After Weeks of healing, And a few months for Hope to grow, Baby Hope is now 5 months old, but now, it was finally time to go home, Peeta and I thought it would be nice to pay a visit to my mother. So we were flown over to 12.
I held baby Hope in my arms the intier time.
watched her squiggle an squeal as she observed her surroundings, big grey eyes, darting around and occasionaly on my face.
We got of the hovercraft and walked over to my mothers.
I knocked on the door and my mother quickly opened it.
"KATNISS!!!" She throws her old arms around me and hugs me, "Hey ma... look who's here." I lift a slobbering Hope up to mother and She caresses Hopes cheek, and flash's warm smiles and giggling.
She helped me inside and sat me down on a sofa with Hope in my hands. "Now, time for parenting" I sigh at that, I never thought about parenting 'till now.
"Ok, you have to feed it, burp it, change its diapers,sing it to sleep, and most importantly, Making it live a full happy life!" My mother explains to me.
"I have baby supplies.." My mother trails of peering into the kitchen, "I knew you were gonna have Hope, so, I stashed a few things...just for you!" She gets up from the sofa and walks into the kitchen, a few seconds later with all kinds of stuff.
Mother explained to me how to feed it, Dress it, Burp it, Hold it, sing to it, and all the things I would encounter on Parenting.
Piece of cake! I thought in my mind
but,
I was....
terribly wrong.
Peeta, Me, and..Hope, tracked home and started sitting back and relaxing,
I put Hope in my bed and stuffed lots of pillows on the sides soo she wont fall off the bed.
I closed the door and Fell asleep in the sofa next to the fire.
I awoke with Peeta gone.
and a rotten stench in the air..
I sniff the air...
smells like my mothers cabbage soup...
ugh.
I get up and see a white note on the marble counter.
Dear Katniss,
I need to visit certain places..
You know, the ol'Baker thing, so don't worry about me I'm just out getting a few things and
I'll be back before you know it!
I love ya bunches!!!!
From Peeta,
I pick the note up and stuff it in my pocket..'
UGH! that smell is disgusting!..
where is it coming from?!
I follow the rotten stench down our white carpeted hallway...
It stops right at my door.
I open it with a loud, Creeeek!!! Cringing when a irritated baby screams..
I run over to the bed..
W.O.W The stench is even worse in here!
Baby Hope is pink in the face with wet cheeks, I pick her up and smell her,
UGH IT'S FROM HER!!!!
I rush into the bathroom and fill the tub and stick Hope in it.
I take off her diaper..
UGGGHHHHHH!!!
Her diaper is loaded, I rush into the kitchen holding it out so it doesn't touch me,
And throw it into the sink and dig into the bag of baby stuff my mother had given me,
I quickly find the diapers and put clean one on Hope.
"Ah, much better!" I smile
Hope splashes around in the tub. and I clean her though and put her in clean clothes and set her on my bed again.
Now that's done time to rest again.
CRASH!
BOOOOOM!
BANGGGGGG!
I spring awake from my current dream hearing things crash behind me.. then a startling cry and shout.
I run into the room where I see a Crying baby in a high chair with a sweaty Peeta.
Hope is wailing her head off like bloody murder "WHAT DID YOU DO!!!" I screech at Peeta, "I DON'T KN-" Suddenly a flying sippy cup zooms past Peeta's head and then crashes into the wall.
"I'm- 'I'm trying to make her stop screaming so I- am trying to- feed her!" Peeta shouts over wailing Hope, Dodging objects being thrown, "GIVE HER THE TEDDY BEAR!" I shout ducking from a bowl of squashed peas.
Peeta throws the teddy bear to Hope and she crys even more, I sigh and slouch my shoulders, but ducking in time from a furry teddy bear.
"KATNISS SING TO IT!" Peeta rolls out of the way of a bowl of cooked carrots, "NO! I'M NOT GONNA SING!" I shout, "JUST DO IT!" Peeta screeches from a impact of mashed potatoes.
I stop in my tracks.. remembering a song my father had sung to me when I would get upset.. A flashing scene of My father and I, in a meadow and I had scraped my knee on a rock and I was crying.. looking into his, Smiling face through my tears...
Hush my child....
Don't cry....
Hush my child..
You'll be alright..
Hush my child..
And listen to the birds sing...
Hush my child...
And see what a smile will bring...
Hush my child...
and the sun will shine...
Hush my child.....
And the world Will be kind...
Hush my child...
and keep your head held high....
Just...Hush my child..
And you'll be alright...
There no longer is a wailing in the air..
just dead silent..
The birds...
stopping to listen....
I look at Peeta,
"Beautiful Katniss...just...Beautiful" He Smiles...
We leave the room and Sigh in relief and crash on the sofas...
I watch the fire until, suddenly Peeta remarks...
"Aunt Hecta is coming tomorrow"
WHATTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
