Chapter 34: Frustrated

Chapter 34

Katniss P.O.V.

These two months fly bye so fast. We don't miss a lot of school since we have a teacher with us, and everything. So between the long train rides while we're stuck on the train, we study and we practice for our concerts.

I don't complain though, because this tour is actually so much fun.

I really really like Maysilee, she's like the mother I never had, and now they told me that she is my mothers cousin. She and her twin sister is daughters to my grandpas brother, and her sister have a daughter my age, and her name is Madge Undersee, and she's Delly's best friend. Life is really on my side right? I mean my enemy's best friend is my second cousin.

God, I'm so angry. And now I'm a little annoyed with Glimmer and Marvel as well, because they knew this, they must have known it, they knew my part of the family they come from, I never did before now, and it's first now I get to know that my enemy's beat friend is my second cousin. Why is everyone keeping secrets from me all the freaking time? I don't get that.

But I'm kind of upset with myself as well right now. I mean now when I know, I can see how much alike Madge and Maysilee are. Maysilee and her twin are copies, I saw a picture of them, and I couldn't see any difference between them. Made is so much alike them it's crazy. So I'm stupid not to have figured it out myself when I first saw Maysilee.

But I'm the most mad at my mother still. I haven't seen her in like eight months now. I've met Plutarch, and of course Prim, Plutarch is the one dropping Prim of with me and stuff like that. Before this tour I figured maybe it's time to forgive her, but now I've changed my mind again, I'm not gonna forgive her anytime soon. Maybe not at all. I've lost all my respect for that woman.

"Why didn't Marvel and Glimmer tell me?" I ask. "Why did you wait until now to tell me this? We've been on the same train for two months now and you chose now to tell me this?"

"I didn't know how to tell you, I'm so sorry and Marvel and Glimmer ... Well as soon as they realized I'm back and I was going to be on your tour they called me, the told me that they haven't told you yet, because they didn't know how to, and if you figured it out you would hate them", Maysilee says. "They just want you to be happy and they didn't want you to hate them, Marvel is really protective of you, you know".

I sigh.

"I know, I know, and I wouldn't hate them, I'm just disappoint at them for not telling me", I say. "They've had almost the whole year to tell me, and we've talked in the phone everyday this past two months and they still didn't tell me, so of course I'm upset, but I'm mostly disappointed".

Peeta takes my hand. I guess he's like the only one I'm not upset with as it is right now. And grandma, she didn't know that Madge goes to the same school with me. But I am upset with Haymitch, he could've told me, he's Madge teacher as well, and her uncle, I mean seriously. No one told me so upset I'm upset with everyone.

"Katniss we're..." Haymitch starts but I stand up and interrupt him.

"No forget it, I'm just not a kind of person people tell the truth to", I say. "Because everyone just keeps on lying to me, it's bad enough that my one mother lies don't do anything but to lie to me, I don't need the few people I actually like lie to me as well, I haven't spoken to my mom for like eight months, do you want the same to happen between us?"

"No!" Maysilee says. "Katniss it's not like that, when you're mother did what she did, she thought about herself, when we did what we did, Marvel, Glimmer, Haymitch and I, we did it because we care about you and didn't want to make you upset, that's a difference don't you think?"
