During the 116th Hunger Games
District Twelve
Shouna is still exhausted.
She has been working for a long time in her father´s shop, and she still feels exhausted. She doesn´t know how will she rest, but will.
Somehow. She needs to do it. If not, how will she continue working tomorrow?
She arrives home, and is able to see her mother as she opens the door.
"Oh, Shouna good luck you are here. Help me to clean the house, will you?"
"Yes, mom" She cleans and she cleans, and night time arrives shortly after finishing.
She goes outside her home without waking up anyone and goes to the Victor´s Village.
Someone is waiting for her there.
She knocks the door, and Hans opens up. He is casually dressed and his hair is messy. He would be a good boyfriend candidate if it wasn´t due to A) Shouna is asexual and B) Nothing else.
"I received your call. What happened?" Shouna asks him, and then she sees it. The rifle next to the stairs. "Can you tell me what´s up, Hans?"
He looks at her and just says.
"I did something bad. Something really bad."
"Can I come in?"
She walks into the house and as usual, it still amazes her all the beautiful things he has. A lot more than any merchant class citizen in Twelve, even the mayor and their family.
And then, Hans tells her everything. The murders he had to commit to keep himself safe, the one he did now, and his secret.
His dirty, ugly secret.
"It´s okay" she says, even though it will never be okay.
Hans cries and cries, and that´s how they spend their night.
Mourning for their own loss.
