I looked down at myself and could see that I was the same old me. I looked in the mirror and saw I was still how I always looked. I turned around and swayed my butt around but there didn't seem to be anything wrong with it. I looked at myself face-on in the mirror and started cupping my left boob a bit. I rolled it around in my hand and pinched my nipple. I let out a little "Yip!" with some incredibly bubbly giggles. "Dat's stwange." I said. "I tought fo' sure I would have changed secks-soo-a-lee." I let out another "Yip!" as I heard myself speak. "What da heww?" I unconsciously made a pouty-face out of confusion. "Wait just a second." I said, "I nevew make pouty faces!" I glared at myself in the mirror as if that would do anything. "Wubbew baby buggy bumpers."
"The wain in Spain fawws mainwy on da pwain."
"How now bwown cow?"
"Hewwow?"
" A wump of wed wead, a wed wead wump."
I looked at myself in the mirror and started crying. I threw a big tantrum in my bedroom just like a toddler. "I just want to pwonounce ahw and ehw wike a nowmal pewson!"
I sat sniffling on my bed curled up in a ball sucking my thumb, hoping everything would get better. After rocking back and forth for a while I realized: I'm a baby today. I sat up and thought it through. This would explain my inability to pronounce "r" or "l" and why I broke down and cried when any normal teenager wouldn't have.
I looked down at my mouth and saw that I was still sucking my thumb. I pulled it out of my mouth knowing that I had to function as an adult today but... but I couldn't handle it. I started sniffling and eventually bawling until I put my thumb back in my mouth. "Mmm, mmm, mmm. Dat's bettew," I cooed to myself suckling at my thumb. "But I've gotta be a big girw today! I wook wike a big girw so I gotta be one!"
I marched myself over to my dresser, and picked out all pink clothes: a pink bra, a pink blouse, a pink skirt, and pink tube socks. I pulled my hair back into pigtails and I got myself ready for big girl school.
