Elsie's POV ✨
I groaned as the pain shot through my abdomen, jolting me awake from a restless sleep. Nausea washed over me, and I stumbled out of bed, rushing to the bathroom to empty the contents of my stomach. It was that time of the month again, and my body was reminding me with all its might.
Feeling weak and drained, I returned to bed, curling up under the covers. The cramps intensified, radiating through my lower abdomen and causing me to wince in pain. I closed my eyes, hoping to find some relief, but it seemed that my body had other plans.
Just as I settled back into bed, my phone rang, revealing Pamela's name on the caller ID. I reached for it, mustering the strength to answer.
"Hey, Pamela," I greeted, my voice strained from the discomfort.
"Elsie! We're back in New Jersey!" Pamela's voice rang with excitement. "I've missed you and Little Gabrielle so much. Where are you? I want to come see you both."
