Living in a Shield World
First menstruation

FIRST MENSTRUATION

I don't think it's this fast my period's coming. I remember the doctor who examined me, saying I was going to get my period soon, but not now. I'm on a test.

Today's test day two, I was ushered into the room yesterday. And the test sheet comes again, the public test eligibility test. My stomach is cramping, because of my first period. Thankfully I was able to finish on time.

Coming home from the test, I asked Sister Jun for stomach cramp medication. He had already prepared it, the medicine was in his pocket.

In the door hanger there is already one box of pads, "It looks like this is too many sisters"....?!

"Take Hannah, free mumpung" joked Sister Jun, with a big smile.

I fell asleep skipping dinner. My door is safe, no more banging, and breaking tonight.

The third day of the test, I had breakfast with Sister Diana. She's a pretty brunette. We sat in the front row again, she said she got a message from Sister Jun that I was menstruating and was often nauseous. I have to sit near the toilet. I sat in the same place as yesterday.

Andy and Alex were sitting next to me again, this time it was Andy beside me, and who was sitting next to Sister Diana, the brunette soldier, who asked the beautiful sister Diana a lot.

I'm lazy to eat so nauseous, Andy's fragrant scent is too strong. Mother said, if later I meet a very strong fragrant man, do not tell him later he misunderstood, thinking I am his future wife.

I asked Sister Diana, "Can I eat in the room?", she replied "No, healthy people, only menstruation should eat here".

Oh my God, this beautiful sister is so fierce. I don't like eating scrambled eggs. I saw the leftover vegetables on Andy's plate, sparkling, it seemed so good.

" Hmmmm Andy, are you going to eat those vegetables?" Andy looked at me weird

"No, I don't like these vegetables, why do you ask, you want? take it?"

That's right, Andy's leftovers, they're delicious.

"You don't touch, the scrambled eggs, you can make me, I don't eat animals, almost a month, Alex took them" she whispered to me.

We exchanged food.

It's the craziest thing I've ever done, exchanging food with strangers and eating the leftovers of others I've met twice.

Sister Diana looked at my and Andy's behavior, confused...Andy greedily ate his scrambled eggs, then he gave a smashed potato to my plate which was his plate.So smashed the potato is not good, after so the food Andy so good.

I'm really crazy. Andy just smiled amusedly at my behavior.But he was indifferent and devoured the eggs, while continuing to serve Alex's babble.

I can eat, after a day of nausea. Sister Diana finished eating, I followed her, then said goodbye to Andy. Andy glanced then nodded.

Today's 3-hour math test. Luckily I was eating, so there was energy. After the test, I fell asleep, again.

At 6 pm Sister Diana knocked on the door of the room. This time I was ready for dinner. "Let's have dinner!", this beautiful sister is fierce.

I sat back in the same place, but there were no soldiers this time. I picked up another scrambled egg, and a vegetable peppers like Andy ate this morning. As a result, I vomited, I asked Sister Diana's permission to go to the room, I was dizzy.

Arriving at the room I only drank warm sweet tea and then fell asleep.

At 10pm my door was knocked again, by Sister Diana, "Prepare for the second test today".

I began to think, this test was held deliberately in conditions that are not fit.

I went to the bathroom to change the pads for a while, and changed the half shield.

At the same place, I was given another test paper, and this time it must be physics.

Sister Diana came in with a brown envelope, then handed it to me. Right I guess, about physics, it's 2 hours, until midnight.

I finished with the alarm, too,

so it's just so timely.

This room from the glass wall, at my exit, there is only Sister Diana. I wonder who's behind that glass wall over there.

On the fourth day of the test, I was accompanied by Sister Sasha. He smiled cheerfully at me, we asked each other a little bit on the way to the dining room.

I chose the meat chopped menu and sauteed paprika. Sister Sasha chose the seat first. He walked towards the seat at the middle table.

"Suster Sasha can just stay here, I like nausea, this table is closest to the toilet".

"Oh I'm sorry Hannah, Diana and Jun have told me, I forgot.

Then Sister Sasha sat in Sister Diana's position yesterday.

I want to try chopping her meat, it smells good, after I chewed for a while, my stomach was so nauseous, I ran to the toilet, Sister Sasha didn't follow me like Jun and Diana. She's cute.

Now at my desk, there's Andy and Alex, they come while I'm in the bathroom.

I sat down again looking at Sister Sasha who was eating while breathing fast, like she was angry. I want to try again to eat, but.it looks like chopped his meat into a little smaller pieces, the peppers are also shorter.

Andy didn't greet me, just busy eating, until his mouth was full. I tried again to eat chopped meat, and hmmmm why not nausea, this is so delicious. Even the orange juice is delicious. My breakfast is over, full.

"Enak Hannah?!!", chirped Andy who had been silent earlier did not speak.

"Great son of Andy, thank God I don't have to eat your leftovers". Andy smiled holding back the laughter.

" Hannah, all you eat, is the rest of my bite, even this orange juice, I drink first.Ask Sasha, she's mad I'm biting all your food".

Look at Sasha!!, Hannah is in love with me, even she can only eat my food..." Andy looks pretty familiar with Sister Sasha.

I looked towards Sister Sasha, and was so upset to see Andy's face, her laughter was so annoying.

" Sister Sasha, I'm going to go to the room first, what time is the exam?"

"Four ten" answered Sister Sasha.

"I'll go to the room first". I'm not saying goodbye to Andy, I hate hearing his explanation. I went to my room, straight into my bed.

Andy's annoying face suddenly stopped by in my memory. I hit the pillow, I set the alarm at 09:30 and then I fell asleep.

At 09:30 I got up to clean my face, changed my sanitary pad, and then changed my half shield.

At 09:55 I went alone to the exam room. I opened the door and sat quietly. Sister Sasha, who was late to pick me up, came into the room with a breath of breath like running out. He brought a brown envelope, then handed it to me.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, I left the room, didn't talk to Sister Sasha at all, I was upset. I went into the room without saying goodbye.

Sister Sasha also doesn't care about me being upset, she's just being careless.

At 4pm my door was knocked again by Sister Sasha

" Hannah, get ready for half an hour of testing".

"Yes" I replied lazily. I overslept again, changed the pads, washed my face, then changed the half shield. I'm still sleepy, filling the anatomy matter was really exhausting.

I opened the door at 16:20. Sister Sasha is outside, waiting for me. "Suster Sasha, I want coffee"

" Come...I'll drop you off to the dining room, you can pick up coffee there!".

Arriving at the dining room I asked for hot black coffee to Sister Sasha.

" I'll make it", Andy came and offered to make coffee for me,

Sister Sasha was shocked, until half jumped her body because of Andy's voice. Sister Sasha let Andy make me coffee.She tasted the coffee and then gave me the coffee glass.

"It's delicious, try it" I took it without hesitation, it's delicious, but I'm lazy to comment, because I'm still upset. Andy was confused, just shut up.

After getting the coffee I went to the exam room, but Sister Sasha said her exam was in the principal's room.

In the principal's room, there's Dr. Hosch, Emily, and Plavots.

I asked, "May I test while drinking coffee?" .They're allowing.

This time the emergency test daruratan.Test oral. They bombarded me with a lot of questions.At 17.30 tests finished.

Before I left Dr. Emily asked, "Who taught you?"

"dr Brenda" I replied. Then he let me go.

Sister Sasha waited outside, "We go straight to the dining room, I'm so hungry", I asked Sister Sasha.

Sister Sasha started the conversation,

"Hmmm Hannah, I'm sorry Hannah, I didn't know you'd be that angry because of Mr. Andy's behavior. You know, he's a serious guy, rarely joking, I don't understand why he's doing that either, I get angry, because I'm disgusted to see someone else eating the rest of the people, but he's a high-ranking man, so I let him act like that."

"I'm sorry", I replied.

Sister Sasha smiled at me. I smile back.

In the dining room there were no soldiers, I took the meat soup menu, and grilled sausages. I sat down to switch positions with Sasha, change the mood. Without Andy I could eat 3 slices of meat, and one sausage. Very glad. I take another mouthful of soup, then.huek huek I shut my mouth, run to the toilet.My body is really crazy, why just want a bite mark Andy?

I staggered towards my dining chair. I began to talk at will to Sister Sasha, "Maybe it's not just Andy's ex, try Sister Sasha you eat my soup, maybe it tastes good and not nauseous".

Sister Sasha according, then took my bowl of soup. He ate a spoon, then gave it to me again. I tried to eat it, after being swallowed I was nauseous again, this is severe!!! I'm really sick.

I asked to be escorted to the doctor, maybe my stomach is in trouble, finished eating Sister Sasha drove me to the ER. The doctor was old, he pressed my stomach, then asked me a lot of questions.

Then he asked me to do an endoscopy, "The tool is very thin and small you just need to be quiet", asked the old doctor to me.

Then it came in through my nose, it didn't feel anything, and then the doctor pulled it again.

"Miss Hannah, you're perfectly healthy, your digestion is good. Maybe because of the effects of menstruation. It's a nausea remedy, chew it before you eat".

"Thank you doctor"

Sister Sasha drove me to my room, in front of my room stood Andy. Sister Sasha chose to leave, not accompanying me to face Andy.

Andi always wears his unit sportswear, I never know his rank. "Hannah, we haven't met properly, you called Andy to me immediately, and I called Hannah". Then he extended his hand. "I'm Andromeda, commonly called Andy". My turn now was made to be shocked by his very polite behavior. I immediately welcomed her hand, "Hannah Jacklyn".

"You sure you can't have breakfast?" He spoke softly, different from yesterday.

"Come to the dining room again, I'll buy it. Alex has been brought in by a special unit, to get treatment, I always eat with Alex for almost a year, not used to eating alone" she said softly.

I don't know what to answer. I just turned my body and walked towards the dining room again...!!!.

In front of the food glass door, Andy took all the food I pointed at, I was surprised, the person who yesterday was so annoying can suddenly be very good, is not it strange.

I sat down again in the same place, a lot of soldiers eyes watching the movements of me and Andy. Maybe they asked me what my relationship with Andy was, because he had become so gentle and considerate, to me who was wearing half shield.

Andy took my spoon, ate it a little, then put it back on the plate.

"Eat the one on this spoon, so as not to get nauseous" I chuckled and sure enough one plate of food that Andy had taken for me was almost finished.

My seat was very close to Andy's arm. It smells so strong, but I'm not nauseous, I can eat.

"Hi Miss half shield!!!! , there was a male voice coming at me, the road was like a drunken stupor.

"Make me Macbirth, Major Macbirth, this is Mrs Andromeda!?" Then he laughed amusedly, then spoke again."

What kind of half shield are you wearing, sensor?!, I see you don't have to hide if you want to eat. Normally Half shield is like my sister.hiding if she wants to eat, ashamed of her face nobody can see!"

He stood up and sat down again, standing upright, but then like a tree falling down, now he stands up straight again."

Is your half shield expensive, Mrs Andromeda?"

"Good, Mr. Macbirth, you can buy it at the edge market, it's a lot there. This half shield flower picker, would bother if the meal had to hide while picking flowers cut down."

" What's official, not illegal?" he asked again while staggering.

"Official, look at this Kingdom sign" ...Macbirth advanced his head looking at the sign. But Andy got in the way, "It's Mac, buy it at the market at the edges." then he left.

Andy took his hand off my arm. "Eat again, spend it!" She's so cold.

Actually I wanted to ask if he wasn't bothered, Macbirth called me Mrs Andromeda, but it seems that he doesn't care.

Clean my plate, no noise. Andy drove me back to my room. "Tomorrow to eat together again" Andy said. I'm nodding.

Before I fell asleep, I remembered what happened to Macbirth, Alex was sick, Macbirth was also clearly sick, whether all the soldiers in the dining room were sick....Andy...?!. Is he sick too....?
