YAY! I'M BACK! CHOOSING CEREMONY! THE HORROR!
ROBERT'S POV
What should I do?
I'll have to leave my family if I choose Amity, but I've always felt so oppressed here. I don't know! I began to panic. I can't do this! I can't! I took Susan's hand to calm myself down. Susan seemed calm. She was always selfless, I had no doubt that she would pick Abnegation.
My father seemed happily oblivious t the fact that I was thinking of leaving, but I think that my mother and Susan sensed something.
"Robert, are you okay?" asked my mother in a concerned tone.
"I'm fine," I lied, not wanting to worry her. I saw Beatrice and Caleb walk past us, both looking very worried.
I guess that I wasn't the only one thinking of leaving my faction. I knew that Beatrice would leave, she never really fit in at Abnegation. But Caleb? He seemed to fit in very well here.
I sat down in the auditorium. I drummed my fingers against the arm of my seat. Marcus stepped onto the stage.
"Welcome. Today is a very important day..." he said. I didn't really listen to the rest. I was too worried. What would I choose? Selflessness or peacefulness? People chose their factions. I heard some gasps along the way.
After a little while Marcus called, "Susan Black." My sister stepped onto the stage and cut her palm. She dropped them into the Abnegation stones. My parents smiled.
"Robert Black," called Marcus. I shakily walked up to the stage. I took the knife and shakily cut my palm, barely noticing the pain. I raised my hand over the bowls.
I flung my hand over a bowl. My blood dripped over the Amity earth. Some people gasped. I quickly ran over to the Amity section. I didn't dare to look over at my family. I knew that I was no longer my sisters brother or my parents son.
Everyone surged out of the auditorium. I got one last glance at my family. They all smiled sadly. I smiled back at them and then was pushed forward. Tears sprung to my eyes, I blinked them away. You're Amity now. I thought.
We walked to the elevator. It was strange to take the elevator after sixteen years of taking the stairs.
I looked round at the initiates. There were three Candor, five Erudite and one Dauntless girl. I looked at her and she looked back at me, her eyes glassy. I didn't think of Dauntless as people who cried. The girl quickly blinked away her tears and her eyes turned hard. She started mouthing something to herself. She's crazy. I thought, then mentally kicked myself. Calling people crazy wasn't very nice.
We walked to the Fence and climbed into big red trucks. We rode away to the Amity compound. I looked at the Abnegation sector fading into the distance. I blinked away tears once again.
