I was just in front of the whole district. I felt like I was going to collapse, my stage fright catching up to my legs. I was forced off the stage by the peacekeepers before I fell. The only and last time I am actually grateful for the peacekeepers.
They forced me through a door, pushing me into the room that lay on the other side. It was almost bigger than our entire house. It was definitely more glamorous. Soft, velvet cushions. Dark wood bookshelves lined with titles I wasn't privileged enough to know. I ran my hands over the cushions, my whole body getting a tingly sensation as the soft hairs of the cushions tickle my hands.
"You have 3 minutes."
A voice says from beyond the door. Someone comes in a rush. I knew who it was immediately. Onyx was standing right in front of me. I pounced on her, pulling her into a bone-crushing hug. My tears leaked onto her shoulder.
"I will be trying to come out of that arena for you, Onyx."
My voice was cracking. I could barely get the words out, as my tears fell into my mouth as I spoke. The taste of salt washes down my throat. I am too emotional to care about it.
"You have to stay strong for mom and dad. You can't let them go to the place they went when Ave died."
