//Katniss's pov//
"Katniss!!! Peeta"!! A voice calls from downstairs.
I peer over at the clock.
11:30
It reads.
I stretch my arms kiss Peeta's cheek signaling him to wake up. He growls then opens his eyes.
"There is someone here. In the house" I say getting up and throwing him his robe. I put mine on too and together we tip toe down the stairs trying not to make much noise.
"Who is it" Peeta calls to a woman with straight light brown hair who faces out the window.
"It's me! Effie"!
My jaw drops as she turns dressed in a once normal but still fashionable outfit. Her face almost plain besides the little mascara on her lashes. She finishes the muffin in her hand as we run down the stairs to greet her.
We both squeeze her tightly.
"Where is Haymitch"? I ask
She guessers over to the couch where he sits flipping through the channels.
"The repair man fixed our tv's this morning. The construction workers will be here to pick up this whole mess at noon. The contractors come in just about a hour. And the food truck should be here in just about"- Effie gets cut off my a knock at the door.
"Now"!
