Beck remained silent, which made Miles assume he didn’t want to say anything because it wasn’t serious yet. Knowing he wouldn’t get an answer from Beck, Miles chuckled and crouched down to ask Shanice, “Shanice, how many times have you seen the lady who had lunch with you today? Do you know her name?

Beck’s grip on his glass tightened instantly, “Miles!”

Shanice didn’t understand the adults‘ intentions. She wasn’t very familiar with Miles, but since he was asking about Celeste, she thought about it seriously and answered without hesitation, “Three times!”

Miles continued, “And what’s her name?”

When Beck and Celeste met earlier that day, he didn’t even address her as “Ms. Rodriguez.” So Shanice, unable to recall her name, turned to Beck for help.

“Uncle Beck, what’s her name?”

Beck lowered his gaze. “Next time you see her, you can ask her yourself.”

Shanice beamed. “Okay!”

Miles muttered under his breath, “So stingy.”
