Chapter 6
After getting herself ready, Katniss crashed for a couple of hours. Come evening, she grabbed her prescription and headed to the pharmacy to snag her meds. Walking in, she handed the script to the pharmacist with a grin, "Hey, can you hook me up with these meds and grind 'em into powder? Thanks a bunch." The pharmacist took a look and smiled back, "Sure thing, just a sec."
About ten minutes later, the pharmacist handed Katniss a bag full of powdered meds and started ringing her up.
"That'll be seventy-eight bucks," the pharmacist said.
Katniss pulled out a wad of cash from her bag, counted it, and handed it over.
Holding the heavy bag of meds, she felt a sting in her chest. She only had three hundred bucks, and this bag of meds cost nearly eighty. Making money ain't easy!
Finding a part-time gig was a must; otherwise, she'd be starving.
She also grabbed some honey, planning to make pills when she got home.
Speaking of home, did she even have one? But until she could stand on her own, she still had to go back to The Manners Villa.
The Manners Villa was tucked behind the clothing factory's residential area, with a unique three-story house and some pretty distinctive decor.
