章 1762: Open to the possibilities (3)

Gabriel found Ben and Steve still talking in the living room. He glanced around and didn't see Becca. Gabriel assumed that Becca saw that Ben is busy with Steve and she took Oliver to the kids' room.

Steve and Ben finished their chat and Gabriel asked Ben if they can talk in private.

"Ben… can I ask you something?", Gabriel spoke when they stepped into the hallway.

"Go ahead."

Gabriel licked his lips nervously. "Do you mind if I ask Becca out?"

Ben paused. "Out? Where?"

"On a date.", Gabriel clarified.

Ben was sure that his ears malfunctioned. "You want to ask MY Becca on a date?"

Gabriel nodded.

Ben narrowed his eyes at Gabriel. "How old are you?"

"Twenty-seven."

Ben inhaled sharply. "She is eighteen."

"I know."
