Step-Brother to Step-Baby – Chapter 7
Alison was calm and composed as she explained her request. She spoke with a gentle but confident tone as she encouraged Mike to drink the juice that she had prepared for him.
“Drink up Mikey, you have not touched your juice.”
“I’m not thirsty.”
“Well you need to drink something. And you made a fuss yesterday about wanting me to buy it for you. Your sisters have finished their drinks so I am sure you can too.”
“I don’t want it.”
Rosie provocatively commented, “Mikey, you need to drink up if you want to be a big and strong boy.”
He replied abruptly with a cold and threatening tone, “I am warning you Rosie.”
Alison intervened to calm the situation. She knew that she had to build goodwill and trust with Mikey and that it would help if she stood up for him whenever his sisters teased him. If she could win his trust, it would be easier to take control and get him to become the submissive boy that she desired.
“That’s enough Rosie, no more teasing please. I want you to be nice to your brother. Now Mikey, I’m going to count to 3 otherwise I will put it in a bottle and you can take it to bed with you…. 1, 2….”
Mikey released that Alison was not bluffing and decided to drink the juice.
“Fine, I will drink the juice,” he replied, looking down at the floor.
He felt so embarrassed that he couldn’t look at anyone right now, he wanted to run to his bedroom and lock the door shut but he knew that would be a bad move in the circumstances, and Sally had the key.
It was really difficult for Mike to swallow his pride and give into the demands but he knew that he had to bide his time and that it would be fruitless or argue with Alison more tonight.
He reluctantly picked up the cup of juice that Alison had given him. He was aware that he wouldn’t be able to use the bathroom until the morning and seemed reluctant to drink too much. He sipped some of the juice to appease the request before he placed the cup back on the table.
Orange juice was one of his favorite drinks but it tasted funny tonight for some reason.
“Thank you for drinking your juice Mikey. And, as you listened so well and did what you were asked, I will extend your bedtime by an extra fifteen minutes.”
Alison was continuing to speak with Mikey like a toddler. The offer of a reward to reinforce his positive behavior was a technique that she had read about in a book. While associated with young children, the author was adamant that it was just as effective on older children and men, if applied correctly.
As a result of what she had read, Alison wanted to make the whole situation seem totally normal and to subtly reward positive behavior which was actually more embarrassing for Mikey because it was making him feel like a toddler.
Although it was early days, Alison was happy at how things had gone so far and felt that her tactics were already starting to pay dividends because Mikey was showing signs of being more compliant. Her desire to turn him into a meek sissy who respected women was on track and she was now confident that she could achieve her objective.
The decision to use bedtime as a reward was a deliberate choice. Mikey’s bedtime had been the subject of several arguments and he had often woken the girls late at night playing games with his friends online. While she expected it to be a difficult battle to win, she knew that it was pivotal.
Eventually she wanted him to be in bed by 9pm every night but that would be achieved gradually. At this point, it was important to get some small wins and by giving him extra time before bed, she was making him know that she was setting the rules and she would decide if and when he would be going to bed.
She was pleased that Mikey had not protested about her bedtime remark. She had expected a big argument but was pleasantly surprised that he had not responded. In fact, he actually wanted to go to bed tonight, partly because he was exhausted but also to escape the girls and have some time to work out what he was going to do next.
As Alison began clearing the table, she noticed that his cup remained half full. While he wanted to limit his liquid intake, she was determined to make him drink as much as possible knowing that it would make Mikey more likely to wake up with a wet nappy which would be important to her plan to turn him into a sissy who was reliant on nappies.
“Mikey, I need you to drink up please. I want to clear up and go to bed but I won’t throw away juice that you told me you liked.”
Mikey desperately tried to protest with her.
“I do like it but it tastes funny and I really don’t want anymore before bed in case… ”
Alison interrupted him mid sentence and responded decisively.
“Don’t be silly, it probably tastes funny because you’re so worried about wetting the bed that you have made yourself dehydrated. Are you worried about having an accident? Now you’re wearing nappies again, it doesn’t matter if you have a slip up so you can drink what you want.”
Her comments made Mikey feel very small. She was making it seem like it was an inevitability that he would wet his nappies. It didn’t help that the girls were laughing as their Mum talked so openly about Mikey’s issue.
He thought for a few moments about how to reply and decided that he wanted to make a defiant stand against Alison. He didn’t want to wet his nappy and knew he would, if he was forced to drink the remaining juice. Plus he didn’t even want it so why should he drink it?
“I don’t want to wear a nappy and I don’t want the drink either,” he replied defiantly.
“Ok, well I am not throwing it away so I will put it into a bottle for you and you can take it to bed.”
Mikey hesitated over what to do as walked towards the other end of the kitchen and opened one of the cupboard doors. He didn’t think she was being serious, he knew that she was a bit crazy but surely she wouldn’t actually give him a baby’s bottle.
He soon realised that she was not bluffing. The girls snickered as their Mum walked back to the table with an oversized bottle.
“That’s so cute Mum, perhaps Mikey would prefer milk in his bottle.”
“Rosie, I have warned you. Stop teasing him.”
Mikey remained in shock. The nappy was bad enough and then he was given the dummy and now she was trying to get him to drink out of a baby’s bottle. What the hell was going on?
After a few moments of reflection, he decided to give in.
He had experienced enough humiliation for one evening and reasoned that he would probably wet his nappy anyway so it would only make the situation worse if he ended up having to drink from a bottle. It would set a precedent which he didn’t want to do. On reflection, the lesser of two evils was to drink the juice.
“Ok ok, I will drink it.”
“Good boy”, Alison replied as she smiled at him.
While Mikey might have avoided the bottle on this occasion, he was resigned to the fact that it would only be a matter of time before the threat of it arose again…
