Chapter 1: Heartbroken Years
Tobias's Pov
This is it. Today is Tris and I's five year anniversary, and it is the day I visit her grave for the millionth time. I miss her so much. It's been ages since my heart has ached. I still can't believe that she's gone. She's with her parents now, smiling down on me. But she wouldn't want me to be living how I am. I'm still single, I'm living in a small apartment and I'm unemployed. Ever since the factions fell two years ago, I have been hired by the government to do small missions, but it's nothing big. But since I help the government with things, they give me a roof over my head and food on my plate. I've noticed, I've become reckless. I never think things through and that's caused me to get quite a bit cut up. I look at the old gun wound I got from invading an old, abandoned, Erudite headquarters. I was supposed to get information, but there were some thugs who lived there who disagreed with me being in their "turf." And while I have been asked out on dates and stuff like that, I've never accepted a single one. I just feel empty without Tris and no one understands this except for maybe a friend I made. Her name is Rosemary, and she reminds me of Tris in a lot of ways. She has Tris' body type, that's for sure. But she's also different. She has scars all over and wounds from doing missions. But she has a similar outlook on life. I couldn't help but tell her about Tris and she coldly would tell me:
"Either move on, or don't. Don't complain to me about things that have nothing to do with the mission."
I never understood why Rosemary was so distant, but regardless, she was a great listener. I would often just ask her to listen and she would do so. She would then always say that I've wasted her time and that she could of been training. The weird thing about her, is that she was supposed to be in Amity. But obviously, she seems more like a Dauntless. I wonder how she didn't turn out Divergent. But regardless, the factions are over so I shouldn't be thinking about all that.
I walk up to Tris' grave with flowers and Rosemary comes along too. When I told her I was going, she seemed interested in seeing Tris' grave. She simply said:
"Anyone who makes you this upset, must of been a hell of a person."
I place the flowers on Tris' grave and Rosemary puts her hand on my shoulder. I then look up and say:
"Tris..." Rosemary immediately stops me.
"Woah, what the fuck are you doing? Stop with all the emotional crap and let's get going. It's been three years since she passed. You gotta move on. I'm not saying you should stop missing her, but you shouldn't keep acting as if she died yesterday." I stare at Rosemary shocked. She's never expressed so much emotion. She usually doesn't talk much or judge people.
"I'm sorry, but you should really get over Tris." She says sadly. She walks away and the wind blows. Her hat falls off and she turns around to get it. The shocking thing is, she reminds me of Tris...
