It's been weeks since the day I confessed to him, and yet we act normal. Its 5:45 and I'm still here at school studying.

Sigh.

"Guess I have to buy another study guide...."

I put my chin on my palm and I started to tap the pen on the desk. I'm done studying all of this, I can't wait to study another one...

"Mikasa?"

Someone called from the back, so I spun my head around to see Arlert.

"What?" I asked still cold as ever.

He hold out some notes. "Can you take this to Eren?" He said I stood up from my seat.

Yeah Eren is absent because he was sick.

"Why don't you do it yourself? " I said and he nervously smiled.

"Ermm....I'm busy right now and your the only student here so I have no choice.."

Sighing, I grabbed the notes then his face lit up.

"Thank you Mikasa!" He said while waving then walk out.

I put my things in my bag, I glanced at the notes and find a paper with his address.

And I went out.

"Its huge..." I said in awe as I keep examining the big house in front of me. So this is his house, wow.

I clicked the doorbell but nothing happened, then I clicked it again and still nothing then clicked it again.

'Coming!~'

A girl's voice? Wait, maybe its just his sister or his mother. Wait. Why am I nervous about this thing? I'm just giving-- delivering notes to him, that's all...

My eyes widened little when I saw her standing there on the gate. Saotome...

What is she doing here? Is she taking care of him?

"Mikasa, what are you doing here?" She asked.

I calmed down then held out the notes.

"Here, notes." I said then she grabbed it.

I turned my heels but she called me.

"Can we talk?"

*

I looked down as I continue to walk to my house. The talk with Saotome earlier can't get out my from my head. I reached my house, then I opened the gate. I opened the door then took of my shoes and neatly placed it at the shoe racks aside.

"I'm home..." I muttered although I know no one will answer me. I know that I won't see Dad holding a newspaper while sitting a sofa then said 'oh! Welcome home.'

I know that when I won't see mom preparing dinner and said, 'welcome home dear, dinner is ready..'

I know that my brother won't asked me, 'how's school?'

No one is here, mom and dad died, my brother is working in another country to raise me. I'm alone, and yet she told me that I don't understand what he feels.

That I'm not worthy for him because I don't understand him...

"Can we talk?" She called out then I stopped from my tracks then face her.

I leaned at the wall, I looked at her with the same expression as ever.

"What are we going to talk about, again?" I started.

"I know what happened..." She said making me sigh.

"Mikasa. I told you to stay away from him!" She shouted. I narrowed my eyes and looked down crossing my arms.

"I know that you already told me, but why ?.."

"Because you don't understand do.."

That caught me.

"Why?" I asked the same single word.

"When Eren was still a child he lost his parents, and so do I. And we're always right there for each other. So I want people to stay away from him. People that don't understand him. Because they can't help him, especially you, your not worthy for him because you don't understand him." She continued and all I could do was clench my sleeves and grit my teeth.

Stupid...

"Can't understand him....huh?" I said then picked my bag.

"Well if you said so. This is a waste of time go take care of him." And then I walked away.

I know that I understand him, so how come she said that so lightly?

She doesn't know me!

I understand him...

Right?...
