The next morning, when she woke up, Karyn went through her normal morning routine. As she was about ready to leave for school, she realized that she better make sure the stone was in a safe place.
When she looked around, however, she couldn't see it anywhere. After a minute, though, she realized that one thing did look familiar, if out of place. The box in which Jon had received the stone was sitting on her desk. But I didn't bring that home... I only brought the stone, she thought to herself.
With some trepidation, she opened the box, and saw the stone inside with the original letter. Or maybe not the original letter, she thought as she quickly scanned it. It was addressed to her!
Thinking quickly, she grabbed the phone, and dialed Jon's number from memory. After several rings, an answering machine picked up, saying, "Hello, you have reached the Kingston residence. We're not home..."
She hung up before it got any further. What had she done?
