Eren: Damn! I can never outrun you!

(Y/N): That's a shame, I even gave you time to run

Suddenly they both saw Mikasa and Karla who was laying on the couch

They quickly dropped the bags and rushed to them

They both kneeled and (Y/N) placed his hand on Karla's forehead

(Y/N): You are burning up, what did you do?

Karla placed a hand on (Y/N)'s cheek and the other on Eren

Karla: My dear kids...

She closed her eyes and passed out

(Y/N) held her hand on his cheek and a drop of blood fell from his eye

Eren: Is she ok? (Y/N)!?

(Y/N): She just fell asleep

Mikasa: I talked to her about everything that happened, that's why she weakened, it was a lot to take in.....

The whole ambient just got quieter

(Y/N): I see....

Eren: Is she going to be all right!?

(Y/N): Yes Eren, calm down

(Y/N) picked Karla up and placed her on a bed and tucked her in

He stood kneeling in both knees next to the bed where she was standing and he was holding her hand

Mikasa: (Y/N)...are you ok?...

(Y/N): Yeah....I'm fine.....

Mikasa left the room and went to Eren

Mikasa: You see this?

Eren: Yeah....is not the usual him....

Mikasa: I know....It's not usual for him to be so sentimental.....

Eren: True....and he kneels....I don't know why but....everytime he does it, I feel....weird....out of place....he doesn't do this often either.....

Mikasa: Maybe she reminds him of his own mother....

Eren: You know anything about her?

Mikasa: No.....I just know that she died.....

Eren: Oh......what about his father?....

Mikasa: That I know nothing.....he never mentioned him.....

Eren: Hm.....

(Y/N) got up and left the room where he faced Mikasa and Eren who were staring at him pitifully

(Y/N): Something wrong?

Mikasa&Eren: No....

(Y/N) passed by them and sat on a chair at the table

Eren went in the room to Karla and Mikasa sat next to (Y/N)

Mikasa: Can I ask you something?

(Y/N): Sure

Mikasa: I noticed that you aren't kneeling too often, why?

(Y/N): I consider kneeling a very powerful act of respect, love and devotion, and I don't plan to do it in front of everyone

Mikasa: Oh...I get it now....but what if you ever exhaust yourself, or I don't know, you get hurt so much you cannot stand anymore, its much easier to fall on your knees, is it not? And sorry for the very situational examples.....

(Y/N): It may be.... But I won't fall so easily

She got up and hugged (Y/N)
