I do not own divergent. Just my ideas.
Tris POV
I guess it's a nice enough house. Definitely better than the last place.
"Tris, this is Max and Jamie", said Johanna, my social worker.
"Hi, Tris, we are so excited to have you," Jamie smiled at me.
I gave her a small smile. This will be the 3rd home in the year since my parents passed. The pain is still fresh, I can remember the accident like it was yesterday.
Flashback
Caleb and I walk through the front door after school. We had both been staying at our friend's home while our parents we on a charity goodwill mission to Africa and they were set to arrive today. I couldn't wait to see them after their extended absence. I start dinner and Caleb flips on the television, to the news, of course, and assists me.
"The plane has yet to be recovered," the anchorman announced. I glance up from the cutting board to see the headline ONE LIFE CHARITY PLANE CRASH. The knife fell from my hand making a loud bang when it hit the floor. One Life was the charity my parents worked for.
"Beatrice, are you alright?" Caleb says spinning around. He follows my eyes to the television.
"…five people were reportedly on the plane, no survivors have been found according to the US Coast Guard…" the reporter continues as I sink to the ground numbly.
End Flashback
I am ushered into the house.
"So, Tris, I think you are really going to enjoy living here. We have four other children attending the high school you will be starting as well" Max explains to me.
I nod. I had assumed as much seeing as every other foster home I had lived in also had other children that would attend the same school as me.
Johanna pulls out the forms for them to finalize my placement. I feel like a UPS package, signed over. She gives me a smile and a hug, which I unsuccessfully dodge, and her coined "let me know if you need anything" line before she walks out the door.
"Jamie, show Tris to her room" Max says as he walks into the next room.
I pick up my bags and follow Jamie up the stairs.
