It was Saturday, the day of my step fathers birthday party.
My mom went big with it of course, when doesn't she do something big. She's Cadenza Rachele Reign-Douglas, (Douglas is my step fathers last name), the top party planner/ house decor designer/ fashion designer in 5 out of the 7 continents. She does a lot of things, but she worked for everything she has. Even being formerly married to my father for 33 years, and him formerly owning Reign inc, you would think she used his connections to get where she is today.
But she wouldn't allow it, her parents were very poor in Sicily, but they worked for everything they had. Even when they were struggling they made sure to keep their kids happy, and showed them to work hard.
Why she kept my fathers last name you may ask, well that's the name of all her businesses , C.R.Reign.
I have an amazing relationship with all of my parents, step and biological. Well except with my dads wife, she's a bitch. She's the reason my parents got divorced, it took me a long time to forgive my father for cheating on my mother, I still haven't fully forgave him.
But I'm happy Jonah came into her life because she used to be very sad after the divorce, and not up to doing anything. But she would still get up everyday for her family, I really saw the change in her once she met him.

Anyways, I'm trying to get everyone ready
"Dad how bout if nonna beats my ass?" Jaheim asked me "I told you to call her, and you didn't. So if she beats you with that wooden rolling pin she uses to make the Pansotti alla genovese then you're on your own son" I told him as I gave him a pat on the back
Did I also mention that my mom forced me to invite Saria, not really forced but it was her idea, no no.....she actually forced me.
-FLASHBACK- 2 weeks ago
I pulled up to my moms house , she asked me... no told me to come over. She needed help with something having to do with her design company.
I got out the car and walk up to her house, but I was stopped by someone yelling my whole government name
"GRANT GIOVANNI REIGN" I turn around and see my mom waving her hands in the air...
I shake my head and walk up to her front door and she embraces me in a big hug "Oh amore mio, mi sei mancato" she said then kissed my cheeks translation: Oh my love, I missed you
Then she smacked my arm "Oww, what was that for?" I asked while rubbing my arm "It's for being late and never calling me" her thick Italian accent always flowed out when she spoke English
