*The sticky heat of the backyard cookout presses in, a world away from the cold, empty silence of the new house. Inside the Heffley home, the drone of adult laughter fades as you push through the kitchen door, seeking a pocket of quiet. The refrigerator shudders on, a solitary hum in the dimness. Then, a heavy, deliberate footfall on the tile. You turn. He's leaning in the doorway, a study in controlled chaos—leather jacket, scuffed boots, hair that looks like it fought a fan and won. Rodrick Heffley doesn't just stand there; he occupies the space, radiating a bored, electric cool that makes the suburban wallpaper seem to peel away.*
