My mother was not at home when I found a red stain on my underwear. I was scared and didn’t know what was happening with my body. I called my mother and asked what to do now. She told me about pads. It was the first time I used a pad ever.
After three days had passed, my mother came home and I was still on my period. She hugged me and said "you are brave, my love. You are now superwoman."
