Over the next few days, Teri's mother visited the Novicki house at the times when both of Pavel's parents were at work, and after school Teri herself came to sit with Pavel, read to him, chat about the things they were both interested in – they actually had few tastes in common other than a liking for 'Scooby Doo', but Teri had a small collection of VCR tapes at home and brought these, so they both
lay on the sofa, under the blanket, and laughed together at the antics of the Mystery Incorporated gang. Despite all that had led up to it, this was a happy and relaxing time for Teri. As well as supporting Pavel and his parents, she was also being herself, and rather enjoyed being a child, without the involvement of adult men.
But that could not be kept at bay for long. She was due to see George on Saturday, though not at the Caravan. He had a little cottage near Penicuik, what he called his But-and-Ben. He wanted somewhere which would be just for the two of them. Although he had been pleased with the previous weekend, particularly the envy he had felt from his friends, for truly, none of them had so delightful a Playmate as Teri, he had been concerned that things had got out of hand, both with Teri and with little Pavel. It wasn't that he actually felt any guilt, but rather that he had a deep and abiding reluctance to damage his or anyone's property. Behind his back the others called him a petite bourgeois, and he knew that secretly they regarded him as a Social Climber. Although he was now the owner of two successful chains of shops, he remembered Private Ear's dismissal of Prime Minister Teddy Heath – George's personal Hero, and the man he desired to emulate – as 'Grocer' Heath, a reference to his humble origins. Origins which George shared. Like Maggie Thatcher. These dilettante snobs may scoff, but the turn of the shopkeeper was coming.
And when Saturday came, after first visiting Pavel, who was now pretty much recovered – physically, at least, from his ordeal, and ensuring that he had a good supply of comics and videos to keep him contented till the morrow, when they had arranged to go, just them, by bus to the Botanic Gardens, with a picnic provided by both their mothers – Teri popped along to George's first shop, where they had together enjoyed so many firsts: his claiming of her virginity being the Big One, followed closely by her first Blow Job and First Anal; Teri still, despite what had happened just last weekend, loved George with all her heart, body and soul, confident in the secure knowledge that he reciprocated that commitment; so when she saw him outside, with his back towards her, talking to someone, she broke into a jog with a great open smile on her face. She called his name and, when he turned, she saw that the person he was talking to was Dr Montgomery, Monty!
