After her rebirth by Cici

Chapter 54

Katniss was stoked to have one less exam to worry about.

Now she could whip up something tasty for Maximilian.

After saying goodbye to Brent, Katniss headed back to her old classroom to grab her books and let the teacher know.

The moment she walked in, she saw a bunch of people crowding around Juniper, grilling her about her upcoming exchange student trip abroad.

The Davis family wasn't about to let Juniper miss out on such a sweet gig. The school she was headed to was top-notch, and you couldn't just buy your way in.

This meant Juniper and Katniss were about to go their separate ways.

Seeing Katniss, Juniper broke away from the group and came over, saying, "Katniss, I'm about to head abroad."

Katniss gave her a playful pinch on the cheek and smirked, "You better go. If you bail because of some dumb emotional stuff, I'll kick your butt."

Life ain't all about feelings.

Juniper's eyes got all watery, "But I'm gonna miss you."

"Hey, if you miss me, send me a ton of postcards! And don't forget to hook me up when you get back!" Katniss said, grinning. "Oh, and guess what? I passed my transfer exam, and Professor Jenkins said I can skip tomorrow's test." Juniper's eyes lit up. She'd been so caught up with everyone else's questions that she forgot today was Katniss's big exam day!
