Eren's POV

Miss Polly leads me into the classroom and told me to sit at a table of four. Already, there was 3 kids there. I was the fourth one at the table. I shivered when I walked over there, and I took a seat like a good boy. We both sat in silence until a loud bell suddenly rang. It echoed in the air, and Miss Polly was in front of the classroom- smiling. 

"Good morning class! As you all know, I'm Miss Polly. Class, I want you all to introduce yourselves to each other at the table. And, tell them what you want to be when you grow up."

I looked at the 3 other kids at my table. 2 were boys and 1 was a girl. "M-My name is Eren... and... I-I wanna be like Dad when I grow up. Working in a big building." I smiled with pride pumping out of my chest when I thought about Dad.

The girl smiled and pushed her black hair aside. "I am Mikasa, and I do not know what to do when I grow up.

Next to me, the boy with blonde hair chuckles and showed his bright blue eyes. "A-Armin is my name... and I wanna be an explorer when I grow up!" But the boy in front of him scoffed, chuckling. "Hey, don't make fun of me!" Says Armin, but the brown-headed boy just laughed.

"I'm Jean! I wanna be the most popular boy in the whole world! And I wanna have a lot of girlfriends! And I wanna- ow!" I gasped to see Mikasa holding her hand on Jean's neck. "Hey! You big dummy!"

Mikasa looked away and sighed, saying nothing. Armin looked towards me with a smile on his face. "Hey, Eren, wanna be friends? I don't like jerks like Jean. He's not a good friend. I think he would be lonely in class."

I nodded my head, grinning. "Yeah, let's be friends." I then turned to Mikasa and smiled to her as well. "You too!" Only she nodded her head in response. 

Jean scoffed and looked away. "Tsk... I hate kindergarten."

"This is your first time here..." Armin says gently, rolling his eyes. "Oh! Miss Polly! W-We're done!" He jumps in his seat with his hand raised high. 

Miss Polly smiles and walks over to us. "Alright then, here's another task: tell each other something about your family. In a few minutes, we're gonna play some games with everyone." Armin then quickly sits down, staring at the table. 

Jean simply laughs and points to me. "You, go first. I wanna hear what you're gonna say."

I looked down, thinking about Dad. Without Miss Hanji, she wouldn't be my mommy! "I-I have my dad, who lived with me every since I was little. M-Months ago, I-I met my new mommy. I-I think they're having a girl! D-Dad said a baby girl."

Armin smiles and pats my back. "Ooh... you got a sister then!"

"Sister...?" I tilted me head, trying to think what a sister meant. "What's that?"

"A sister is a girl that shares the same mommy and daddy as you do."

"But... my real mommy was gone a really long time ago... this one is with my new mommy..."

Armin nods his head gently, understanding it all. "Oh... a half sister... that's a sister that shares one parent. In your case, you and your sister share the same daddy!"

"Ooh..."

But Jean was being a big meanie to us, mostly towards me. He laughed heavily and pointed towards me. "Ha ha! Your daddy hates you! He doesn't like you!"

"T-That's not true!" My eyes were burning too much and I had to wipe them. There was some sort of water there... "D-Dad loves me very much! He doesn't hate me!"

"Then why is he replacing you?" Jean grinned, giggling. "Was he happier when he met your... new mommy?" I gasped when he said that, and it was true. Ever since he met Miss Hanji... he was happier and always kissing her. "That's what I thought. He doesn't love you. He's replacing you."

"Not true!"

I yelled, almost crying. I... I wanted my mommy... and I wanted my dad... I want the both of them... "He's a little baby!" Jean continues, and Miss Polly tried to keep my temper down. But I wouldn't let her. Jean made me too... too angry!

"I-I want my mommy and Dad!" I cried out, trying to hide. I hate school... I hate it!
