Divergent High

Chapter 33

Tears are still streaming from my eyes as Christina drives me back to my place. My heart is pounding with rage. I should be mad, angry, even screaming.

Why can't I stop crying?

Christina silently pulls into the driveway, and parks the car in the garage. Before getting out, she reaches over and gives me a small hug. "Aw, baby. Don't cry. He's just a stupid boy. You deserve better then that! Don't let one guy out of seven billion make you cry."

I smile at her, but the tears still fall. "If he was a stupid boy, then I must have been a stupid girl, giving my heart to him."

Eventually, we get out of the car and stalk inside the house. I sit on the leather sofa and cuddle in my favorite blanket. It was purple with little animals stitched in gold (looking like constellations) all around it. My mother had stitched it for me when I was born. The memory of my mom causes another tear to fall down my cheek.

"You want anything to eat, Trissy Christina calls out. I can hear her rummaging through my fridge.

"No, you're welcomed to eat whatever you want though. Just clean clean up." I go back to sulking under the blanket.

Christina stays with me for about three more hours until she decided to go home to take care of Will. During this time, we watched two of my favorite movies, Scary movie 2 & An Imperial Affliction. When I lived in Indiana, my friend Hazel and I used to always go see An Imperial Affliction almost every single Saturday. It was one of the many things we would do with her friend Kaitlyn. Then, I moved to Buffalo with my family and came to Chicago on my own. I've always wondered how Hazel has been since I've moved...

When I'm about to go to sleep, I get a phone call. I pick it up and read the contact name.

Tobias

I hesitate, not knowing what to do. He's probably calling me to explain, and give me a huge apology. There's only one problem to this...

I don't want to hear him.

I hit "END" on the call and let my voice mail go. Not even three minutes later and I get a voice mail from him.

"Hey Tris, it's Tobias. I'm just calling you to tell you, well,

I'm sorry. I didn't want to go to the movies with Lynn, but she didn't give me a choice. I was afraid that if you heard a secret she accidentally heard me tell Zeke, you would leave me forever. I see now that I've made a huge, HUGE fucking mistake. Call me back, please? Just give me a chance."

I knew there was probably more, but I close out the voicemail anyway. Tears slip down my face, trailing to the floor.

Is this what real love feels like?
