Chapter one ( blood)
Tina Tina!!!!!!!, mom called.
I could hear her but I was so tired that I couldn't reply,every part of my body aches,my waist was just like it added thousands of weight, everything changed in my body,I haven't felt like this before,so I sat there crying. Big bro heard me crying and stepped outside,I prefer calling Henry big bro because he was much older than I.
why are are you crying Tinna he asked,he knew how to call my name in a coddling way the most,I started at him for sometime,finally I spoke all my body aches bro,I was the third born amongst the seven kids my mom gave birth to and I could say I was the most childish amongst them ,I always acted like the last born.(Father gave me a native name Adaeze which was later changed to Nneoma so sometimes he refers to me as Nne the short form of my name).He cuddled me and gave a reassuring smile that it's all gonna be fine.
it was 6:30 in the evening when my mom came to my room ,she said she hasn't seen me outside since noon,I told her I wasn't feeling strong,she said sorry.she opened the door to leave when she asked "have you taken anything sweetheart " she wasn't fond of calling me sweetheart tho,I smiled no mom I'm not hungry I told her ,she looked at me ,I guess she was about saying something else but she said incase u need anything just tell me she walked out.I lay down covered my self and was about to sleep when I remembered that I haven't prayed,I said short prayer and went to bed.I thought I could have a nice sleep but it didn't go that way,I kept on turning from left to right because I was uncomfortable ,my night was something else,I had to look for my headset so I could play music with it .I slept off listening to music.
The sun rays was much in the room,I saw the light in my dream and I followed it out then I found out it was the sun ,I sat on the bed but wasn't comfortable my body was somehow,I felt irritated I had to take off the blanket ,stretched my leg when I felt pains again in my abdominal parts,I lifted my legs when I saw red things I said what's this when did I get injured,I spread my legs and noticed it was coming from my vaginal ,I could hold up my fear, curiosity ,I screamed " blood, mommy ,big bro ,daddy everyone come I'm scared" I was still crying and screaming wen my mom came in , followed by big bro,my mom saw me in a scared mood ,she asked what's it I pointed at my cloth,she looked down and looked at me ,she said it's gonna be alright babe it's nothing much,Big bro was terrified so he asked my mom if it's how menstrual looks like and she said yh,he held my hand with pity in his eyes ,I was still sobbing when my mom said I should go and freshen up,she took my stained clothes and bedspreads to wash.she fixed my pad to my pants ,I headed straight to the bathroom to refreshen .
I muttered slowly why must blood come out,is this how periods are fuck this,I don't wanna get stained again and my blood has wasted,would I go for blood check up or would I go to take blood or injection for the blood to stop. ,awwwwn it's so tough down here pointing at my pelvis and waist😩
when I came out I was shy so I hid in the cupboard ( everyone thinks I'm immature because i always hides in the cupboard but no,I was just getting over what happened earlier) mom came back to check on me but she didn't find me until she opened the cupboard, seeing me closing my eyes she dragged me out to massage my spines when I told her I felt alright , strong and better.
I told to shop me how she fixed the pad which she did for me.What a sweet mom 🥰.I hugged her after that before she asked do u prefer eating together or in your room , I choose my room tho.
