Wondering which 13" MacBook Pro model you are using ...

and

also what happened when you tried to update .... did the update begin, and fail to complete,

or maybe there was an error message that may point to the solution.

Is always a good idea to back-up everything as a first step, before updating.

If this was not where the problem is occurring:

You might want to try updating from System Preferences > Software Update if that's possible on you Mac model.

or

Apple support have an article online that may help:
