Chapter 34

Nathan was fuming, feeling the shade being thrown his way but couldn't pin it down. Katniss was off to the side, cool as a cucumber, going over her notes, not even looking his way. Her chill vibe cut him deep.

He spotted some medical books sticking out of Katniss's bag and thought, 'Seriously, Katniss wants to switch to med school? With her half-baked knowledge? She's so full of herself. When she bombs that transfer exam, she'll be bawling, and no one will give a damn. She asked for it.'

Clara, looking all kinds of awkward, softly called out to Katniss, trying to break her focus, but Katniss just cranked up the volume, catching the attention of students trickling into the room.

Out of nowhere, Clara's eyes filled with tears.

"Katniss, do you really hate me that much?" Clara asked, her voice breaking.

Clara's friends swooped in to console her.

"Clara, ignore her. Katniss is just a heartless witch who doesn't know the meaning of gratitude. Don't waste your tears."

"Clara, come sit with me. Forget about her."

"Katniss, have you no shame? Treating your family like this. Apologize to Clara right now!"
