I stare at it in disbelief. Did Sasha lie? Is this some kind of joke? Is she involved in Jeanine's plan? Several emotions go through me; hesitation, surprise, disbelieve but above all; shock.
I read the back and see it's about Tris. I quickly browse through it and notice it's like a biography. It has her thoughts in it. It can't be. This must be a dream.
Sasha walks in completely relaxed. I brace myself for a confrontation.
'What's this?' I ask very angry. I hold up the book.
'A book silly! Duhh...' she says like it's completely normal. She doesn't take my threats seriously. Or doesn't she notice them?
'Yeah I see that but what is it about?' I ask with an angry voice. She frowns.
'Oh it's the book I told you about earlier today, remember? The guy you share your name with? It's about the main character Tris who is divergent and has to choose her faction dauntless, Abnegation, Erudite, Candor or Amity. She's divergent, chooses dauntless and falls in love with her instructor Four aka "Tobias"... Well it's a really thrilling book written by Veronica Roth, it's not just about love, I mean, there is also some serious stuff. It must be one of my favorites. The Hunger Games is actually a book too.' She walks up to the bookcase and grabs a book. I carefully follow her with my eyes ready to attack her. To her this looks completely normal. She doesn't know what that book is, to her it is entertainment. She hands me the book but I couldn't care less.
'Would you like to read it tonight?' She asks pointing at the Divergent book. 'I mean I was reading it actually and I am going to the book signing session tomorrow but it's fine because I have already read it once. I don't know if boys really like it.' she shrugs.
'Yes,' is all I say. Cold and bitter. I don't feel like giving her a longer answer. She is a big liar anyway. Or not? She doesn't look like she's lying.
'Okay mister Happy.' She laughs. Not a single minute she looked at me like she know who I was, she didn't look like a killer and I highly doubt it if she ever had a gun or the tiniest pistol in her hand. She'd probably freak out of she did. But then again she is a pretty devoted reader which is a erudite trait. I am confused by her character.
She points me the way to the guest bedroom. A room with a big bed, nightstand and simple white closet and a sink. There is no sign a boy has once slept here. I wonder what her brother is like. Is he just like her? It's to no importance right now.
'Good night,' she says, and she softly puts her long hair behind her ear as she leaves me alone. I stand there in silence, staring at the book of doom. I really hate reading but my curiosity takes over. I just must know what it says.
I read and read all night until dawn and then when I finish it I realize this is a very accurate description of initiation. But the war never happened, or atleast, not yet. We never had a war like that. Jeanine is still going strong. She never killed abnegation, not yet once again. The threats are getting worse and I'm sure it will follow soon enough. The book isn't one hundred percent accurate. Somehow that makes me feel a bit relieved.
And then it hits me, like a sticky leave from a tree; "you are going to an alternative past, a new reality. You'll be surprised by the reality of that place." Jeanine did know about the book, for sure. I am nothing but a character from a book, I am someone's wicked imagination. How much of my life is real? How much is me? How do I even know who I am?
I don't feel tired at first, in fact I feel wide awake. That's just my head. My head is about to blow up due to the crazy amount of things I've just got to process. My body is tired, so my eyes slowly start to fall down and make me finally drift off to sleep. A dreamless and weird sleep.
The next chapter is going to be fun hehehe. Well anyway please review and subscribe 3 I love to hear your opinions!
