Belldandy had nothing to worry about; she had not been nearly as late as the genie. Having lost track of time unpacking his belongings in his new apartment, as well as practicing a few new recipes, it all came down to a mad dash from one end of the city to another. He could only hope he wasn’t too late, it was awfully rude to keep everyone waiting.

“Sorry I’m late, ladies!” Genie called out once the two came into view. “I lost track of time. I hope I didn’t miss anything.” The djinn ran toward them, a cooler and umbrella tucked under one arm and large duffle bag under the other. He had decided to go with a pair of bright yellow swim trunks to match his sandals and white lifeguard singlet. Had his hands not been full he would have removed his sunglasses when he reached the two.

“Wow, looks like you’re all set up already.” He said after taking a glance around the pool. “Might I add that you two also look simply gorgeous in your swimsuits?”
