and calves. Within seconds, every boy on the team looked like a junior bodybuilder!
“Whoa! What did you do to the guys on the team? They look different! Every single one of them!” Once Kyle noticed, every boy started dribbling and passing the balls again.
“I fixed them up and made them all more buff, just like I did to you a few minutes ago! Now, go play with the rest of the team!” John told his friend.
The Chinese basketball team, which had a dismal record, finally won their first game. Not only that, but it was a blowout. They beat a local college team by more than forty points! It was incredible. The guys were making all their shots!
John was incredibly pleased. He helped an entire basketball team, so he knew he could do much more. As he walked out of the gym and stepped outside, where the old, outdoor basketball court was, he spotted…
