Timothy proposed an unconventional way to celebrate my recent promotion–golf.

As we entered the venue, the sound of laughter and the clatter of golf clubs echoed through the air. The place was a vibrant mix of enthusiasts and casual players, all gathered to enjoy a round of golf in a climate–controlled

environment.

“This is fancy,” I told him as he took my hand. “I was expecting mini–golf, but this is very high–tech.”

“This is way better than mini–golf,” he told me. He then turned to the woman at the desk and asked for some golf balls. She gave him a bag full of them.

He led me to a station in the middle where a large golf course stretched before us beyond the entryway. I eyed the golf clubs skeptically.

“Trust me. You’re going to love this,” he said, handing me a golf club with a grin.

I smirked, twirling the club in my hand. “I hope you’re not expecting a hole–in–one from me.”

The first few minutes were filled with laughter as Timothy attempted to teach me the basics. I soon discovered that hitting a stationary ball with a club required a little skill, or maybe just hand–eye coordination. Meanwhile, Timothy swung his club with an air of confidence, as if the sport came naturally to him.

“You’ve got to feel the rhythm,” he said, demonstrating a smooth swing that sent the ball soaring and rolling into one of the pits. As it landed, the pit flashed with neon lights.

I raised an eyebrow, amused. “Rhythm? I thought this was all about brute force and precision.”

Timothy smirked at me. “It’s a delicate dance, my friend.”

As the game progressed, it became evident that Timothy’s golf skills were far from impressive. He’d just been lucky the first couple of tries. His swings were erratic, often sending the ball veering off–course or, in some cases, missing it entirely.

I couldn’t help but burst into laughter at his comical attempts.

“It’s not as easy as it looks,” he grumbled. “I don’t see you getting any.”

I’ve gotten way more than you!” I protested, playfully punching him in the arm. “Maybe you should stick to ice hockey. At least there, you have a puck to hit and ice to slide on.”

He shot me a mock glare. “This is nothing like playing on ice. I’d take a hockey stick and a puck over this any day.”

I took my turn, the golf ball soaring through the air and landing with a satisfying thud. As if wanting to punctuate my point, the ball rolled into the pit. “See? Not that hard.”

Timothy crossed his arms, feigning annoyance. “Beginner’s luck.“”

As the game progressed, I found myself thoroughly enjoying the unconventional outing. The atmosphere was light, and our competitive banter added a layer of intimacy to the experience. Despite Timothy’s less–than–stellar performance, he maintained a good–natured attitude, embracing the challenge with a sense of humor.
