Chapter 9
It's the day my Mums train is scheduled to arrive today, she comes at 3:30 in the afternoon, it's currently 11. I'm really nervous because, I don't know, but I haven't seen her in 20 years. But peeta's presents soothe me.
Before I know it it's 3:25 and we are walking to the train station, its not that far from our house just through the main square.
We get there right as the train pulls in, and people start coming out a couple of people who come out stare as me. People who are visiting district 12, no one here would stare at me like that everyone at district 12 knows me.I see her. Blonde hair, blue eyes. If Prim was still alive she would probably look like a younger version of my mother. I look to peeta, who has Lotus in his arms. I have Valerian on my hip.
"Are you ready?" He asks with concern. I look away and nod an unconvincing nod. And start toward walking in the direction of my mother. As soon as she catches sight a smile comes over her face as she looks me up and down then looking at the little boy in my arms, as Peeta follows she looks at him as well and then her eyes switch between Lotus and Valerian. When I get close enough she embraces me in a hug, but not and awkward one, in between awkward and comforting, as we both pull back her eyes are swelling up with tears. And my vision blurs and I realise I am too. She strokes my cheek in a mothers like way, and we stand there staring at each other in a comforting silence, in fact the most comforting silence I have ever had with my mother for a long time. But Lotus from behind me breaks the silence.
"What's Happening mummy?" she asks. I snap back to reality.
"This is my mum, your grandma." I explain to them. they nod
"They are so beautiful Katniss. A perfect mix of you and peeta." she say looking between me and Peeta.
"It so good to see you again Mrs Everdeen." Peeta says extending his hand, but my mum pulls him into a hug.
"Thank you for taking care of her, Peeta. You can call me Amaryllis" she whispers, loud enough for me to hear. I hear a little groan and peeta pulls back, poor little Lotus was wedged between the two. Grumpy Lotus wiggles out of Peeta's grasp and come over and holds onto my leg protective almost.
"Lift me up." She says, like an order. Both Peeta and my mum chuckle
"Excuse me! What's the magic word?" I say, she sighs
"I don't have time for this mummy!" she shout loud enough for people still on the station to stare. some of them are giggling at how much she is like me.
"Pick me up! I'm tired." She says again pouting and crossing her arms trying to mimic me. I glare at her.
"I'm tired too, but I'm not complaining." I say in more of a friendly tone. She huffs. And goes to sit on a bench near the exit. I've turn to my mum to discover she is crying.
"She is so much like you." She half laughs, half cries.
I walk up to her and hug her again before pulling back and saying,
"Its cold lets go home." She nods. We walk towards the entrance. and my mum picks up Lotus and she squeals with delight, and grins Peeta's signature grin, I walk Peeta's arm wrapped around my shoulder, I have Valerian still on my hip.
My mothers right Lotus is a lot like me, with my stubbornness, but peeta's warm, comforting personality. She can walk into a room and light it up. And she has peeta's Grin for which i am glad cause when I smile it almost always looks fake, unless it is cause by my family then I really smile. I am so glad my mum will be here for christmas. It makes me feel, like I will be able to forgive her. And I will try my best to.
Thanks for reading I will be posting another one next weekend Hopefully.
