The bidding has been as shown. It is your bid. What do you say? As you have figured out by now, using Michaels Cue-Bids / Unusual Notrump is sometimes hard to tie down. Here you have 13/14 points and if you figure partner for 9 that won't be enough for game. But, those two Minor Aces are worth a lot when you figure partner has only 3 Minor suit cards. So let's say you decide to just invite with 3♠. Partner takes you to game. You will surely make this game if trumps split 2-2. If they don't then you will have to hope for a defensive mistake.
