Dear Primrose,
We named her after you, Peeta and me, Primrose Rue Mellark. We call her Rose though. I couldn't take it if she was Prim. We live in my victor's house. Primrose bushes grow all over. I miss you so much. There's so much I would tell you if I could, but I can't. Peeta said I should write you letter so I'll try although I'm not good at this stuff.
I'll start with the fact it has been around 16 years since I lost you. I still have the nightmares, always will. They aren't as bad when I'm with Peeta.
Peeta. He remembers a lot, most things really. Rarely will he get stumped about something. He still has his fits of insanity but not as bad and he doesn't really hurt me when he does though. Mostly he goes off when Gale is brought up.
Gale hates Peeta so I feel like he hates me. He's not in 2 anymore. He lives on the other side of 12. Peeta says Delly talks about him a bit. Makes you wonder…
Haymitch stopped drinking. You know he really liked you? A sober Haymitch is very different post-war. He should have been a father. He acts like one to Peeta and me. He makes sure we're okay but I worry about him alone in his huge house. Peeta thinks he may be using us to make up for the family he never got to have.
I haven't heard from our mother. She's run away from me. She a ghost last I heard. She does what she needs and nothing else. It's like she lost everything. She doesn't even care one of her daughters is left. Buttercup knows though. He acts like he loves me now. I think he knows I miss you as much as he does. I'm sorry I tried to drown him. Since my first games I've been very glad that we kept him.
If you had lived I would move you in with me. I would have water fights with you in the summer; we would smell flowers in the meadow in spring, jump in leaves in fall and play in snow in the winter. You would grow up and I would cry when you got married.
Remember not matter what, I will always love you.
Your Loving Sister,
Katniss Everdeen Mellark
Dear Prim,
I miss you more than you'd think I would. When I saw how much Katniss loved you I often wished that my older brothers loved me that much. You are very lucky to have a sister like Katniss that loves you so much. She goes to your grave every week you know. She puts fresh primroses on it. Rose doesn't understand completely why her mom chokes up when she says her names is Primrose but to call her Rose. I know you used to do the same thing with Prim. I wish you could have lived to see our better world. The world we fought for. The one you died for.
Peeta Mellark
Prim,
Oh Primrose Everdeen, you would have won the games just because sponsors. You were so sweet. You know I stopped drinking because of you. Katniss said I scared you when I was drunk. It is true everyone loved-loves- you. If I had a daughter I would want her to be as wonderful as you. Sad, that's all your death was.
Haymitch Abernathy
Dear Prim,
I'm so sorry. Coin said NOTHING about the bomb being used on children much less you. I would kill myself before I let the same thing ever happen again. You have every right to hate me and you should. I would if had been me. Please forgive me though I don't disserve it. I love you as if you were my own sister and if you had never been picked maybe you would have been one day.
Please forgive me.
Your Killer,
Gale Hawthorn
