Hours later...

Eren's POV

I got up from my seat, leaving my work splayed across my desk. I stretched in place for a few moments, then turned around and walked toward the staircase.

As soon as I was upstairs, I heard some slight rustling. I glanced at the couch, noticing Y/N tossing and turning a little bit. She was mumbling something, but I couldn't make out what it was. Is she okay?

I took a few steps towards her, and once I was close enough, I could see she was in distress while still being asleep. I could see beads of sweat on her forehead, slowly shedding down the sides of her face.

"Y/N?" I asked softly.

She kept on moving around and it got more and more intense with each passing moment. I can't wake her up because it could disorient her more. What do I do?

...








"...you'll never amount to anything..."









"...why was I cursed with such a stupid child..."









"...I wish I had a son instead of you..."








"...I should have given you up for adoption..."









"...you have ruined my life..."









"...I wish you were never born..."










My parents' voices suddenly got louder and louder.

I covered my ears, trying to drown out the insults.

I crouched on the floor and clenched my eyes shut, hoping that their voices would stop.

After a few moments, it suddenly stopped abruptly.

I slowly uncovered my ears and opened my eyes. I looked straight ahead and saw a young girl.

She was crouched on the floor; her eyes were red, tears streaming down her face, forming a small puddle on the ground.

She had bruises and cuts on her face, arms, and legs.

"...someone...please...help me..."

I got up from the floor, and so did she.

I took a step toward her, and so did she.

I held my hand out to her, and so did she.

I suddenly felt a strong pain run throughout my whole body. I looked at my extended arm, seeing an abundance of bruises and marks on me.

I fell to my knees, feeling overwhelmed with this painful sensation on my body.

Suddenly, I felt a large hand land on my collar.
