The Throne


"Sure, I can babysit my seven-year-old niece." 

"Thanks, Sis." Pedro grinned, "I'll pick her up by 9 p.m."

The evening was going well until Sarah needed to use the potty.

I took her to the bathroom. She stood there with a dazed look.  I beckoned her to sit on the potty; she squealed and placed her fingers on her parted lips, then moved back n forth. 

Perplexed, I left her alone and stood outside. Time ticked away. 

I peeped in to find that she was seated on the floor and playing peek-a-boo with her reflection on the gold-plated toilet.

  In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story that glorifies a toilet.  Go where the prompt leads!fff

Ha! Somewhere between Narcissus and Midas, this girl. I am content with porcelain.

I find a golden pooping throne more strange than an outhouse! I like your humorous take on the prompt, Ruchira!
