Only Nine

Amari G •  Virginia •  14

SO I WAS ONLY 9! In the 4th grade, I asked my teacher if I could use the restroom and she said yes. When I used the bathroom there was a lot of blood in my underwear.


Quote: "I told my mom and she said "You are a very young woman, Amari.""

I didn't want to tell my teacher so I ran to the nurse and asked for a pad. I put it on and it felt soft. When I went home, I told my mom and she said "You are a very young woman, Amari."
