Yes! Thus comes the ending of every wish "for the highest good of all concerned"

As I walked toward the bus station, I made a phone call or sent an sms and was just putting my phone away when someone squeaked behind me. I looked around, saw a tram coming toward me and stopped the last second, not to get hit by it. If that someone hadn't got my attention, I wouldn't be here typing this right now. (In case she's reading this, THANK YOU!!!!!!!! *hugs* )

But that wasn't all. When I crossed a street again, a black car appeared from an unexpected place and I was lucky that I didn't get hit by it.

Then I got on a bus and made her take that wish back because I thought the bus was gonna crash if I didn't.
