Olivia has a diaper on. She might as well use it. Without really thinking about the repercussions of this decision, Olivia squats where she is standing and begins to push. It’s not as easy as she expected, and she ends up grunting with effort. In between grunts, Olivia explains everything that has happened to her today.
“Hmm. Okay,” Kimberly says once Olivia finishes her story. Olivia hasn’t finished messing herself, however. She continues to grunt, forcefully pushing a large log into her diaper. “We need to get that ring. Luckily, I think I know the guy that you said took the ring. His name is Mark. He’s a complete loser, but we go to the same school. I think I should be able to sweet talk my way into getting that ring.”
“That would be great,” Olivia says. She grunts one last time. Finished, she stands up with a sigh. Her diaper reeks and sags visibly under her. Kimberly giggles. “What?”
“Olivia, you’re supposed to be a grown man. But you just messed yourself and didn’t even realize it!”
“No, I knew what I was doing,” Olivia says quickly. Kimberly’s laughter gets louder.
“Wait, you knew you were messing yourself? Did you decide to do that?”
“…Yes,” Olivia mumbles, turning red. Kimberly covers her mouth to muffle her now incredibly loud laughter. “Look, I-”
“-am a toddler,” Kimberly finishes for her. “And toddlers will poop their diapers if asking to go to the potty will inconvenience them. Don’t worry, I know how this works. I’ve babysat before.” Kimberly gets off the bench and takes Olivia’s hand. “Come on. We’ll go inside, get you a new diaper, and I’ll get that ring from Mark.”
Olivia allows herself to be led into the store by Kimberly, who makes a beeline for the baby and toddler section. Kimberly promptly selects a package of diapers, goes up front to purchase them, and then takes Olivia outside to be changed. Olivia blushes furiously as Kimberly removes her messy diaper, wipes her down, and tapes on the fresh one.
“Uh, hey, Kimberly,” a voice says. Kimberly and Olivia look over. It’s Mark, the employee that took the ring. He smiles weakly at Kimberly. “How- how are you doing?”
“Great!” Kimberly chirps. She picks Olivia back up and sets her on her feet. “Olivia, I’m going to talk to Mark for a bit. Why don’t you go over and play in the sandbox?”
“Okay,” Olivia mumbles. She toddles away from Kimberly and Mark. As she walks, she feels that her movement is more restricted than before. Kimberly must have put on a thicker diaper. The thickness of her diaper isn’t her main concern right now, however, so Olivia puts it on the backburner.
She goes over to the sandbox and sits in it, keeping an eye on Kimberly and Mark while she pretends to play. After about ten minutes, Mark goes back into the store and Kimberly joins Olivia at the sandbox. Olivia lets out a yelp of surprise as Kimberly sticks a finger down the back of her diaper.
“Dry!” Kimberly announces. She picks Olivia up. “Okay, so, I talked to Mark about the ring.”
“And?” Olivia asks eagerly.
