Homesick

The tiny man in a green suit sat under the shade of a tree, thinking.
It had been a busy week in the city. He had granted wishes to several lucky people. It was a noisy place, with very little greenery and so far from home. He didn’t like it much. He was sitting in one of the few places that had a small group of trees. He was thinking about all this when, to his amazement, he saw a fellow leprechaun coming his way. This was indeed odd, because it was very rare that anyone ever saw two of them together! Anyway, this got him working on an idea that would have him return home in the quickest of fashions. He would have his newfound friend grant him a wish, and he would wish to go home, and return to the emerald isle.
He jumped up and waved him over.
After putting the idea to him, the other agreed. Without hesitation, he granted him a wish.
The homesick leprechaun stood perfectly still for a few seconds, preparing himself, before saying that he wished to go home…
Nothing happened.
