The Curse of the Cat People Page #2

Oh, boy, I bet that tastes good.

- You got to blow them all out at once.

- Amy, make a wish.

Wish real hard, blow out the candles,

and your wish will come true.

- But wishes don't come true.

- Certain wishes do.

You told me in the garden that the wish

about the tree couldn't come true.

Well, this is different. Go on, blow.

Oh, Amy, you'll get your wish.

You know what I wished, Daddy?

I wished I could be a good girl.

Now it's all ruined.

You shouldn't speak your wish.

But, Edward...

...with this kind of a wish

that doesn't matter.

I can make this sort

of a wish come true.

I'll be just like Daddy wants me to be.

Play with the other children...

...not sit around by myself...

- ... tell the truth.

- That's right, darling.

And you'll make Mommy

and Daddy very happy.

- Good morning, Edward.

- Good morning, Amy.

Hello, Jack.

Look who's coming.

- What comes next?

- Double knocks, of course.

I just seem to stay

in double knocks forever.

It's very hard to do anything with

somebody breathing down your neck.

May I play too?

You might just as well stop

being nice to us, Amy Reed.

- We're mad at you.

- Why?

Because you said you were going

to invite us to your birthday party.

- And you didn't.

- But I did. I did invite you.

Look at the giraffe.

Look at the giraffe.

Run faster.

Run! Run faster!

Ditch her!

I did invite you to my party.

I did, I did, I did.

We ditched her. Serves her right.

- The old house.

- It's haunted.

There's a witch in it.

Count three, count four

Run past the door

That's the best thing

to say for witches.

Little girl. Come into the garden.

It's pleasant and cool here.

Come into the garden.

Little girl.

Step back, away from the house...

...so that I can see you.

Give me that.

Go away, little girl. Go away.

- May I have my milk, Edward?

- Certainly, little miss.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Look at my ring.

- That's a fine-looking ring.

- A lady threw it to me.

Most surely that was a nice lady

to give a ring to a little girl.

It's a pretty ring.

I wouldn't be a bit surprised

if it were a true wishing ring.

A ring that I can wish on

like I wished on the candles?

Maybe. If it's a real morning ring

like we have in Jamaica...

...all you've got to do

is turn it on your finger...

- ... close your eyes and make a wish.

- If it's a real morning ring...

...I'm going to think hard

for something I want...

...more than anything

in the world before I wish.

That's the clever way to do it.

You look good and hot

and good and tired.

You played real hard with your friends?

I didn't play, Edward.

They wouldn't play with me.

Your daddy isn't going to like that.
