The moment Leah and Tina walked into the department store, there was a flash of light. After blinking away the after-images, Leah looked at her stepmother and gaped. Tina was dressed much more extravagantly than before, clearly wearing designer clothes and high-quality jewelry. Her makeup had been done flawlessly as well, and her hair was styled in a sophisticated manner Leah had never seen Tina do before.
As Leah stared at Tina, she felt a sudden warmth spreading through her panties. Her heart plummeted. Was she wetting herself? But she didn’t hear any liquid hitting the floor. She looked down. Her eyes boggled. The relatively mature outfit she’d been wearing moments ago had been replaced by a onesie. There was a bulge around her waist. She squeezed the bulge. When it squished, it confirmed her suspicion that she was now wearing a diaper.
“What just happened?” Tina asked, looking around curiously. An employee swooped in.
“Hello! You’ve just experienced our main attraction!” the employee chirped.
“And that main attraction would be…?” Tina prompted. The employee beamed.
“Adjusting you to the life you’re supposed to have! Well, the life you’re supposed to have, based on your appearance. Ma’am, you have the gorgeous features of a model, so you’ve been given an outfit suited for the finest women to walk the catwalk, as well as the skills necessary to do it!”
“But I’m a daycare worker,” Tina said, confused.
“Yes, but you’re far too beautiful to let those looks go to waste. So we’re letting you get a taste of what could be if you pursued modeling.” The employee turned to Leah. “And you got put in something that is much better for someone your size.”
“I not baby,” Leah protested. Her eyes widened. The employee giggled.
“Chronologically speaking, yes, you’re not a baby. But in terms of size, you certainly are! So you’ve been dressed like the baby you were meant to be, and given the skills of a baby.” The employee poked Leah’s nose playfully. “Which means that you can’t talk as well as before and will be using that diaper we gave you. All your other skills have been reduced to match, too.”
“What if I don’t want to be a model?” Tina asked, crossing her arms.
“When you check out, just let the cashier know what you would like to stay. You could keep the outfit but not the modeling skills. You could keep the modeling skills but not the outfit. You could keep both or neither. No matter which one you choose, it’s free of charge!”
“I choose, too?” Leah asked. The employee smiled at her.
“Sorry, but as a minor, your mommy will have to make the decision for you.” The employee waved at them as they walked away. “Happy shopping!”
The shopping was humiliating for Leah, who was promptly put into the seat of a shopping cart like the baby she was dressed as. She begged for Tina to put her down, only for Tina to find a pacifier clipped to the front of her onesie and pop it into Leah’s mouth. Leah sucked on the pacifier as Tina pushed the cart through the aisles. All the other customers clearly had been subjected to the store’s “main attraction”, but Leah was the only customer that had been put in a diaper.
Just as they were about to leave, Leah felt warmth spreading through her diaper again. Then, she pushed. Tears sprang to her eyes as she involuntarily evacuated her bowels into her diaper. Tina sniffed the air. She smiled at Leah.
“Someone made boom-boom!” she said sweetly to Leah. She turned the cart around, heading for the bathroom at the back of the store. “Don’t worry, mommy is very good at changing baby’s stinky diapers!”
Leah sucked on the pacifier urgently for comfort as she was brought into the bathroom and laid on the changing table. Tina continued to coo at her throughout the diaper change. Once Leah was in a clean diaper and redressed, Tina put her back into the cart and they went to the register. The same employee that had greeted them was the cashier.
“Did you enjoy your time transformed into what you were meant to be?” the employee asked. Tina nodded.
“Absolutely. In fact, I’m going to keep the outfit and skills. I think I’ll pursue a modeling career,” Tina said. The employee clapped her hands excitedly.
“That’s so great! And what about your daughter? Have you decided what she’ll keep?”
Leah’s blood ran cold as Tina looked at her thoughtfully. She could only pray that Tina wouldn’t make this permanent.
