Puberty by AfricanPrincess105

At night, the older sisters stayed up all night and usually talked about boys. They talked about some things that were not making sense. Their younger sister was just going through the early stages of puberty and would eavesdrop at every conversation. The process for her became hard, a comedy, dramatic and a journey of exploration as well as experimenting. ************* This is a true to life tale, of what most girls experience during the time they hit puberty. The sex education is never just enough and will never be enough but it becomes a complex bunch of curiosity.
