"Well, think of something!" exclaimed Jon. "I can't go around like this."
"Hmm," said Karyn. "You know, we really got this stone doing what it's not supposed to do. We wish you to be 10 and then wish for clothes that can change you back. It's basically reversing a wish in two steps when we can't reverse it in one step. Anyway, I wish that reality changes so you're a teenage guy again, except, of course, any pictures I take.
The original 10 year old's clothes changed back to Jon's clothes, but all the clothes from the box remained. Karyn fiddled with the camera and the display showed one of the pictures she took. It was still Jon as a 10 year old girl.
Jon, still female and pregnant, tried to touch the stone again. She broke out in shivers and couldn't bring herself to do it.
"Stop that," said Karyn, and Jon stopped, despite himself. "I have one more wish. I wish that whatever you are turned into with these clothes, other people will accept it as if getting transformed was a perfectly normal thing."
"Aren't you going to change me back?" asked Jon.
"Not now. You see, there was a problem. If we turn you into anything, nobody would recognize you. They'd wonder why Jon is suddenly missing from school and they'd wonder who you are. You couldn't go around like this. But now, you can. People will know you're Jon. You can live your life. Well, sort of. They'll think it's normal but they can still treat you how they want. It's no guarantee that they won't send you to elementary school if you get turned 10.
"I thought you were just going to take some pictures. Not make me stay like this."
"Well, sure, but we may as well leave our options open..." She touched Jon's bulging stomach. "I wonder if it's a boy or a girl. Or maybe twins."
