Cyrus's POV
The whole Good Hair Family is together once again for a meal, this time at Buffy's house for lunch. Her kitchen table is the longest, of everyone's, but we still need to set up two more collapsable plastic tables to fit everyone in, as always. Good thing our family isn't getting any bigger, because otherwise we'd need another table added on.
"Uncle TJ," Andreas says through a half-full mouth, "the pasta salad is really good."
"Thanks," TJ responds with a pleased smile.
He'd been wanting to try that recipe for weeks, but it called for sun-dried tomatoes, which we kept forgetting to buy.
"Yeah, it is," Jayda agrees.
"I'm glad you think so," I say, "because we have enough extra at home to last us the next four dinners."
TJ and I laugh a little as Jayda glares at Andreas, grumbling, "Why'd you have to bring it up?"
We may have gotten the measurements wrong when cooking and accidentally made seven times the amount the book called for, but I suppose you can never have enough vegan pasta salad.
"I have cookies for desert," Amber mentions.
That is immediately met with a lot of uncomfortable looks as everyone finds a reason why they can't eat them.
"I'm not really hungry for dessert," Brayden says.
"I'm cutting back on sugar," Jayda chimes in.
"I want cookies," Wyatt says.
TJ leans over to him to say, "Trust me. You don't."
Amber rolls her eyes, saying, "Relax. I bought them," and all three tables sigh in relief.
"Andi," I say, changing the topic to something I'm more curious about, "How was that sculpture you were working on for that big hotel company?"
"Fantastic," my friend replies eagerly. "They ended up paying me enough to pay for most of Hazel's college tuition."
Wow. It must be really nice to have a kid who she really trusts will be going to college.
"That's awesome!" Walker says to Andi.
"Yeah. My art's been doing pretty well lately. I have a ton of people wanting sculptures."
Beside Andi, Amber suddenly stands up, looking a little unsettled, and saying, "I'm gonna get more water." She grabs her glass before hurrying away from the table.
While she's gone, her daughter returns from the bathroom and plops down in the seat next to Brayden's.
"What's with the stuffed basketball in the bathroom?" Hazel questions.
"That's mine!" Cara shouts. "You didn't pee on it, did you?"
Hazel is taken aback, saying, "Ew, no. How would that even happen?"
"Ask Wyatt," Cara mumbles, and all eyes go to my son.
"I think it's offensive that you think my aim isn't flawless," Wyatt responds before chomping down on one of Buffy's tuna sandwiches.
"Then what was on my pillow?"
"That was milk," Wyatt answers, which only creates more questions.
"Why did you have milk in the washroom?" Brayden asks.
"Okay, we're eating," Andi interrupts, ending that conversation.
"I'll back up a bit to the basketball thing," TJ says. "Cara, when did you start liking basketball?"
