(Newts POV)
Thomas won't solve this riddle. If he found out that she was alive, he'd never want to talk to me again. Not that I care but I like the company.
"I'm leaving, see you, Thomas," I sighed and walked out.
"See you... You're coming back, right?" I didn't answer him and I left.

After a few hours of walking, I found her. Brenda.
"So what'd you want, Bitch?" I don't know what really happened but I hate her.
"Hey, no hard feelings okay?" I looked at her and sighed.
"No hard feelings? No hard feelings! You sent me a photo of my sister, whom I thought was dead!" I screamed into her face, then I remembered we were still in public.
"I'm sorry okay! They really did only kill a few people though, Jorge was killed.." I felt bad for her, but that's what she wanted. I needed to bring her somewhere private.
"Come on, we're going to my place. We can't talk about this in public." I take her wrist harshly and start dragging her.
"Hey, I can walk on my own you know!" She struggles to break free but I kept an iron grip on her.

"Tommy, I'm home!" I yell as I walk into the front door.
"Be there in a second babe!" Shit, I only have a little time to hide Brenda before Thomas sees her.
"Brenda," I whisper, "go into Aris' room!" I push her to the door quickly and run to the kitchen.
"Hey Newt, I think I found out your riddle... but I have something I should tell you as well." Those two sentences terrified me.
"Tell me, who do you think it is? And then, you can tell me whatever it is you need to tell me." I try to stay calm even though it's really hard.
"I think it might be Brenda," I stare at him, "but that's part of what I needed to tell you..." I roll my eyes at him.
"I know that you're still working with WCKD and that Brenda is alive. I know you're on the Bliss, I don't know where you hid it. I know you're not telling me as much as you should be and I know that you were avoiding me for all these reasons." Thomas just looks at me wondering how I figured this all out.
"How did you know?..." I let out a little laugh.
"I knew because you can't hide anything from me. I'll figure it out soon enough, and I did."
"Okay, well I should go... to work." I sigh and gesture him for the door.
"Goodbye," he says and closes the door behind him.

"Aris is such a neat freak!" Brenda walks out of his room and walks over to the kitchen where I'm sitting.
"I know, I know. But where is the Bliss? We need to find it before he comes back." I stand up and start looking for the bottle in the drawers and cabinets.
"You're so clueless," she laughs, "It's in your bedroom. most likely under his side of the bed." She starts walking towards the door and I follow her.
"Why am I trusting you?" I walk in and shut the door.
___
The front door opens.
"Newt! I'm back, and I brought Minho! I'll be in my room." Aris hollers.
"Okay!" I simply say as I touch around bottle under the bed, "Found it!"
Brenda jumps up, "Take it!"
"What?"
"Take the pills!"
"No!"
"Just do it!"
"Fine." I open the container and take two pills.
___
I'm in the kitchen again with the bottles of Bliss in my lap when I hear the front door open yet again.
"Hey Ne- Brenda?" Thomas walks in confused and angry.
"Hey, Thomas, how have you been?" She fake smiles and starts putting the Bliss in her bag.
"Fine.. how'd you get that?"
"Newt found it..." I smile at him and look away.
"Newt, get over here. NOW."
"No."
"It's me or her, choose." This should be easy, I should run into Thomas' arms and kiss him, but I don't. Instead, I stare at Brenda. She has all of his treatment in her bag, If I go with her, I'll have two months worth of Bliss. But Thomas never cared to ask if I would like to be cured...
"Give me two days." I finally say.
