Mia's Daddy offers her two diapers

Mia's Daddy, who had been silently observing the exchange with a hint of amusement, now spoke up. His voice was deep and reassuring, a calm presence in the midst of Anna's swirling emotions. "I think I might have just the thing to help you settle in, Anna."

He reached down beside his seat, pulling out a small bag that Anna hadn't noticed before. From it, he extracted two distinctly different diapers, laying them out on the seat for her to see. One was thin and plain, resembling the medical type one might see in a hospital. The other was much thicker, adorned with colorful building blocks spelling out 'BABY' in cheerful, bold letters.

"These are your options," he explained, his tone neutral yet friendly. "This one," he pointed to the thinner diaper, "is more discreet, easier to hide under clothes. It’s what´s avaiable on earth. But if you really want to embrace our ways, this," he gestured towards the thicker one, "is the standard for daily wear around here. It’s Mia's favorite."

Mia watched Anna's expression change as she contemplated her choices. "Take your time," Mia encouraged softly. "There’s no rush. Think about what will make you feel more comfortable, at least for now."

Anna held each diaper in her hand, feeling the weight and textures. The thin one was light, almost imperceptible. The thick one was bulky, its padding a promise of undeniable protection and a constant reminder of its presence.
