Just do it.” Surprisingly, Fred complies, turning red again. “Now what, Fred?”
Full of shame, “I took my bathing suit off.”
“Good for you!”
“It felt OK until you came back.”
“Freddy spaghetti! Sex videos I’ve tried everything to get him to love me.”
“That’s quite a surprise to me but I think I understand. I usually swim naked or in my undies. Please tell me what’s wrong.”
Breaking down in tears, “I’m jealous as hell!” Jeff quickly jumps back into the pool, putting his arm around Fred. Please tell me what’s wrong.”
Breaking down in tears, “I’m jealous as hell!” Jeff quickly jumps back into the pool, putting his arm around Fred. If you start feeling OK about your body, you’ll probably get yourself a girlfriend.”
“Yeah, right!”
“That’s what it took for me!”
“No way!”
“For sure!”
“How could you not feel good about your perfect body!”
“One kid’s trash is another kid’s treasure.”
Fred gives Jeff a hug, “Thanks, you’re way cool. … I didn’t think he would dare. So are you ready to get naked?”
“No way!”
“It’s a great way to feel better about your body. Could I borrow your tongue, oh great grundle licker?”
Jeff finds himself walking face to face with this local linebacker, hugging him, and softly saying, “God will meet all your needs.” Jeff continues home without another word said.
