The children were ushered into the large playroom that Selina had seen earlier. Assuming they had free rein, Selina went towards a pile of blocks, only to be stopped by Reina.
“Silly girl,” Reina said. She picked Selina up. “Did you forget where little ones like you go?” Reina carried Selina over to a fenced off area by a window, where the other young toddlers were already gathered.
“Paci,” Selina whined. Reina rolled her eyes.
“Fine.” She took a pacifier out of her pocket and popped it into Selina’s mouth, then set her down amongst the other toddlers. “Some people really need to learn how to wean their kids off these things. It’ll mess up their teeth.” Reina walked away.
Selina happily suckled on the pacifier for a few moments, before realizing, to her horror, that it wasn’t her pacifier. She grimaced. Not only was it disgusting to have something in her mouth that had been in some other person’s mouth, but she couldn’t just let a baby walk away with the stuff she’d worked so hard to steal!
She wanted to spit out the pacifier she was currently sucking on, but it was so soothing, and she needed to keep herself calm. Hopefully, getting her actual pacifier back would be easy enough to do. Selina scanned the playroom, still sucking on the borrowed pacifier, searching for hers. To her relief, she spotted it right away.
