I was cuddling puppy Rosé and she was very happy with me. I am sure that she will be the best dog ever! Mom and dad were about to take me to my first day at school. There I will learn English, Math and other things. I want to learn how to write like mom does. She is the best writer of Panem. Just like dad is the best fighter I ever seen.

When we arrived at school, mom said to have fun and make good friends.
- Sophia. If you have some issues, ask your teacher to give me a message.
- Nothing will happen to me mom. I am strong like daddy!
- Not yet, Sophia, but you will become a great fighter. Don't forget to wash your hands before eating your sandwich and your apple juice, and brush your teeth after lunch. Okay? We need to see this smile very bright! - I smiled to mom and she smiled back.

I got inside the class and my teacher was my aunt Julia. What a coincidence! Well, she said to me that she will treat me like any of her students, so if I don't go well on exams she will let mom know. I met new people! Also, I had a great friend from District 4, his name is Jin, and he is asian just like me. Uncle Ludi and auntie Annie always brings him on holidays.
When I returned home, my dad got me on the outside.
- Hey, Sophia! How was your first day at school?
- Dad, aunt Julia will be my English teacher! And I learned the alphabet today, from a to...?
- Z. You can read this book I brought for you, Sophia! - It was not so large but it was a way of teaching us some words from our language. I kissed dad's cheek and we returned home. Mom was with something on her hand.
- Lewis... I am pregnant again.
- Oh, Fernanda! That's awesome!
- I hope that this time we'll have a boy to protect Sophia from the bad guys!
- Congratulations! - Uncle Simu was also there! I like when he takes me to Panemland and gives me cotton candy.
- And if it's a boy, what name will you give to him?
- Can I call him Anthony? To honor my late dad.
- That's a good idea.
- Mom, dad, what happened? - I asked then both. I saw mom crying and dad hugging her.
- Sophia, my dear. You will have a little brother!
- Oh, nice! I will take care of him with you, mom!
- Of course! And you will play with him and learn martial arts at grandpa's dojo. Right?
- Right. But I don't understand. Why I only have one grandpa? My friends of school have two grandpas.
- Sophia. Your other grandpa, my dad, became a star before I even met your daddy.
- Oh. Is he a star? Which one?
- The first one when you look at the sky in your bedroom's window.
- Okay, mom. Now I need to read this book dad gave me.
- Sophia, change your clothes because you will wear them tomorrow! - I heard mom say, and I did what she asked me to. I took my uniform off, kept it into my bed as I was dressing up with an old tee from dad. I started to read... And when the night came up, the window was open. I started to stare... I called mom.
- MOM! Get over here!
- What's wrong Sophia? - Mom came up with dad as well.
- Can you see grandpa? That huge star up there? - I pointed at the star and mom started to smile for me.
- Yeah! That's my dad. Hi, dad! - I saw her waving hands to the star. - I hope that he will show up everyday so you can talk to him!
- Sophia, grandpa said that you need to sleep. Tomorrow you will have to go to school, remember? - Mom said.
- Okay, mom. And dad. I love you.
- I love you too, baby girl. - Daddy gave me a hug and kissed my cheeks. Mom brought me to bed and I was so happy that I finally met my another grandpa. I fell asleep and tomorrow I will tell my friends that I have two grandpa's.
I hope mom and dad are okay if I talk to him sometimes.

The End.
