That comet was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in my entire life. A bright star, coming so close that it lit up the sky, with its long, shining tail.
It was even a little scary, but it was beautiful.
I almost forgot the most important thing; the wish.
So I started to focus on what I wanted so badly. I took a deep breath and finally asked.
"I want to have Denny Camara’s life"
My eyes still penetrating that incredible glow, left everything dark around.
I took a sip from the bottle of drink, and looked at Rubi, she was smiling in awe at the comet slowly leaving.
Theo Urione: So is that it? It makes this majestic appearance and disappears for years?
Rubi Castor: No. It takes a whole month to pass around the earth. Here in Filancity, it started to look like this, super visible, but we can see it again in thirty days in a telescope. And then yes, it doesn’t appear anymore.
Theo Urione: What a thing, so it doesn’t go straight!? It circles the whole earth?
Rubi Castor: That's right. But it does this in a spiral, and each time, it gets further away. It's an amazing phenomenon. Don't you think?
Theo Urione: Yes it is... But also a little bizarre.
Rubi Castor: Anxious to see your wish come true?
Theo Urione: Look, I'm not really. While it was passing by, it was almost possible to wrap myself in a magical atmosphere. At that moment I even believed that everything was possible, but after it left no. Everything went back to normal in my head.
Rubi Castor: Don't doubt magical things! Sometimes not on time, it's over time.
Theo Urione: Seriously!? So there's no grace, I want my wish to happen now.

At that moment, I got really annoyed. When I looked at that comet I realized it was wonderful and felt a strange thing, as if something good could really happen. But right afterwards, that whole feeling was gone.

We stayed there for a few more hours. We drank the drinks we had brought, and ate all the snacks. After that I felt a little dizzy, I tried to get up but fell.
Rubi Castor: Whoa Theo? It wasn't even that much alcohol. I know you've drunk more than that!
Rubi helped me to my feet.
Rubi Castor: I'm going to put you to bed now. So hope the elevator is working, otherwise we'll go down these stairs rolling.
Theo Urione: Heavens! Hope it's working. Which is normally uncertain.
Rubi Castor: This elevator sucks. Doesn't the trustee do anything?
Theo Urione: We don't even know who he is. He must be a guy with money and lives traveling, because reality doesn't matter.
Rubi Castor: That's discouraging. People should be more considerate of others. Knowing your limitation, they should have made sure the elevator was always working.
Theo Urione: Gee! As if, dear. They would never make exclusive modifications for the only cripple in the building.
Rubi Castor: But one day another one might come. One of them could even have an accident, you never know.
To our despair, the elevator was not working.
Rubi Castor: Oh, how infuriating! I don't believe this! I myself will come here to find out who this trustee is and put an end to his race!
She looked at me, and she was so cute, her cheeks red with anger.
Rubi Castor: That's it Theo, We're going to have to go down the stairs. Hold on to me, and let's go slowly, okay?
Theo Urione: Okay, but if you see that you've lost your balance, or that you're going to fall... Just let me go, okay? We don't need two crippled friends, one has to be whole to help the other.
We both burst out laughing just before we started to descend.
Rubi was focused all the way, step by step she didn't make a single joke, until we finally reached the front door of my apartment.
Rubi Castor: Phew! I can't believe it. That was scarily insane.
Theo Urione: You're the best! Can you help me get to my bed?
Rubi Castor: Okay, but I'm going to have instant noodles as payment.
Theo Urione: You can have whatever you want!
Rubi left me on the bed, opened my cupboard and took out a packet of instant noodles. She locked the door, and passed the key underneath, as we always did.

The next day I woke up more refreshed than I thought I would be. My room seemed brighter, and the green curtains added an elegance to the window, where the sunlight came in.
I sat on the edge of the bed and put my feet on the floor.
Theo Urione: Where are my slippers?
I decided to look on the other side of the bed, and I found it, but it was different, it was just one strip, for all the toes and wide.
Theo Urione: Rubi, she left this gift here and snuck out. You sly dog.
Suddenly, I looked around, and I saw that my whole room was different. And even more, I was seeing this perfectly.
Theo Urione: Am I healed!? I can't believe it.
I covered my left eye with my hand, and my right eye could see everything normally.
Theo Urione: Aha! I still can't believe it, I'm cured! How wonderful, but how did that happen?
I stood up and walked towards the bathroom. And one more encouraging thing I noticed. My legs were also healed. I jumped like an idiot.
Theo Urione: Ah! How wonderful! I'm healed! Could it have been that comet? I didn't ask for that... But what happiness.... Unless I'm dreaming. It could be... I'm going to pee, and if I feel it wet everything, I'll wake up.
Theo went to the toilet bowl, but when he lowered his pants, he noticed a remarkable difference.
Theo Urione: Wait a minute... What kind of ridiculous belly is this? Could it be the drink from yesterday? No... Not even the color of my skin is the same. Oh no!? My dick doesn't look the same either... It's bigger!?
Theo finished urinating and looked at himself in the bathroom mirror.
Theo Urione: AAAAAAAH! It can't be! I look just like Denny Camara!?
