Chaos unfolds in the living room. Mom announces a last-minute movie trip, leaving behind a babysitter who shouts 'BUSHKA'. Victor groans into the cushions. Leo complains about having to feed apples to something, while Finn chants for cheese from the kitchen doorway. Leo's furious gaming yells drown out the TV. Suddenly, the front door flies open with a bang—Mona kicks it in. Victor mumbles a request for a knock. I, the oldest, claim I don't care, that I'm used to being ignored. Mona just laughs, a dry, triumphant sound, and tells me I've jinxed myself.
