TOBIAS

"It won't." I say sadly as I walk towards Christina and Matthew, my vision still blurry from crying. Christina shrugged while Matthew looked down. I was about to speak again when we heard someone groan. We all turn (or in David's case, wheel) around and see Uriah trying to get up from his bed. Christina gasped as she went next to him and tell him to stay put. My eyes immediately darted towards Tris—hoping to see her awake and smiling at us—only to see her sleeping still, or worse, dead. I frowned, knowing that all her (and my) hopes and dreams are crushed. And what's worse? It's all because of me. I haven't notice that i'm crying again if it weren't for Uriah.

"Four... Four!" I hear him call my name. I immediately wipe my eyes before looking at him. Uriah is wearing a sad smile and he reminded me of Zeke. That is when I remembered my promise to him. On the bright side, at least Zeke wouldn't choke me to death. "Phew, I thought you went deaf or something."

I rolled my eyes at him. Uriah chuckled but immediately stopped himself. "You know, Tris could have forgiven you." he says in a thoughtful way.

"What do you mean about it?" Christina asked.

"If it weren't for the explosion, I mean." says Uriah, his words straightforward and unchecked. Christina nodded and closed her eyes, understanding what Uriah meant. I do understand, too, but I decided to listen to his words. Hungry about Tris' possible last words. "I think she's sad about your fight, and I can see it in her eyes. She could really have forgiven you, Four." he continue.

I looked at the ground from shame. How could I be so selfish? Just because I had known that i'm GD doesn't mean I should have distrusted Tris. I should have been the one on this... deathbed, instead of Tris! I can sense that all eyes are staring at me so immediately look up, trying to avoid their gazes. Christina sighed impatiently and volunteer to get the doctor for Uriah. All of them agree so Christina left. David grunted. We all look at him.

"It seems that Miss Prior here would not wake up anymore. Her brother must decide what to do." David says injecting a fake sympathy in his voice, which made my blood boil. Tris will not die, i'll make sure of that. "What a terrible lost it would—"

"Shut up!" I yell madly. "Shut up! Tris will wake up! Uriah did, so what difference would it make?"

David remained calm. "Mr. Eaton, our doctors informed us that Miss Prior had the biggest damage rather than Mr. Pedrad, so that only means one—"

"Well I don't care!" I screamed, not letting him finish his sentence. "Tris is a strong person, i'm sure she will wake up!"

David nodded stiffly. "Well if that's what you want, Mr. Eaton."

I calmed myself down. David told something to Matthew and the boy nodded. Matthew pushed David's wheelchair toward the door and before leaving, they say their goodbyes. A few seconds later, Christina came back with a doctor and a nurse behind her. Christina raised her eyebrows as she gave me a skeptical look. I just shrugged. The doctor and his nurse continue to check on Uriah and told us that he can be out of this hospital after a few days. Christina asked for Tris' condition and the doctor gave us a apologetic smile.

"To be honest to all of you, I'm not pretty sure about Miss Prior's condition. There's a slight chance she'll ever wake up." The doctor say before he left. Leaving a distraught me, Christina, and Uriah behind. I hear Christina sob and I can see from the corner of my eye that Uriah is comforting her. I went next to Tris and sit next to her, holding her hand tightly, praying that if I do it hardly, Tris would come back to life. I know she would. I just have to wait.
