I knew this was going to get out of hand, but there was no stopping it now. Mom grabbed Sydney’s hand and said, “We can let the men clean up this mess while we talk.”
Sydney was almost out the door, when I asked, “What about the partnership?”
Mom answered. “The China is gone. You boys don’t need our supervision any longer.” Then she closed the door behind them.
I turned to the others and said, “How did we get stuck with all the dishes?”
Dad said, “Wait a few years and you’ll have that answer yourself. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to watch the football game.”
Chris said, “Hey, I thought you were helping.”
Dad laughed. “I am. I’m helping myself to a piece of cheesecake and the recliner.” He grabbed the entire cheesecake out of the fridge and left us standing there.
“Well, this sucks. You get the girl, Dad gets the cheesecake, and I get the dishes” Chris said. “But really, I’m happy for you, Cameron.”
“Thanks.”
I found something that I was never going to stop fighting for. Making Sydney the happiest woman alive. It was just going to need to start after this huge mound of dishes.
The End
