Camp Sissy Curls (Second Summer)--part58
It was just before two, when the shuttle bus pulled up to the nursery to drop me and Penny off.
And a group of eight was waiting outside, to board the bus. Six pathetic, sobbing, little baby girl toddlers; paired off and holding hands. Bernice and Betty were supervising them.
The driver pulled open the door and Bernice dashed in, as Penny and I stood up to exit.
"Penny....Stephie", and she caught her breath, "I need you two to do me a big favor!"
"What Miss Baldwin?" Penny asked.
"Ms Roberts wants the new incoming Sugar Plum and Buttercup babies to be paraded around at the Mall this afternoon with the M.O.M.M.Y. group---their weekly, Sunday promenade." And Bernice gulped for a breath again. "She wants to further punish them with public humiliation!" And she sighed and wiped her brow. "It was a real rush for me and Betty to get them all ready in time."
"I don't follow, Miss Baldwin." Penny replied.
"Stephie can explain to you about the incoming babies and the M.O.M.M.Y. group, Penny." She answered. "What I need from the two of you is---go with them and help Betty supervise! I gotta stay here at camp."
"Why not Lisa and Chrissy?" I argued.
"They can't go either! They got duties with the rest of their cabins here." Bernice said. "I really need you two to help me out. Betty can't do it by herself."
"Sure Miss Baldwin, we'll be glad to." Penny exclaimed.
"Penny!!!" I grumbled.
Penny looked at me and scolded. "Stephanie Crandall....Miss Baldwin's done a ton of nice, kind things for you!!! It's time for you to return the favor!"
As always, Penny was right. And I gulped and bit the bullet and replied. "Okay Bernice....Penny's right."
"Thanks girls." She smiled. "You're both a real peach!"
Betty and the whimpering, pitiful, baby half dozen boarded the bus. I recognized two of the six---Billie Jean/Bill and Nellie/Neil, from Sugar Plum. The remaining four had to be from Buttercup cabin.
As we drove for the Mall, I explained to Penny about the new, incoming babies and M.O.M.M.Y.
The bus soon pulled into the Mall and dropped us all off in a parking lot near the main entrance, as I'd told the driver. Outside, Betty reached into the large tote she had brought along and pulled out six baby reins.
"This will keep the little sissy babies in tow!" She said to me and Penny, as she handed us each two reins. "Get 'em in them please. And we'll each take charge of two!"
With the babies reined, I said to Penny and Betty, "I'll take Billie Jean and Nellie, you two can pair up with the Buttercup boys!"
"Who put you in charge, sissyboy!!!" Betty snarled indignantly. "You're no better than they are!!!"
"Well, actually he is....at least now, anyhow Betty!" Penny jumped to my defense. "Besides, he's done this 'Mommy thing' himself before. Let him lead."
Betty groaned, but conceded.
We each took rein of our two "baby girls" and walked them in to the main atrium of the Mall, where M.O.M.M.Y. had met last summer.
But the sissy group wasn't there. Instead, some local TV station was broadcasting what appeared to be some sort of a live, talk show kind of thing.
"We better steer clear of that!!!" Betty quickly warned. "Get us to 'Mommy', sissyboy!"
We all hurried off. And it took a little while, until we managed to catch up with "Mommy". And the "baby girl half dozen" seemed somewhat relieved when we did. Safety in numbers, probably. In our search for "Mommy", they'd experienced a barrage of taunting and teasing and ridicule and laughter---their first real dose of truly PUBLIC, sissybaby humiliation. And I felt badly for them, but at least it wasn't directed at me. I was girl after all, just like Penny and Betty. Well....not quite actually. I wasn't as pretty as Penny!!! But Betty.....well....no competition there!
God, I gotta get back to being a boy soon, I thought---as I thought more about what I had just "thought".
The "Mommy" group welcomed us with open arms. I gladly let Betty take charge of the introductions and explanation about the "baby girls" being from Sissy Curls. I wanted to stay in the background as best I could. And no one recognized me from last summer, at least. I looked quite different now.
But I recognized some familiar faces. A few mothers and their sissy sons from last summer. And a few other faces, that caused me to quickly bury my face---Mrs. Lee and Jacqueline/Jackson and Mrs. Donaldson and Tammy/Timmy and little sister.
Timmy was unchanged from Mass, and his little sister's birthday party, for that matter. I remembered that Mrs. Donaldson, or little sister, had said it was on Saturday. But Jackson was resplendent in his Southern Belle outfit once more. I wondered if he might still have the cotillion ahead of him, sometime tonight.
The sissy wagon train got back on the trail. Sissyboys, sissyboy/girls, sissybaby boys, sissybaby boy/girls---the whole realm of sissydom!
Babies, like our six, toddled along, or were pushed in strollers. The rest just humiliatingly pranced and sashayed. Jackson hand to hold the front of his floorlength Southern Belle gown up a little in one hand, to make any progress. He used his other hand to twirl his parasol over his shoulder.
Of course, all the sissies suffered all manner of humiliation and embarrassment from the taunting and laughter of passersby. But, that was "Mommy's" intent. And Ms Roberts' too, for that matter. At least, it wasn't aimed at me, for a change.
I managed to not be recognized by the Donaldsons and the Lees, not that it really would have mattered.
"SissyTrek" ended, as we eventually neared the main atrium again.
And I ventured to ask some mother nearby me, "what's that all about?" And I pointed ahead.
"Oh, that's some local talk show. New this summer." She replied. "They broadcast live from the Mall every Sunday afternoon. We keep clear of them!"
Betty and Penny and I, and our babies, kept clear of them again, as we exited the Mall for the shuttle back to camp.
We had to pull down all the windows around us in the bus. Several of our charges had wet and pooped their diapers during our little trip.
Back at camp in the nursery, Bernice thanked Betty, and me and Penny particularly, for helping out with the Mall trip. Bernice said that I could stay as "teenage Stephie" for the rest of the night. And she asked me to show the babies the "cleanup drill" for rediapering. And I was glad to obilge her. She was a "peach" after all, to use her words.
We all just managed to make last call for dinner in the cafeteria. Penny stayed to eat with me. We sat at a table by ourselves. The babies sat in six highchairs on the cafeteria stage.
Penny and I watched the evening movie in the rec center together, and it was time for her to head back to Sunnyvale.
"I'll walk you back to camp Penny." I said.
"I'd like that Steph!" She smiled.
As we neared the end of the trail back to Sunnyvale, Penny stopped us and looked around.
"Things went fine today sweetheart!" And she put her arms around my neck and looked, adoringly, into my eyes. "I love you Stephen!" And she gave me a long, slow French kiss.
"God....I love you too Penny!!!"
"See ya soon Stephen!" And she was gone.
