this happened when i was still back home. so we were pretty poor, like i had one dress only poor, and only got to wash it in the rain and had to be naked while it dried. but anyway, i remember meeting my cousins for the first time. so later that day my cousin was taking a bath, i sneak where her stuff is, and i come across some talcum powder.
i'd never seen anything like it before, so i'm all in awe, it smelled so good, so i just opened it up all the way and just doused my entire body in talcum powder. so my cousin gets out of the bath, seems me white as a ghost and says "did you use my powder." i look her dead in the eyes and say "no!" she's like "i know you're lying, it's all over your hair and face." still lying i say, "no, that's just dust." so she hauls back and slaps me in the face
and i was pissed, so i go outside, get a kinda big rock, come back in, call her name and i lunge back and threw the rock at her with all the strength my 8yr old body had. she starts crying and holding her eye. i thought she was faking and then i see the blood and hear my grandmother coming. i just took off running.
my granny was on my ass tho, she chased me for like a good mile before i got tired and she beat my ass with a broom, broke it in two actually. and ever since then my cousin has had a scar on the side of her left eye. but she's never slapped me since, so i think she got the message lol
