The real Chapter 15
A/N: Hey readers! So as I said, I am introducing a new character this chapter. The names may or may not be hard to pronounce. I really have no idea. I'm basically making them up as I go.
Averyanna POV
Today is the aptitude test. I'm nervous. Who isn't? I know I don't belong in Abnegation, it just isn't me, but Abnegation's all I've ever known. Even after the war two years ago we still went back to the factions. Which was a smart idea in my opinion, but back then I didn't have an opinion. I was only 14 then. Merely a naïve little girl.
Even though I know I don't belong in Abnegation, where would I go? Abnegation is just too stifling for me. Too stiff. Ha. Yea. Stiff. Way to add to all the other people already calling me that.
"Hey!" I turn around to see my friend, well acquaintance, Isabella walking quickly to catch up to me. Since it's too selfish to run.
"Hey." I reply.
"So, the aptitude test is tomorrow."
"Yea. It is. You ready?"
"Are you ever really ready to take the test that could determine the rest of your life?" She asks as we walk home.
"Well….no, but it's not like you have to pick the faction that the test says you're best for. It is a choice. I mean most everyone gets the faction of their origin anyway."
"What do you think you'll choose? I mean, what if you get Abnegation, would you stay?"
"Isabelle, a lot of the people that transfer get the faction of their origin on their aptitude, they still transfer anyway though. I don't know really. I mean, you know Abnegation isn't for me, it's obvious to anyone that can see."
"It isn't though Averyanna. Not to anyone that doesn't know you that well. I can hardly see it and we've been acquaintances for our entire lives," she says stressing the word.
"I guess, and I haven't made a decision yet. I don't know. I don't want to leave my family. What about you? Have you decided?" I ask as we reach her family's home and start walking up the sidewalk to her door.
"I guess I wait until the test." We bow to each other before I turn around and begin my short walk home to begin supper.
My parents come home as well as my younger brother and we do our usual routine, asking everyone how their day was, and my brother begins helping me prepare supper.
We eat our plain food and my parents send my brother and I to bed. As I ascend the stairs I hear my parents begin to whisper, no doubt talking about me and the aptitude tests and if they believe I'll stay here. I don't stay to hear what they have to say about it.
I go the rest of the way to my bedroom and close the door. I change out of my plain grey dress and plain grey leggings I to another plain grey dress that is looser and acts as a nightgown. Sleep soon takes me, but not before I think about my choices. Where am I to go? I believe my mother knows and sees that I can't stay here. Will my brother and father forgive me if I leave?
A/N: so this chapter is long overdue and I'm sorry. It's also so short. My life has just been super busy but now I hope I can post chapters sooner and maybe longer ones. I almost have another chapter to this story written.
Review please!
