As soon as you got back, you could see that Levi was, sitting down at his usual squad table while he applied butter onto the bread. He ignored your presence, his eyes glued to his own food. 

"I'm going to leave the food here..." You whispered to Hanji as you quietly walked away from the area.

And before you set your foot out the room, Levi sighs, causing you to pause for a moment.

"You have nowhere to go?" Levi asks, still eyeing at his succulent bread.

"... What?" You turned your head towards him.

"U-Uh, Levi, before she ran away, she used to live here." Hanji explains to him.

"Oh... I see." Levi nods as he took a bite from his food.

"Forget about what I asked." He says as he rests his elbow on the table, leaning forward against the table.

You briefly watched him sit alone at the usual table. You remembered the time when Petra and Auruo would always sit beside him since he sat at the end. You sat across from him, Erd and Gunther sat across from each other as well. You remembered of the fun jokes Auruo would bring up, Petra complaining about how much they suck, Levi not giving a shit about it. Those were the days.

"Ah, I feel so tired." Hanji announced as she took a chair and sat across from Levi, being leaning backwards, leaving one arm hanging while the other rests on the table.

"Then get some sleep. Don't come and bother me." Levi replied as he took another piece of bread and spreads butter onto it with the butterknife. 

"Eh?" Hanji looks at Levi in surprise.

"What?" Levi glances at her.

"Is that why you barely eat my food? 'Cuz there was no butter?" Hanji points at his bread.

"Bread tastes like shit without butter. It's stale." Levi commented.

"It doesn't make sense, you love stale food."

"It's fucking disgusting, what're you talking about?" Levi raises a brow in defense.

"You never add anything to your tea. No sugar, no honey, just plain tea, with plain bread, and plain soup." Hanji recalled.

"Shut up." He mumbled, growing tired of her.

A short moment of silence fills the room until Hanji breaks it.

"Soooo you didn't notice anything familiar with that girl, huh?" Hanji laces her fingers together, leaning forward to support her upper body using her elbows.

"Am I supposed to?" He gave her a quick glance again.

"N-No, I was just wondering."

"Then don't bother asking me ridiculous questions like that. I'm eating." Levi shuts her out completely, ignoring her existence, and focused on filling his empty stomach.

Later on, you entered the cell room and lay on your bed, feeling your chest with one palm. You closed your eyes, feeling the small rapid beating of your heart. You took a deep breath and exhaled.

"Hmm." You hummed in relaxation.

"What's wrong?" You could hear Eren's voice as he sat on his bed with chains securing his wrists.

"Today.... I saw Levi in town." You started off.

"He saw me...." You opened your eyes, staring blankly into the ceiling.
