Chapter Fifteen

I was sleeping peacefully when I heard a shriek that immediately woke me without a second thought. It came from Kittty's room.

I shot out of bed, "Kitty!" I called and I ran out my room and as quickly as I could go to here. I was at her door ready to open it but she already did it. She saw me and she looked horrified, she immediately threw herself at me. She's shaking. I was startled at first because she never is affectionate but I hug her back. "Hey, what's wrong?" I ask calmly when my heart is actually jumping out of my chest.

"I think I'm dying... I'm not dead, am I?" She was crying now, clutching at my back just hoping that I was real and not a dream.

Now I'm freaking out, I pull her away from me so I can stare into her eyes. She refused to meet my gaze, "What are you talking—" but before I could finish she points to her bed. And it took all my strength to not laugh at my little sister, at least the fear I felt a second ago has now disappeared. I shook her once, her head wobbled twice, "Kitty, our Dad is an OBGYN... why on earth do you think you're dying?" I was giving her a serious expression now.

Then she straightened in my arms, as it finally hit her that she was being dramatic for nothing. Now her face has turned bright red as she recalled what she did two seconds ago, it doesn't help that I was now keeping my face straight so she wouldn't see that I was laughing at her internally. She frowns, "Stop it."

But I couldn't a smile left my lips and I hugged her, I was a proud big sister. "Kitty! You're officially a woman! I can't believe it. I didn't miss it! I'm here for this."

"Get off of me!" she cried out angrily and pushes me away from her or tries to anyway because I was holding on to her tightly. She finally gave up and just kept her hands to her sides she was grumbling clean profanities under her breath.

I finally let her go, but my hands were still on her arms. "Like seriously, you should have had biology class by now and understand that it's expected to happen when you're a prepubescent."

She opens her mouth to speak, no totally embarrassed. Then she groans, "Well, I heard stories from Anna and Krista... theirs wasn't that much!" she refused to look at her bed. There was a big circular stain, a sign that our baby sister isn't a baby anymore.

I bit my lip. Trying to remember when I found out about the gift that Mother Nature gave me. It was definitely not that much... it even took me two days to finally ask Chris about it because it was just spots. "It's different for others... but Kitty—"

Then she backs off because I was about to hug her again, "Touch me again and I am going to pummel you!"

I shake my head in disbelief. I cannot believe my sister just threatened to hurt me.

"Are you just going to stand there and patronize me or are you going to help me?" She said as she crossed her arms across her chest.

I scratch the back of my head, "I used Margot's last pad from four days ago." Remembering that I was supposed to replace them. "We can check Trina's."

When we did, Trina didn't have some but only liners. That will do for now, I was about to explain to Kitty how to put it on when she snatched it from me.

"I'm not an idiot." She snaps at me, then she stalks off to our bathroom.

I sighed. This kid I swear... But I understand though, it's stressful around these times. It was easy for me and Margot because we were only two years apart. With Kitty, she probably feels little around me when I'm only trying to be helpful.
