Haruko turned away from the window and slumped onto the bed. "This has gotten way out of control. We have to get back."
Meanwhile, Natsuko stood in the middle of the room, looking torn. "But what about Mistress Mandy? She said we have customers waiting."
"There's no time for that, Karyn. Besides, we shouldn't even be here. I'm sure Mistress Mandy will do just fine without us."
"If you say so." Natsuko obviously wanted to stay, but her new subservience to Haruko kept her from contradicting the other girl.
"Right." Getting up, Haruko held up the stone and frowned. "We just need the right wish to return us to our own time."
