“Oh, do you think I could get to first base with her?” Carlos looked where my gaze had landed, chuckled, and said, “Uh, huh.” He quickly glanced back down at his phone and typed a message.
The girl’s phone pinged. She read the text, and a big smile crossed her face. Then, she started walking towards them.
“Who could resist the perfect date?” she said, looking sweetly. I’m always up for a candlelight dinner, romantic music, and good company. And I like a man who can kiss well.”
“Wait… what?”
“Carlos said you wanted to meet me. Hi, I’m Gaby.”

Haha! That’s one great wingman! I think my son needs to find a wingman and a date!!
