hard to hide

How it started

I saw his yellow hair while walking on the Distric 12's streets. He looked at me, that's what i thought. But of course he was looking at Katniss, like always. And she didn't pay attention.

It was friday evening. Me and Catnip went outside our district. Our hunting was illegal, but we couldn't let our families die. I killed few squirrels, it wasn't much but better than nothing. I wanted to stay there longer, but she said we have to go.

We sold some animals on the Hob and then we went to our own homes.

Before I had fallen asleep i was thinking about the Baker's son. His yellow hair. His blue eyes. How did i fall in love with him?

I remember when i saw him for the first time. He was 13 years old and i was 15. He was fighting with friends. He won. He had a lot of strength. His wet locks of hair were flying into his eyes. I started to like him since this day.

Nobody did know. Even Katniss didn't. It was my secret.
