Mrs. Parks' desk

{if game_started = true}

You decide to test your luck with Mrs. Parks. She is heading out of the reception area when you leave the Head mistress' office. "Mrs. Parks," you call to her, "I wanted to see what you were up to and see if you were interested in a conversation partner."

"Oh, dear me..." she jumps as you sneak up behind her, "You're quite welcome to join me, Tribute Doe. I was just heading to breakfast." She gave you her usual pleasant smile as you padded along beside her.

She leads you to a small courtyard on the far side of the main building, on you don't remember being there, but you hardly come to the side of the compound. She notices you inspecting the area, "It's quiet here, I come her to eat and think." She notices the that you didn't bring anything with you, "Oh dear me, we can't have you starving. No, no, no."

She sets her purse down. And pulls out two apple danishes that we're wrapped up. "Here you go." She says passing you one. She then pulls out a large bottle of water and hands that to you as well. "Enjoy." She says as you both start to eat.

As you bit into it you are floored by how sweet and buttery it is. The cafeteria food is normally bland and almost tasteless. When you looked up and saw tears on Mrs. Parks face you thought it was because of the overwhelming taste of the large apple pastries. As you ate and watched her though her normally cheerful demeanor broke down and you began to wonder what was truly bothering her.
