Eremika:Memories From The Past

Chapter 21

"Eren! That's such a nice name!I am Mikasa Ackerman"she said enthusiastically.

The 10-year old male was taken aback by her enthusiastic behaviour.It seemed silly to him,getting worked up over such little things,but still he found this female in front of him rather interesting.

"Okay?"He said awkwardly which was more of a question than a statement.But as he finished his dialogue,his stomach growled.

Mikasa laughed at this a little.

"Are you hungry?"She asked in a teasing tone.

He just nodded.He was perplexed,why she was giggling and why she spoke in such an unreadable manner.

Mikasa got up,and then got him some leftovers from the previous  night,since there wasn't anything else.

As soon as the meal was made was available,Eren started hungrily eating it,that showed how hungry he was.

Mikasa gave a slight chuckle at his actions.

James had already called the police.Sirens could be heard in distance.

When the officers came,james told them that somehow he had managed to over power these three men,afterall he didn't want his saviour to be in trouble.

Eren was inside with Mikasa  and her Mom sitting in silence,well awkward silence to be more precise.

The police apprehended the three burglars,after appreciating James and thanking him.Apparently they were searching for them.

James came inside sighing and looked over to his family and the emerald-eyed kid who had just defeated three scoundrels and kind of saved their lives.

He was sitting quietly gazing at his Mikasa,Mikasa was doing the same,staring at him.

She couldn't help but feel amazed.She had never seen someone with such bright-green eyes before,and he had just saved them.She wanted to know more about him and make him her friend.

The male,was quite intrigued by her.Well he hadn't seen much world to know about different types of people,so naturally he was curious about this enthusiastic girl in front of him.

You could even call it attraction.He had never seen someone with such pale skin and beautiful dark hair.

But  both of their curiosities could not be quenched just by saying silent.

Mikasa's parents came to rescue this time.

Eren looked up to Mikasa's mother,who was smiling at him.He had never seen a lady smile at him like that,considering that he never met his mother properly.Naturally he was curious about her and her husband too,he was curious about this family thing too.

(A/n Chitanda Eru has entered the chat)

He had read about families,but the people with whom he previously lived,couldn't exactly be called 'family'.

"Eren was it?"James spoke up.

The boy looked up to him and nodded a bit

Then the silence fell again on them.Both of the parties didn't know what to say.

"So are you from the village?"This time the older female asked.

He shook his head in response.

This further complicated the matters,if he wasn't from these parts then how did he reach here?More important question Why doesn't he have any elder with him?
