It’s so close. My mind drifts off, remembering everything that has happened within the previous weeks: the Reaping and how a twelve year old girl was chosen. How I couldn’t stop the words ‘I volunteer’ from escaping my lips when I saw the waterfalls pouring out of her eyes. How she looked me directly in the eyes and simply asked me why. How I responded with ‘Because this shouldn’t be allowed to happen.’ How she hugged me tight, refusing to let go even when the Peacekeepers yanked her away.
