Chapter Seventeen - Valuable Lesson

Dave woke up at seven-thirty without his alarm on Saturday morning.  He 
immediately noticed that both Roxanne and Sarah were gone but their aromas were 
still in his bedding.  He had three hours before his tee time so he showered 
before he went looking for Sarah.  

He found her in her room just getting ready to go downstairs.  He walked through 
the open door and first took Roxanne and then Sarah into his arms and kissed 
each tenderly.  He explained, "Last night was spectacular.  If you two ever see 
two lost school girls again, please send them to my room."

Both smiled at him before Sarah asked, "Do you mind if we go watch you golf 
today?  Harry, the pro at Blackheath, said spectators are welcome."

Dave hugged her and replied, "I'd love to see you there; but you have to promise 
me that you won't talk to me or motion to me while I'm playing any hole.  I will 
come see you some when I'm between holes but for the most part I have to stay 
focused, okay?"

Both nodded agreement and they all walked to the informal dining room.  Sarah 
was dressed in an off-white pair of dress shorts and beige blouse while Roxanne 
was still wearing her uniform.  Dave looked at her questioningly and she relied, 
"Don't worry, I will change before we leave, it's just that Lord Thurlow 
requires that I wear my uniform while inside the residence."

Dave nodded and continued to the dining room.  He ate a large breakfast before 
asking Raymond for a drive to the course.  Sarah said she and Roxanne would see 
him later.

Dave practiced for several hours before his tee time; he spent half the time 
hitting balls and the other half putting.  As his tee time neared he got more 
and more focused on his round.  When he was finally called to the tee he was 
ready.

Dave was surprised at the number of spectators watching - he had thought this 
was just a small local tournament but, as he played and spoke with his playing 
partners, he found out this tournament was one of the top three junior events in 
all of Britain.  He was playing with a young Scotsman who was one of the top 
four in all of Scotland and the third player was the top ranked junior in Wales.  
They were playing in threesomes as is common in tournaments.  Dave knew this was 
to increase the speed of play which tends to be slower because of the more 
deliberate style golfers normally use in tournaments. 

Dave found both competitors very friendly, polite and, more importantly, both 
were very strong golfers.  Dave hit the ball really well and actually enjoyed 
having Sarah and Roxanne following him.  He shot a great round of sixty-five and 
beat both his playing partners by at least three strokes.

Sarah had done as he wished and not disturbed him.  He found two occasions, when 
he was moving from a green to the next tee, where he walked beside Sarah and 
Roxanne and talked to them casually.  After he finished signing his card, he and 
his two ladies walked to the leader-board to see where he stood.  He was pleased 
to find out he had the second best round of the day tied, at one-off-the-pace, 
with James Bravant who Dave had played with the previous day.  Someone told him 
the leader, Tim O'Reilly, who shot sixty-four, was from Ireland.

After reading the board, Dave asked if the girls were ready to go home.  He 
didn't want to stay and just watch the leader-board.  He explained, "I'll call 
the course in a few hours and find out what time I tee off tomorrow but it will 
probably be around twelve-thirty as that was the last tee time today.  It looks 
as if I will be in one of the last few groups."

Sarah and Roxanne agreed and they left for home.  The day was hot so Dave and 
Sarah agreed to relax in the pool before having a late supper.  With Sarah's 
parents home Roxanne had to again play the role of the uniformed maid.

After swimming for an hour and then eating a large supper, Dave called the golf 
course and confirmed he was actually in the final group at twelve-thirty.  He 
then spent the evening surfing the internet and working out his remaining summer 
schedule.  He recreated his old plan and listed the dates and locations in an 
excel spreadsheet.  Dave looked at his planned schedule and realized how busy 
the next three weeks were going to be.  

He would arrive home on Wednesday and have three days with Jennifer before he 
golfed in a Merit Tour event on Saturday.  His father and he were leaving right 
from that golf course for his tournament in North Carolina.  He remembered the 
trip to South Carolina earlier that year and realized they would have to drive 
until after midnight just to get halfway.  Then on Sunday they would drive to 
Cornelius, North Carolina.  Dave went to the MSN maps site and found Cornelius 
situated just north of Charlotte.

On Monday Dave would have to qualify for the tournament which would be played 
Tuesday through Thursday.  After the tournament was complete they would leave 
for home and hopefully arrive late Friday night or early Saturday.  Dave then 
had Saturday and Sunday to prepare for the Merit Tour Championship on Monday 
through Wednesday.  He then had a few days off before going to Cape Breton for 
the Atlantic tournament.

Dave just shook his head and asked himself, "Am I nuts?"  Then he laughed to 
himself, "No, I'm just a golf nut."  

Dave spent some time on the American Junior Golf Association website and 
estimated what he needed to shoot to qualify.  He looked at some of the earlier 
results of tournaments to date and was surprised when he heard Sarah ask, "Are 
you going to sleep tonight or spend all night on the computer?"

Dave looked at his watch and was stunned to see he had been surfing the web for 
two hours.  He smiled and replied, "Yes, I think I'll head up now.  I lost track 
of time."

Sarah walked up beside him and watched as he closed down programs.  The 
spreadsheet was the last program open and Sarah asked, "Do you mind if I ask 
what that schedule is?"

Dave explained, "That is my golf schedule for the next month."

Sarah choked, "Are you serious?  All you will be doing the next three weeks is 
traveling and golfing."

Dave answered as he closed down the program.  "That's what summers are for."

Sarah just shook her head as she followed Dave upstairs.  They walked into his 
room and Dave was pleasantly surprised when she stripped down and climbed in bed 
with him as if that were the most natural thing to do.  He cuddled her soft warm 
body as he cupped a round breast in his hand.  He was thinking about the 
wonderful time he had had with her and Roxanne the previous night as he fell 
asleep with her comfortably in his arms.

When he awoke the next morning, she was gone.  He showered and went to her room.  
She wasn't there so he went looking for her.  He found her in the library 
surfing the internet.  She asked him how he felt and he said he slept really 
well and had dreamt all night he was holding a gorgeous English princess.

She smiled as he kissed her softly.  Roxanne soon entered and announced that 
breakfast was served.

Dave ate a large breakfast and thanked Sarah's parents when they wished him good 
luck that day.  Sarah said she and Roxanne would see him later at the golf 
course and Dave warned her that he may not talk to her at all during the round 
today as he wanted to show he could win this big tournament.  She said she 
understood as he kissed her goodbye at the door and walked to the Rolls.

Raymond dropped him off at nine-thirty and Dave spent an hour and half hitting 
balls before he went to the first tee to watch Chris and then shortly afterwards 
Thomas tee off.  He wished both of them luck and they returned the good wishes.  
Thomas added, "And for the Queen's sake don't allow that Irishman to beat you."  
Then he laughed and said, "Just kidding."

Dave thought back to the first time he met Thomas and how Thomas teased about 
only liking him because he was a good golfer and he truly wondered whether 
Thomas was completely joking then or now.  He again thought about the wealthy 
environment Sarah, Thomas, and their friends grew up in and he considered 
himself lucky to be just "common folk".  He really liked his life and was 
happily reminded that he would never trade it for anything.

Dave walked to the putting green and spent an hour putting and chipping.  A 
little after twelve he hit a few more balls to make sure he hadn't stiffened up; 
then he went to the first tee.  

Eventually there were only the three leading golfers left to tee off; James was 
called to the tee first.  James hit a nice drive down the middle before Dave was 
called to the tee.  He was focused and ready; after going through his normal 
pre-shot routine he launched a huge drive down the left side of the fairway.  
The Irishman, O'Reilly, hit last and his ball finished slightly right and longer 
than James' drive but much shorter than Dave's.  Dave and James both birdied the 
first hole while O'Reilly bogeyed.

Dave and James set the pace on the front nine and traded leads several times.  
Through word of mouth of the crowd Dave and James knew they had slipped ahead 
off all the rest of the players by three strokes.  They were both five under par 
through nine holes.

Dave made a rare bogey on the tenth hole and James birdied, giving him a two 
stroke lead; but Dave battled back and birdied the twelfth, thirteen, and 
fifteenth holes to pull back even with James.

Dave was still amazed how well James putted while only driving the ball 
adequately.  Dave thought about the famous golf saying "Drive for show and putt 
for dough."  And he immediately knew James could definitely putt for dough.

They both made par on both sixteen and seventeen so they arrived at the par four 
eighteenth tied at seven under par for the day and twelve under for the 
tournament.  The wind was at their back and Dave had the honor from his birdie 
on fifteen.  He decided to hit a three-wood and use the strong tailwind to carry 
the green.  After a focused practice swing he stood over his ball and nailed the 
three-wood perfectly.  The ball landed on the upslope in front of the green but 
still bounced forward and rolled to the back of the green.  Lucky for Dave the 
pin was just past middle and he had about twelve feet for an eagle attempt.  

James hit next and hit his three-wood into the fairway to the right side - a 
perfect place for his approach shot.  Dave didn't pay attention to O'Reilly as 
he was all but out of this round. 

Dave walked up the fairway confident he had a good chance to win this tournament 
but he was focusing on the putt.

James hit just a fair wedge shot and it rolled just past Dave's ball and 
slightly to the right.  The Irishman hit his second shot onto the green about 
three feet from the pin.

Dave and James both surveyed their putts before James eventually stood over his 
ball.  He focused on the hole and hit the fourteen-footer dead middle.  He 
didn't even flinch when it hit the cup and dropped; he just coolly walked to the 
hole and pulled out his ball.

Dave felt he had the line for his putt and he finally stood over his thirteen 
foot putt knowing if he sank it; he won.  Dave pulled the putter straight back 
but as soon as he hit the ball he knew he was off the hole and his ball rolled 
past the edge and about a foot long.  Dave lined up his short putt and knocked 
it dead centre for his birdie.  O'Reilly also made his birdie.

Dave knew that he and James were headed for a playoff.  Dave had never 
participated in a playoff before but he was psyched for a win today.  After all 
the scorecards were signed and the officials were satisfied that a playoff was 
required, Dave and James headed to the first tee, the playoff started on hole 
number one.

A huge crowd followed but Dave was in a zone and closed everyone out completely.  
They flipped for honors; Dave won the coin toss and teed off first.  He hit a 
huge drive down the first fairway - well inside the one hundred and fifty yard 
marker.  James hit a solid drive but it faded into the rough right of the 
fairway.

James' second shot landed short of the green but the ball came out of the rough 
hot and it bounced, then rolled, to the back of the green.  The pin was on the 
front leaving James about fifty feet from the hole. 

Dave settled over his shot and hit a nice wedge.  He bounced the ball well in 
front and it rolled to about six feet - bump-and-run.  Dave clenched his fist 
and did a low fist pump, then straightened up quickly and moved to the green 
confident he could knock the six foot putt in and win.

James took his time looking at his putt from all sides.  Dave figured that, with 
the two different breaks on the green, James would do well to finish within five 
feet of the hole.  James finally settled over the ball and, after a pregnant 
pause to confirm his line and weight, he stroked the ball smoothly. 

Dave only half watched as James hit the ball but half way to the hole Dave could 
tell the weight looked right and so did the line.  Dave watched in total shock 
as the ball broke in the second direction and headed directly to the hole.  The 
ball continued dead on line, rolled over the middle of lip, and dropped to the 
bottom without even touching the side of the cup.  With everyone holding their 
collective breath, the sound of the ball rattling in the cup was clearly audible 
before a huge roar erupted from the gallery.

Dave was flabbergasted.  He couldn't believe James had made the putt.  James 
didn't cheer; he didn't pump the air - he simply nodded to the boisterous crowd 
and walked to the hole to retrieve his ball.

Dave looked at his own putt from all sides but somehow he couldn't get James' 
unbelievable putt out of his head.

Dave finally settled over his ball, pulled his putter straight back, and stroked 
it straight through.  The putt had a small break to the left and Dave watched as 
the ball moved from his right lip line to dead centre and then slowly towards 
the left lip.  The ball dove into the left side of the hole and Dave prematurely 
started to lean forward to retrieve the ball from the hole when the ball cruised 
around the back side of the hole and popped straight out the front of the hole 
towards Dave.  A huge "OOOOHHHH!" came out of the crowd.

Dave stared at his ball in disbelief as it hung on the front lip of the hole.  
Dave waited for the ball to drop but, as he walked forward, it was obvious the 
ball was not going to move.  Dave waited another second then tapped the ball in 
the hole and walked to James.  Dave congratulated the winner, "Helluva round, 
James.  You are by far the most incredible putter I have ever seen.  
Congratulations."

James shook Dave's hand and replied, "I've never seen anyone hit the ball so far 
and so consistently, Dave.  It was a pleasure playing with you this weekend; 
thanks and good luck back in Canada."

Dave nodded and then turned, picked his ball from the hole and looked for Sarah 
and Roxanne.  He received many congratulations from people he didn't know and 
some from golfers he had met over the weekend.  Chris walked by and said, 
"Unbelievable, Dave.  That was the most exciting finish I've ever witnessed."

Dave thanked him and continued through the crowd until he finally found Sarah 
and Roxanne.  He hugged them both and gave Sarah a little kiss before he picked 
up his clubs and the three of them walked back to the clubhouse.  

Dave was deep in thought as he walked, and a hundred "what ifs" ran through his 
head.  The large crowd walked back to the clubhouse in groups and Dave heard the 
occasional compliment but he was still thinking, "I can't believe James made 
that putt."

When Dave reached the clubhouse he set his clubs down and sat down on a bench 
putting his face in his hands.  He was still shocked when it finally hit him 
like a ton of bricks.  "James didn't beat me - I beat myself.  I assumed he 
could never make that putt and when he did I was so distracted that I didn't 
make a good putt."

Both Sarah and Roxanne were sitting quietly beside Dave not knowing what to say.  
Dave suddenly sat upright, smiled, and pointedly said, "That was one helluva 
valuable lesson.  I'll never make that mistake again."

He smiled and stood up.  Both Sarah and Roxanne were totally caught off guard by 
his sudden and drastic attitude change.  Sarah whispered, almost too afraid to 
ask, "What lesson?"

Dave pulled her to her feet, took her in his arm, and replied, "Dad always told 
me whenever I lost to not pout or cry.  I can hear him clearly 'Look at why you 
lost and, if you determine that you did your best and lost, then just hold your 
head high with pride.  If you made a mistake and lost, then figure out what the 
mistake was and store it in your memory so you never make that mistake again - 
and then hold your head high with pride.' 

It took today for that to finally sink in.  He had lost his hockey playoffs with 
his AAA team early in the spring but in that case he had done his very best and 
was proud of that.  This time he made a mistake.  So in six short months he got 
to see both sides of his father's good advice and he now understand it 
completely.

Sarah smiled but still looked puzzled so Dave elaborated, "I was so sure that 
James would miss that putt and I would be putting for the win that, when he made 
it, I lost focus and was distracted.  Hopefully, I will never make that mistake 
again."

Sarah and Roxanne both hugged him.  A tournament official asked Dave to come 
around to the eighteenth green for the awards presentation.  The three friends 
followed the official.

As Dave walked around the building he saw that the huge crowd that had followed 
him and James down the first hole was now standing in a horseshoe around the 
green.  In the middle was a tournament official with a microphone in his hand 
along with James and O'Reilly who apparently had finished third overall.

The official was speaking and Dave immediately noticed that O'Reilly was already 
holding an envelope which Dave assumed was his prize.  The announcer saw Dave 
come around the corner and said, "And here comes our runner up, Dave MacDonald, 
from QAI, Canada."  The crowd applauded loudly and Dave nodded thank you as he 
walked towards the announcer.  

The announcer continued, "I'm confident I can speak for everyone here when I say 
we have never seen such a fantastic ball striker before and we are confident 
Dave will win many tournaments and titles when he returns home.  It's hard to 
believe he is only sixteen."

Again the crowd cheered loudly and, as Dave reached the announcer, he shook the 
man's hand then turned and shook both James and the O'Reilly's hands as well.  
The announcer handed Dave an envelope and he thanked the man before turning to a 
third applause by the crowd.

The announcer then raised his voice as he said, "I'd like to hear a huge 
applause for England's own James Bravant.  The best young putter this country 
has ever seen."

The crowd cheered very loud and Dave joined in.  Dave looked through the crowd 
and found Sarah and Roxanne standing near the back.  He stared at them and 
wondered how he was so damn lucky to have made such wonderful friends and 
lovers.  Sarah had noticed him staring so he winked at her and she blushed.  
Dave hardly heard the rest of the speech but James soon stood in front of him 
and they shook hands again before the announcer and the top three finishers 
lined up for a formal picture.

After the pictures were finished, Dave walked to Sarah and Roxanne and asked, 
"Ready to leave?"

Sarah replied, "Raymond is out front."

Dave nodded, got his clubs, took them to storage, then found the Rolls and 
climbed in back.  The dividing window was up and he immediately kissed Roxanne 
and then Sarah; he and whispered, "Sorry, I didn't even notice you on the course 
during the round but I was really focused on my game."

Both hugged him and said how proud they were of him.  Dave eventually opened the 
envelope and was pleased to see a one hundred and fifty pound gift certificate 
to the pro shop at Blackheath.  Dave had already planned to buy a few souvenirs 
plus a nice gift for his father with the Blackheath name and coat of arms.

When they arrived home Sarah's parents were waiting anxiously and congratulated 
Dave on his great round.  

Dave found a phone and called his father.  After three rings, his dad answered, 
"Hello?"

Dave spoke firmly, "I shot sixty two today and tied for the lead - but I lost in 
a playoff.  My opponent sank an unbelievable fifty footer to edge me out.  I 
should have tied him but I was so flabbergasted I missed a makeable putt."

His father replied, "Congratulations Dave, that's a wonderful round.  I'm very 
proud of you.  We're at the beach.  It's a beautiful day.  There are a whole 
bunch of people that want to say hello.  Here's your Mother.  Enjoy the rest of 
your trip and I'll see you on Wednesday."

Dave answered, "Thanks, Dad, see you then."

His mother's voice was the next sound Dave heard and, after a brief recap of his 
tough loss, she wished him well and passed the phone along.  Jennifer was next 
and Dave could actually feel his knees get weak when he heard her voice.  She 
had heard the golf story from his Dad and said she missed him and would be 
waiting for him at the airport.  

She passed the phone along again and this time Dave heard Ann's sexy voice 
manage a hesitant hello; Dave said, "Well, hello there, sexy lady, how is your 
vacation?"

She replied, "I'm having a great week - but it would be a lot better if you were 
here.  Jennifer and I have worked everything out between us and I really miss 
you."

Dave looked around and he was glad he had gone to Lord Thurlow's office to call 
in private.  He spoke softly, "I'm happy you two worked everything out.  I 
really miss the two of you and our good times in the Love Hut."

Ann simply replied, "Me, too."  Dave could tell she was starting to cry and he 
whispered in a shaky voice, "You will always be my first, Ann; and, as I have 
said many times - I will always love you for that."

He heard a very broken, "Goodbye."

And he felt tears well up in his own eyes as he replied, "Goodbye, Ann."

Julie was next and Dave was very happy to hear his sister's voice.  He said he 
missed her and their private talks.  She said she would see him soon.  Beth was 
the final voice to come on the phone and Dave said he loved his little sister 
and would see her soon.

When Dave hung up he had to wipe the tears from his eyes.  He knew he had the 
greatest family and friends.  

He waited ten minutes to compose himself then walked out to find Sarah.  Roxanne 
found him and mentioned that supper was being served in the informal dining 
room.  Roxanne noticed his red eyes and asked, "Is everything okay at home?"

Dave replied, "Yes, spectacular - but I do miss everyone."

She hugged him and then they walked toward the dining room arm-in-arm.  Roxanne 
pulled away from Dave just before they entered; Dave sat down and ate a very 
large meal.

After supper he and Sarah went for a refreshing swim.  It was after dark when 
they emerged from the pool and Sarah asked, "So, are you ready to see the sights 
of London tomorrow?"

Dave replied, "Yes, and I need to pick up some presents for my family.  You 
haven't let me spend any money since I got here so I want to spend most of what 
I have on my family and friends."

When they exited the pool, Roxanne walked out of the mansion and helped dry 
Sarah.  Dave noticed how her drying seemed to tease Sarah a little more than 
usual and, as Roxanne followed Sarah to the change house, he wondered how 
intimate Roxanne and Sarah would remain after he left.  He knew they would 
always be close.

He showered in his room and kept telling himself, "Don't ever underestimate your 
opponents again."

He exited the shower and his now-normal bedmate was waiting for him.  She was 
wearing a simple long white nightshirt; Dave loved the way it both hid and 
pointed out her curves as she moved.

As he crawled onto the bed she whispered, "I want to give you my own special 
tournament prize now."  And she kissed her way down his body.  His soft member 
hardened quickly as she sat up briefly and pulled the white night shirt over her 
head to display her perfect round breasts and soft down-covered pussy.

She leaned forward, took Dave's hardening meat into her mouth, and gently 
caressed his balls as she stroked him to hardness.  Dave closed his eyes and 
enjoyed the incredible pleasure Sarah was giving him.  All his thoughts of golf 
floated away and he had a vivid flashback of Sarah and Roxanne in their school 
uniforms.

He was hard as steel and Sarah was sucking and licking him like a true pro.  She 
managed to take him part way down her throat but not all the way.  Dave soon 
felt his orgasm building and he warned, "I'm cumming."

Sarah simply took his balls in her hand and caressed them as she continued to 
suck.  Dave felt his pistol load-up and shoot into Sarah's soft wet mouth.  He 
moaned as he held her head and drove his seed deep into her wanton mouth.  

Sarah swallowed all his seed and milked every last drop from his slowly wilting 
shaft.  She then looked up at him and whispered, "You have me hooked on this 
now.  I love to make you feel good."

He pulled her up and kissed her softly, briefly tasting the salty residue on her 
lips.  He replied, "You are truly special and Harry will be the luckiest man on 
earth if he gets you."

Sarah smiled and softly said, "I'm not sure I want Harry anymore.  I think I 
might want you."

Dave was surprised but pleased by her words and he held her close and whispered, 
"You are a wonderful person and very special to me. Events have pushed us so 
close together that we can never be completely separated. Even with our love, 
you shouldn't make your mind up too fast.  We've had an exciting few weeks 
together and right now we're both feeling the euphoria of our experiences.  We 
are both still teenagers and have a lot of life to live.  But you never know; it 
is possible we could end up together."

Deep down, Dave knew it was very unlikely.  He could not imagine living the high 
society type of life Sarah enjoyed and he doubted she could live the "normal" 
life he expected to have - but he didn't want to hurt her feelings so he left 
the door open for a future relationship with her.  In truth, the door was barely 
open an inch.

He finished by saying, "I have another year of high school and then, I hope, 
four years of college before I will be ready to face the world.  You have the 
same so let's not make any commitments we can't follow through on - let's just 
see what happens and promise me you will keep your options open.  We love each 
other now but who knows who we might meet over the next few years."

Sarah looked disappointed at what she first thought was rejection but, as Dave 
elaborated, she thought about his words and was happy to hear he said there was 
a chance they could be together.  She was especially happy to hear him say they 
both loved each other and she hugged him tight and replied, "I promise I will 
keep my options open - but right now I only want you."

Dave hugged her tenderly and replied, "Right now, you have me."  And they fell 
asleep in each other's arms.

Dave woke the next morning very refreshed but alone as usual.  He showered and 
got dressed for a day of sightseeing.  He knocked on Sarah's closed door with 
camera in hand.  After a slight pause he heard Roxanne say she would be there in 
a moment.  She eventually opened the door and, when she saw it was Dave, she 
ushered him into the room.  

Sarah was lying on the bed and it seemed apparent that she and Roxanne must have 
been having some deep discussions.  He knew they weren't likely having sex 
because the bed was not overly messy and neither of them appeared overly excited 
or tired.  Roxanne finally said, "We were just talking about you.  Are you ready 
to see all of London?"

Dave said he was so Sarah got off the bed and moved beside him.  She was wearing 
a pretty powder blue dress with white shoes.  The three of them walked to the 
dining room and, after eating a sizable breakfast, made their way to the front 
door.  Roxanne disappeared during breakfast and was waiting for them in the 
Rolls wearing a sexy pink summer dress.  Dave sat in the middle and, with the 
privacy window up, was affectionately kissed and teased as Raymond drove them 
around London.

After buying miniature Big Ben alarm clocks for Julie and Beth, Dave asked to go 
to a jewelry store.  Sarah, of course, took him to the jewelry store she 
frequented and it only took Dave two minutes to realize the prices were way out 
of his price range.  He quietly asked Roxanne, "Is there a jewelry store close 
by that a poor Canadian visitor can afford?"

Roxanne laughed before she ushered him and Sarah back into the Rolls and had 
Raymond drive them to a different, more modest jewelry store.  Dave was very 
pleased to see items in his price range and he picked out a charm for his 
mother's bracelet which read "World's Best Mom".  He then asked Roxanne and 
Sarah if they would leave him alone for a while so he could shop in private.  
Sarah seemed a little annoyed but Roxanne understood and she led Sarah to a 
different store to find new lingerie.  

He found a nice little silver chain with a heart pendant.  He first bought one 
for Sarah, took another for Roxanne, and finally bought a third for Katherine.  
Dave asked the jeweler if he could engrave the pendants and after hearing a 
reply of yes, Dave thought about what to put on each.  For Sarah he wrote down, 
"Love Always, DM".  For Roxanne he wrote "Your Loving Servant, DM" and for 
Katherine he wrote "My Special Love, Dave".  

Deep down Dave didn't know if he would ever get to give the pendant to Katherine 
because if she were to find someone else over the summer and they didn't get 
back together, their life together would be over.  Dave briefly became a little 
sad as he thought about Katherine and how little she had been on his mind these 
past few weeks - but he was shaken from his reverie by the jeweler who asked, 
"Would you like anything else, Sir?"

Dave handed the man the sheet of paper with the three phrases and went looking 
for something different for Jennifer.  He looked at earrings, chains, and rings 
but finally selected a nice ankle bracelet made of gold.  He thought it was 
perfect for his long-time best friend and summer lover.

The jeweler finished the pendants and wrapped each one for Dave.  Dave carefully 
marked an initial on each box.  He made a personal note not to let Sarah see the 
boxes for fear of upsetting her with one for Katherine.  Sarah knew about 
Jennifer so he didn't suspect that would be a problem but he didn't want to have 
to explain who Katherine was; sometimes a man needs his secrets.

Dave walked out of the store with his gifts and found Sarah and Roxanne sitting 
on a bench waiting for him.  Sarah kind of nosed around the bag but Dave teased, 
"Keep your nose out of the bag or you won't get your surprise."  That seemed to 
make Sarah happy and she took Dave's arm and led him to the Rolls.

Dave's next stop was obviously a very strange request to his friends.  He asked 
to go to a local police station.  Raymond did as Dave asked and pulled up in 
front of a police station.  Dave went inside and spoke to the officer at the 
main desk.  Dave explained he was from Canada and that his uncle was a policeman 
in QAI.  He elaborated that his uncle collected police hats from various cities 
in North America and Dave wanted to buy a bobby's hat for his uncle.  The 
officer at the desk told Dave he knew a bobby who also liked to trade hats and 
called that officer to the front desk.

Dave talked to the man who agreed to sell Dave a hat for what Dave thought was a 
low price, on the condition Dave got a reciprocal hat from his uncle and sent it 
to the bobby.  Dave had agreed and was happy to walk out of the police station 
with the bobby's hat and mailing address.  Raymond, Sarah, and Roxanne all 
laughed when Dave showed them his acquisition.

Dave's last shopping stop was the Blackheath golf shop.  He picked out a nice 
golf shirt for his Dad and the three hats; one each for his Dad, John, and 
himself.  He still had a little of his gift certificate left so he bought a ball 
repairer with the Blackheath logo.  He knew he would never use it as long as he 
had his lucky one which he kept in his golf bag but it would be a nice backup 
just in case.

While at the golf course, Dave ran into Edward who he had golfed with the first 
day at Blackheath.  Edward congratulated him on a great tournament then asked 
when he was going back to Canada.  Dave explained he was leaving on Wednesday.  
Edward asked if Dave wanted to golf with him tomorrow and Dave said he would 
love to.  They booked a tee time for ten-thirty before Dave left with Sarah and 
Roxanne.

During the drive back to the Thurlow residence, Dave thought about the short 
time he had left in England; he was a bit sad to have his time winding down but 
he was also looking forward to getting home.
