The Day I Turned a Class Observation into a Horror Movie

When I was in elementary school, I was a child who would get nosebleeds at the drop of a hat.

Sometimes, if I got a nosebleed after arriving at school, I would spend the first period sleeping in the infirmary. The worst possible timing was the incident where I got a nosebleed
right in the middle of a class observation. The subject that day was Japanese, and the content involved students taking turns reading the textbook aloud one by one.

Since there was quite a while before it was my turn to read, I was looking down, following along with my eyes as the other students read, when... Perhaps because I was nervous about the class observation...

Drip... drip... my nosebleed started to fall onto my Japanese textbook.

(Oh no!)

I thought, but today was a class observation. My own mother, as well as many of my friends' mothers, were watching from the back, so I was too embarrassed to say, "I have a nosebleed." Moreover, since I didn't have any tissues, I just let it drip, drip, drip onto the textbook.

After several tens of minutes passed like that, the nosebleed had pooled thickly in the gutter of the textbook.
Thinking that if I said something now, I would surely be scolded with, "Why did you stay silent until it got like this!" made it even harder to speak up.

I desperately thought about how I could somehow sneak off to the infirmary before it was my turn to read. However, there was no way to find such a method, and finally, the girl sitting next to me discovered my "blood-soaked textbook," and the situation was exposed when she screamed, "Eek!!"

The teacher also looked surprised upon seeing the blood-soaked textbook and rushed over, saying, "Baku-kun! (my name) What happened!"

I looked up and tried to answer immediately, "I have a nosebleed!" but because more blood had pooled in my mouth than I had realized, I choked violently...

"My nosebleed is... Guff!!"

From my mouth, a giant lump of nosebleed (jelly-like)flew out.

The surrounding students, witnessing that scene straight out of a horror movie, let out screams of "Eek!!" and the class observation was completely interrupted...

My mother rushed over to me in a panic, wiping my nose with a tissue while desperately apologizing to everyone around me, saying,
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry! This child has weak blood vessels and gets nosebleeds easily!"
while shouting a fact that I thought would be self-explanatory if you saw this tragedy.

That night, just as I had expected, I was thoroughly scolded by my mother...
And for the next few months until that school year ended, I was forced to take classes using that "blood-stained textbook."

Even at this age, I sometimes fail by putting off things that are hard to say...
People don't grow that easily, do they... Ah...
