"Maybe you shouldn't wish to fix this if that doesn't work...but wish for some way to find out what's going on...or how you can stop it?"
"It can't hurt...but it'll have to wait. I hid the rock...I figured it is safer not carrying it around...especially now."
They continued their walk toward school. Unfortunately, they didn't share any classes, so he had to head off in a different direction.
He passed by Zoe, who was surrounded by two other girls. He didn't know who they were, but she looked like she was having a good time with them.
As he was about to enter his first class, he spotted 'Julie' Meshida standing outside the classroom, looking at something on her phone. She was dressed nicely, but not exactly the short skirts and tight clothes he might have seen on the girl who lived where she did two days earlier. He paused, and watched her for a moment before she noticed him. "Is something wrong?" She asked, in perfect unaccented English. Yuki usually stumbled with her English, not being a native speaker, especially when the teacher called on her.
"No...just...I mean..." he tried to recover.
She gave a short laugh. "Not sure what's up...but when you're ready to tell me..." she said, heading inside and sliding into one of the seats. Julie wondered why Jon was acting all flustered and watching her. She had plenty of people act weird around her because her parents were so well known, but Jon wasn't one of them. She wondered if he was trying to ask her out or something. He was kind of cute, but even though they'd been in classes together and said hi to each other, she didn't really know him that well. Maybe, if he asked, she'd give him a chance.
