The next day I met Karyn early and we walked to the wall where she had made her dumb wish. She wore the same green sweater as yesterday and I felt a bit disappointed I couldn't see more of the wishes effect. Her hair was a mess. Karyn saw me looking, "I'm not spending hours brushing it if we are going to get rid of it today" she snapped, "sorry I'm tired, you try sleeping with these things" she said gesturing to the bulge under her baggy top. I felt aroused thinking about it, but quickly thought of something else. "Yeah I have an idea about that" I replied.
"so what is it" Karyn asked a desperate look of hope in her eyes, "Well" I said, "We cannot change wishes, but maybe we can move them, I wish that the wish you made yesterday had not been made yet and would be made now by someone else" I smiled, not realising until too late that I had not brought the box to school today and was just fidgety fingering the stone. It shone, "oops" I said. Karyn was panicking, "What have you done Jon" she screamed.
It was done, Karyn was stood jiggling her boobs in her hands, her short red hair had returned, "This is great, I don't even feel tired" she beamed. Just then Sarah McMillan, head cheerleader Wandered across the yard followed by her usual entourage of drooling, overmuscled football players and other assorted testosterone-fueled flunkies.
Karyn was unimpressed. "Can you explain to me why men are so shallow? Everyone knows that McMillan is a total bitch and yet, because she has blond hair and big tits, every guy in the school spends half his life dribbling down her cleavage." Then clasped her mouth shut as deja vu set in, the panic of making a dumb wish evident her hands remained where they were.
"believe me she is more then that, like I said on the phone last night, she is really smart and knows a lot about history, it makes me so mad, I wish I was her, messing about in class and spending all my time on looking good and wanting attention" I said in frustration as Karyn nodded along, but then her eyes went wide.
I think it dawned on us both at the same time what she had said and we just looked at each other, a look of slight shock on our faces, but it was much too late by then. I found I had to close my eyes, as the stone felt hot and then I couldn't feel it at all.
