âThe big day is just about here, Uncle Guy. Are you ready?â Aiden asked.
âHuh?â Joanna stopped eating her breakfast burrito and swiveled her head between them. âWhatâs going on?â
âIâm talking about him proposing to Mom.â Aiden finished the last of his orange juice, stuffed his burrito wrapper inside the empty bottle and aimed for a trash can ten feet ahead of them.
âBuckets!â he proclaimed.
It sailed in effortlessly. Guy cupped his hands around his mouth and shouted, âOh snap! And the crowd goes wild! Aiden! Aiden!â
âPause on the bromance, please!â Joanna exclaimed, interrupting his chanting. She jumped in front of her brother and uncle, walking backwards. âI still canât believe youâre proposing to Mommy on Valentineâs Day! Itâs just so cliché! This is when everyone expects you to do it. Do not be that dude, Uncle Guy. Iâm begging you.â
âDonât pay her any mind. You got this, champ,â Aiden argued.
Sensing his approval rating taking a skydive with his niece, Guy humored Joanna. âYou got any better ideas, punkinâ? Because the man who makes our meals stares at me daily as if heâs debating whether today is the day he poisons my food or not.â
He wasnât being dramatic either. Every encounter with Raymond, who was the human equivalent of an ingrown toenail in Guyâs opinion, was starting to feel like a high noon scene from a western movie the longer Fern went ringless.
âTomorrow would be a good day to pop that question, just in case you was feeling productive,â the chef had jeered, implying that Guy was anything but.
He had retaliated with, âArenât elders supposed to lead by example? You first, Chef.â
Guy wasnât proud of stooping to his level and dragging Ms. Chandra into anything but damn, he also wasnât expecting to have a knot jerked in his tail this bright and early by that cranky rottweiler. Raymondâs evil sneer had spoken volumes. Luckily, the childrenâs presence had prevented him from cutting up further. For their benefit, the sourpuss had managed to pull his face into aâ¦smile? Guy wasnât sure he was using the proper description for what Raymondâs face did when he fixed it like that. Aiden shot him a âsucks to be youâ look.
âItâs cool. Mr. Rayâs bark is actually worse than his bite,â he downplayed for his uncleâs benefit.
âForgive me if call horse pucky on that one, Aiden,â Guy retorted affectionately. âIâm all ears here, JoJo.â
âGlad weâre off your thing.â She spun back around, leading the way, waving her burrito like a baton. âOkay, dream with me here, please. Iâm thinking fireworks, skywriting, a marching band, step show, peacocks, a unicorn driven carriage down Main Street, and finally, a ginormous glitter-filled balloon drops on Town Square when Mommy says yes! Or, you wait until late spring and hire some mer-people to perform a synchronized swimming routine in Cinnamon Farms pond. You should dress up as Jack Sparrowââ
âAaand youâre done,â Guy interrupted, laughing.
He tugged on one of her curls. She exploded into a fit of giggles and batted his hand away.
