Haerin

Crap. Just when I started thinking that today's gonna be a great day. Oh well, this phase is normal for girls anyway.

I don't know but I really feel too lazy today. Like I don't even want to move an inch from my bed. All I want to do is to sleep for the whole day.

But I guess my wish for a long sleep won't be granted when I can hear Hyein's footsteps from outside our room. She's the only one who always wake up two hours earlier than me and will always check the room after an hour if I'm already awake, and if not, she'll wake me just to make sure that I won't lay around in my bed for the whole day.

"Good Morning Haerin!" She greeted me so loudly that I thought my eardrums are going to burst. And when did she started to call me only by my name and not with 'unnie'? Anyways, I dont care about that at all since we're already close and my tummy's cramping like hell that it's stopping me from doing anything. I've had periods before but this one's the most painful.

As I turn around to face Hyein, I then saw her wearing her school uniform. That's great, me and Danielle will be left here again and she's not noisy unlike this kid, that's why I'm positive that I can rest.

"It's my school's foundation day, I want you to come with me" and then she pulled out a ticket or something from her school bag and handed it to me. "Pleaaase?" Ugh she's showing me those puppy eyes again. "If you join me, I'll treat you to every booth at my school, sounds great right?" She looks so happy but I don't know if I can make it.

The thought of roaming around her school sure feels great but I guess I'll pass. I really have to take a rest this whole day.

"Sorry Hyein, but I'm afraid I can't accompany you" I replied. Now that look of happiness on her face earlier has started fading, turning into a frown.

"Why? Is it because you have plans with Danielle? Okay fine, I understand. I'll just go there alone" Just like what I thought, she'll sulk again like that until she get what she wants.

"I have my period" I don't really want to tell her this but she left me with no choice just so she'll leave me alone.

"Shit!" I squealed after Hyein smacked my lower abdomen with her hand. This kid really..... I'm not moving that much since it hurts and she'll just smack it like it's nothing?

"So what if you're on your period? It doesn't hurt at all"

"For you, but not for me. My tummy's cramping like crazy that I can't even stand up properly and you even hit it!" I just realized that I raised my voice at her. Gosh, how can this kid be so inconsiderate. It's starting to annoy me.

"Come on, we're both girls, periods doesn't hurt like you're thinking. Unless, you're not thinking of me as your friend anymore since you've gotten close with Danielle" The heck? Is Hyein mad at Danielle or what? How could she even think about things that even I would never think of about.

"Fine" I said in defeat. "Wait for me outside as I wash up" Their foundation day probably won't last long and I don't want to have another fight with Hyein. I'm the older one so I should act maturely.

"Thank you Haerin-unnie" she kissed my cheek before leaving our room. It's fine. I guess I won't die from some stomach cramp like this.

Half an hour later after I finished washing and dolling myself up. It's now the most difficult part for me; choosing what to wear.

A lot of people will be there and I don't want to attract a lot of attention that's why I want to wear simple clothes.

There are lots of clothes in my wardrobe but I'm still having a hard time. A set of blouse and skirt will be comfortable and beautiful at the same time but it's too windy today, I don't want to spend most of my time pulling my skirt down. Well, I have jeans here but it'll be too tight to wear and I'll have a hard time moving with it. Wearing shorts is the last thing I'd want to do.
