Yates couldn't bear to look at him, "Look at you, man. All it takes is a young lady to have you wrapped around her finger." "You wouldn't understand." Gilbert wasn't upset; instead, he chuckled. "Wait till you've got a girlfriend. Then you'll get it."

Gilbert couldn't resist; he gently squeezed her cheeks, waking Sherilyn up.

"Sure," Sherilyn nodded, "I'm in the mood for steak."
