(Two wishes, killing two birds with a stone.)

After waiting for about thirty minutes, the attendant that walked in with Gianna came back trembling.
My heart raced on fear, I was on my feet in an instant, taking long strides to the attendant.
"Where's Gianna??" She looked up at me with teary eyes. "Answer me" I shook her shoulders.
"I can't find her sir" she finally replied
"What do you mean you can't find her?"
"She told me to take her to the toilet and wait in the lobby when I didn't see her come out, I went in and saw the toilet was empty."
"Quick, send her photo out. Let every cab driver know looking for a girl. Damn, block roads too and conduct a search before you allow them through. Report anything suspicious." I ordered
"Yes boss" my guards replied and half of them went to do what I ordered.
I couldn't stay put, I was restless and agitated. What if she was kidnapped?
I was so worried until a call came through that she was spotted on the beach with a boy.
I was so relieved and angry. I drove home to deliberate on ways to scold her. I had laid out my plans but when I saw her walked through the door timidly, everything dissipated and I was filled with worry instead.
"Where were you?" I asked her when she entered the living room.
"I went to see Matt" she replied.
That Matt she keeps talking about?
"Who's he?"
Her eyes turned dreamy "he's a cute and friendly guy..... he's my friend, he's one in a mil....." She said.
I felt a pang of jealousy hit me "Shut up Gianna" I interrupted "snap out of it. Stop dreaming"
"I was giving a description" she frowned
"You need punishment. Next time you wouldn't run out on me again. Do you know how worried I was?!"
"Am I kindergarten?"
I stared at her coldly "Okay fine, I accept your punishment" she added
"write out one to thousand in words" I replied simply
"What?? Isn't there a better punishment for me?" She moved closer to me.
What's this girl up to?? What crazy thing does she want to do this time?
"What do you mean by that?" I asked "I'm not in the mood for play Gigi, what are you hin...."
She closed the gap between us and crashed her lips on mine.
To say I was stunned is an understatement.
I relaxed and gave her access to my mouth. Who would know that Gianna would be the first to take a lead on me.
We pulled apart to catch our breath
~ Gianna ~
What do I do now since we've stopped kissing.
Run!!!
So I ran to my room and locked the door, how do I face him tomorrow??
I surfed the net and found an animal shelter on sale. The owner needs money that's why he put it on sale.
I got his contact and spoke with him. He sounded stressed and tired over the phone so instead, I bought the animal shelter as planned from him and gave it to him, then I sent him more money for upkeep and any expenses.
I have an animal shelter now. I loosened a knot from the bracelet.
I can't believe I'm still doing this, I've trying really hard not to cry or think about my predicament. A lone tear trickled down my face.
"Oh c'mon Gigi, you didn't cry when the doctor dropped the bad news, why are you crying now?"
"Try to live an happy life and do whatever makes you happy" I remembered my grandpa's words and cleaned my tears.
I have just three wishes left and I seriously can't believe I'm catching feelings for both Wesley and Matt.
I soaked myself in a hot tub and relaxed. Everything will be alright.
******************
I brought out the golden orbs iny bag and made a necklace with them.
I made sure to hide them under my shirt because of thieves. The orbs can't be in my bag forever, I need to make use of them even if it's for a little time.
" I'm going out" I announced to Wesley
"Where?" He asked
"Make one of my wishes come true"
"Didn't I say....."
"No Wesley" I said firmly, filled with determination. "I'm going to do whatever it takes to live out those wishes"
"Which of them?" He replied softly
"I don't know yet. If I need a ride, I call you"
"Is it an Animal shelter?" He asked
"No, I did that yesterday"
"What? How?"
"Online"
"Ohhh"
"Yes, bye" I replied and proceed to make my Grand exit.
"Do you have my number?" His voice stopped me cold.
Shii.......
I turned swiftly on my feet and smiled sweetly at him "No"
My phone buzzed in my hand
"Save it" he said and continued eating.
I nodded and breathed out.
The sun shone brightly on me as I stepped out. A perfect day for sightseeing.
I had bought an entire concert online yesterday and I'm sure the artist wouldn't know she'll be playing for me.
The concert is to hold by five pm, so I went sightseeing and left a voicemail message for Matt to meet me in front on the concert hall by five.
Change of plans, I can't be the only one in the concert.
Matt and I met as planned on front of the hall and walked in holding hands. I felt like a very important person as I entered the hall.
"You're insane Gigi, how can you buy an entire concert? Where did you get the money?"
"My life savings"
"Hmph"
We sat side by side and awaited the first artist to come on stage.
The artist finally came on stage, left and came back.
"How could you?" He asked over the microphone.
"Well you have your money, don't you?"
He shook his head exasperatedly and began singing.
The shows went on till midnight, there was music, plays and comedies.
The last person on stage was singing a really sad song, I put my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes.
"I'm guessing this would be the famous Matt" A very cold voice broke through the music.
"Wesley??!"
