Tonya was conflicted. On one hand, Tina seemed to be genuine in her concern. On the other...she was being pretty horrid to Leah. A devious thought crosses her mind that was unlikely to happen but too good to pass up.
"Well, you can start by making up for how you just treated her. Humble yourself, do something that you forced her to do like..." Tonya paused as she thought over the last few minutes, and the first thing Tina did came to mind, "Poop your pants in front of her."
Tina's face twisted in disgust.
"What?! Why would I...that's ridiculous!"
"You know what else is ridiculous? Forcing your stepdaughter to fully poop herself before believing her. I mean, if you made Leah do that in public, surely YOU have no problem doing the same right?"
Tina's face turned bright red, making Tonya want to burst into laughter.
"It's different. She looks like- and she's wearing-"
"Yeah, and how does that make her feel, that you think treating her like a toddler is okay? You really think she'll trust you if you aren't willing to put yourself through the same humiliation you put her through?" Tonya shrugs, "Besides, it's just a suggestion. I really don't expect you to do it, just thought that'd be the fasted way to get Leah's trust."
Tonya walked away, trying to hold back laughter while also screaming in her head. Did she really say all that? She's not a confrontational person, so the fact that she did that to a parent is insane. Then again, Tina is hardly a parent (really just a wannabe), and few things fire up Tonya quite like mistreating Leah---she half remembers breaking a boys nose in 1st grade after he flipped Leah's skirt and revealed her training pants.
She has no idea how Tina would react, but it did feel good to at least shove her terrible behavior in her face maybe a little too good). Tina and Tonya met back up with Leah again, who was looking very agitated (and a bit hurt). Tonya gave her an apologetic smile, hoping it made clear that she's still on her side. To her joy, Leah smiled back, ever so slightly. Tina, for her part, looked stiff as a board as she grabbed the cart.
"Leah, I...wish to apologize." Both teens gawked at the woman, Tonya still somehow surprised.
"Uh, for what?" Leah asked.
"I haven't been treating you very well today. Tonya told me you didn't want to tell me about your problem and I betrayed that trust. So...I'm sorry."
Nothing could quite describe the look of shock on Leah's face, like she couldn't even believe the words she just heard were real. To add to the fever dream, Tina rapidly looked around before her face burned bright red. She moved to a particularly tall shelf and...squatted.
Neither teen could understand what they were seeing, even as they could hear Tina grunting loudly. She squirmed in place, shaking her butt in a hilarious but cryptic manner; Tonya half thought it was an ancient bee dance used to communicate to a queen.
"Uh, Tina, are you al-"
Both were shut up as Tina farted, gasping loudly. She once again looked around, face redder than a tomato before shutting her eyes tight and doubling down as more farts exited. A brown spot began to appear on the back of Tina's jeans, and slowly pushed out as she grunted like a weight lifter going above their limit. Tonya and Leah were thoroughly transfixed, convinced they were transported into some bizarro dimension as the brown spot tented, and expanded into a larger and larger lumpy mess. Finally Tina let out a sigh of relief, looking exhausted from pushing out what had to be a massive bowel movement into her pants. Panting, she turned around to look at the girls, having to hold the cart to support her weight and a blush that looked to cover her whole body (most likely from exertion).
"T-there. I-I *pant* I made you mess yourself, so I *pant* messed myself. In public. In my nice jeans." She suddenly shuts her eyes tight and crosses her legs, grabbing her crouch as a loud hissing is heard.
"O-Oh no, I didn't mean to do that!" The woman lamented as she thoroughly soaked her pants, urine instantly flooding down her jeans into a spreading puddle. Tonya and Leah both turned to look at each other, if for no other reason than to affirm that there was another witness and they didn't hallucinate.
Tina stood up slowly, her confidence entirely replaced by the look of a kicked puppy looking ashamed at their accident.
"That was absolutely humiliating. Good god, the smell!" She shouted, pinching her nose.
"Tina...did you just-"
"I feel like it's obvious what I just did!" The woman snapped, justifiably feeling defensive, "I-I just wanted you to know that...I want you to feel you can trust me. I clearly have made you upset, and I want to avoid doing that in the future. Okay?"
Tonya wasn't sure if she should laugh or cry; she never would've thought Tina would be this dedicated to a dumb suggestion just to try and apologize. She turned to look at Leah, who...
