"Hello" I say to Mr Mellark faking a smile.
"Hello Darcy, like always?" he asks me.
"Yes, please" I say. I always bought the same and Mr Mellark got used to it.
While Mr Mellark goes to get bread I catch a glimpse of Peeta - his son. I get along with him. We are in the same class and a couple of months ago I realized that he is watching me. Always. He was watching me since I moved to District 12 when I was nine. I actually pity him for that. He is a nice, handsome guy who could have any girl but instead he is just watching me all the time. Actually I really like him .. maybe have a crush on him but I promised myself to never let anyone near me and never trust anyone. I make everyone trust me with my fake smiles and my fake past but me myself never trust anyone.
"Here you go" Mr Mellark says.
"Thank you" ..fake smile. I go out of the only bakery of District 12 without paying. I never have to pay because everyone knows and loves my family.
16 years ago
All windows except for one were closed. My mother just gave birth to me. She was lying on a big bed with me in her arms. My dad was sitting next to us kissing her forehead as my uncle Drew came in. I've always loved my uncle Drew the most. He had dirty blonde hair and blue - grey eyes just like me. Actually we are the only ones in the family with dirty blonde hair, blue - grey eyes and a tanned skin. My dad had golden locks and light blue eyes while my mum had dark brown hair and green eyes. They were both pale.
"I've never excepted such a beautiful baby from my brother." my uncle laughed.
"No one did" my dad said. "What are we going to call her"
"Darcy Adriana" my mother said. Adriana was the name of my uncles' wife who had died in the Hunger Games.
My family was happy. They were laughing .. already planning my future. None of them thought that I was going to end up this way. Not even for a second. They were laughing and having fun. None of them realizing that some jealous people were standing at the open window watching them.
