And Then I changed.

Four

It was lunch and we sat at our regular table outside the school. Everyone was quiet today. I think for the first time since we all befriended each other Tris has skipped school. Or something has happened. She hasn’t returned any of my calls or text since yesterday.

“Have you heard from her?” Marlene asks and we all looks down

“No. I come right to voicemail” Uriah answered and we nod in agreement

“What do you think she up to?” Zeke says

“I have no bloody hell”

“I was thinking of going home to her after school” Christina says and a chourus of yes and agreements are met.

We were now standing outside her two stories house. tha garage was closed so we walked up to her front door and knoked.

“Yes?” her father answered

“Is Tris here?” I ask as I step forward

“No.. You haven´t heard?” he said quietly. Tris mother comes and stands next to her husband with a tear strained face

“Heard what?” I asks as the worry is beginning to eat me alive

“It´s best you come in” Mr Prior says and let us all in, we glance at each other worriedly and went to sit at the sofas in the family room. Caleb was there rolled up to a ball with his face buried in his knee sobbing. Something was definetly wrong if Caleb was sobbing

There was a long silence

“So is Tris here?” Zeke suddenly asks. At her name Caleb peered up and saw us for the first time.

“No…” he said quietly as tears flooding down his cheeks. Suddenly two police officer was walking down the stairs

“Thank you mr and mrs Prior. We will do everything in our power to find your daughter.

“Where is Tris?” Uriah asked and pouted like a baby

“There seems to be so that miss Prior has disappeared. Who are you exacetly?” one of the police men asked

“We are her best friends”

“Great. Did you notice anything different about her the last days?” the other one asked

“No, but yesterday she talked to Myra and Molly” Christina said. I was just quiet. She was missing, gone

“Is that a rare thing?” the first officer asked

“Yes, they didn´t get along. They weren’t friends” Lynn said

“That’s weird… Since the two girls also is missing and we thinks they were together at the time” officer two said.

“Thank you for your help, and thank you mr Prior” they said and walked out. Andrew Prior stood up and walked up the stairs, mrs Prior was sitting on the sofa a arm around her son.

“I don´t know where she can have gone… Her car was gone when I come from work, and it was still gone after dinner, first I only thought she was with some of you but the clock was thicking away and the night had come, I know sometimes she gets hime late, but in the morning her bed was still untuched so we called the police. She was seen just outside Indiana at a party last night and then she just disappeared with two of the girls” Nathalie tells us

“Oh my god…” Shauna whispears.

“Any way, you guys should go now, you have plenty of homework” she said, always the perfect mother

“I will personally call you when we hear anything” I nod and we walk outside
