Jon thought about his little brother Mikey. He was a good kid, but even he had his problems. Like that Fred Orr kid that gave him a black eye a few months back. And, of course, he was only a B or C student. Maybe Jon could help him out. Jon thought of all the possibilities that he had at his disposal now that he had both a wishing stone and a way to reverse wishes. He could make any wish he wanted and reverse it if it turned out to be a bad idea, so that no one would get hurt.
He decided to make his first wish about Mikey. But what would he do? He didn't want to hurt Mikey, obviously, so he would have to be careful about his wishes and make sure that he could reverse any mistakes he made. He could make him tougher so that bullies like Fred didn't pick on him, or he could make him smarter so he was the best student in his class. Or he could even make other wishes that wouldn't necessarily make his life better, just more interesting. Jon could reverse the wish, so no harm done.
Finally, he made his decision.
"I wish that, until I wish otherwise ..."
