Prologue: Tris POV
I really need a job.
After going to Loyola University Chicago for four years majoring in English, then going to Loyola University of Law for three you would think that I would have a job, but no. Nobody wants to hire a 25 year old, which looks like a 12 year old, that can't even intimidate a frog.
I have been looking for a job for weeks now and they all say the same thing, "We will take you into consideration." Of course that means no, but I can't loose hope.
I am only standing in front of the largest law firm in Chicago for one reason-my brother set up the interview.
Damn you Caleb.
I should just turn around. There is absolutely no way they are going to hire me becau-
"Beatrice Grace Prior! You better go in there right now or I will drag you in!" Of course Caleb was smart enough to send me with Christina to make sure I go inside. Once again, damn you Caleb.
"They aren't going to hire me, Chris."
" You don't know that! Now, get your ass in there!"
"Fine," I huff. I take a deep breath and open the gigantic glass door.
"Good luck!" I hear Christina yell from behind me.
I smile.
The receptionist literally gave me a map to get to Ms. Johnson's office and I still can't find my way there.
As I am studying the map I slam into someone.
"Oh my gosh! I am so sorry! I didn't even see you!" I say trying to pick up the papers I made this person drop.
I look up and see a woman with very defined features-strong jaw, slightly hooked nose, ears that slightly stick out, tanned skin, dark-curly hair, and broad shoulders. Talk about intimidating.
"Its fine. It happens to everyone at least once in their life." It happens to me at least once a day.
"Umm, do you happen to know where Ms. Johnson's office is? I have been walking around for ten minutes trying to find it," I say nervously.
"Well, you have happened to run into the right person! I'm Evelyn Johnson, nice to meet you."
I walk out of the law firm stunned.
"How did it go? Did you get a job?" Christina asks excitedly.
"I did." I say still shocked that Evelyn, the head of the firm, hired me as her intern.
"I knew it was going to happen! And its even better that it's here! The biggest law firm in Chicago!"
I smile.
I have been working with Evelyn for five months now and it's great. Even though she looks scary as hell, she is super sweet.
I moved out of my parents' house finally. As much as I love them, it was time for me to go. Even though I have a rinky-dink apartment, it's home. I also get to go to my old house anytime I want and we have family dinners on Sunday with me, Mom, Dad, Caleb, and his fiancé Susan; so, it's a win-win.
As I am driving to work, I get a phone call from Caleb.
"Hey Caleb! What's up?"
"Beatrice you need to come to the police station." He says sobbing.
"Why?! Caleb, what's wrong?!"
"Please hurry." He says with a voice I haven't heard since we were kids.
"Okay I'm on my way!" I say and hang up.
Oh my god what happened!
When I reach the police station I see Susan comforting a Caleb in hysterics. I have never ever seen him like this.
"Caleb," I say softly, "what happened?"
"It's Mom and Dad." He eventually says and my world comes crumbling down.
Question of the Chapter: What kind of pets do you have? I have a Pug (Max), Dalmatian-Pit Bull mix (Cookie), a tabby with white (Rosie), a black cat (Cleopatra or Cleo), her babies (George, Leonardo or Leo, and Violet), and the cockatoo (Darling).
