Fourth and Final Chapter

Chapter Four: The Dog

So I’m sitting at my desk and I keep hearing them talking about me behind my back. There was a lot of gibberish then all of a sudden they would throw in “AET,” and after a while I started hearing other words that I actually knew, like “Coco’s” and “Kombini” which are little rest stops/snack places. It just so happened that there was a neighborhood Kombini right around the corner from where the school was, so I figured that they were planning a trip for me and my turd.

Soon enough they were on the phone making phone calls and a couple of minutes later the school nurse came and bid me follow, and so reluctantly I followed. We walked down the driveway, took a right and then walked further down the street (my pride was going down at the same time), then we entered the Kombini. I thought to myself, it must be in here… but it wasn’t. Sure enough, the lady behind the counter got up and started walking out the back door motioning for me to follow, and so I left the nice little school nurse behind, and continued my journey on through the portal and into the back yard.
All was well until I took my third step out of the door. A dog leapt up and started barking at me. As if I wasn’t embarrassed enough! So I ran out of the dogs reach (it was collared), and the lady continued to lead me past the barking dog and up to her own house. Then into the house we went and sure enough, to the right of the door and down the hall was the most beautiful and magnificent western toilet I had ever seen… or it should have been for what I went through to find it.
To finish off this long and dreadful story, I went, I pooped, I wiped, I flushed, and then I walked back to the Kombini, running quickly beside the dog. When I got inside, the nice nurse lady was standing in the same place that I had left her, waiting ever so patiently for me to return.

What an incredibly ODD experience! It's too bad you're not a girl. Then you could have just used the one at school and be done with it!
And frankly, I don't think I would've held out for THAT long!
