Brie wasn’t entirely sold on this new arrangement; but it seemed that Jinny wasn’t going to be completely mean to her.
“From now on, are you gonna listen to me?” Jinny tumbled the candy around in her hand.
“Mmm-hmm.” Brie took another candy.
“And why is that?” Jinny prompted.
“Because you said so.” Brie spoke before popping another candy into her mouth.
“No.” Jinny poked Brie lightly in the chest. “Because you said so.”
It began to make sense to Brie; all she really had to do was obey Jinny. If that meant getting as many candies as she was getting at the moment, it didn’t seem like such a bad trade-off.
“But to answer your question, there’s another reason for you to wear a diaper.” Jinny produced the cassette case in her other hand. “Your Dad said you might wet the bed if you watch something scary.”
Brie’s face lit up; hoping that Jinny wasn’t just teasing her.
“You wouldn’t wanna have an accident, would you?” Jinny added with a smirk.
“Can I really watch ‘dat?” Brie asked excitedly.
“Sure thing. We’ll watch it together.”
Brie bounced happily, her braids and nightshirt doing their best to follow.
“Calm down sweetie,” Jinny soothed; grabbing Brie by the middle, and trying to cover her with the nightshirt.
Brie stopped bouncing, her shirt falling loosely to her thighs. “What’s a ‘seh-mattery?’” She pointed at the video case.
“That’s ‘cemetery,’ and I think they actually spelled it wrong.” Jinny looked at the case in her hands. “A cemetery is a graveyard.”
“Oh.”
“Anyway, we just have one little thing to do, before we watch the movie.”
“What is it?” Brie looked up at Jinny.
“We gotta put the jack o’ lantern outside where people can see it.”
