Description

Later on in the afternoon, Stefania and Tony returned to the hotel. When it became evening, they wondered why Martha wasn’t at the reception desk. And now, it was night time, and Martha was still nowhere to be seen. Stefania asked the receptionist: “Good day. I’m looking for your co-worker, Martha. Have you seen her today?”

“I’m sorry, but she’s been missing all day. We don’t know where she is!”

“Thank you!” Stefania replied. She was definitely worried now, since Martha would surely have left a note for them. She headed straight for the place where Martha’s lamp was sitting. Of course, Tony would learn about Martha’s secret, but Stefania felt that her friend needed her help now. This was more important.

“Where are you going?” Tony asked.

“To Martha’s place.”

“But these are the restrooms only.” Tony continued

“I know. But that’s not where she lives.” Stefania replied. “This is where she lives” Stefania took Martha’s lamp and rubbed it.

“Darling, what are you doing?” Tony asked, completely confused.

“Tony, I know this must sound weird. But Martha is a genie.”

“What?!? You know that genies are just in fairytales, right?” Tony replied, obviously thinking Stefania had gone crazy. Stefania was still rubbing the lamp, but nothing happened. “See, it’s just a fairytale.” Tony answered in a calm manner. “I understand that you worry about Martha; I’m worried too. But there must be another explanation....”, he tried to argue. Meanwhile Stefania had spotted the lamp on the second pedestal. As she reached for it, Tony grabbed her hand.

“What are you doing?” she asked indignantly.

“This nonsense has to stop now.” Tony spoke.

“Tony! You are the love of my life. And I would never ask something impossible from you. But now, I just ask you to trust me!” Stefania begged.

Tony was baffled. Finally he found his voice again: “Alright. I’ll trust you on this. Even if it sounds unbelievable. Go ahead!”

Stefania rubbed the second lamp. Nothing happened. Stefania felt her stomach contract. She didn’t dare to look into Tony’s eyes. Suddenly the lamp began to vibrate and blue smoke poured out of it. It formed into the shape of a middle-aged man of middle-eastern origin.

“I’m Sami, genie of the lamp. You got one wish and only one. How may I serve you, Mistress?”
