Knowing he wouldn’t get an answer from Beck, Miles chuckled and crouched down to ask Shanice, “Shanice, how many times have you seen the lady who had lunch with you today? Do you know her name?

Miles continued, “And what’s her name?”

When Beck and Celeste met earlier that day, he didn’t even address her as “Ms. Rodriguez.” So Shanice, unable to recall her name, turned to Beck for help.

“Uncle Beck, what’s her name?”

Beck lowered his gaze. “Next time you see her, you can ask her yourself.”

Shanice beamed. “Okay!”
