"It's Mikey's teacher Ms. Warren," Jon said, sounding astonished.
"What about her?"
"She's in love with ... Mikey."
"Mikey? Your brother Mikey? That's ... that's sick. She's like almost three times his age. Plus he's one of her students."
"Yeah, I know."
"We should do something," Karyn said. "Maybe call the cops on her?"
"Why? She hasn't done anything. It's not a crime to love someone."
"Yeah, but ... she could do something, down the road. Maybe we could stop something really bad from happening," Karyn said. Then her eyes lowered towards the stone in Jon's hand. "Maybe you could use the stone, to make her not love Mikey."
"I suppose. But what exactly would I say?" Jon asked.
