Grandma's Makeover
When Vicky arrived at her grandmother's for the summer like she had every year bar one since she was a young teenager, she could immediately tell things were different this time.
It had been four years since her grandfather had passed, leaving her grandmother living alone. Grandma Nancy had soldiered through, not showing any signs of loneliness or depression at all... but the past year plus of almost total isolation must have hit her hard. And last summer because of the pandemic, Vicky had skipped her annual visit for the first time in about a decade. She'd wanted to come, but everyone, even including her grandmother, had convinced her it wouldn't be safe.
They'd always been close, Vicky far closer to her wild and crazy grandmother than to her conservative mother.
How wild you ask? Well for starters, how many grandmothers sunbathe nude in the first place, never mind doing it with their granddaughters?
Also, although it was legal in California, Vicky had been more than a little shocked during a previous summer when her grandma busted her with a joint in her mouth, because instead of staging a hissy fit about sinning like her mother would have done, she just calmly came over and took a hit from the joint. And then astonishing Vicky once again, she asked her, "What's
this
weak ass shit?" She then pulled a joint out of her purse and shared the much better quality and stronger stuff with her eighteen-year-old granddaughter, promising there'd be more where that came from.
But alas, this past year and a few months because of COVID, and from her inability to do any of the things she normally liked to do, Nancy had gotten lonely and depressed, and had even gained a fair amount of extra weight. This new and definitely not better look also surprised Vicky, since her grandma had confided in her during one of their new pastimes... summer smoking at nights... that she'd used to be a topless dancer in the seventies, and had been very popular.
Vicky had inherited her grandmother's big tits, wide hips, wider ass, and even her sass. These assets got her a lot of attention from men, especially from black men (actually from men of all races, she just preferred the black ones), but that sassy attribute also got her into trouble, since she often spoke up first and considered the consequences later, if ever.
So Vicky, who already knew something was wrong by the tone of her grandma's voice, which was a lot less peppy and more listless, as well as the obvious weight gain she'd noticed on their video calls, knew that this summer she needed to help her grandmother climb out of her funk.
But she'd had no idea how bad it was, until she arrived.
Her grandma had gained a good thirty pounds.
Nancy was miserable, and she'd even considered suicide during her past year and a quarter of isolation, feeling so alone, and having lost any hope of things ever getting better. But her spirits rocketed the moment she opened the door and saw her sweet granddaughter standing in front of her!
"V-V-Vicky!" Nancy stammered, astonished to see a relative for the first time in months, and thrilled it was her favourite granddaughter, who was her favourite family member. But then she was immediately mortified to know the sight her granddaughter was about to witness... a house that looked like a tornado had struck it, and then been ravaged by a second tornado just to be thorough.
"Grandma," Vicky said, saddened by how large her grandma had gotten as they wrapped their arms around each other.
"What are you
doing
here?" Nancy asked.
"School is out for the summer, the first year of my college completed, and I sensed that you needed me," Vicky explained. "So here I am!"
"Well, I've certainly missed you," Nancy said, having forgotten just how great it felt to be talking to someone you love face to face.
"I've missed you too," Vicky said, as she walked into the disaster of a house that had previously always been immaculate. "Oh, my," she couldn't help saying.
"Sorry, I didn't know anyone was coming by," Nancy apologized, feeling totally ashamed at her beloved granddaughter seeing her house in such a state.
Vicky, who was majoring in psychology and who'd written a research paper on the effects COVID had on women, knew exactly what had happened. "No, it's okay, Grandma," she said, "I'll help you get this place back to normal."
"I just haven't felt any urgency to clean," Nancy admitted.
"Actually, that's not surprising. It's one of the most common effects of people's isolation," Vicky said. "Many people suffer from a lack of purpose when they spend long periods of time alone."
"I suppose," Nancy said; her granddaughter was likely right. She'd continued cleaning her house as usual for the first couple months, but then she began to wonder why... what was the point? No one ever came over. So she began neglecting her regular schedule, and the longer she did that, the messier and dirtier the house became, so then just the
idea
of cleaning it exhausted her.
"It's okay, grandma," Vicky said, giving her another hug. "I'm here now, so you're not alone anymore."
"It's so good to see you," Nancy said, feeling a glimmer of happiness for the first time in many months.
"It's great to see you too," Vicky replied with feeling, kissing her grandma on the cheek.
That night they ordered in some food, chatted about Vicky's first year of college, and discussed COVID. They also shared a joint, which relaxed Nancy, who hadn't had one in months.
They ended up watching Breakfast at Tiffany's, Nancy's favourite movie, before they both went off to bed exhausted.
As Vicky tried to sleep, she resolved to do her absolute best in helping to get her grandma back to her old self.
.....
The next morning.
Vicky woke up early, gave the kitchen a thorough clean, and made breakfast for them both, tasks that were usually done by Nancy. She even figured out with the help of a google search how to operate the surprisingly confusing espresso maker.
Nancy walked into the kitchen just as the last of the bacon was frying.
"Good morning, Grandma," Vicky greeted her warmly.
"Good morning, Sweetie," Nancy smiled, finding it so strange, and yet so great, to see someone inside her house, especially her favourite granddaughter.
"You're just in time to join me for breakfast, and then we'll head out to the beach to work on our tans," Vicky announced, the sun already shining brightly on this glorious summer day,
"Thanks for making us this lovely breakfast," Nancy said as she sat down at the clean kitchen table, "but I don't think I'm up for going all the way to the beach for any sunbathing today."
Vicky had known her grandma would likely feel insecure about her weight gain, but she also knew from the courses she was taking, as well as the essay she'd written, that it was critical for her to push her grandma back in action, if only as much as going out to sunbathe, and not to allow her to stay home and sulk. So she demanded, albeit brightly, "What do you mean, Grandma? Tanning together has
always
been our thing!"
"I know, dear," she sighed, "But now that I've put on all this extra weight, I know I won't feel comfortable around anyone in a bikini."
"Nancy Margola Meyers," Vicky said, in a haughty way she'd used only once before, "Since when have you
evah
passed up a chance to show off your curvy body?"
