"Mommy, I have to pee," said Sandra. They had left their apartment 30 minutes ago. Mom said, "Honey, didn't you pee before we left home?" Sandra said no, because she didn't have to. Mom asked her if she could wait a few minutes. "How many minutes is 'a few'?" Sandra asked. Mom said a few was just a couple. Sandra said, "A couple is two. I can wait two minutes." They continued walking in midtown Manhattan. "Mommy! I can't wait any longer," Sandra groaned. Mom said, "Just try to hold it, honey. There's a Starbucks around the corner." They entered the Starbucks. Luckily, the restroom was empty. Mom waited outside the restroom for Sandra to finish. Sandra finished. "Do you feel better now?" Mom asked. Sandra said yes. "That bathroom was so clean," she said. "I'm going to use the bathroom at Starbucks all the time when I grow up."
