Jake picked up the old lamp in the grungy little store, and looked at the price tag. He was irked that it said, serious inquiries only. He looked for a made in China mark, and finding none he decided to ask the grubby merchant what he wanted for it.

"Ah I see you have a good eye, for you $200 cash only." Rich would be glad to get that pesky thing off his hands, it had only caused him trouble. He had wished to be Filthy Rich, and he woke up a camel dung salesman named Rich. He'd worked his way back to America, but no matter what he did, he always smelled faintly of dung.

Whoever said genies didn't have a sense of humor, had obviously never met one.

"Cash?" Jake protested he didn't carry that kind of money on him.

The grubby merchant yanked the lamp from his hands and said, "Cash only."

Jake felt a surge of indignation and pulled out his wallet and begin counting out $127. "$100 I'll need cash for a cab and lunch."

The grubby hand swiped his cash away rapidly, removed the tag from the lamp, and thrust it back into his hands. "Fine, go, it's yours, I never want to see it, or you again."


Jake should have been more suspicious but as he took the cab home, he wondered what had ever prompted his purchase. He was eating pizza when he decided to clean up the lamp, using an old (but clean) pair of underwear to rub away the grime that had accumulated on the lamp.

Poof, his apartment filled with what had to be a hallucinogenic green smoke, and when it cleared the hottest woman he'd ever seen was standing in the middle of the room, she was wearing a filmy garment that only made her body look more desirable. Her hair was jet black, her eyes were green like the smoke, and her skin was impossible dark. Like a babe carved from ebony.

She bowed, her long luxurious pony tail bobbing along her back as she greeted him, "Hello master, your wish is my command."

Jake

Jake couldn't believe what was happening. Like a story from a two bit novel the gorgeous Genie's presence filled the room. Jake was a drifter. Moving from one job to the next, never really establishing himself. He was mediocre in so many ways. Just under 6", 15 pounds overweight. Smart, but not intelligent enough to hold down a permanent position for more than 18 months.

He moved from small apartment, to smaller as his finances allowed. His love life was near non existent. He dated, but was always unsure of himself around the ladies. Close to his 32nd birthday he had only slept with two women and those were a one night stand with a drunken barmaid and a 2 month tryst with a women in her late 40's.

Wondering if there was anyway this wasn't a dream he pondered her words "Hello Master, your wish is my command."

Being the simple man he was Jake looked to her and stammered, "All I have ever wanted from life was a nice place to live, a good job, and a beautiful woman to spend my time with."

He couldn't help but hope that she might be that women to grant him everything he had dreamed of.
