A wild swimming pool appears!

Ha, I missed this! We're actually putting in a proper pool next year when we have the renovations done but a pool is eye-wateringly expensive - we're going to have to get the pre-fabricated shell dropped into the back yard by helicopter because there's no access for a pool of the dimensions we want through the front of the house. On top of this, a crap one costs $50k and we don't want a crap one.

Jeez, now I'm depressed and remember why posting about the $150 pool we bought from The Warehouse seemed like a good idea :)

"Daddy?" she asks.

"Yes, darling?"

"Where's mummy gone?"

"I ... I think the Olympic sized, ceramic-tiled swimming pool ate her," I manage, unsure.

"Did she go on holiday?" she asks, head cocked to one side.

"Yes, I suppose she did," I reply (DISAPPEAR HERE DISAPPEAR HERE)

"Why didn't she tell us she was going?" she asks again.

"I don't know, darling. I don't know what happened. I think the swimming pool -"

"Did it speak to her?" she interupts, "Show her? Show her the room? Did it talk again?"

"I don't ... what do you mean 'again'?" I ask, confused, hysteria building.

"I have to find her daddy. She'll be in the room."

"What do you mean 'again', darling?" I repeat. "What does that mean?"

"I need to go swimming for mummy now," she says and she dives into the pool (Olympic-sized and ceramic-tiled).

"God speed," I mutter before passing out once more.
 
I'm a little bit lost after that last post.

Some of the sentences sounded like you almost accidentally the whole thing.
 
"Daddy, are you awake?" A voice, her voice. Daughter.

I splutter, cough. "Yes," I manage, "I'm awake."

"Watch," she says.

"Watch what?" I demand, suddenly angry.

"I'm going to find mummy now. The room is in the brown building. Don't you see?" She claps her hands. Blue and white.

I don't know how we got here, I think, and I'm scared and want to go home.

There is a picture I have in my mind and it looks exactly like this.
