I never took choosing which faction to live in for the rest of my life seriously until I was fifteen years old. In one year I would find out which faction I belonged in, and then I'd have to choose where to go, which might result in leaving my family and my faction, Abnegation.
I know that will happen. I am not selfless, no matter how hard I try to be. Wherever I'm meant to go, it is not Abnegation.
I'm sixteen now. I live with my parents, my twin sister Ashley, and my seven-year-old brother Marvin. Marvin is a very selfless kid. He will probably choose Abnegation when the time comes.
Where Ashley belongs is a mystery. She'a probably uncertain, like me.
I guess I'll rely on the aptitude test that I have to take tomorrow.
"Ha!" My mother calls. "Sasha's at the door."
Sasha's my best friend. She was orphaned at a young age. She lives with another family now, but she is still uneasy around them.
I dread leaving Abnegation, but in two days, I probably will.
