Ralph Hawk:

Ralph looked outside his house. It was snowing just like in the other districts, but work was canceled and now he wouldn't get his payment to buy food. Also, he had to sign up to get food and that would get him a chance to go to the Hunger Games. "The HUnger Games, what a thrill it must be to be one of the 24 tributes to probably die a horrible death", Ralph said to himself. He then thought of everyone that would miss him... "Serena, Micheal, Jenny and a few others", he thought. He got up from his chair and went into the small living room where a fire was. He sat down and started thinking if he could not be choosen from the reapings. Just he heard a knock by the door. "In a minute!" Ralph anwsered. He hoped it was someone to help him...

Ally stumbled through the snow drifts. Snow- she hated snow. When there was snow there was no work, no work no money, no money no food. She had just signed up for a tessera only to be told she would have to wait until more grain is shipped in because evidently everyone had the same idea as her.
Ally then started going door to door seeing if anything needed to be done like laundry, stuff like that. She managed to get a small slice of bread from a store keeper for sweeping the floor just because she felt sorry for her.
Ally was now knocking on yet another door with her near frozen fingers in hope that she wouldn't be turned away like everyone else had done.
"Please please," She muttered to herself as she pulled her coat closer around her.

Ralph Hawk:

Ralph went to the door and opened it. Standing there was a girl, who was near to frozen death. "Come in", Ralph said. The girl somehow managed to get inside and walked towards the fire, she was shivering up a storm. Ralph went into the kitchen and came back with two cups of Hot Cocoa and gave a cup to the girl. "Why were you doing out there?", he asked her....

Ally held onto the cup of hot liquid like her life depended on it. She forgot she was in the wealthy part of town where they could afford such things like coco and firewood.
"I'm looking for bit jobs- I have to feed my family some way," Ally managed out between her chattering and sipping the drink that was good that she had to tell her herself to pace the sips so she wouldn't get sick. "Do you have any?"

Ralph Hawk:

Ralph heard the girls words. "Any jobs?" he said, "Yea there is one job, but the problem I can't pay you in money, bread if you need it, my sister makes very good bread". The girl was sipping the Cocoa and then she stopped chattering. Good, she's not cold anymore, maybe I should let her stay the night, anyway she needs to get better. "We have an extra room near the bathroom if you want to stay". The girl put the Cocoa down on the table and sat there staring at me and then grabbed the Cocoa again. She's probably from the poorest side of town, I thought....

Ally thought for a moment as she stared into the drink in her hand. She didn't want to feel like she owed this man anything. She liked all her debts to be paid, how would she repay him? She couldn't that was a fact.
"I don't want your charity," She said, it came out bitter even though she didn't mean it to be. "What's the job?"
Ally would just accept the bread and go home, it was enough to make up for today's lose of work.
