Page 49 of Unexpectedly In Love

“No fucking way,” someone whispered.

I give my cousins my fierce glare.

Khaos walks in, followed by Kyros and Cid.

“Y-you ever clean shit before?” Cid asks and we run up the stairs into Kai’s room.

“No, but it can’t be so hard. Right?” I ask still holding Kai away from me.

We enter Kai’s room. Khaos turns on the light.

“What do you need?” Kyros asked.

“Um, I need,” I say, standing clueless. I have no idea where anything is.

“Fucking k-kidding me.” Cid moves past me and opens the cupboard doors beneath the changing table pulls out wipes, a white tub and diapers.

“You know how to change a diaper? How? When?” Khaos asks as we watch Cid set up the changing station.

“I had a lady friend years ago with a kid,” Cid replies reading the labels of the different bottles.

“How come I never heard of her?” Kyros sounds hurt.

“Put the baby down here,” Cid instructs me pointing to the changing table.

“Why don’t you change him?” I started to pass Kai to Cid.

“Because he is not my fucking kid. Place him here.”

I rest Kai on the changing table.

“Follow my instructions carefully.” Cid stands to my right. Khaos and Kyros are on my left.

“Okay, I’m ready.”

“You get the wipes; you get that diaper genie.” Cid points at Khaos and Kyros.

“What the hell is a diaper genie?” Kyros groans. It took a second, but we got it together.

Khaos has the box of wipes open and ready. Kyros is holding up the diaper genie.

“Everyone, hold your breath when the Eryx takes off the pamper.” Cid looks at me. “Ready?”

“Yes.”

“Listen carefully, Undo the dd-diaper's tabs and gently lift your baby's legs by the a-ankles, use the front half of the diaper to wipe away as much poop as possible. In 3,2,1.”

I pull the tabs of my sons’ diaper, and it falls open.

The scent of death and something that could only be from the rotting parts of hell hits us.

We all gag and moved away from the table. Kai legs kick laughing at us.

“What is she feeding him Tyrannosaurus rex meat?” Kyros backs away as he coughs in his hand.

Khaos’ face is turning purple as he begins to gag. “Oh God, oh fuck. How is he so cute and his shit smells like that.”

“I am never having kids this cured me,” Kyros chuckles.
