This morning, I wake even before Arachne arrives. Instead of having an early breakfast on the day of the interviews, I decide to spar against thin air. Enobaria calls me to breakfast today, but she only does so because she doesn't want to be yelled at by Arachne.
After a quick breakfast of toast and fruit preserves, I'm whisked away by my prep team. First, they do the same thing they did to me before the Tribute Parade. Then, they spend a few hours drawing designs on my skin, doing my hair and makeup, and painting my nails. I'm already tired after the first hour of the beautifying process. My stylist comes in with a dress, but it's covered. After forcing me to close my eyes, they put it on me, along with a pair of strappy sandals. The dress is really light, I think.
"Open," one of them instructs.
I open my eyes and decide I look fierce.
