It was about a week after my 13th birthday, and my mom had given me tickets to the circus. I was changing into nicer clothes to go, and my mom was in my room vacuuming. When I took off my shorts, I noticed the blood, and I knew that it was my period, but I threw them in the back of my closet to hide them from my mom, and pretended nothing happened.
That night, I stayed up till 3am watching videos on how to tell your mom. I was able to tell her the next afternoon, and to this day I don't know why I was so scared to tell her.
