Matchmaker

A young girl sat on her wooden swing . Her blonde hair hung partially lose , only tried back by a blue ribbon so not to get in her eyes. On her lap lay a leather bond book. The gold letters read The Magicians Daughter . Swinging ever so slightly her eyes only focused on the book open on her lap.

A light haired boy came strolling towards her , hands in pockets without a care in the world. His bare feet dirtied by the constant wear by the grey eyed boy. " Sophie , you wouldn't happen to have a gift for Pa this Fathers Day would you?" asked Melson.

" Yes, Melson" sighed Sophie, " You haven't got a gift have you" eyes still focused on the neatly drawn picture. Feeling sorry for her younger brother Sophie made a suggestion " Well I promised Ma that I would go to town and collect some food for the Fathers day dinner , why don't you come with me." Melson's face light up at the news. " Oh thankyou Sophie, I'll go get my shoes and I'll even carry the shopping." Running off to gather his shoes, Sophie rose from her comfortable seat with her book , shaking her head.

The road to the town was dust , that seemed to bounce up when a person walked in summer but in Autumn the only danger was being snowed on by the brightly coloured leaves. The town of distract 12 was a town from a dream. Cobble stone roads lead to the town centre where brick stores and offices lined the main square. Trees evenly spaced added splashes of green while wild flower danced at their feet.

Sophie walked to the town square entering the grocers own by Mrs Melkin. Inside the grocers was a large room full of selves . Each self carried a different food. The smells of fresh fruit and vegetables filled the nostrils as it mixed with a wooden smell. Mrs Melkin gave a warm smile to the two Abernathys .

Giving the list to Dothan , Mrs Milkins son , who rushed around like a bee to fill bags with what was on the small paper list. As Dothan was just about finished the door swang open to revel Mrs Hitcken. Mrs Hitcken was a middle aged women with wrinkles that made it appear that she frowned all the time, which she actually did. Her hat was covered in rich feathers from wild birds and her sharp pointed nose couldn't help but snoop into everyone else's business. To make matters worse her name suited her perfectly as she fancied herself the matchmaker of Distract 12.

Sophie glanced at Dothan in a desperate plea to hurry with the rest of the items. It was not that she did not like Mrs Hitckins it was that Mrs Hitckins did not like her! The women seemed to thrive off Sophie's discomfort. " Ah young Miss Sophie , How are you today?" rang the shrill voice of Mrs Hitckins.

" Quite well thankyou Mrs Hitckins , I would hate to be rude but I believe Dothan has finished with our order." At this Dothan rushed over to Sophie , in all his kindness moving to Mrs Hitckins as soon as he had placed the bag into Sophie's hands. Moving to the door , Mrs Hitckins unwelcomed voice called " Oh Miss Sophie , I wish you would try harder , you have such a pretty face and you waste it. How will you marry if you do not try." Before Sophie could comment the voice of a young boy intervened .

" Well Mrs Hitckins , Sophie's a bit young to be thinking about getting married and all . She's only 15! Any way Pa says she's can do what ever she wants, and Sophie wants to be a journalist. So she don't need to get married ." with that Melson tugged his sisters hand and they left the grocers.

" Thankyou Melson"

After arriving at Mr Penth's store Melson decided the best gift for his Pa would be a new hammer , as he had heard Haymitch speak about the need for a new hammer. With a smile and a kind word Mr Penth handed Melson the hammer as Sophie gave goodbye hugs to the Penth's younger daughters Julia and Glow .

Walking home Sophie sensed an unease in her brothers tread. ' Is anything wrong Melson."

Melson's face seemed to be trying to mask his worry. " you won't be getting married will you?" Sophie didn't know what to say. She never really had wanted to marry but it seemed every one expected her to because she was pretty , much to her dismay. Shaking her head Sophie simply answered. " I think not , I if would marry the man must be as great and honourable as Pa and I have not found one as of yet."

With this Melson seemed satisfied as brother and sister walked sown the path.
