There used to be a time where I was an innocent girl. As a matter of fact, you would never know it, but I was a late bloomer. I had no idea where babies came from until I was about 10 years old. Nowadays, that’s unheard of; you would be considered a dumbass for believing that babies are made from two married people ‘k-i-s-s-i-n-g’. However, my parents were committed liars, so it isn't entirely my fault, now is it?

Anyway, I remember like it was yesterday when one of my friends named Katy, in grade four, told me that babies are conceived through sex. I was absolutely traumatized and didn’t believe one word she said at first. I did know what sex was. However, I thought that only people in dirty movies would do such a disgusting act. But then Katy said this one sentence that took my innocence away forever:

…“Your parents had sex to conceive you.”

My jaw dropped. I flat out wanted to punch Katy in the face. The audacity to accuse my mother of doing such a thing! Unfortunately, Katy was right. My parents did the dirty, filthy deed I thought only happened in cheap porn movies. As a matter of fact, they must have done it at least twice as I have a brother. Eww.

Fast forward another 4 years.
