NOTE: these are not my words

"We strolled down the hall and came to the bathrooms. I headed for the girls'. Steven followed me. I paused. 'You're coming in? It's the girls bathroom'

"'I have to pee too,' said Steven.

"'So go in the guys' bathroom.'

"'But we're having a conversation!'

"I hovered by the sinks. 'Seriously, go away. '

"'Oh, please, Annabeth. Like nobody's heard you pee before.'

"'Steven.'

"'What? I thought we were friends.'

"'Just because we're friends doesn't mean we need to be pee sisters,' I said.

"'Pee sisters! Pee sisters!' Steven sang.

"He went into a stall, the door swinging free behind him. A few seconds later, I heard voluminous splashing.

"'Come on, Annabeth. Pee with me. '

"I opened my mouth to scold him, but instead I shrugged and went into a stall myself. Steven talked the whole time.

"'You know that unisex bathrooms are the new thing. In fifty years, our grandchildren are going to think we're so old fashioned because we grew up with segregated toilets.'

"I started talking too, mostly to cover up the sound.

"'There will be pee riots,' I said. 'The gender signs will be ripped from the bathroom doors and burned in public squares.'

"'Exactly!' said Steven.

"'Thousands were arrested in the great ore riots of 2024,' I said in my best news-announcer voice. 'But in the referendums of 2025, the bathroom suffrage was achieved at last.'

"We joined at the sinks to wash our hands.

"'Pee sisters?' I said as we exited the bathroom.

"Steven made a cockeyed salute. 'Pee sisters forever,' he said."

All of that was from A Sense If The Infinite by Hilary T. Smith.
Very good book I highly recommend it.

That is the best part of any book I have ever read. I laughed so hard I almost peed.

ENJOY!!
