I got the magic in me

I have this magical power. That might sound like a wonderful thing, and it would be if I could use it to do good. So far it's only brought me grief. It is thankfully, a limited magic and I try never to invoke it. It's far too dangerous. But sometimes it gets away from me when I'm not paying close attention. It happened today.

Fortunately, I live with a Wizard with powers of his own. He's generally able to undo the inadvertent mishaps that occur when my magical powers go astray. I have often watched him preform his counter spells; hunched over the calamity, waving his hands and muttering words I can't quite make out. He's amazingly persistent and eventually manages to overcome my magical devastation.

When everything is back to normal, he stares sternly at me. Then he says the same thing he's said a dozen times before. I nod and smile and pretend to understand his mystical words. Then, convinced of my remorse, he smiles kindly and invites me to lunch.

Lunch is a word I understand. Perhaps one day I will also grasp his powerful yet inscrutable incantation.
