FULL SUMMARY:

In Chapter 14, Jak is busy working at Koffieklets, adoring Julia's T-shirt brought from Italy by her father. He deals with two difficult customers, a man upset the menu is only in English and a woman complaining about lukewarm milk. He appeases them by speaking fluent Afrikaans, providing new milk, and relocating their seating to a window-side table by following Julia’s mother's 'Golden Rule.':

When they depart, they are friendly, leaving Jak a tip that pleases him, reinforcing the effectiveness of the Golden Rule.

Julia, seeing Jak's tip, jokes that soon a week's worth of his tips will be hers, a reference to their earlier bet. Jak looks concerned and confesses he hasn't yet asked Natasja to the Spring Dance. Julia encourages him to do so the next day. Jak nervously admits he had sat with Natasja during lunch too. Julia underscores the importance of a personal invite and suggests he invite Natasja for coffee at Koffieklets. Upon Jak's surprise at the proposition, Julia assures him of a quiet table in the corner for privacy.
