Kevin nodded, "I've been hitting the gym for years, so I get it... but Director Bishop isn't overweight. A bit of exercise is fine, no need to diet."
Marilyn blushed, "I'm not on a diet..."
"Right, you're not."
Pfft.
Stephanie nearly burst into laughter.
Kevin sure had a bit of a dark horse vibe about him.
Marilyn was also looking a bit embarrassed.
Before the food arrived, Kevin, aiming to cut through the awkwardness, started talking shop.
That got Marilyn chatting more too.
The two of them bantered back and forth, creating a pretty good vibe.
Stephanie sat politely, sipping her juice.
Every so often, she'd text updates to her mom's Silver Fox...
Sebastian was having lunch himself, a small smile curling his lips with each text from the little rascal.
The lunch hour flew by in this way.
At the restaurant, Marilyn and Kevin were deep in conversation.
Stephanie, on the other hand, was quietly enjoying her delicious meal and the scene unfolding before her.
She thought to herself, with Kevin's gift of the gab, he'd be perfect at her mom's side – just someone to talk to, and that's enough to make daily life pretty good.
Their kids were grown, no more worries there.
