The next morning I find Sofia taking up my usual spot, baking something in the oven. From the smell of thing she doesn't have a lot of experience in the kitchen.
"Sofia, I didn't hear you come in. If you're looking for mew I think he already left for work...."
"Actually I am here for the twins. I hope you like goat cheese because I'm making everyone breakfast quiches with cauliflower crusts"
"....yummy...."Mason and Mickey trundle into the kitchen behind me, still half asleep.
"What's that smel?"
"I think it's coming from Sofia"
"Good morning boys, I'm making you breakfast and taking you two out for some step-mother and sons bonding time today. Let's go after having a nutritious homemade breakfast" I decide not to mention the cardbox for frozen breakfast quiches stuffed in the trash can.
"And don't think I forget about you, Gulf. You get to spend the day helping Tay plan the engagement party"
(Engagement? What engagement? Whose Engagement? Why did I not know about) but I don't asked any further questions as Mason started speaking "Is that the thing dad was telling us about the other night?"
"Yeah...Aunt Sofia won't be just our Aunt anymore" Mickey said in a sad tone.
"That's exactly right, boys. Your dad and I are going to make our official to the world as an engaged couple....and Gulf we need you to make sure everything is just perfect for the party"
"Let me think about it.... technically, mew's the one who's my boss, so I just want to be sure...."
"I love that you're such a hard worker. And yes, mew is totally okay with that"
"Well, okay.....if he approved it and you're taking kids anyway....." The oven dings and Sofia hurries to take out the quiches. She ignores me and smiles at the twins.
"Let's dig in, then get dressed for the best day ever!"
"Yay" After forcing down two spoon of quiches and excuse myself, I take the subway to Dalton Enterprise to meet Tay mew assistance. I don't want to involved in about I don't have any choice as it is my job.
"Gulf. It's delightful to see you again"
"Hey, Tay it's good to see you too...but I don't want to spend more time thinking about this engagement party than I have to"
"Tell me about it. But at least I have company this time. I usually have to so all the planning by myself, which leave me drawing in Carter's and decorations....but now we can drown together"
"You're really not saying to sell this, huh?"
"Come on, gulf. I thought we could be honest  with each other let's get our hand dirty" Tay leads me into his office and two of us started to work.
"Here are Sofia's list for us...." That's not bad only one list wait what another long list oh my God don't tell me a whole box of list. You've got to kidding me I mumbled myself.
"Please tell me this is some kind of sick jokes"
"Even I'm not this funny. I don't know why she bother asking for help if she's going to micromanage like this"
" 'Entree suggestion......' 'Decoration do's and don't's....' 'party game that highlight not only Russo and Dalton as companies but also as a couple' Damm....this is intense. On the bright side, this should make our work easier, huh?"
"If you think that, then you really don't know Sofia. Ready to work through the appetizer?" Tay passes me yet another list.
"It's all deconstructed fancy stuff.... aren't there going to kids at this thing?"
"Kids never been Sofia's strength"
"Well!, I say we try the spinach-stuffed olives then"
"Yeah, at least she will be happy"
"And that's what this party all about begin Sofia happy!!! Appetizer check. What's next?" A few hours later, Tay hangs up the phone after bargaining with an antique dealer over the chandelier Sofia apparently has to have at the party.
"I think that's actually everything.wanna have some  Drinks?" I grind as Tay moves to the cart in the corner of his office, casually pouring two glasses.
"I have to say, I'm pretty impressed by the way you tackled everything. When we first met. I figured you were...."
"Just a party person? Right"
"Can you blame me?"
"I know mew introduce me as his assistant but my actual title is Deputy Chief Operating Office it's little more complicated than taking message and scheduling meetings. There are days mew and I don't even see each other.... Or our father for that matter"
"Our father?  I thought you were just unofficial siblings"
"I lived with Dalton's throughout middle and high school. They practically adopted me, all that was missing was the paperwork" Tay seems suddenly preoccupied with his drink, trying to act a little too casual.
"Mew always had everything handed to him growing up, no questions asked. The important job, the little kids, the fancy fiancee.....but me? I've had to work for everything and it's still not enough. I'm right behind him though. It's a close call which one of us will win in the end"
"Do I sense a little siblings rivalry here?"
"Of course not. I wouldn't be here at all if it weren't for mew. I'm sure he is going to be CEO after dad and he's is going to marry Sofia. It's practically a done deal. I'm just next in line in case, he totally fucked it up"
"Really....I don't know that...."
"Yeah, it's just too bad mew and Sofia....never mind"
(What? He can't just leave me hanging like that. I bet I can get Tay to give me the deets on this so called engagement) but at last moment, I lose my nerves and ask about the first thing that pop into my head.
"Uh, are you sure this RSVP is accurate?"
"You want to ask me about the invitation right now? That's adorable and yes it's accurate"
"Good to know" Tay gives me a funny looks, but thankfully he seems to let it go.
"Did I ever tell you about the time Sofia tried to order a pizza over the phone? It was hilarious. She called Carter to deliver pizza instead of delivery man" I giggled but accidentally dribbling some of my drinks onto my shirt.
"Crap!!"
"Here, let me help you" Tay springs up and grabs a handful of napkins.
"I know how this sound but the stain is less likely to see if you take your shirt off"
"Yeah....I think so too" I quickly whip off my shirt and start to dab at the stain. Tay leans over to help.
"I can't believe that worked"
"A-hem" I gasp as mew step into the office, staring down his brother and conspicuously not looking at my name uperr body.
"I hope I'm not interrupting anything"
"Mew!!!"
