"Daddy, I'm naked!"
"Oh yeah, so I see. I'm so sorry for barging in on you honey. The door wasn't locked and I didn't hear the water running or anything. Are you almost finished?"
I noticed the two books in his hand. Apparently he planned to spend some quality reading time in the bathroom.
"Yes Daddy, I'm finished. But dammit, knock!"
Not bothering to cover up, I stormed out. He playfully smacked my bare behind as I scooted past him.
I dressed quickly and ran out the front door. My girlfriends were waiting on me to pick them up for a shopping trip to the mall. But my car wouldn't start. I ran back into the house and knocked at the bathroom door. No answer. I opened the door. My father, sitting on the commode, took off the earphones when he saw me.
"What are you reading, Daddy?"
"Oh, just . . . uh . . . uh . . . a photography book," he stuttered, covering his erect penis with the book in his hand. I could see the other book lying on the floor was a medical journal.
"Daddy, my car won't start. Can I borrow yours?"
"Sure, honey. The keys are on my dresser."
"Thanks, Daddy!"

I picked up Ciara and Amy and we shopped all afternoon. Trying to get Amy, a tall long-legged brunette with huge breasts, into a Burberry string bikini was quite the mission impossible. But then we couldn't find a top to fit the petite blonde Ciara either. "If only they made bikini tops for boys," I joked. Ciara didn't care. She was rather proud of her itty bitty perkies. Well, itty bitty compared to Amy and I. But I swear Ciara looks like all nipple up top.
After seven hours of trying stuff on and buying some of it, we decided to go to Chi Chi's for margaritas and a bite to eat. The conversation drifted from Coach bracelets to sex and then to Gucci cosmetic bags and back to sex and to Missoni scarves and back to sex again.
"Dang, I wish we had more money to shop," Amy complained. "I just loved that Louis Vuitton keychain. But it cost $230."
Suddenly Ciara looked like she had a bright idea. This didn't happen very often. "You know guys, our favorite erotic website is having a Nude Day Contest. Top three naked babes get big cash prizes. All you have to do is post some pics. No engaging in graphic sex pics or anything. Just T & A."
"What's T & A?" Amy asked seriously.
Ciara and I rolled our eyes.
"Tits and ass," Ciara finally stated matter-of-factly. "But who are we going to get to take the pictures? We should have them professionally done. Also, the pictures are supposed to have some theme. I mean, who can't just take off her clothes and get snapped? Ours need to be special."
"I get nervous when I take my clothes off in front of someone I don't know," Amy sighed. "That's why I never have sex until at least the second date. With guys, anyway. Girls, I don't need a date."
We left the restaurant and went to my house to go for a swim. The weather had turned insufferably hot. Almost 90 degrees and humid. The girls hadn't brought their suits so the three of us skinny dipped. Not a first.
My father wandered around the yard and garden, taking pictures of flowers and vegetables and paying no mind to us frolicking in the water.
"Dad got a new camera," I mentioned, "trying to explain his total obsession with his new hobby."
Amy covered her mouth and coughed. "Fucking cold. You guys want a cough drop?" she asked as she popped one in her mouth.
"No thanks," Ciara replied, as I shook my head indicating no.
"Sarah?"
"Yes, Amy?"
"Why don't we get your father to take our pictures?"
"Huh?"
"Your dad—his camera—we are naked—our pictures—get it?"
"Uh . . . but—" I stammered.
"Yeah, why not?" Ciara agreed. "It's not like he hasn't seen us . . . uh . . . you know. I mean, he is our gynecologist."
"Well, he's my gynecologist too, but—"
"Oh, let's just do it!" Amy pleaded. "Go ask him."
I shrugged and reluctantly got out of the water and went over to talk to him.
About ten minutes later I returned to the pool. "Okay, he says he'll do it. At first he said no but when I told him it was for a worthy cause he finally said yes."
"A worthy cause?" Ciara inquired.
"Well yeah—Nude Day."
"He thinks Nude Day is a worthy cause?"
"I told him any prize money we win will be donated to our favorite charity. I didn't tell him the charity is The Amy, Ciara, and Sarah Designer Clothing Fund."
We toweled off and went into the house to do our hair and makeup. There wasn't much point in putting any clothes on. So we just wrapped up in a towel. An hour later we emerged from the house all dolled up. Well, from the neck up anyway.
My father was still puttering around the backyard, taking pictures of this and that. He ignored us. I tossed my towel on the ground. Amy and Ciara did likewise.
"Daddy, I'm naked! And so is Amy and Ciara! Please take our pictures!"
"Uh . . . well . . . sure. After all, it is for charity. Very noble of you young ladies. So young but so concerned for the welfare of others."
"Whatever, Dad. But hey, we need some sort of theme for the pictures."
After thinking on this for several minutes, he suggested we do the photo shoot in the garden. Sort of a "Back to Nature" theme he expounded. Sounded good to us.
"Why don't you girls pick a flower or something," my father suggested, "and hold it in your hand."
Ciara selected a beautiful red rose and I chose a yellow tulip. Amy picked a cucumber.
"What's up with the cucumber?" Ciara asked, as she smelled the rose while Amy sucked on the end of the cucumber.
"I'm in the mood for a shucking," Amy answered lasciviously, "but the corn isn't ready so this will have to do."
