Her struggle was so real, James had to order food from a famous restaurant owned by the village head. He couldn't explain if someone was to die due to hunger in their show.

It’s as if she feels guilty for being able to eat well when I couldn’t. “The first Reaping after I took the job made me see that there was something very wrong happening with the food.
