Chapter 66

Katniss dropped the curtain and flicked on the living room light.

The living room had taken the worst hit-sofa, chairs, tables, all trashed, and the walls were splattered with red paint.

The renovation crew had repainted the walls white, covering up the ugly red mess. Now, all she had to do was get new furniture.

Sure, she could buy new stuff, but it wouldn't be the same as what Aurora had.

The house felt empty, all the familiar things were gone. Katniss felt a weird sense of unfamiliarity.

She took a quick look around and then left.

She went out and bought a bunch of white lilies.

Katniss hopped on the bus to the cemetery on the outskirts of town. Aurora was buried in the northern cemetery, thanks to Oliver. It was pretty fancy, for appearances' sake.

It was almost nine now, and the cemetery was deserted, no streetlights, just the cold wind howling.

Katniss was dressed lightly, feeling like she was in an icebox. Her exposed hands and feet were already turning a bit blue.

Finally, she got to the cemetery. The caretaker, an old man, shone his flashlight in her face. "The gates are closed now. If you want to pay your respects, come back tomorrow morning."

Katniss was taken aback, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you couldn't visit at night."

Not wanting to cause trouble, she apologized quietly and turned to leave.

The caretaker saw Katniss, a young girl, standing in the cold wind with thin clothes and holding flowers. She must have had some grievance and no one to talk to, so she came to pay respects to her deceased relative. How pitiful.

"Alright, alright, come in. But make it snappy," the caretaker said.
