Chapter 25

Katniss strolled over, all apologetic, "Saskia, my bad for keeping you waiting so long!"

Saskia flashed a smile, "No worries, I've just got here."

Truth was, Saskia had no clue when Katniss's class ended and didn't have her contact info. She'd been hanging around the door since 4 AM.

Saskia turned to Katniss, "Let's hit up Grandma's place to grab your stuff. My parents have already set up your room, and it's all brand new. You're gonna love it." Katniss felt a wave of gratitude. Wesley had really gone the extra mile to make her feel at home with all the new stuff.

Compared to her real parents, Wesley's family showed way more care. Her own parents had just handed her Clara's old sheets and clothes.

Hearing footsteps on the stairs, Saskia came over to help with the suitcase, which was super light, holding just a few pieces of clothing.
