In a sentence

Here, 'другу' is in the dative case, used to indicate the indirect object of the sentence, showing with whom the subject (I) went to the park.
Књигу сам вратио свом другу.

'Другу' appears in the dative case again, showing to whom the book was returned, serving as the indirect object of this action.
