V & Di have begun spending most of their time together. They have coffee and brunch together every morning. They sunbathe together - though V uses tanning oil, and Di prefers sunscreen. They talk and gossip, shop together, etc. It's becoming a tad strange to see one without the other.
I have spent some time making some home improvements over the last month or two with my free time. First, the easy part. Since V & Di have become so close, and in fact, the four of us have been hanging together so frequently, we all agreed it should be easier. I installed a gate in the fence between our back yards. Now we can all come and go as we please, without having to go in and out the front doors.
The tougher project was to re-do the outdoor shower. The wood I used last time was apparently bad, as it had begun to rot. So I had to tear it all out, leaving only the shower heads. This time, I went with pressure-treated posts for longevity, and lightly frosted glass. No doors this time - I made the entire setup a bit wider, with slim entryways on the men's and women's sides that remains open. The frosted glass starts two feet off the ground, and stops at four feet now, a half foot shorter than before. It still gives V and I enough privacy while we shower.
I kept the center divider, still a full foot shorter than the surrounding walls. It is made of traditional glass, no frosting. There's little privacy inside the shower.
From the outside, silhouettes and body shapes are quite visible, though not much detail. If I had gone any lighter on the glass frosting, I don't think anyone would use the shower.
Seth & Di were over this sunny afternoon for a cookout - nothing much strange about that. We ate a few hours ago, and have all been enjoying the day , goofing around in the pool and soaking up the rays. All of us were completely hammered after way, way too much beer.
"Hey Seth, mind taking a pic of Di & me?" V asks innocently. "My phone is.. oh fuck it's inside. Use yours and send it to me."
I'm not exaggerating when I say that Seth pitched a tent in his board shorts. His hands shaking, he fumbles to grab his camera, and starts snapping as soon as V & Di were holding hands and smiling.
I should have said something of course. He can take as many pics of his wife as he wants. But right now, this man is taking pics of his wife in a thin white bikini, and my wife, bronzed goddess that she is, completely topless. V leans over to kiss Di on the cheek. Seth is sure to snap those.
