That day humanity remembered...the terror of being controlled by them...the humiliation of living like birds in a cage

"See you later Eren"
"Eren..wake up" On a meadow far from the city lay three children, a curly-haired little girl with long hair down to her ears and beautiful green eyes resting on freckled cheeks, another little girl with beautiful long hair blacks and Asian features and a child sleeping under a tree who did not seem to respond to the call of the curly hair. "Eren!" immediately the boy's eyes widened "Oh!" rubbed his eyes and looked carefully "Reo?" The girl took him by the shoulders trying to get him up but the boy seemed very dazed, was he having a nightmare? "We have to go home, it's getting dark, isn't it Mikasa?" the girl in question nodded "Reo.. did your hair get longer?" the boy asked examining the face of the girl in front of him "what are you saying? I cut them weeks ago because they were too long, are you groggy?" the boy finally stood up and spoke again "no..it's that it seemed to me that I had a very long dream...but I can't remember it..." They started to walk but something was not yet clear and it was Mikasa who noticed it and looked straight at Eren and she asked in amazement "Eren...why are you crying?" the boy in question touched his eyes and noticed that they were actually wet "uh?... what?" The three walked through the city to go home, it was late and Reo had to go back or else Mr. Arlert would have worried. Sulky and ashamed by what happened, Eren said "You mustn't tell anyone that I cried", Mikasa answered "I won't. But crying for no reason, what if you let your father see you?" "do not be silly! Do you think I can say such a thing to my father?!" Suddenly a figure came forward, it was Hannes who, as usual, was a bit tipsy "Eren are you crying?" "Mr. Hannes!" "Did Reo turn you down by any chance?" Hannes asked laughing, his cheeks were red and this didn't go unnoticed by Eren. He and Reo at Hannes' joke started to blush slightly, as usual Eren got pissed. Reo, on the other hand, didn't understand the meaning of the joke, I would never refuse him, she told herself. "huh? why should i cry? Ah, that stinks of alcohol!" then Eren watched the rest of Hannes' mates and saw everyone drinking "drink again?" "How about joining us?" Reo sighed because she knew how this discussion would end, but she knew Eren was right "no..um..but the job?" "Today we are guarding the gates. We stay here all day and therefore, just as we get hungry, we also get thirsty. And the fact that something alcoholic might be mixed into our drinks by chance is a trivial matter." Eren didn't want to hear about it "and do you think you can fight when you need to?" Hannes looked at his companions with a confused air "when will it be needed?" Eren got even angrier and exclaimed loudly "what the hell is he saying it's obvious! The moment they break through the walls and break into the city!" "Hey Eren, don't yell like that!" The two continued to bicker for a while longer, Reo watched the discussion silently contemplating whether to intervene to stop Eren or not, she knew how important these topics were to him, he had always told her about them so she didn't want to intrude. "Even if we can't get out of these walls...here we can eat, sleep and live...but this life...isn't it like the one made by cattle?"
