"Jackson Elliot!"
"Nathaniel Daniels."
"Tyler Davison."
"Jordan Watts."
"Elijah Carter."
None of us got to see our family after the reaping. They said due to my act with the peacekeeper, it was a punishment to all of us. Now I'm a target.
All the girls were lead to a pink train that pulls up in a smooth fashion.
We single file up and head into the first train car following Justine.
She introduces the first room, the lofting room. There are two large couches made of a soft white fluffy material, with red velvet love-seat couches. There are glass tables and a large HD TV sits around several pictures of James Snow and his other 3 fathers. They all look same. White hair, michivious smile.
She then has us enter the dining room with various tables piled with food. I start to drool.
White tables with platters that raise higher than from the base of the plate.
The first table is a meat table. Steaks, Roast, Pork, Lamb, Chicken, Horse, Frog, Fish and other meats I don't even recognize.
The fruit table is packed with a colorful variety of fresh fruit. Strawberries, oranges, blackberries, raspberries, kiwi, grapes, cantalope, watermelon, apples, bananas, huckleberries (it's not even huckleberry season!!) and many others. My eyes wander off to a far more interesting table.
Desserts. Cake, Brownies, cookies, cupcakes, custards, cookie-dough, donuts, cinnamon rolls, and a chocolate fondue machine for the fruit.
All the girls have stopped and have started to jump at the food to eat, but Justine tells us not yet.
Justine shows all the girls their rooms, and now it's just me and Taite. Good thing are room are by each others.
When we get to Taites room she squeals with delight and stares around the room just like the other girls do. I'm not allowed to look. Justine tells her to shower, dress, and come to the dining room for dinner at 7.
We walk to the neighboring room and she opens the door. My eyes open wide. A white postered bed stands in the center with pink and white comforter as we'll as pillows. The walls are pink and the floor is a white soft rug. The kind you just want to fall on.
Justine tells me to be ready at 7 like Taite.
She shuts the door behind me and I decide to enjoy this luxury why I can. Life is too short to sit around and mope.
I hop in the shower and the faucet of the shower gives me several options. I choose a Flowery soap that reminds me of home. When I get out I stand on a plate and a whoosh of wind goes up through my hair, drying it instantly.
I dress in pattern leggings that are blue, pink, green. I put on a pink shirt and hoop earrings. I curl my hair feeling fancy almost, ALMOST forgetting about the games. I finish with Combat boots and walk out of the room at 6:59.
