I was thirteen years old, and it wasn't the end of the world. I was reading manga, went to the bathroom, and the spot was there. I was so excited. I'd been waiting to get my period for almost two years, and my mom had made sure I was always prepared. The only part that was rather embarrassing was that it happened while I was at my dad's house. I can't remember if I actually had to ask him to buy me pads or not, but either way it was a little embarrassing.
