A Simple Wish

She stood there with her eyes transfixed, full of wishes that will never be fulfilled in her lifetime.
Go away you piece of rag and don’t block my customers“, shouted the owner, ignoring her wishful eyes.
He got up and took his usual order of chocolate brownie icecream from the counter thus walking out of the icecream parlor.
Take it“, he said with all the kindness but the five-year-old took it only after persistent convincing.
Her eyes which were full of sadness had lit up and her face that lacked smile now glowed with happiness!
