"Maybe we should have called first," Wilma said, glancing around the house in surprise. It was deserted and she was really disappointed to come home to an empty house.
"It's better this way," George grinned. "They're probably out at the store or something. We could be sitting here when they come back. That'll be just as much of a surprise."
"I guess so," Wilma sighed. "I just hope that they don't stay out all day. I'm really excited about being with the kids again."
"Hey," George said, cupping his ear. "I hear someone shouting. Maybe they're out by the pool."
Wilma and George raced through the house and stopped at the patio door. Sure enough, there were three heads bobbing up and down in the pool. No wonder they hadn't answered the doorbell. They were making too much noise splashing and shouting out there.
"Oh, my God!" George gasped as Sally raced through the water and climbed up on the edge of the pool for another dive.
"She… she's skinny dipping, for Christ sakes!" he said.
Wilma's mouth flew open and she tugged George's arm as Scott emerged on the other side, his body gleaming with droplets of water.
"Scott too!" Wilma whispered. "My God, George! It's a good thing we came home today. If Wanda walked in and found those kids skinny dipping, she'd probably call the police! I don't blame them though. It must have been awful for Scott and Sally the past two weeks. See? They've even got a friend of theirs with them. That just goes to show what happens whew you discipline kids too much."
"Jesus," George chuckled. "They sure are having a good time, aren't they? I wish that other girl would turn around. I don't recognize her from the back."
"They're having an absolute blast," Wilma giggled. "I hate to spoil their fun but maybe we'd better go out and make them put their suits on. If Wanda comes home and finds them like this, she'll kill all three of them."
"I don't think so," George chuckled, pointing at the third member of the party. "Just take a good look at that new girl, honey. I'll catch you when you faint."
"What?" Wilma giggled, moving behind George where she could see more clearly. "Oh, my God, George! It… it… it's WANDA!"
"Yup," George chuckled, winking at his wife as she gave him a startled glance. "Well… what do you say, Wilma? Are we going to hide behind the patio door like two old prudes or are we going to go and join that nude party in the pool?"
"We're going to join the party," Wilma giggled. "I can't let my sister have all the fun."
George let out a whoop as he chased Wilma out the door. They'd comeback from Europe early for all the wrong reasons but it had turned out to be exactly the right thing to do. Things were going to get a hell of a lot more exciting before their vacation was over. And it was all going to happen right here at home!
