Simon nodded but placed a hand on April's shoulder to stay her from leaving, "Just one more thing.  Bring along the balls...  But not in your purse or pockets.  I want you to wear them, put the entire chain in this time.  No half-measures."  He then returned April's kiss with one of his own before fussing over April's appearance.  Simon may not have no respect for Chris, but he wasn't about to slack off just yet.  After a minute, he walked with April back through the thicket and onto the trail.<br/><br/>~~~<br/><br/>Chris wandered down the path, he had lost sight of April as she had rounded the bend and when he got there, she was gone.  He grimaced, April was in such a bad mood even though he had yet to touch the cell phone.  The temptation burned and he contemplating soothing the pain.  Instead, he jogged down the path looking to see where April had stormed off to.  Chris covered another half-mile of the trail but hadn't seen her there or sitting on any benches.  He fear the worst would come when he finally found her.
