The Way We Once Were (Eremika Modern AU)

Chapter 12

Mikasa's POV:
Few months have passed, the trial against Mike ended yesterday of course he got away with it even though all the evidence were against him but looks like being known in the business world pays off.

I can't lie I am so frustrated about what happened, he got away with it despite the hell I have been through on top of that he made me look like I just made that up for money in front of media so his image will be the same, Levi and Eren wanted to continue exposing him but I just had enough I don't want to hear his name or have to deal with him any longer they didn't like what I said but they accepted it.

Also this semester was my last one so now I work as a graphic designer the environment of the place I work in is so good the people there are sweet and try to help each other even though there's a little competitiveness but that's the normal and also I have been selling my art from time to time in art galleries they have been doing great selling well each time

Eren got back to Dina soon after I talked to her and his relationship with her is kind of  good

Annie and Armin are planning for their wedding they agreed to make it a small wedding and they wanted to get married soon so they started preparing for the wedding we have been helping them both but since it was a small ceremony they wanted to take care of the most part

I only work four days a week so I was drawing so I can participate in an art gallery soon I only had one left to do then I got a text from Eren

Eren:
Mika are you free now?

Yeah, is something wrong

Eren:
I am coming

Ok

I washed my hands and waited for Eren to come few minutes have passed and he came with a nervous look on his face
"Hey what's wrong?"
"Zeke called me he's getting married next week and he wants me there he also wants me to spend the few days before the ceremony with him"
"And what did you tell him?"
"I said that I'll see if my boss can give me few days off but honestly I don't know I still can't forget everything and push it away"
"Eren it's not his fault and you know that, I don't know why you seem to have problems with him, Eren your brother needs you now and he wants to make everything right"
"I know Mikasa it's not his fault but every time I see him or talk to him I remember it all dad wasn't here for months, forced a new family on us to accept, mom was always crying her eyes out a..and I.."
"Enough Eren it's all in the past now, your parents are together like nothing happened you should bond with Zeke now he deserves that from you remember he must have also had a tough past without a father he's like you it wasn't his fault"
"I know" Eren sighed "Can you come with me then, I know I am asking for too much but I think I'll need someone with me and I can't ask Armin he's busy enough"
"It's ok Eren I'll check with my boss if I can take few days off you know I'll do anything for you" I smiled at him and he smiled back and pulled me into a hug
"Thank you Mikasa"
"Hey no need to thank me"
"So me and Armin were going on a double date tonight want to come, we'll go to a mini golf and then we'll go grab something"
"Umm I don't know I'll be like a third wheel to you all"
"Mika please we'd love to have you plus the three of us will get to hang out"
"Ok ok fine"
"Armin's driving so be at his place 7 sharp"

Eren then left I still have few hours so I decided to continue the drawing time passed quickly and the painting was over my phone rang it was Sasha

"Hey Mikasa how are you girl?"
"I am good about to get ready to be a third wheel in a double date" I sighed
"Then why did you agree to that.. wait you couldn't say no to Eren right?"
I rolled my eyes and stayed silent
"Mikasa are your feelins for him back again?"
"No" I answered quickly "it's just he did so much for me and it's a simple thing to do"
"Ok keep lying to yourself Mika"
"I am not lying to myself Sasha I have no feelings for Eren he's just my friend"
"Ok ok if you say so, I called to check how were you feeling since yesterday"
"I am trying to ignore it and ignore the fact that he exists"
"Haha that's my girl if he ever dared to come near you again give me a call and I'll come and kick his ass" I chuckled at what she said
"Ok so you have any plans for tonight?"
"Nah I will chill and watch some movies Nicolo is out of town so I am alone today"
"I'll see if I finish early I'll pass by maybe we can watch a movie together"
"I'd love that we didn't have a girls night for a long time"
"Ok then I'll make sure to stop by early"
