So my friend was walking with me to go get my other friend. We picked her up and started walking to Starbucks. I was feeling really sick. So when we got there one friend stayed outside with the dogs and another ordered with me. I went to the bathroom because I thought I was going to throw up. I pulled my pants down and the blood was like really dark. I knew that it was blood, I just didn't know that it would look like that.
I didn't really know what to do so I sat there for at least 20 minutes. I made a makeshift pad and got my drink. I sat at the table, my friend ordered and I thought how am I going to tell them and my mom and literally anyone ever?
We walked our friend back and then went home but I didn't tell my mom until the next day because she asked me if there was anything that I was stressed about. I just started laughing because I didn't know what to do. I didn’t say anything besides "ima ima w-" in between laughing. My mom thought I was crazy but she eventually guessed it.
