Screw the rules - Eren Yeager

PLEASEEEEEE, VOTE AND COMENTED!!!!

"How are you, S/N?"

S/N maintained a firm posture, forcing a small smile as she approached.

"I'm fine, Carla. And you?"

The older woman adjusted herself in the armchair, crossing her legs with ease.

"Very well. I didn’t know that you and Eren…" she began, raising a suggestive eyebrow.

Before she could finish the sentence, S/N interrupted her, her voice neutral, almost cold.

"We're not."

Silence hung in the air for a moment, but before Carla could react, S/N felt a gentle tug on her dress. Looking down, she found Ellie standing beside her, wide, bright eyes filled with the innocent curiosity of a child unaware of the weight of adult conversations.

"Mommy, water," the little girl requested, pointing toward the kitchen.

S/N gave a small smile and gently stroked her daughter's hair.

"Of course, sweetheart..."

It was only then that Carla noticed the child's presence. Her gaze fell on Ellie, and in an instant, her expression shifted to pure shock. The realization hit her like lightning.

The eyes, the expression, even the way the little girl furrowed her brow as she waited for her mother’s response… Ellie was a miniature version of Eren.

Carla’s mouth opened, but no words came out. Her gaze darted between S/N and Ellie, her mind racing to process this unexpected revelation.

A few steps away, Eren sensed the tension in the air and decided to step in. He walked over to S/N and Ellie with a calmness that suggested everything was under control.

"Just go straight ahead and turn right," he said casually, pointing the way to the kitchen.

S/N nodded and took Ellie’s tiny hand, guiding her gently to get the water.

Carla remained frozen in place, as if trapped in her own shock. Her eyes followed Ellie until the little girl disappeared through the kitchen door, her heart pounding in her chest.

When she finally found her voice, she looked at her son in disbelief. "She’s…"

Eren sighed, already anticipating the flood of questions. "My daughter."

The silence between them was almost tangible. Carla was still speechless, struggling to piece together this unexpected puzzle.

"But… how? When? And why didn’t I know about this?" Her voice was unsteady, filled with confusion.

Eren rubbed the back of his neck, feeling the weight of the situation.

"Look, I’ll explain everything later, okay? It was hard enough bringing her here, and right now, I just want to spend time with her."

Before Carla could press further, he was already walking toward the kitchen, leaving her standing there, still stunned, still processing what she had just discovered.

A gentle breeze rustled the leaves of the trees surrounding the park. The sky, once a clear blue, was now turning a threatening shade of gray.

Seated on a wooden bench, S/N and Carla watched in silence as Eren played with Ellie, the little girl’s laughter ringing through the air.

S/N had a faint smile on her lips, feeling a warm sense of comfort watching them together. Ellie adored her father, and Eren would do anything to make her happy. It was a scene that should have felt sweet and peaceful—but Carla, sitting beside her, didn’t share the sentiment.
