Peeta was a rather solemn boy who found peace being alone and oblivious to his surroundings. Only two things mattered to him- thinking for the sake of new ideas and sleeping. They made him very distinct from his two hyper active babbling siblings,the pair being twins. Aden, the adept half of his second twin Adrian derived joy in physical activities and always seemed to be up and about hop-singing never actually bored because he seemed to find new and inventive ways of entertaining himself. it wasn't so rosy for his twin brother. A timid version of the latter. They were birthed by a mother who wouldn't let them live or die and a father who was always one step of their actions. Mother was loved by her three offsprings but she wasn't one to be emotionally direct with them; her way was sort of omnipresent leaving traces of love with her actions. Dear old dad didn't want to get right to the stone cold fact that he was aging as fast as the hair cells in is epidermis. He was stern, condescending all be it, he never would condone irrational actions. the family was controlled by one single belief etched into their memories perhaps way before birth; always doing what was right.

Peeta was the first born son of his father Mikael who whole heartedly practiced his trade as a blacksmith snd lockmaker recognized by everyone in the village for his fine work in making locks mostly. He had a certain invisible pattern etched in his designs which would make his customers immediately recognize his doings at the mere sight of it. Mikael wanted Peeta to learn and continue his business poshly arted as blacksmith work but the boy was always in a world of his own. No one really seemed to understand his network of reasoning. Most of the time, he only spoke when spoken to. he felt talking a need be if something wasn't actually right in his presence. He would observe everything to an infinitesimal detail like some sort ancient scroll with verse knowledge. His mother, Rhisa understood he wasn't like most boys and shielded him from the misunderstanding and occasional wrath of his father who believed his son to be a lazy simpleton incapable of any good thing. He never could really connect with his son who shut his mind to everyone. Things were about to change in that respect.
