Leah’s bladder has been begging for release for a while. In her panic, Leah opts to kill two birds with one stone. There’s a soft hiss. Tonya wrinkles her nose.
“Did you just…?”
“I peepee,” Leah announces, feigning a jubilant tone. She sounds like any young child proud of her bodily functions.
“Okay. Gross. Well, let’s get you to an adult so you can get changed.” Tonya takes Leah’s hand and brings her over to the adults. “Hailey needs a new diaper.”
“Actually, Hailey wears training pants during the day,” Tina corrects. “She wears diapers only at night.”
“Oh. Then, I guess she needs new training pants,” Tonya says. Tina chuckles.
“Good thing I remembered to bring plenty.” She pulls a pair of training pants and some wipes out of her purse. “Do you ladies mind if I change her right now? I think someone’s in the bathroom.”
“Go for it,” Mrs. Prince says. To Leah’s horror, Tina removes her skirt, then pulls down her training pants and instructs her to step out of them. Blushing furiously, Leah allows Tina to wipe her down, then put fresh training pants on. When she’s successfully changed, Mrs. Prince brings Leah inside for cake.
