It was my 13th birthday and I was all excited and ready with positive glow. As I was taking bath, I saw something red on the floor. I assumed something in the water had spilled from the bucket. And then I discovered that I was urinating blood.
But later, mom made it clear that this is menstruation. Though I was a bit aware of it, I was never ready for it. That was the worst birthday ever where cramps grabbed more of my attention than any presents!!
