Breath in. *inhales* Breath out. *exhales*. That's all I think about when I try to keep calm in the heat of the terrible summer. It's hard for me to take how hot it is. I can't do most of what I want to do. I get too hot way too fast, and my parents don't want me to go outside because they don't want me to get a "heat stroking", whatever that is. Why can't it be winter again? I like winter. Ooo, a butterfly. I'm gonna catch it. I will catch it.

After what feels like only seconds, I finally capture the beauty. Feeling proud, I turn to take it inside, only to realize I'm not where I remember ever being. Where am I? How'd I get here? Why am I so hot? I take a look around, trying to find the closest store or home or something to help me get home. There's my favorite store. I think I know where to get home from there. I'm gonna check it out really quick, first, though.

The store has so many cool things. It has everything from little trinkets with your name on them to puzzles of past arenas and posters of the victors and other tributes. I wonder what would happen if I was in the games. Would I be able to hurt anyone? I think they would be fun. I stare at the posters hanging from the wall for a little longer before I finally push myself to focus and head on home. My plan fails as soon as something catches my eyes.What's that? It's shiny. I'm gonna poke it. Where'd it go?

Scratching my chin, I'd stand outside the house, wondering what to do. Today was a day off from career training and Aunt Miranda had begged that I didn't spend the day inside. The twins were at school, so I couldn't entertain them.Maybe I'll browse the stores, maybe even buy something fancy.

Summer had come with brute force but I loved it. The warmth was so much better than the cold and you were able to do so much more. More plants grew, there was a lot more wildlife floating around, especially the butterflies.

Entering deeper into the district, the games were highlighted all over. Posters of tributes, great big screens with their training scores and odds. Thankfully this year I didn't get reaped, there was a great possibility that I would though, with the quell. Although it didn't really effect 1, as we just had one male and one female like usual.

Looking through shop windows, the stores really had bizarre objects for sale. Tiny swords for toddlers, why would a toddler need a sword? Tiny bow and arrows, we were really starting them young with the career training. Spotting a shiny object on the ground, I'd bend down picking t up. A broach, with the District 1 logo on it. Probably made out of silver, it had a hole on the top of it, presumably where you put a chain. Inspecting it, the object could be worth something in the black market.

    I become super confused. Where'd the shiny thing go? I just saw it. What the heck. I stand there befuddled, not really paying attention to anything. Something else catches my eye: a dude standing up in front of me, pocketing something. Maybe he knows what happened to it. But should I as him? Yeah, I should. He probably does know.

    "Hey, I think I might have dropped and lost something shiny somewhere near here. Do you know what could have happened to it?" I just lied. Why'd I just lie about that? I don't know. Was it that important to lie about? I sure hope so. Oh look a butterfly.

    I start to chase it, then I remember that he might help me with the missing object. Dang it. That was a pretty butterfly. Why'd it have to come when I couldn't catch it? I stare longingly at the passing insect before I look back at the guy. "So do you have an answer? Can you help me find it?

Placing my hands into my pockets, i'd continue with my day to day routine. "Hey, I think I might have dropped and lost something shiny somewhere near here. Do you know what could have happened to it?" Turning my attention to the speaker, i would turn around and face them.

A shiny object, like the one I just pocketed? Should i give it to him but it could be worth a lot in the market. However if it is his, then i would be stealing. I'd rather not get thrown into the detention center. Pulling out the token from my pocket, I'd show it to the guy.

"Do you mean this?" Revealing the District one emblem, I'd show it to the guy. Place flat on my palm, I'd wait for him to retrieve it from me.

He pulls out the shiny object he placed in his pocket. "Do you mean this?" I look carefully at it. It has the emblem of our District on it. There's nothing too special about it other than it's shiny. I look at it some more before I make my decision. Should I take it? I already lied about it, so might as take it, right?

To respond to his question, I nod and I quickly grab it out of his hand and shove it down my pocket. "Thank you for returning it and not walking off with it. It means a lot." I really should stop lying. I don't like it. I really hope he doesn't notice I'm lying.

Leaving, I kinda shuffle around, nod and thank him again, and then look down in shame of lying or fear of being caught. I quickly walk away in some random direction, trying to shake the guilty feeling I now have that is sinking in my stomach. Should I return it? No. Should I sell it? Probably. I should give it to the Peacekeepers! No. They'd yell at me. What do I do?
