Before he could answer David came back to leave a tip. "Patti, since you can't work for me until you graduate, maybe we can go to dinner sometime soon.'

Pat flushed, looking for an excuse. Finally he came up with one: "I have classes at night so I can't...and I study all weekend."

"Well, then let's have lunch together next week."

Quickly Pat replied, "No...No thank you. I have finals and have to study. Besides, Mom doesn't like me dating during the week." Pat looked at Mrs. Johnson for help.

Mrs. Johnson smiled, "It's true, I don't like her going out on weekdays, but I don't see any reason you can't go out on weekends. But I only allow her to double date, but she does have a very lovely sister, Denise. Do you have a friend?"

Pat grew white with annoyance. Why did she have to interfere? He was not about to go on a date with a man. He shook his head and started to speak, but David cut him off.

"Sure, it's set, this Saturday at 7 p.m. Come on Patti...don't be shy."

Mrs. Johnson added, "It's good for you to get out of the house." Pat saw that glint in her eyes and he realized that she was not accepting any excuses.

He became warm all over, but he lowered his eyes in deference to her willful stare and softly said, "Call me and I'll tell you how to get to our house. My number is 5552387."

"Patti, dear," Mrs. Johnson corrected, "it's 555-3387." "Good." David beamed, "I'll call to make sure Denise

can go with my friend Mike. See you Saturday." He finally

had succeeded in landing a date with this very attractive chick.

After he left, Mrs. Johnson said, "Don't worry, you can always tell him Denise wouldn't go, or your sick or something." Mrs. Johnson smiled thinking, "Sink or swim, little Pat."

Pat didn't say much on the way home. He was mad at Mrs. Johnson for embarrassing him.

CHAPTER THREE...OUT TO DINNER

When they arrived home, Denise met them at the door to help with the packages. Her mouth dropped when she saw Pat. "What happened to you? You look like you've been a girl all your life." Before he could answer Mrs. Johnson told Pat to go up and change into something more casual.

Mrs. Johnson answered Denise's questions, "He wanted to be a little more perfect, so I took him to the beauty salon. He seemed to like being out dressed as a girl. He tried on those dresses and seemed to like them, so I bought them. He even wanted panties to wear under his male clothes. I'm a little worried about Pat. He even made dates for you two, with a couple of men. He will probably deny he wants to go but..."

Denise interrupted, "Mom, what can I do? I encouraged him and we have had fun. He looks so cute."

Mrs. Johnson suggested, "I suggest you encourage his femininity. Help him look as good as possible. In fact, you might even tell him you like him being a girl, and force him into being girlish. I've told your father and he said he'll go along with anything, because he knows you love Pat. He'll get his fill."

Dr. Johnson came home from work. "Tell Pat to come down and model his new dresses for your father. Maybe we can get him to take us girls out to dinner."

Denise went up to their bedroom. Pat was about to change into Denise's knit sweater and skirt set. He looked so attractive in the floral dress. Denise impulsively hugged Pat tight to her body.

Pat wondered what brought that on. Seeing the question in Pat's face, she said, "Well can't I give my own luscious creation a hug. You have a remarkably small waist for a man. You've become such an adorable girl. My family has become very fond of you. Come on downstairs, Daddy wants to see his new daughter's outfits."

Arm in arm they went downstairs to the living room. Dr. Johnson whistled when he saw Pat sway into the room. "Wow, that dress is you Patti! You girls go fix your makeup, I'm going to take you out for dinner. The best place in
