Today is the singing test. We can sing any song we like, as long as we know the tune. I'm going to sing The Hanging Tree. Dad taught Prim and I the song, until Mom banned it. This time, I get to dress however I like. I chose a forest green tank top with black leggings, then head over to the room.
Peeta sits there, I guess he's a judge. "Um hi. I'm going to sing, The Hanging Tree, I hope you enjoy."
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man
They say who murdered three
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out
For his love to flee
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where I told you to run
So we'd both be free
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
They all hold up cards with the number "10" on each and every one. I smile and look at Peeta, who has added a plus mark to his sign. Blushing, I walk out.
I later learn that Glimmer can sing too. God. I have a feeling competing with her won't be easy.
