But no, I wont call him. I'm much too good for him. And besides, he's probably some old crook, sad that he wasn't good enough to volunteer for the Games. It seems that everyone around District Two is like that in one way or another, doesn't it? So I crack a slight smile before flipping my fairly long light brown hair over my right shoulder and turning away. Oh, how nice it is.
Oh, but when I smile anyone can see my two top front teeth. See the pair in all their buckish glory. I have to be careful, more careful. Out in the world there are cameras. People always looking for my faults. That's why I try to have none, and cover up the ones that are unavoidable.
Daddy always says, "No beauty surgery now, sweetheart. You're perfect the way you are." And no matter how much I whine and complain that "it just isn't fair, Daddy!" he never breaks. Not even when I tell him that all the other girls are doing it does he listen. And yes, for your information, all of those sluts have been getting beauty surgery (as we like to call it).
I feel kind of left out. Not in the sense that I'm not a confident young women, I am. But I just don't get why Daddy wont let me fix the one thing that is noticeably wrong with me - the worst part is that it doesn't even cost much! He always does this. He never gives me the things that I want; no, the things that I deserve.
Daddy even said no to a nose job! It's literally the easiest procedure in the book. (Everyone who's anyone gets a nose job.) My nose is really the only issue I have with myself besides my teeth. God, why can't I be flawless? My shiny brown hair and light brown eyes are beautiful enough for me. They don't need any work done.
Let's be honest: No guy stares at me because of my pretty face and charming ways. It's really quite the opposite. I hear the whistles and catcalls whenever I walk down the street. And I love it. I love all of the attention that I get from men. I love having them swoon over me.
Isn't it just ironic that Daddy told me that I only get nice stuff when I'm nice? Because he must not know how obsessed these guys are with me. How they fill in the void that he left in my life. There is no way that he knows at all.
Maybe I'd be nice if I let one guy get close to me. Like that's ever going to happen! I just enjoy the never ending obsession too much. Maybe I fuel the flames ever so slightly with the showy way that I dress...
But that just adds on to the fun, doesn't it now Daddy?
We McEwens never seem to get reaped for the games. It's a plus (and a minus) really. All of the members of the family stay alive, which allows us to make more money and live a more fabulous life. In fact, our luck has made us rich beyond the extent that most find it possible. Daddy likes to joke that we are basically above the law, but I think we're just below it. (He did once tell me to never ask about his business, so I don't. There are rumors around the district, but I don't buy into them.) That being said, with all of our money, it made perfect sense for Daddy to wed a member of the Birch family.
Yeah, they're my distant relatives, second cousins to be exact, but they're fun to hang around. If only for their money it's fun to be near them. That'd be why I spend so much time around them. It doesn't matter that we're barely related, just that they have money and prestige as a family. (Prestige. That's what the McEwen family is missing. Why do I always forget that word.) It just so happens that the Birch's are unlucky when it comes to the reaping, having lost two children recently. Oh, those children. I never did care all that much about them/ My mother took it hard, and Daddy was there to console her like a good husband. I even had to fake tears for them. I can still make do with the other cousins, they're still plenty of fun to surround myself with.
The money definitely helps too. Of course that aspect is important when it comes to making friends. It has been my whole life.
