Chapter 44 Summary

Ophelia hurries over to check if Gabe is okay. She examines him and finds him sound asleep. Wading into the creek, she finally retrieves Kasarah’s coin. The coin softly whispers Kasarah’s wish, but beneath the girl’s words, Ophelia hears Gabe’s longing for his father to come home.

Ophelia faces a moral dilemma: She wishes she could fulfill Gabe’s wish, but she realizes that granting his wish would go against the rules. Ophelia apologizes to the sleeping Gabe just as Charlie’s voice calls out from the trees.

Charlie says that Ophelia accidentally triggered the distress signal when the truck hit her. While Squint organized a rescue team, Charlie, acting without permission, followed the wish to save Ophelia. He is astonished to discover that Kasarah’s coin now holds two wishes. Recognizing Ophelia’s inner conflict about which wish to grant, he understands she is torn. Ophelia seeks advice, but Charlie leaves the decision to her. Their conversation is interrupted by Squint, who instructs Ophelia to step away from the coin and drop her vial of fairy dust.
