Chapter 2 - Helen Notices the Second Camera

Water dripped from Helen’s sleeves onto the kitchen floor. Nobody

laughed now. Tyler still held the empty metal container while Melissa

held her phone.

Then Helen saw a second phone leaning against the fruit bowl, its lens

pointed directly at her—not the cake, not Tyler. Her.

“Why are there two cameras?”

Melissa’s face changed. “It’s just another angle.”

Helen asked Tyler who gave him the water. His eyes filled. “Mom did.”

Then came the detail that changed everything. Melissa had told him not

to stop recording no matter what Helen said, and to keep provoking her

if she stayed calm.

The prank had never been about embarrassing Helen. Someone wanted

footage of her losing control.
