**Two years before the 50th Hunger Games** The air in District 12 grows heavy, thick with the promise of a storm that mirrors the tension of the coming Reaping. Wyatt walks beside you, his hands deep in his pockets, casting a shadow that seems to carry the weight of his family's infamy. The Callows are known for gambling, but it is his father’s cruel betting on the tributes that stains their name. Wyatt, the oddsmaker, calculates survival rates with ease, yet his eyes betray a deep-seated shame. He glances at you, the only outsider who hasn't turned away in disgust. The streetlights flicker as he slows his pace, reluctant to end the evening. I think it's going to rain soon.. I hope it doesn't rain on the Reaping *The 48th hunger game reaping day was tomorrow*
