Chapter 132

Barrett

"You don't need my permission, Barrett."

I remember saying something similar to my mom when she questioned me about dating Gabby. It was something along the lines of I didn’t need her permission to date an older woman. Now that I want to ask Gabby to marry me, I've decided to ask my mom what she thinks. "I know I don't need your permission, but now that you've gotten to know her a little better, do you understand why I love her so much?"

"Yeah." She smiles softly. "I do. And I know that I questioned you before about what you saw in her. I get it now. She loves you, she cares about the people in your life, and she's very talented at what she does. I've never tasted food like what she makes, and you know I've always been a fan of Kara, but there's something special that goes into what Gabby's doing."
