The Wet Pants ~ Short Stories

 

Moral of the story: Every single one of us has good and terrible days. True friends are those that assist you out when you’re having a rough day.

This story revolves around a seven-year-old kid who was lying in his seat when his pants became wet and a puddle formed at his feet. His heart nearly skipped a beat as he became concerned that his peers would see and mock him.

He was in a hurry to do something and noticed that the teacher and her student Judy were approaching him. Judy was carrying a bowl of fish. Judy slips and dumps the fishbowl in his lap as they got closer, and the youngster thinks the instructor spotted his wet pants. He pretends to be upset with Judy and rants at her while praising God for his assistance.

Judy gets blamed by everyone in the class for the boy’s wet pants. The instructor assists the boy in changing into dry clothing, and the class resumes. “You did that on purpose, didn’t you?” the boy asks Judy later that evening. Judy murmurs, “I wet my pants once as well.”
