“Who-?” The man spun around, his eyes wide with surprise as they landed on Gilbert. “You….what?”

“What do you mean, what?”

Gilbert glared at the man, his expression a mix of disdain and anger, then turned to Sherilyn, “You’re actually considering going out for coffee with this guy? A stutterer!”

Sherilyn just stared, speechless.

“Uh, sure!”

The man, seemingly flattered yet startled, made a hasty retreat.
