Mum, where are you? I think as I wake up. The only person in the world that can confort me right now. But on the other side, I have dad. I love him so much. We lost mum when I was 10. He helped me go through her death while he wasn't good himself. But this day each year I'm more afraid for him than I am for me. It's Reaping day. The 70th annual Hunger Games. What else do I have to live for? If I get reaped, dad will stay alone, and I don't want that to happen. The odds though of me getting reaped are one in a million. I mean, I've never taken tesserae so my name is only five times. Five times. It's gonna be fine.

My dad hears me crying and comes to my bed.
Dad: Morning sweetie.
Me: Morning dad. I say as I cry more.
D: Hey... What's wrong? Don't tell me you're worried? You never are.
M: Well, things change right? I mean mum was alive and fine and then she had to go to that stupid market while it was snowing and windy, just to get me a medicine. And then she had pneumonia and died!!! Why should I be sick???
D: Emily! Don't recall this now. And never imply that it's your fault again!
M: But it's true!! I say while I cry more.
D: Emily Fields! You are not responsible for anyone's death and you won't be! I don't want you to feel guilty...
M: Ok dad. I do have the best father in the whole world.
D: Now get up and get dressed so that we can be in the square on time. The sooner we leave that place, the better.

And here I am in the square waiting to go home and have supper with mu dad...
