Episode 11

I then told Aunt Jane that Jill and I were going to pose for Kelly that next weekend.

"That's great," said Aunt Jane. "I've always wanted to try that but I never found anyone to do that with; a serious artist, I mean."

"I'm looking forward to doing it, it sounds exciting..." said I. "But I am nervous about it too."

"I'm sure it will be a rewarding experience. And fun too. Hey, before I forget ... Barbara and Jaki are coming over tonight after I get home from work. We're having a hot wax party."

I shuddered. "I'll be sure to keep myself scarce."

"I wouldn't worry about it," laughed Aunt Jane. "No one is going to mind."

"It's not that ... just the idea pouring hot wax over my privates makes me cringe. The Inquisition would be more humane..."

With that, Aunt Jane went to her room, got ready for work and left. I finished my breakfast and called Jill up. We talked for a little while. Jill decided that she would come over than afternoon after her exam. I decided that now would be as good as any time to start looking for a summer job. I dug out the morning paper from amongst the rose bushes and looked through the want ads and online. I sent out a few resumes and applications, but nothing looked very promising or rewarding. Before I knew it, it was well past lunchtime and I heard a knocking on the door.

I looked through the curtain covering the door, and saw and Jaki and her mom, Barbara.

"Hello, Joe ... nice to see you again," said Jaki. "Do you mind if we undress here?"

I shook my head and Jaki and Barbara immediately peeled their sundresses over their heads. They wore nothing underneath.

"It feels so much nicer to be nude," said Barbara.

"Absolutely," replied Jaki.

"Come on in," said I, "Aunt Jane isn't home yet..."

"I'm right here, Joe," answered Aunt Jane who had just come in through the back with Jill. "Hello everybody. Ready to get started?"

"Yep," answered Jaki. "Let's get our wax on!"

"Follow me," said Aunt Jane as she and Jill started to shed clothing, "I have snacks and drinks in the fridge."

"I'd better get out of here," said I to Jill.

"You don't have to. Why don't you join us out on the patio?"

I mumbled something and then went upstairs to my room. From my open window, I heard them talk. With all the guests there, it was just like a party was going on.

"Jane, thanks for having us over," said Barbara as she helped herself to a glass of chardonnay.

"Oh, it's my pleasure," returned Aunt Jane. "We should do this more frequently."

"Well, I suppose that depends on our personal grooming needs," laughed Barbara.

"Hey Jill, how come you're here?" asked Jaki. "Are you going to give in to the trend and wax too?"

"Actually, Joe and I are going out," answered Jill. "And, no ... I'm still going for the 'natural' look."
