"Wow, I don't know what to say," Claire said. She took a deep breath. "I mean, yes, absolutely. Yes."
"Great," Eva said, smiling widely.
Claire laughed happily.
Michael clapped. "This is going to be amazing."
Eva was beaming.
"Can I have my latte now?" Claire asked.
"Sure thing, darling," Eva said, giving her a quick kiss.
Eva made the latte for her and handed it over.
"Thanks," Claire said. She took a sip.
"How's the chai?" Michael asked.
"It's perfect," Claire told him.
"That's good," he replied.
Eva pulled up the calender on her phone, her mind spinning. "How about two weeks from now? Give me time to do some advertising. It'll be a Saturday evening, we'll offer small finger foods, tea, water, coffee, and hot chocolate. Michael, your quiches, they'll be great as minis." She looked up at Claire. "Is that enough time for you? I probably should check with you to make sure that you have pieces ready before we get too far into planning this thing."
Claire smiled at her. "Two weeks is fine."
"Perfect. I'll make sure the cafe is stocked," Michael said, getting excited.
"I can't wait," Claire said, looking at them both. "This is amazing, really. Both of you. Thank you."
"We're happy to do this," Eva assured her.
"Well, I'd better get back to the studio," Claire said. "I've got a new painting in progress and I can't wait to see where it goes."
"Okay. Enjoy yourself," Eva told her.
"I will. You too," Claire said, giving her a hug.
"See you later," Eva said, watching her leave.
"She's so cute," Michael commented.
Eva nodded.
"I think we need music," he said, turning on the speakers.
"I can't stop thinking about her," Eva said, leaning on the counter.
"I'm so happy for you," Michael said, patting her back.
Eva sighed.
"You guys are really cute together," he added.
"Thanks," she mumbled, feeling like a lovesick teenager. "I need to get back to work doing something here, not spending all my time thinking about her."
Michael chuckled. "You really are adorable with her though. Honestly. Even early days with Liz, you weren't as happy as I see you here with Claire. You two just seem really good for each other. I'm jealous. Very jealous. But also incredibly happy for you both."
