Once upon a time, there lived a young girl named Lily who lived in a ragged old house with her family. She had always felt envious of her friends who lived in modern and beautiful homes.

One day, while playing in the attic, Lily found a strange looking box. She opened it and to her surprise, she discovered a genie! The genie granted her three wishes, and without hesitation, Lily wished for a new and modern house.

The genie snapped his fingers, and just like that, Lily's old and ragged house was replaced with a brand-new and modern home! But, Lily soon realized that her new house was too "modern" and lacked the raw and primitive charm of her old home.

Feeling unsatisfied, Lily used her second wish to turn her new house into a primordial and raw castle. The castle was filled with rugged stone walls and crude wooden furniture. It was like stepping back in time!

However, after a few days, Lily began to feel that the castle was too juvenile and she missed the comfort and luxury of her modern house. So, she used her last wish to turn the castle into a beautiful and mature mansion.

The mansion was the perfect balance of old and new, with antique furniture and modern amenities. It was truly a novel and unique home that was perfect for a young girl like Lily. She was finally happy and content in her new home and lived happily ever after.

The end.
