❝i ship it❞ - pjm

intro

so, i'm on my way to the bathroom, right?

i spot an empty stall and i'm like, okay bladder, it's your time to shine. so i start peeing and i look down at my underwear. what do i see? i see red clots of blood. i'm over here thinking like oh noes, i didn't bring my backpack or anything.

so i wait and wait for someone to walk by. to my luck, my teacher does this thing where he sends someone out to the bathroom if the designated person isn't coming back from the bathroom after a certain time limit. my time limit was 2 minutes, so after 2 minutes, i hear the clicking of shoes and a girl calling out my name.

"jiwoo? yo jeon jiwoo?"

i immediately recognize that voice and bounce excitedly in my toilet seat.

"hey homegirl somin! i'm on the flo so could you please like grab me a quick pad from the nurse or something?"
"for sure, bbg."

after i hear her walk away from the bathroom, i get a wad of toilet paper and wipe up as much blood as i can from my clothing and flushed that away. by the time i finished, somin was back with a vagina bandaid.

after i cleaned myself up and did what i needed to do, i walked over to the sink and washed my hands throughly. "thanks babes."

"no probs, jiwoo." we walked out together and to our classroom. before she opened the door, she whispered a quick sentence, "by the way, a surprise for you came while you were gone."

"the fuck are you talki– oh."
"miss jeon, please explain why you have abused the two minutes i have given you to use the restroom?"

the teacher, mr kang, asked loudly as soon as i entered. i watched somin sit in her desk peacefully as i thought about what i should say. so after i figured out what to say, i cleared my throat and got ready to project my voice.

"well, mr kang, as a girl, i have this monthly problem involving our menstrual cycle. so that issue happened earlier while i was taking a piss. i'm sorry if i made you worried. anyways, could you please explain why there is an unidentified man sitting at my desk?"

the whole class, except for somin because she's used to me being like this and the student that i didn't know because he wasn't really phased by it, was speechless. even mr kang couldn't bring himself to answer me, so somin did the job for him.

"that's new kid, park jimin. aka your new seat buddy."

oh great.
