AN: This is my story of how Prim felt about Katniss volunteering. Not sure if it's good, but enjoy!
Days of Worrying and Waiting
My sister volunteered. Katniss actually volunteered so I won't have to go to through the Hunger Games. I can't even imagine losing her. My older sister, my hero and my best friend. What would I become if I lost her? I wish that she hasn't volunteered. At least if I die, I won't have to mourn over Katniss. I can't think about it anymore. I think I'd die if she dies.
I hear Katniss' voice screaming that she volunteered all the time. In my nightmares and in my daydreams. Sometimes I have nightmares about my sister dying. How could I survive without her? I would scream in the middle of the night and worry all day about my sister. Everyday, Mom and I prayed all day long for Katniss. We watched the Hunger Games anxiously, always watching out for my 16 years old sister.
It was sick, seeing people suffer and eventually die. I thought that I might vomit when I see someone suffer one more. Especially if it's Katniss. I can't imagine of a world without her. I wonder, will I see her again? Every night before I go to bed, I would pray for Katniss and cry silently, wishing that I could go back in time to stop her from volunteering.
None of my friends understand why I was so depressed. They told me that I should be relieved that I wasn't Katniss, fighting for her life. But they don't understand. And they never will. It was MY SISTER up there. My sister fighting for her life. If anything happens to her, I always blame myself.
But I tried to keep everything together. I tried to hold back the tears, I really did. I know that Katniss wants me to stay strong. But it's hard. It's really hard. I can't stand it anymore, seeing her going through all this.
The Capitol thought that this was an entertainment. They thought that seeing people die was an entertainment. I couldn't believe it. Sometimes I think that these people really have no heart and they've never watched their loved ones died.
I know that this sounds horrible, but every time anyone dies, I'm just glad it's not Katniss. I waited for Katniss to come back home. I waited every day. I pray and think of her every single day. Even though people say that District 12 have no hopes, I have faith in my sister. She has to come home. She has to come home to Mom and me. To Gale. To Madge. To everyone who is waiting for her. I waited and waited.
Until one day, they announced the winner. Katniss won. And somehow, Peeta Mellark also did. Katniss Everdeen, my sister, won! She won! I was so proud of her. I can't wait to see her again. Finally, my days of crying and worrying is over. All I need to do is wait for her to arrive.
