Kat
I woke up the next morning and there was a huge weight on my chest. It was like I was in a cage and could not escapes. I was limp and lifeless, which was completely opposite from how I was normally. Theo woke me up. His voice was not harsh, it was more like he was trying not to be too much of anything.
I let my hand slip out of his and get up, without responding to him. I wanted so badly to kiss him, embracing him, something but me cage was holding back. I got my clothes and walked into the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror. Why am I making this so hard for myself? I am hurting myself.
After getting dressed and eating a little, we headed to the base. Derek and Koda were talking about something. Kai was teaching some girls how to fight. Koda and Derek saw us. Usually when Theo and I fought, I would try to make him jealous, but today I just could not even do anything nor did I want to.
I walked over to a station where we would throw knives. I did not know if I had the strength to do anything else, as dramatic as that sounded. But honestly, I don't feel like doing anything at all. I did not have a drive in my at all.
Theo grabbed a knife and chucked it at the dummy. He sliced its shoulder, but that was it. The knife did not stick. I sighed and threw the knife, I did not have enough power to make it stick.
I heard a laugh behind me and I turned around. Koda put a hand on Theo's back and smiled. "This might be the first thing your wife is not good at." He said. "Hey Kat." He smiles.
"Hi." I force a smile.
He gives me a look seeing a lack of energy and motivation to speak. "You alright?"
I nod. "Yeah, I am just a little tired." Theo caught my eye and gave me another look. I gave him a sad smiled and looked away. I could hear him sigh and throw another knife. I was truly not trying to make him mad.
The group was gathered because Derek needed to talk. "Alright guys, we are planning an attack soon. We need everyone to be on there A game. We have grown in numbers and we feel like we are ready to attack." He says. "We can not let children starve anymore. It is not just about us anymore."
Theo and I looked at each other. Everyone was not starving. It was just the people here. "Theo, I think we should tell them about what happened last night."
"What that we went to your parents house and got into it?" He asked.
I sigh. "Please don't. I mean that my parents are not being rationed and we have probably fifteen pounds because we don't have enough."
