Tom Can't

He looks at her, so confused. He's messed up his wife. He made careless wishes and ruined the woman he loved.

"I need a minute, uh, to freshen up, hun." he said and turned toward the washroom.

Freshen up. What a lame excuse. He walked inside and washed his face, trying to think. Ok. Maybe he could wish he didn't wish the last two wishes? Would that work?

He held the ring in his pocket and wished, "I wish I hadn't wished the last two wishes." He waited for the shift in reality but nothing happened. "Shit." he muttered. He thought for a moment and took the ring in his hand again, "I wish my wife had been born a woman and did not have a sex change." He thought about it again and hastily added, "I also wish he looked like a beautiful woman. The same woman I married." Reality shifted and he felt relief. He looked out the door for his confused wife and there she was, as pretty as ever, looking at him expectantly.
