It was the following morning and Kisaiya had just woken up. Her aunt was working today and she was glad to have some peace. She had received a text from Chloe making sure that she was okay. She was, she was fine. She just wanted to move on now. She didn't want to have to speak about it again. True, she felt a bit disgusting and messy just now but she just wanted to keep it to herself.
She remembered that she had showered the night before but still she felt dirty. She wanted to have another shower. She decided not to wash her hair as she did it last night. Once she was ready she walked into the living room. She planned to have a lazy day. Switching on the TV, she turned to Netflix and found a new series to watch. She texted Chloe back telling her she was fine and thanking her for yesterday. Then she noticed a text from Mia.
Mia was almost two years older than Kisaiya but she was nice. Kisaiya knew that she lived with Donna but the woman was not her mum. She didn't really question anything as she didn't know the girl enough and she wasn't that nosy. Kisaiya was used to just getting on with things and asking questions. She assumed that Donna had spoken to Mia and asked her to get in contact with Kisaiya.
Mia had asked if they wanted to hang out soon. Kisaiya replied saying that would be good and that she didn't have any plans for the rest of the week. She hadn't done anything this holiday. Ange hadn't planned to have Kisaiya here meaning that she hadn't gotten any time off work. Kisaiya was used to fending for herself. She had found out that the library had many activities on and she enjoyed spending time there. She had started going swimming as well so that was keeping her busy.
Kisaiya received a reply from Mia asking if she wanted to hang out today. Kisaiya didn't really want to leave the house but she did invite the girl around. Mia responded saying that sounded nice and she'd come around after lunch.
Kisaiya spent the rest of the morning watching TV before Mia came around at 2 o'clock. She let the girl in and they hung out in the living room.
"How are you finding it with your aunt?" Mia asked and Kisaiya shrugged.
"It's fine, better than it was with my mum" Kisaiya said "Do you like living with Donna?"
Mia nodded.
"Yeah but she can be a bit overbearing at times" Mia said and Kisaiya laughed.
"Ange is like that too" Kisaiya said.
"Oh Donna went crazy because she didn't want me to have a boyfriend. She thought I'd just sleep with him" Mia said and Kisaiya laughed.
"I haven't had to speak to Ange about that yet but at least she's had Chloe. She just wants to speak to me about growing up stuff all the time" Kisaiya complained and Mia laughed.
"It must be hard because it's a difficult time and she wants to be there for you" Mia said and Kisaiya nodded.
"It's annoying though. Sometimes I just don't want to speak about it" Kisaiya said.
"I know what that's like but I hope you do know that you can speak to Ange and you can speak to me too. I know I'm a bit older than you but I have been through it and well I'm still going through it" Mia said and Kisaiya smiled and nodded. She felt better now.
They hung out for a bit longer before Mia received a text from Donna telling her to come home. The woman was outside the house waiting for her.
"Do you want to come around to mine on Monday? We can hang out and then you can stay for dinner?" Mia asked and Kisaiya nodded. That sounded good.
"I'd like that" She said smiling. Mia smiled back before leaving. She made herself dinner before watching TV again.
Ange arrived home just after 9 o'clock. It had been a long day and she hadn't seen her niece all day. She smiled as she walked into the house and noticed the girl engaged on what was on the TV. She was desperate to join her but knew she needed to get her makeup off first. If she didn't do it now, she never would.
Already in her comfortable clothes, she walked into the main bathroom and grabbed a makeup wipe. She took the makeup off her face and opened the bin to throw the wipe in. She had to take a double look at the bin as she had expected it to be empty but she noticed sanitary pads wrapping. That was unusual. She knew that it definitely wasn't hers and Chloe had been the only other female in the house. She only come for one evening and normal used tampons anyway.
She walked back into the living room and paused the TV.
"Oi, I was watching that" Kisaiya complained.
"Sit up" Ange said softly. Kisaiya looked at her aunt confused but did as was asked.
"Have you started your periods?" Ange asked softly.
"Did Chloe tell you? She promised that she wouldn't" Kisaiya said defensive.
"Hey, no Chloe didn't tell me" Ange said trying to calm the girl down.
"Come on, it's okay. Calm down" She said to the girl holding the girl's shoulders.
"How did you find out then?" Kisaiya asked wiping the tears which had sneaked down her face.
"I was putting a makeup wipe in the bin and I saw but that really don't matter now. I know and I want you to know you can speak to me" Ange said. Kisaiya nodded.
"I thought we had made that clear before?" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded.
"I know. I just panicked. I couldn't even tell Chloe and then I did and she said I should tell you but it took me so much to tell Chloe. I just thought that if I told you then you and Chloe would speak about it behind my back" Kisaiya said starting to cry now.
"Hey, don't cry. Me and Chloe honestly don't speak about you behind your back. I can promise you that" Ange said pulling the girl into her arms.
"I should have told you" Kisaiya said.
"Let's forget about that for now and concentrate on you" Ange said. "I'm just really glad that you told Chloe"
She held the girl until she had calmed down before speaking to her.
"So how are feeling?" Ange asked.
"I feel fine, it's just like a lot of blood" Kisaiya said blushing and Ange nodded.
"Our family is like that but if it gets too bad just tell me" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded.
"Remember you can always speak to me about this" Ange said "Where did you put the pads? I'll get you more and you can keep it in the bathroom if it's easier?"
"In my underwear drawer but I'll move them to the bathroom" Kisaiya said and Ange nodded.
"If you want anything else just tell me. Remember this is a normal conversation. Each time you are on your period just let me know so I can get you supplies" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded.
They spoke about a bit longer before snuggling up on the sofa. As embarrassed as Kisaiya was she was so relieved that her aunt knew now. It just took off so much pressure. Ange had texted Chloe to tell her that she now knew, and Chloe was so relieved. She did get a bit of a hard time for Ange for not telling her but Chloe had promised the girl. Again Ange just said that she was glad that the girl had at least told Chloe.
Ange put her phone done and snuggled up with her niece.
"Who were you texting?" Kisaiya said biting her lip. She didn't want to be nosy but she wanted to see if Ange had been speaking about her.
"Just Chloe" Ange said honestly.
"Did you tell her you know" Kisaiya asked and Ange nodded.
"Did she say anything else?" Kisaiya asked and Ange shook her head.
"Why is there anything else?" Ange asked and Kisaiya shook her head.
"No, I was just scared that you were both speaking about me" Kisaiya said and Ange shook her head.
"Honestly, we don't speak about you" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded. She felt a bit better.
Hope this is okay :) Any ideas as to what you want to happen with the whole Chloe/Evan issue? DO you want Kisaiya involved?
