One day on the bus my friend was looking in my purse and found a wallet and she wanted to look inside. Well then she did and found my pads. My friend is a year older than me. She was like I am older than you and i still didnt get my period yet. So then the next day on the bus i was looking in her purse and i saw some pads in her purse. The she was like I just go my period. I was like how do you know and she was like because i just had a cramp. Then she lifts up her shirt half way and shows me that she put her pad on her stomach. lol
