It was Jenna!
Sherilyn broke out in a cold sweat, abruptly pushing Gilbert away, glaring at him with resentment for the mess he'd made!
Gilbert gave a dry, awkward chuckle, insisting it wasn't intentional.
Both turned to look at Jenna.
"Jenna."
"Jenna..."
"Yikes!"
Jenna raised her hands to cover her eyes, grinning widely, "Jenna's just a kid, and kids shouldn't see kissing!"
While saying so, she peeked through her fingers.
"Jenna, don't be naughty." Sophia tried to hold back her laughter as she reached for Jenna's hand, "Mommy and Uncle will be embarrassed!"
Sherilyn bit her lip, her face pale, frowning as she glared at Gilbert, "Aren't you leaving?"
"Uh, yeah, leaving." Gilbert, afraid of her anger, nodded quickly.
"Uncle, hug!"
Just as he was about to leave, Jenna stretched her arms out to him.
This… Gilbert hesitated, could he hug her?
"Uncle!" Jenna pouted, "I want a hug!"
"Alright." Gilbert no longer hesitated, unable to refuse his daughter. He extended his arms and lifted Jenna up.
He looked at Sherilyn, trying to appease her, "I'll drop you and Jenna off and then leave."
Sherilyn looked at the two, one big and one small. How could she say no? Jenna wouldn't let go of him.
"Uncle, mommy said yes."
Jenna, happy, leaned on Gilbert's shoulder, whispering 'secrets' to him.
Although it was a 'secret', the little one still lowered her voice, but others could hear her clearly.
"Uncle and mommy, are you going to get married?"
