Hello, and welcome to a girl's worst nightmare!

~

It's the first day of the month. You're at a public pool with your friends. That's when it happens. Cramps.

No, it can't be. You're not due for another week.

Nervous, you pop out of the pool and run to the bathroom, locking yourself in a stall. Pulling off your heavy swimsuit, you realize that you are, in fact, starting your period.

You have no pain killers, no change of clothes, and no pads. Then you decide you can simply take a wad of toilet paper and shove it in your suit until your parents can pick you up.

But when you reach for the toilet paper...
There is none.

Panicking, you throw your suit back on and run out of the stall, searching for paper towels. Nope, this bathroom only has the hand driers!

All other stalls are occupied. You decide you can wait for someone to come out...but that's when the blood leaks through your swimsuit.
