Zelda was the next to be picked up, and unsurprisingly by now, she was also older.
Jon sat quietly in the front, trying to think of a way to fix this. Wishes weren't reversible, but he hadn't wished specifically for what had happened. There had to be a loophole. "I wish Karyn was here," he muttered.
He felt the stone, pushed against him in his pocket, grant the wish. Suddenly, he was sitting in the back of the car, not the front. Athena had the front seat. He turned to his left. There was Zelda climbing into the car, and a younger Karyn scooting over to the middle.
He groaned inwardly. He hadn't meant to wish again, but he was glad Karyn was here. Even if it meant he'd just accidentally changed her life. He still needed that loophole. He hadn't closed it with the Karyn wish
He just needed to craft the right wish. "I wish.." he mumbled under his breath so no one could hear the words, "that once Zoe and her friends arrive at the mall..."
