I hate my family so much! I wish, they would stop bothering me about my body! I have no idea what's wrong with it, and neither do the doctors..So how am I supposed to tell them I'm normal again?
As I found my way to the restaurant bathroom, I felt a smooth liquid run down my leg. I looked down. "HOLY FUCK-" I covered my mouth. I crept into the bathroom looking everywhere for a tissue and sat on the toilet. "Oh my god! I'm dying!!" I cried and moaned. Throbbing pain came from my pelvic. "AHH!!" I moaned and screamed. Then I heard the door...

"Samara! I heard screaming, what's wrong?" My mom jangled the stall. "Nothing mom, just dropped my phone!" I laughed nervously. "Oh, Samara. If that's all, then keep it down we're in a restaurant for gods sake!" Mom left the bathroom.
No way, no way, no way!! I pulled out my phone, and pulled up Google. I specifically searched: "What happens If you are bleeding from the pelvic, and have throbbing cramps?" Then I looked at the answers.

Period

Disease

Illness

Cures

Hallucinations

"That's all?!" I screamed. I covered my mouth quickly. That can't be all...I panicked. A period. The doctors did say I would start one, since my body is now growing normally. No that can't be! I looked down, and looked at all the symptoms of a period. They matched. "What am I supposed to do?!" Then I read it,
'If you do not have any menstrual items at the moment, use a 3 layered tissue and get some pads / or tampons at the moment'.
My mom, always wore tampons, they looked scary. So I think I'm going to get pads instead. I quickly searched up pads and found the nearest mall with them inside. "78 miles?!" I groaned..I wasn't going to make it before the tissue leaked. Then I grabbed 5 tissues and folded all 3 layered, and stuffed them in my bag. I then quickly wrapped my jacket around my waist and ran out the door back to the table, where I said my goodbyes. "Nobody can know, until the doctors or myself figure out what is happening to me!" I panicked and quickly ran my car on the highway. "Fast, and get there quicker, or slow and there by 4pm tomorrow?" I knew the obvious choice. I ran the car at full speed down the highway as I drifted at every turn.
