“Find your places for the first round,” Tanner said.

The old woman is my partner for the first round, thought Sinclair with dismay, flipping through the folder they had been given, to the sheet which detailed the players’ assignments for each round. She might be a good player, but I wanted to start the game off right with one of the strong players like Bruce Saber.

“Oh Mr. Davis–” Cat approached Sinclair, her partner for round 1, touching him gently on the forearm to get his attention. Sinclair, lost in thought, uttered a startled “What!”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Davis.”

“It’s ok,” Sinclair replied, looking into the anxious blue eyes of the old lady. She wants to talk to me, he thought with a sinking feeling. “Yes, Mrs. Trahan?” he continued as politely as he could.

“We’re partners, this first round, I think,” she said brightly.

“Yes,” Sinclair nodded, making an attempt to hide his lack of enthusiasm.

“How delightful. Let’s find our room, shall we?”

“We’re in room 2,” Sinclair told her.

Danny and Bruce had taken their seats as East-West at table 2, when Cat and Sinclair walked in.

“Hello, opponents,” Cat waved cheerfully.

“Hello, governor,” Bruce looked up with a grin. “Are you ready to play the game of your life?”

“Not really,” Cat replied sweetly. “My life is rather precious, you know. I don’t have much of it left. Not like you, darling.”

Bruce rose gallantly to help her into her seat.

Peter opened the door, bearing the four boards of the round.

“Ah, here’s Peter,” Cat smiled happily. “Hello dear.”

“Mrs. Trahan,” Peter nodded in acknowledgement, placing the first board of the round in the center of the table. “You know you’re not to shuffle. The hands are pre-dealt.”
