Zoe knew by listening through Jon's door that the effects of the magic dice would last for one day and then after that point everything would return to normal. But Zoe had other plans. She liked this new reality. And she wanted to keep it.
After saying goodbye to her dad, she left the house and walked to school.
About halfway there, she took out the stone and made a wish.
"I wish that the effects of the magic die that was rolled would last forever instead of one day." The stone glowed a bright light in her hand and then stopped. Nothing seemed different. But she thought that's how it should be. Only Zoe, Jon, and Karyn would notice the difference the next morning. And she'd deal with that when the time came.
A few minutes later, she made it to school. Outside, sitting against the school, were Jon and Karyn. They seemed to be looking at everyone else entering the school and talking about them.
Zoe approached them.
