I was young and stupid. There was this boy on the bus that I liked and sat next to him everyday. He told me that he was a genie and I believed him! I wanted to put a spell on my brother so he would be nice to me. He said he gave me this wishing spirit or something and I hid it in my bag. I went over to my brother when I came home. I opened my bag and cupped my hands (thinking there was some cool energy stuff in there) and tossed it at him. He just looked at me weird...
