Days passed and finally it's weekend. Things were a bit brutal for the last couple of days. The past two days happened to be combat practice. Eric paired Tris with Molly again and she beats her pretty bad. Tris ended up at the bottom of the scoreboard and bruises on her left cheek. Jack then again always got Eric's nerves for doing good and end up doing fifty to hundred push-ups every single practice. I still didn't get it why he always chose Jack, not Edward or Peter. He didn't even bother to talk to Al.
While not gave Jack a punishment, he will picked on me and calling me names every time he gets a chance. He divided me to another initiate or himself every time I paired up with Jack. I didn't complain nor Jack since he didn't want to do another push-ups or end up cleaning the toilet with his tongue like Eric said a few days ago. Goodness gracious I didn't have to do anything more damaging to his already broken nose, or worse, Eric doing something bad to me.
Four always reasons to Eric and told him that we should pick whichever partner we like to paired up with. But he just growled and confronted Four. Four on the other hand was patience and let him do whatever Eric wants to do. Despite I was pretty sure he could beat Eric in seconds. In fact he was the first of his class, and Eric came up second at the end of their initiation.
So it was good to finally have a break. I woke up early, went to the shower before anyone else awake and back to my bed again, rolling around and staring at the cold stone ceiling. I looked around my left to found Jack still snoring with his mouth open. I giggled and get up from my bed. I tucked him with his cover-up. I took my boots and walked slowly outside my dorm. I saw Tris's bed was already empty. I didn't notice that when I went away for shower. Maybe she already woke up before me.
I slipped on my boots and go to the Pit. It was a large underground cavern with uneven rock walls that raise several stories high. Narrow paths and steps are carved from rock and connect each other. The roof was made of glass panels. Above the panels of glass is a glass building that lets light into the Pit. There are blue lanterns dangling at long intervals above all the stone paths that grow brighter as the sunlight dies. All paths in the Pit have no railings and were narrow.
It was so early and I just see a few people around. Some just doing exercise, some just hanging around, and I saw a couple smooching or should I say eating each other faces at the end of the corner under the shade.
I went to the Chasm where Eric almost got Christina killed for hanging her at the edge of the iron rail for five minutes. I continued walking upstairs until I reach the top of the Pit. I haven't discovered this floor yet. I was hesitant at first, wondering if it was okay for initiates to come to this area. I shrugged and exploring around. I finally found a door that lead to the top of the building.
I was about to open the door when there was an announcement for Dauntless initiates to gathered around in the Pit. I immediately went back to the Pit and found out that it was now filled with parents and adults milled around. It was mostly the Dauntless adults and a few from another factions. All initiates were scattered around looking for their parents. I was so sure that today was visiting day. Peter stood with a tall man with busy eyebrows, and a short meek-looking lady both dressed in black pants, and white shirts. A Dauntless-born initiate with purple hair stood with a woman with a pierced eyebrow, and a tattooed father. Will stood with a woman in a blue dress, very young, similar looking; I bet she was his sister. Christina hugged a dark-skinned woman in black and white; and a younger sister stood beside them. Tris' mother appeared with gray slacks, and grey jacket buttoned at the throat.
Tris ran towards her mother, and tears were running down as she hugged her and collapsed onto her arms. They were talking and I saw Tris was introducing Four to her mother and they talked a little bit before Four left. I was there standing by my own self, and I know nobody back in Abnegation non other than Tris's Mom and some other nice women who took care of me after my parents died. Tris's Mom noticed she and me waved at me to come closer.
