From the Perspective of Love

School

Insight to this chapter: Maria Public School is a school for the lower class families who live among filth. It's like the Whitechapel (in the Jack the Ripper times) of schools.

Erens's day went quietly along. A little too quietly for Eren,  but then again he always had something dragging him down; something that resisted to make him feel at ease. Eren let himself relax. "Just once in my life will this opportunity come. Don't fret over," he assured himself. Fourth bell for the day rang,  and Eren made his way to his lockers. Armin, who had caught up to him from his Math's Set, called him over to library. He looked quite nervous, but Eren dismissed it as exhaustion. "Are you keeping up with your Maths Set Armin? You don't seem too well..." Eren asked worried for him.

"Oh, yea it's been a bit difficult, but I'll manage! I was hoping you could help me? Like right now possibly?" Armin asked, rather enthusiastically. Eren's eyes widened,  then sighed as he nodded at Armin,  and followed him. He knew why he was like that. He was too easy to read. But he rather go with him than waste time worrying about cleaning his locker again, which he would be blamed for in the end anyways.

Rose Academy was ruthless place. He was lucky enough to have his friends,  Armin and Mikasa, along side him. They all grew up together and even went to the same school district, Maria Public School.

Unfortunately for him, Eren looked like he was from the East,  to the stereotypical tan skin to the dark brown hair.  The only thing that differed was his eyes; his sea-green eyes on a warm sunny day reminded anyone of the ocean. And as beautiful as it sounded, it attracted the wrong pair of eyes; whether it was from bullies or... otherwise. Regardless, he couldn't let it rule over his life. He wouldn't let it rule over his life.

The school had its rules; do or die. Mostly, do what the upper class tell you to or prepare for the very worst. Obviously doing was more humiliating than dying, so he stood his ground. And this is where we end up on the present.

Now you might think he's a defenseless, poor innocent boi (A.N: Which he totally is at times lol), but he was clever enough to avoid certain people, and challenge others if needed. Obviously he'd end up getting the blame regardless if he initiated the fight or not, but thankfully due to his honor roll, he was able to soften his punishments.

"Schools are shitty like that, huh?" Eren thought.
