Description
The pool was kidney-shaped, in my opinion at least, and heavily-chlorinated water slopped over the sides. It was protected by a majestic gate of black iron, spiked at the top with cruel-looking blades. One could only get in if they had a key, or if someone inside let them in.
To the side of the pool but not within the gate was a luxurious building, with a clean carpet spread across the room and two green plush couches perhaps more stiff then we would have liked but still quite relaxing. There was a glass coffee table between the couches and a pool table as well a a ping-pong table was located in the back room.
There were four bathrooms--one was labeled "Girls"--one was labeled "Boys"--and the two others said in lettering that was quickly peeling off-- "Employees". Back in the "living room", where the couches were, we quickly settled into our chairs waiting expectantly for the pizza.
While we waited I observed the table. It was of a rich mahogany color and very fancy. A huge glass vase stood in the middle of the table, full of flowers.
