First thing's first, I'm the realist. No just kidding. First thing's first, I want to thank you guys for over 100 views. That's just amazing.
The truck skidded to a stop.
"There's a diner over there. They're nice Lions who don't look at us with disgust so does anyone want to use the restroom?" Jake asked.
"Move over!" Mikayla said to Winston. He opened the door. Everybody got out of the truck except Jake and me.
"So, is Ruby okay? After, you know, our little quarrel?" I asked.
"Yeah. She's a tough one. Don't worry about her. But worry about me."
"Why?" I asked.
"Because my heart is in love. But I don't know if it has won the girl's heart."
"I'm sure it has."
"Free, I love you."
I didn't know how to respond. What do you say when someone tells you they love you?
"You know what Jake? I love you too."
His face lit up. I don't want to let him down. I don't love him that way. I love him as a friend but there's no going back now. I held his hand. It was rough from all the farming he must've done. The doors opened. Sam and the others came in.
"I still can't believe she didn't let us order food." Mikayla said.
"It's against the law to give us fancy food like what faction people eat!" Carly said frustrated.
"So she lets us use the restroom but doesn't let us eat? It's ridiculous!" Mikayla continued ignoring Carly.
"Yeah! Doesn't that count as discrimination?" Winston said angrily.
"Guys, be quiet. They might be listening." George whispered.
"Who?" Carly asked.
"The Divergent." George said.
"What does that mean?" Mikayla asked.
"I can see why she's not in Sharp anymore." Sam said.
"Shut up. I'm thinking. Well, divergent means different-" Mikayla started.
"Wow! She's a genius!" Sam said sarcastically.
"Divergent, in this case, is another word for Genetically Pure. It also means the government." Jake said. "Guys… Little problem. Babe's refusing to move. We're gonna have to get out and walk."
So how do you feel about Free and Jake?
