Peeta POV
She is beautiful; I wish I could meet her someday.. Uff I know it's impossible. She is from the highest class and I'm just a poor little rat. I can't stop thinking about her. She left with a man, a handsome man; I hope they are family, maybe cousins. If not, I doubt I could compete with him. What am I thinking; even without him there my chances to even talk to her are very, very poor.
"Hey Peeta!" Tresh calls in a high tone, causing me to fall out of my thoughts.
"Huh" I sigh
. "Man you were totally lost, she had quite an effect on you" he says laughing and moving his head from side to side.
I just smile, shrug and continue with my drawing. The old man and the little girl are still, almost in the same position as when I started to draw them. They are looking happily at the dolphins, the girl is pointing at them, they talk, but I can't quite catch what they are saying. My two new friends are chatting; I don't really care about what.
After a few minutes I look at my drawing, lift up the art pad and smile, deciding it is finished.
Katniss POV (at dinner)
I sat at the table, not quite prepared to eat dinner if you ask. Our other guests also sat and stated chatting. What am I doing here? Gale was laughing hard; my mom looked at him with admiration. I move my head down, stare blankly at my plate, with the fork on my right hand. I can't here, well distinguish the sounds around y he I only hear babbling. I suddenly feel my stomach weird, having a big pressure in it, affecting my lungs. I move my left hand and place it soft in my stomach. I am my whole life as if I'd already lived it, endless parties, yachts and polo matches; always the same narrow people, always the same mindless chatter. I feel like I am standing at a great precipice, with no one to pull me back, no one who cared or even notice.
The dinner is finally finished. I grab my purse and stand quickly, wanting to run out. "Kat!" my mother yells. "Katniss!" Gale says. Gratefully I'm close to the exit door of the room, so I open it softly and before getting out I glance back to the table, they (Mom and Gale) are not looking at me anymore. They are laughing and talking with other people. Do they really care about me?
On my way to my room, people greets me, I just nod and smile. Ugh finally I'm in the room. "Katniss are you ok?" Prim asks in a worried tone from behind. I jump a little. " Ahh, Prim! where were you little duck?" "Remember that I can't get dinner with you adults." She says playfully pointing at me with her little and skinny finger. "So I stayed here, in this room alone, with the maids eating dinner" she continues changing her tone to a dramatic one.
"Oooh poor little duck, I would've gladly accompanied you, if I knew you were going to be here all alone" I said while moving toward her and, then I tap her head, trying to smile.
"Well a I think I'm going to sleep, I'm tiered" "Ok Prim, I'll be there in a while, good night" "Good night" she answer while rubbing her right eye.
Then I sit in front of the mirror, grabbing a towel and some cream to take the makeup out of my face. I start slowly with my eyes, mouth, cheeks and then the rest of my face. I get my hair loose. Put the towel down and stare at the mirror for a few seconds. My eyes began to get watery. I tremble slightly as I touch my face. I can't stand this life. Tears are spilling now, my lips quiver. I stand fast causing the chair to fall and make a loud noise, I look at it. That's my trigger. Tears are spilling faster, getting the top of my dress wet in tears; my right hand is at my chest. My whole body is shaking now. I look at the mirror and to the chair again. An anguished cry escapes from my throat. I star kicking the chair, hard, multiple times. I then pass to my white gloves, tearing them out of my hands, and then I kick out my shoes falling beside the table. I start screaming then, tearing all the room apart, throwing everything I can. I throw one of my shoes again and it lands, right in the mirror, breaking it.
Peeta POV
The music in the room is loud, everybody is dancing; but I need calmness right now, time to think a little. I'm not in the mod of dancing. So I just grab my coat, deciding to go to the upper deck to watch the stars, relax a little. I get out of the room, start climbing the stair, passing corridors, opening doors. Thinking of nothing really, my head is blank. I get to the upper deck, there's nobody there. Well it is reasonable, it's late and very cold out here. I lay down a bench looking up to the clear starry sky, there are no clouds. I put my hands behind my head and close my eyes, thinking about district 12, my family, Delly and the bakery, are they okay without me? I dicide Im not going to worry about that;Im going to relax a little; but then…
