The Rumbling Adventures of Ereh Iyegah

Chapter San-jyu-nii: Don't Be A Creep, Please

3rd Person POV

After Levi and Hange left, Erwin and Pyxis talked about the situation happening right now. Erwin still hasn't told Pyxis of his plan. Matter of fact, he doesn't want to at the moment. Pyxis is a trusted friend of his, but because of that, he has to be careful of what he says to him if he doesn't want him to be in trouble. Well, knowing Pyxis, he'll be fine and be a drunkaholic old man like he has been.

"Don't mind me asking, but," Pyxis changed the subject. "will that boy really protect him?"

Erwin looked at him reassuringly. "Yes. And I can confirm this since I've seen him fight and beat even those older and stronger than him. You can rest assured."

Pyxis nodded. "If that's the case, then be it. I feel bad for him as he is my old student after all."

"He's an amazing kid. Too bad he just had an awful past. Had that not happened, I think he'd still be the same."

"You're right." Pyxis stood up. "I'm gonna go to the park. Protect this place and make sure the kid is safe and sound." He went to the door and opened it.

"Yes, you can leave it to me…" Pyxis left and closed the door. "...Commander." 

"*ACHOO!*" Ymir looked at Eren and saw him wiping his nose with a handkerchief. They're almost at the cafeteria after running away from Mikasa's sight. Hopefully, she won't follow them.

"You okay?"

"Y-yeah. Anyway, what are we gonna do after buying some food?" Eren put his handkerchief back in his pocket and also searched for his wallet there.

"Honestly, I don't know. Should we just stay here or go somewhere else?"

"Let's go somewhere else. Luckily, I know a place where we-" His eyes widened and a frightened look appeared on his face. He stopped walking. "We… uh…"

Ymir noticed this and also stopped walking. "What's up? Why that face?"

He looked at her, still with his frightened face. "I-i forgot… my wallet…" 

"Wallet?! Are you serious?!" He nodded. "Ahh, fuck! How're we gonna buy food now? You know I don't have much money to give you, right?"

"I'm sorry, okay! I always make sure that I have it before I go here." He felt a tap and he looked at his back to see who it was. "What?!"

"Woah, chill down there Eren." A tall blonde woman said. Eren instantly knew who it was.

Damn, she's really tall. Ymir admired the height of the woman in front of her.

"Oh, it's just you, Ms. Yelena." Eren said uninterested. 

"What do you mean, 'it's just you'? Anyway, looking for this?" She brought up a wallet and Eren immediately grabbed it. Tried to. "Be nice before I give this to you."

"Are we seriously doing this now?" She nodded. "Tsk. Ms. Yelena, give me my wallet. Please."

She smiled. "Now that's the spirit." She handed him his wallet and Eren took it. But upon doing so, they touched each other's hands and Yelena's eyes widened for a bit before going back to normal.

"What's up?" 

"Nothing." She waved her hands. "I should leave. I still have something to do in the bakery."

She started walking away from them when Eren stopped her. "Wait! Why are you even here in the first place? And did you come here alone?"

"I came here because your brother asked me to. And speaking of him, he's at the gate right now."
