Simone, the 13 year old and little B reluctantly climbed back into the car after their visit to the library. Even though they'd only been gone for twenty minutes, the car already felt like an oven, and the AC would take a few minutes to kick in.
As she drove home, Simone spotted her old friend Snake, doing some gardening in front of her house. Simone pulled over and rolled down the window to say hi.
"You coming for a swim?" Asked Snake.
Simone looked at her clothes: light, but not swimming material. Ditto for the kids although, given their pitiful, begging eyes, they'd have been more than willing to jump into the pool fully clothed.
"Is it okay if we come back this afternoon, after we've had lunch?" Simone asked.
And Snake said yes.
Bless friends with pools!
