Magic
Someone knocked on the door so Chloe got up to answer it. There was a delivery guy with a package.
"Chloe Sullivan?"
"Yes."
"Sign here please."
Chloe signed her name and handed the clipboard back.
"Have a nice day."
"Thanks. You too."
Chloe shut the door wondering what was in the box. She opened it and after taking out the Styrofoam peanuts she found a couch.
"What the hell?"
She noticed an envelope so she pulled it out and found a letter inside.
Dear Chloe
Congratulations you have been selected to wield the magic couch.
"Magic couch?"
It looked like someone grabbed a couch out of some little gir's dollhouse. She continued reading.
Just rub the couch while patting your belly to get your heart's desire.
Chloe started laughing since it was ridiculous. This had to be a joke. She decided to try it just for the hell of it.
"Okay here goes nothing."
Chloe rubbed the couch with her left hand and with her right she patted her belly.
"How long am I supposed to do this? I'm so glad I'm alone."
Someone knocked on the door so Chloe stopped the rubbing and patting to open it.
"You?"
Clark was standing there smiling at her. He grabbed her and kissed her.
