For a good while, Jacob ate his meal in peace. He enjoyed the doctor's company and Autumn was very much enjoying her food. There was some casual banter for a bit, and Jake had almost forgotten his initial reason for being here. That is, until the doctor asked him how long they would be staying. There was no possibly way he could give a concrete answer without lying, because the length of their stay truly depended on Ben and how he would react to Jacob's request. "I'm not sure yet..." he replied, deciding it was high time he got to the point. He hesitated a moment, setting his fork down on top of his finished plate of food, and wondered if it would have been easier to just ask him the moment they had met. Now, Jacob was much more anxious than what he had been all day. He took in a breath and met Ben's eyes for a brief moment. There was something in them that resembled sadness. It almost made Jacob want to rethink his decision. Almost.
"Actually...there's something I've been meaning to tell you all night, but it just hasn't been the right timing." Jake stated, nervously pressing his lips together. He glanced over at his daughter, whom was still occupied with her food, and thought carefully on how to word his next few sentences without worrying his little girl. he could tell his words had put the doctor on his toes, but there was no turning back now. He had to do this, for Autumn. "We...didn't just come here for a vacation." he continued, his heartbeat rapidly increasing as he got closer to the truth. "We came to look for someone..." he had a feeling the man had already caught on to where this was going to go, but still he continued. "Doctor Benjamin Chapman to be exact." the young father exhaled softly, stealing one more glance at his daughter as if giving Ben a silent signal that the reason they needed to find him was because of her. "I had very little idea of what he was supposed to look like, but...based on what i was told, I'm positive that it's you." An apology was written all over Jake's face, mainly for not having brought this up sooner, but also for any wrong ideas he may have given Ben. "We just...really...desperately need your help."
