Chapter 9
Epilogue, around 5 years later. Tris: 20 Tobias 22 (around)
Tobias POV
"You ready? We have to go now." Tris is always taking her time getting ready. I don't want to keep the kids waiting, they always want to see Tris.
"Ok ok, i'm coming. Hold your horses. I'm sure the kids can wait one second, we have more than an hour to read one story to them." She makes the job sound a lot
more boring than it actually is: So, basically, after college Tris and I are still dating. We both got a job working with deaf children, which is pretty awesome. They're all
really sweet, they love to learn and hang out with us. We moved into a nice apartment together, and we're pretty happy. We work 4 days a week, doing everything from
signing books to children to teaching sign language to just playing with them. It's a lot of fun, and the pay isn't to bad either. We've been planning on opening our own
little store so we could have more freedom with the job, but for now we work for our boss Joanna.
"Hey kids! You ready to read?" I sign to them. They all clap happily, pulling Tris away from me to the reading circle. I know they like her more than me, no doubt
because she's prettier and funnier than I am, but she never admits it. I smile as she laughs with the kids. One day, she'll make a wonderful mother.
"You're very lucky, you know." I jump at the sound of Joanna's voice.
"I know, she's perfect." Just watching her laugh makes me happy. I want nothing other than to be with her for the rest of my life.
Tris POV
How am I going to tell Tobias i'm carrying our child? I love children, he knows that. Will she be deaf like I am? Most of the children in our store are deaf, but some are
like me: partially deaf. I love them all equally, and they all know it. Tobias finally joins us. He's better at teaching them ASL and I enjoy "reading" to them. So, during
story time, I know Tobias is sitting with the kids, admiring me as I sign. So, I decide to be brave as I sign something I know he'll understand:
"Cute Blue Eyed Boy, I'm having a baby." And I start to cry as he signs back, "Mysterious Deaf girl...I love you."
I honestly have tears in my eyes. Sorry if that made you cringe or if that made you cry, but I think it's adorable. I made this chapter because I realized that a lot of people liked this story! I liked it to. In the future, there might be another chapter, but for now the story of The Cute Blue Eyed Boy and The Mysterious Deaf Girl are over. So, I hope you enjoyed that last epilouge, make sure to review what you thought of the chapter. Thanks, bye!
