Again I was at my mirror. My matching black unitard to Neipa fit snugly unlike hers. You could tell we were sisters by our facial features but other than that we look nothing alike.
She is skinny, amazingly tall, has short black hair and is really pale.
I however have an athletic build, average height, long platinum hair and bronzed.
I used to have a sister who was looked exactly like me, Zara, but ironically she was in the competition and lost. It's lucky really, she was horrible, only trusted our mother, hated any one else, me and Neipa hated her too though.
Our family looked weak thanks to her, and sometimes I wish I could participate, just to set the record straight, but I shouldn't be wishing for things like that, you never knew who you could be competing with. Neipa could win easily, I don't know about my mother, but I'm not worried, she can look after herself.
I skip downstairs. "I'm going with Geesha today," My best friend, I always go with her to the stealing.
"Freyja! What about me?" Neipa replies.
"What about you?"
"What if I get picked?" She says with a puppy face.
If she gets picked, I would follow her around and when the bell sounded, I would distract the competition so she could get back first easily. She would probably win anyway, but I wouldn't risk it for her. "You'll survive." I say blandly, and without further distraction I leave. I didn't see my mother, she's probably gone already.
I walk to Geesha's house. It's not too far away, but I don't like using our bikes, I find it too risky, I wouldn't want people to find our tribe, I think houses are already too risky, but they are hidden I guess, but I still get nervous.
"Geesh," As soon as my fist hits the door it's open.
"Hey, Frey," she says hugging me, her chocolate hair swaying in the breeze. She lets go and frowns. "Walking?"
I nod.
