Artie swept the house while I tutored Sil, Kiki, and Koga. Today, Kuma couldn't make it as he had a sporting event to attend, while Alli was helping Mrs. Daikiri come up with new ideas for their baking business.

"You're not wrong, but it's negative two," I said, snickering.
He gasped. "Negative?"
"Yeah. It's like debt."
He frowned. "Like what Mommy owe the evil lady?"
Kiki blinked. "Evil lady?"
