My Roommate Cursed My Whole Family, and I Said Of Course

At a class reunion, Jesmira Zamora invites her roommate Jenna to play the "Of course" game, then calmly predicts that Jenna's father will go bankrupt, her mother will jump from a building, her sister will slit her wrists, and Jenna herself will be expelled and fall ill. Jenna answers "Of course" while her classmates laugh. Three months later, every prediction comes true, and Jesmira pushes Jenna into traffic.

Jenna opens her eyes again on the day of the reunion. This time she accepts the game, then challenges Jesmira to play it both ways, three sentences each. When Jesmira repeats her curses, Jenna makes her swear that everything will rebound onto herself. Jesmira's face drains of color, and Jenna's suspicion hardens.

At home, Jenna urges her father to cut all cooperation with Mr. Zellner, the man who began her family's ruin, and hands him evidence gathered from the Department of Commerce and the Tax Office. Her father, shaken that she knows of a deal he told no one about, orders a full background check and puts the contract on hold.
