Karisma loved Jon with all her heart, but she always felt a little regretful about the fact that he was white ... and still a teenager. If only he was black and older like her. Maybe things would be a little more ... normal.
So, without much thought, Karisma said "I wish Jon was a black man and we loved each other as much as we do now," not realizing that one of the words in her wish would be substituted for another. And since Jon wasn't there to hear the wish, whatever the outcome of the wish was, he would think that it was normal to be that way.
