The 60th games were one of the worst for me. I felt awful when I reaped Maiya. She was 18, and a young man ran from the side lines holding a baby. He begged for someone to volunteer for her, but no-one did. Her partner was taken away by peacekeepers and I saw them saying goodbye. Hugging and crying, whilst the baby held onto its mother for the first time. And then I reaped the boy Emerson. He promised Maiya that he would protect her and get her home to her child. On the 5th, there were 11 people left and Emerson was found when he was collecting water. He was tortured until he died. And then, on the 9th day. Maiya died of starvation. The boy from 6, Titus, found her, just before the cannon went off. He cut off her small fingers and ate them. Haymitch bandaged her hands as we took them home. Maiyas boyfriend and her baby found me when we arrived back in 12. He said he hated it, but he didn't blame me. He introduced me to his daughter Aaliyah Maiya. She would never know her mum. He made me promise to never reap her ever. And then he might forgive it. I tried my hardest not to reap her. But maybe one day I wouldn,t be able to help it.
Maiya means Mother
Emerson means Brave/Powerful
