The Moon Flower
Lily, a curious 12-year-old, seeks to understand the mysterious concept of menstruation through a tale told by her mother about the Moon Flower and the Moon Goddesses.
Lily burst into her mom's room, eager to play. She stopped when she saw her mom resting. " - Why are you so tired, Mom?" Lily asked. Her mom smiled gently and said, " - I'm on my period, dear." Curious, Lily wanted to know more about what a period was.
Lily's mother began to tell her about the Moon Flower, a magical blossom that bloomed once a month. " - The Moon Goddesses take care of it," her mom explained. " - But why only once a month?" Lily asked, puzzled. Her mom nodded, saying, " - There's a special reason for that."
Lily was fascinated by the idea of the Moon Flower and wanted to learn more. However, her mom was too tired to continue the story. " - Can't we talk more tomorrow?" her mom suggested. Disappointed, Lily sighed. " - But I want to know now!" she insisted.
Feeling impatient, Lily decided to ask her older sister for answers. But her sister was busy with homework and couldn't help. " - Ask Mom later," her sister said distractedly. Lily felt like giving up. She wondered if she'd ever understand the Moon Flower.
Just when Lily was about to lose hope, her mom called her back. " - I have the energy now," her mom said warmly. She explained how the Moon Flower was like a girl's period, blossoming and resting in a cycle. " - It's a sign of growing up," her mom added with a smile.
Lily finally understood the connection between the Moon Flower and her mom's tiredness. " - So it's okay to feel tired sometimes?" Lily asked. Her mom nodded, " - Yes, and it's a part of becoming wise." Lily felt wiser and grateful for her mother's gentle explanation.
