Chapter #5Breakfast in Bed by: Unknown The three found themselves wearing skimpy lingerie that hugged their enhanced bodies perfectly, plus high-heeled shoes on their feet. Each noticed that the other two were now wearing heavy makeup.
"There we go," said Barry. "Now, why don't you three take the day off? You can start with a nice breakfast."
Three breakfast-in-bed trays appeared on the bed, where the girls were sitting. Each was practically overflowing with pancakes, bacon, sausage, eggs, and more.
Samantha looked down at the food, then back up at her husband. "Uh..."

Now Samantha sat up, as did Laura and Becky. Barry, still in his white suit, walked in from the left side of the screen and stood at the podium.
