Petie scampered out of the way of the flying newspaper. He couldn't remember ever seeing his mistress this angry, even when he used to… you know. "I'm sorry, baby. Come here." Louise bent down to pet the cowering dog. "You're my best friend, you know that?"

Yeah, he knew. She was his too.

"What am I going to do, Petie? I screwed up. She admitted to making a mistake, and told me how bad it made her feel. And I threw that right in her face, just like she said." Louise had berated herself for a whole day, not eating much and not sleeping well at all. Marty had come home at her usual time, but had gone straight into the guest room and locked the door without speaking. This morning, she was gone when Lou got up.

Louise had played the whole thing over again and again in her head, and knew without a doubt that she was wrong, wrong, wrong.

The Boston terrier looked at her sheepishly.

"That's right. I need to apologize." Marty liked giving flowers, but she didn't seem like the type that would enjoy getting them. No, and besides, flowers wouldn't be near enough. When Rhonda got really mad, it always took jewelry.

Jewelry! Hurriedly, Louise went into the master bedroom and opened the bottom drawer in the bureau Marty had emptied for her things. Sifting through the golf shirts, she extracted the mahogany box that she had been afraid to leave behind in Florida. It held the collection of gold, silver, and jewels that Rhonda had worn through the years. Most of these items were chosen by Louise, given as gifts at Christmas, birthdays, and Valentine's Day.

There! Louise studied the small gold lapel pin, only an inch and a half long, a lady golfer in the midst of her backswing. A tiny diamond chip represented the ball on the tee. She'd given the pin in Rhonda's Christmas stocking the year they'd both taken up golf. Her lover had worn it often, and it was one of Louise's favorites.

No reason for this to sit in the dark box, she reasoned. If it weren't enough for a peace offering, she could always come back and get the small emerald earrings. Now wouldn't Marty look nice in those!

The tall woman checked the clock: 12:45. Technically, she and the cute little golf pro still had a tee time in 30 minutes. Louise wondered if she'd show.
