Karyn and her family stood stunned with their mouths hanging open as they stared at Jon who was female from the neck down. Jon in a panic closed the door in their faces. Not giving him any reprieve, the doorbell rang out again.
"Was that the Johnson's?" Jon's mother asked from the kitchen.
"I have to think of something quick!" Jon thought to himself. He slid his manicured hand into the pocket of his denim skirt as the rock was the only way out of this one. "I wish that Karyn's family wasn't coming over to dinner tonight!"
Jon felt the stone get hotter than normal and couldn't pull his hand out of his pocket fast enough to keep from burning his hand. "Ow! That's never happened before."
Wish or no wish, Jon was shocked to hear the doorbell ring again. "Aren't you going to answer the door?" Jon's mom asked as she entered the room. "Sometimes, I think you need to get your head out of the clouds young lady." Jon was powerless as his mom opened the door.
"Hey Mrs. Summers," Karyn said pleasantly as she stood outside the door smiling happily.
"Hello Karyn are your parents coming tonight?"
"No, they couldn't make it, but you know I can never pass up your cooking."
"Why can't you be such a nice girl like your friend Karyn, Jon? Well, dinner is pretty much ready, I just need to finish one last thing."
With that, Jon's mom went back into the kitchen. Jon stood next to the entryway, white as a sheet with the model's body still from the neck down. Karyn glanced at Jon and said, "What in the world did you wish for?"
