“You found the mayo?!” Roman chirped as Emmett and I entered the kitchen.
“Yes.”
“Where?”
“Your mother swapped it out for her lotion.”
I gave my brother a look and he gave me a little pat on top of my head. Aiden's brow arched.
“Really Em?”
“You swapped the mayo with your lotion?” Nia questioned.
“It happens to the best of us” I managed a smile and kissed the top of Roman's head. “Has the timer gone off?”
“Yes,” Dove replied. “Just now. I was about to check.”
“I'll do it” I smiled at her.
I could feel Aiden's eyes on me the whole time. I opened the oven, brought out the ready ones, and put the others back in.
“Oh wow, it smells good!” Iris smiled.
Nia beamed with pride.
“Thank you.”
Aubree chuckled.
“I doubt it'll taste just like Memaw's.”
“Maybe but I bet she'll still be proud of us” Emmett wrapped his arms around Nia.
“Whatever you say” Aubree chuckled again.
“Brie? Plastic knives please” Zach asked.
I nodded and turned to the drawer that held all the plastics.
“Here you go” I passed him the knives.
“Oh, can I get a sheet or something?” Dove asked.
“Yeah, sure.”
“Brie? Is it okay if I make some icing? The oatmeal cookies look a little—”
“Go for it Ris” I smiled at her.
“Mommy?” Roman called. “You left the oven open.”
The kitchen grew silent.
“What?” I asked.
“You left the oven open” Roman repeated.
I followed his gaze to the oven and it was open.
What the hell?!
I frowned.
“I could have sworn I didn't” I muttered and moved to push the oven door shut again. “There.”
The instant I take my hand away, it screeches open once more.
“No. Don't mess with me oven door. Not today...”
“Breanna?”
“Not right now” I kept muttering angrily.
