Delilah hopped around her room, trying to spot her school shorts. It had been end of year assembly the night before and Delilah finally caught the attention of the popular group, they invited her to sit with them and Delilah had been in a daze ever since.
When Delilah spotted the navy blue shorts draped over the top of her mirror she quickly ran towards them, starting to pull them up before she paused, what are those?
5 red streaks had made themselves evident on Delilahs hips, "What on earth? Already? "
Delilah pulled her shorts up and dashed towards her bathroom in search of coconut oil, Delilahs sister had told her that girls get stretch marks when they hit puberty, she also told Delilah that putting coconut oil on them regularly helps remove them. When Delilah pushed her hands in the jar of coconut oil and ran the cream over her hips she let out a cry, she didn't want to grow up and she didn't want to get all the ugly side affects of getting older.
