Caleb's POV
In a week, I will be choosing my faction, my lifestyle for the rest of my life, unless I become factionless or die. People say being factionless is worse than dying, so I would prefer to die instead of living out in the streets, starving to death.
I can't wait to get out of abnegation. I feel cruel saying that, but I guess I never fitted in, not really.
I always faked believing in selfishness, but Beatrice seemed to believe that I belonged here, along with the rest if the faction. But really, I don't honour selfishness, instead I honour intelligence.
Yes, that's right. On the day we choose our factions, I will choose Erudite.
I have been studying a lot in my room. School always interested me, but because I am naturally curious, I wanted to find out more. However, I had to hide the books from my family. Pretend I was going to stay at abnegation, my home. I didn't want to hurt anyone, but I had to follow my true destiny.
I have started to wonder which faction Beatrice will pick. I don't know if she ever fitted in here either. I am sure she won't pick erudite. I don't think she likes the erudite, or their leader Jeanine. So I won't see her again probably. Factions don't usually mix with other factions.
She couldn't be candor, because she can't tell the truth all the time. She doesn't value honesty enough. She wouldn't fit in at amity. So that leaves.....
Dauntless.
But the dauntless jump off trains, and buildings, and risk their lives. She could die!
But I can't change her fate. If she found out mine, I am sure she will try to make me stay, which shows bravery. I don't know if she knows it herself yet. And she might still choose another faction.
I can't spend forever worrying about her. I have got to make my own choice, I have to be brave, and pick erudite. Maybe I am part dauntless after all.
