To think mama had not thought you were a baby despite wanting a nappy. Despite the tears.
You sniffle, pulling back from mama’s hug.
“Did you —” you swallow. “Did you really think… that?” you cautiously ask.
“Yep, we sure did. We knew you weren’t a baby.”
“Both of you?”
“Yep, your mum and I.” Mama smiles sincerely at you. He words make your heart swell.
After a few moments of feeling happy, you notice mama looks thoughtful, like she’s considering something.
“Sweetheart, how would you…” Mama seems to be considering her words. “Would like to be in nappies again? Just for this trip?”
Your heart seems to freeze as two sides fight it out.
