Chapter 10

Inside Puppy Co.

“Wake up, little halflings!”

The next thing I knew, I was in my own bed and Wizzie the alarm clock was waking me up. I opened my eyes and saw Dad leaning over me.

“Hey, Tim. Wake up, buddy!”

I rubbed my eyes. “Is something wrong? Am I fired?”

I could see Mom behind Dad, and they were both smiling.

“No!” Dad replied. “You’re late for work!”

I was confused. “What?”

“It’s Take Your Kid to Work Day! And you’re the kid,” Dad explained.

“You’re officially ungrounded,” Mom added.

I sat up. “Really?”

“Really,” Dad said.

“Can the baby come too?” I asked.

Mom nodded. “I don’t see why not.”

I leaped out of bed. “Yes! Yes! Yes!”

“I wish I was that excited for work,” Dad remarked.

Mom and Dad left me to get dressed. I couldn’t believe it! Our plan had worked! I put on my clothes and rushed to tell Boss Baby. He was pretty happy. I helped him get dressed, and he stashed a bottle of his super secret baby formula in my backpack. Then we both put on sunglasses and looked in the mirror—we looked pretty cool, just perfect for our top-secret mission.

After breakfast, Mom and Dad packed us into the minivan and drove to Puppy Co. It wasn’t my first time there. I recognized the main building, which was shaped like a giant barn. Behind it, a bunch of tall buildings stretched into the sky.

“Welcome to Puppy Co., gentlemen!” Dad announced as we pulled up.

The place was pretty crowded with Puppy Co. workers and their kids. The outside courtyard was filled with all kinds of kid-friendly activities. There was a ride with puppy-shaped cars that looped around and around on a track. There were carnival games where you could win a puppy plushy. Instead of a ball pen filled with colorful balls, there was an inflatable pool filled with stuffed puppies.

“Wow, this is awesome,” I said as I pushed Boss Baby in his stroller through the courtyard.

Dad pointed toward a guy walking around in a puppy suit. The suit looked strange, and the guy inside it was laughing in a weird way.

“Hey, you want to get a picture with Puppy Co. Pete?” Dad asked.

“No, thanks,” I said quickly. “It’s probably too scary for the baby.”

“Nice call,” Boss Baby whispered to me.

Mom leaned over to me. “So, Tim, your Dad and I have some work to do. You want to come up to the office and hang out with us?”

“We’ll stick your brother in the Puppy Zone while we have a little Tim time,” Dad said. He nodded toward the entrance to the big room where all the little kids stayed for the day. The entrance looked like the face of a big, happy puppy.

“Look, Dad and I know we haven’t been able to do as much with you as we used to,” Mom said.

It was just what I wanted! It was so tempting, but I had to keep my sights on my goal: getting Boss Baby out of my life forever.

“No thanks,” I said, trying to sound sincere.
