"Your Heart's Desire"


A crisp breeze lingered in the air on this chilly Autumn day. The once vibrant leaves have begun to change, turning brilliant oranges and yellows before falling gently to the ground, paper-thin and brown. Two friends were raking up a pile of these leaves on this brisk afternoon.

Jay: This is so boring, why don't we go out and have some fun?

Calvin: We're almost done... my dad said we need to finish this before lunch.

Daisy runs past the two boys, leaping into the air and jumping into the huge pile of leaves, scattering them everwhere.

Jay: DAISY!! We just raked those, you nutter! Now we'll have to do it all over again!

Daisy gets up and brushes the crinkley leaves off her jacket.

Daisy: Come on boys, I've got a better idea... I was walking home from school today and I passed by this new shop... there's a wierd old man there, you have to meet him!

Jay and Calvin exchanged glances and rolled their eyes.

Calvin: We'll pass Daze, we have work to do.

Jay: Yeah, shouldn't you take the girls on your little shopping spree anyway?

Daisy paused then said: The old man there said he has your hearts desire, anything you want... for a price. Look at this locket I got!

Daisy showed them an intricate silver locket clasped with a delicate ruby rose.

Calvin: Woah Daze, that looks really expensive...

Daisy: Yeah, but wait till you see when I open it...

Daisy opened the locket and a black and white photo of a stunningly beautiful woman was inside.

Jay: Hey Daze... that woman looks alot like you, is it your gran when she was younger?

Daisy: Yes! It's amazing! My one wish was to see a picture of my gran, who died when I was little... and when I went in the shop, the old man gave me this- it was amazing! I don't know how he could have gotten hold my my grans old locket!

Daisy closed the locket and smiled: Now will you come with me to check it out?

Calvin: Hmm, he has our heart's desire, for a price...? Well, it beats rakin these leaves all day, let's go Jay!

Calvin and Jay dropped the rakes and the three friends hopped on their bikes, peddaling down the cobbled street towards the mysterious shop. The sky began to darken as thick black clouds rolled into the sky. None of the three had noticed that fine grey streaks had begun to appear in Daisy's hair...

Chapter 2

After a 20 minute ride, the three friends came to a halt outside of a small shop on the outskirts of town. The exterior of the building was rather plain, except for a large, oval-shaped door. The three walked up to the door, which was old and deeply scarred, made from some ancient tree a long time ago. Faint gold lettering was written on the door saying "Your Heart's Desire."

Jay: So this is it, eh? It doesn't look special... are you putting us on, Daze?

Calvin: Yeah... I'm not gonna be too happy if you made us ride all the way out here for some stupid girly shopping trip...

Daisy: Don't worry guys, have I ever let you down??
Daisy bit her lip and quickly said: Wait... don't answer that! Anyways, let's go in, it's about to rain!

A smattring of cold, fat raindrops were already starting to fall from the darkened sky. The crisp wind began to howl and stir, a sure sign that a storm was on the way.

Jay looked up at the sky, trying not to sound scared: Yeah umm... she's right Calvin let... let's go in!

Daisy pushed on the heavy wooden door- it creaked loudly as if it hadn't been open for years. The three friends stepped in.

The interior of the shop was cramped and dark. A faintly musty smell pervaded the room, reeking of old books or moth balls. The room was completely bare, save for a small glass counter pushed up against the far wall. A little velvet curtain, pulled closed, led further into the shop. An eerie yellow glow came from behind the curtain.

Calvin: Uh... Daze... I don't know if we should be here...

Jay: Yeah.. umm, it looks like nobody is here! Why don't we just leave...

At the sound of Jay's last words, the curtain thrust open and the boys gasped in horror at what they saw.

Chapter 3

A kindly old man with silver-rimmed glasses smiled down at the boys.

Daisy: What's WRONG with you two? You almost wet yourself, didn't you Calvin?! Jeeze, why so jumpy?

Calvin: Oh err...

The old man, dressed in a fuzzy silver cardigan matching is curly gray hair, chuckled softly and said: What, did you think I was a big scary monster?

Jay: Oh, no sir! I guess we were just a little jumpy because of the storm outside... anyways, I'm Jay and this is Calvin. I think you already met Daisy...

Old man: Hullo boys! My name is Alastair. Are you still enjoying that locket, Daisy?

Daisy: Oh yes- I love it! I forgot to ask, how did you manage to find my gran's old locket?

Alastair grunted and looked around nervously: Oh... I'm not sure. I've travelled the world in search of all of my posessions, who knows where I found it?

Alastair took a deep breath before continuing: Now kids, do you want to come into the back room so I can show you my prized posessions?

The boys nodded and Alastair led the three behind the curtain into a small, cozy room. It was filled from floor to ceiling with old, brown cardboard boxes heaping over with everything imaginable. Calvin brushed past the nearest box and noticed that it contained a fuzzy brown teddy bear missing an eye, a very expensive looking watch, a box of sweets, and many other various things.

Alastair: Sorry about the mess! You see, I've just moved in and haven't gotten the chance to unpack properly.

Jay glanced around at the overflowing boxes and said: Blimey... you sure have a lot of stuff...

Alastair: Quite right young man, quite right... now, have you two come to find your hearts desire?

Calvin quickly glanced down at his feet, while the painful pang of love hit him hard. He angrily said: I doubt you have my hearts desire here old man... Aaron's already nicked her!

Daisy and Jay's mouths dropped open in surprise. When Calvin saw their expressions he quickly said: Oh, did I say her... umm... err... I mean my Rachel Stevens poster! That's right... he nicked my Rach poster! And err... it's my hearts desire to have it back!

The old man looked down at him with a mysterious expression. Calvin became uncomfortable, as it felt like the old man knew exactly what Calvin was really thinking.

Alastair: Hmm... I think I know exactly what your heart desires... but you'll have to come back here tomorrow, I need to get it out of storage.

Calvin blushed and quickly said: Umm right... okay.

While the three friends were standing in the cramped room, a heavy rain began to patter loudly on the rooftop.

Alastair: Now, Jay! What's your heart's desire? Let's have it then!

Jay thought for a moment than spoke up: Well, I guess I'd like a new bike... my old one is old and rusty- it doesn't go nearly as fast as Calvin and Daisy's...

Just then a loud crack of thunder boomed through the air, making the three friends jump in surprise. Calvin glanced at his watched and noticed that it was nearly 6 PM.

Calvin: Oh, man! My dad is gonna KILL me! Come on guys, we have to go.

Jay and Daisy, realising how late it was, quickly agreed. They said goodbye to the old man and hurried outside. The rain was pouring down in heavy sheets, quickly soaking all three.

Jay: Oh no! We're in for it now... I'll be grounded for a week, no doubt!

In their hurry to get home, the three friends hopped onto their bikes and raced home as fast as they could. They huffed and puffed up the cobbled street back towards their houses. When Jay realised he was far ahead of Daisy and Calvin, he stopped and looked down at his rusty, old bike.

Jay: How did I get so far ahead with this piece of Junk?

As Jay looked down, he noticed that he wasn't riding his old bicycle, but rather a brand new red speed bike. A crack of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the darkened dusk. Jay suddenly realised that he had to get home as quickly as possible, and quickly pedalled the rest of the way home.

He sped up his driveway and threw open the door shouting: Mum, Dad it's me! Sorry I'm late, I...

Jay noticed that the house was completely dark and silent- no lights were turned on and the familiar sound of the telly was gone.

Jay: Mum... Dad...?

Jay went from room to room, looking for his parents.

Jay: Hmm, they must have gone out... I bet they left a note on the kitchen table.

When Jay reached the kitchen, there was no note on the kitchen table. He glanced out the window and noticed that both his parents cars were still there.

Jay: Wierd, I wonder where they are... they couldn't have gone anywhere in this storm without their cars... I better call the neighbors to see if they've seen em...

As Jay was about to ring someone for help, a cold hand slipped over his mouth. Jay's eyes widened in terror and he tried to scream, but no sound escaped his lips...

Meanwhile, Calvin was lying in his bed, thinking about the evening's events.

Calvin: That old man was so creepy... why did Daisy bring us there anyway?! He seemed to know exactly what I was thinking when he asked my heart's desire..

Calvin chuckled softly and then thought to himself: No... that's impossible... nobody could possibly know my secret...
