Part 15

“ and this ..is the dining room !” exclaimed Andrew excitedly

“ and for what purpose does this ..dining room exist?” asked Eren

“ You eat here!” said Andrew

“ Eat?”  Eren raises his eyebrow

“ Yep. Breakfast, lunch and dinner . ” said Andrew

“ That many?” asked Eren in surprised

“ sometimes we have tea time as well and supper” said Andrew

Eren was speechless. How can one eat so many time in a day when he hardly had any food in one day.

“ come on ! There’s more room to look around !” said Andrew as he pulled Eren’s arm

“ There’s more ?” Eren’s eyes widened . “ Just how big is this place?”

--

“ this is the kitchen ! its where they cook our food” said Andrew

Eren looks around at the unfamiliar things around him.

“ and also ..the best place to find yummy snacks!” said Andrew with a grin as he climbed onto one of the high shelves

“   what are you doing?” Eren look at him curiously

“ Getting us some snacks. They usually keep it here” said Andrew as he scanned through the stuff on the shelves “ Found it!” exclaimed Andrew as he climbed down the shelves

“ What did you find ?” asked Eren

“ chocolates ~” grinned Andrew as he show Eren a jar of chocolates in his hand

“ chocolates?” Eren looked at it curiously

“ Its my favourite . Here try some” said Andrew as he opened the jar towards Eren

Hesitantly , Eren takes one of the chocolate and take a small bite of it. At that moment , the chocolate quickly melt in his mouth and he could taste the sweetness .

“ It’s good…” said Eren

“You can have more” said Andrew and at that moment Eren saw a hand snatching away the jar from Andrew. The same hand that pulled Andrew’s ears before

“ Oh no, young man. “ said Anna

“ Aww… mom… can’t I have one more ? please ?” whine Andrew

“ No. You’ll get way to hyper and refuse to go to sleep. Do you know that its way past your bedtime?” said Anna which causes Andrew to pout and give her the best pleading eye he could master

“ oh no…don’t give me that look” said Anna

“ Just one ? I promise I’ll go to bed right after” Andrew pleaded

With a loud sigh , Anna reluctantly allow him to have one more of the chocolate from the jar.

 “ Now make sure you brush your teeth before going to bed” said Anna

“ Okay !  ” exclaimed Andrew happily as he run out from the kitchen

“ I swear that boy is going to be the end of me” sighed Anna

“ He resembles you a lot though” said Eren which causes Anna to let out a small chuckle

“ well let’s get you to bed as well.” Said Anna

“ You don’t have to worry about me. I can find my own place to sleep” said Eren

“ Your own place ? and where should that be?” Anna raised an eyebrow

“ somewhere ..” said Eren

“ don’t be ridiculous. Besides Im sure Andrew would love having you in his room” said Anna

“ Eren ! come on , I have to show you my room!” Andrew’s voice could be heard from far away

“ see.. told you” laugh Anna

--

Eren stare up at the ceiling of Andrew’s room. He could hear the soft snores of the younger boy right next to him. Somehow , right after Anna had brought him to Andrew’s room, Eren ends up on  lying on a soft bed in an unfamiliar clothes which Anna called it ‘pyjama’.

“ You cant sleep with that clothes” said Anna

“ I don’t see the problem “ said Eren

“ No. That wont do.” Said Anna as she searched through the wardrobe and pulled out a blue colored piece of cloth.

“ You can wear this pyjama . Its quite big for Andrew but Im sure it will fit you just fine” said Anna as she handed it to him

 Eren couldn’t see the purpose why one should be changing clothes to go to sleep. He certainly never did it. Infact he felt rather uncomfortable in this new clothes . Not to mention the bed is too soft and warm for his comfort. Its not that he didn’t like it , but its just too overwhelming for him. He was used to the cold hard floor as his bed . Sometimes he ends up sleeping while leaning against the wall hard stone .

“ I cant sleep” he mumbled before deciding to walk out of the bed . He went to the corridor outside Andrew’s room. It was quite and there was no one there .

“ A little walk around won’t hurt does it ?” said Eren as muttered to himself

He walk through the corridor of the castle . At one point, he pass by a large window and he could see the beautiful night sky above him. The moon was shining so brightly and he could see the litter shining light scattered all around the sky. He never seen anything like it . The sky was dark yet it wasn’t the kind of dark that he was used too. It was warmer . Much more comfortable than being in total darkness back in the hole   

“ so beautiful “ said Eren before he continue his walk . Just then , the dim light from the moon seem to move. Perhaps it was a reflection or his imagination but out of curiosity , Eren followed it anyway.

He followed the light until it stop right infront of a door. He notice the door was decorated with beautiful snowflake pattern . Something inside him tells him that he should opened the door and he did .

As he entered the room, he felt a wave of nostalgia hits him. As if he has been there before . The wall was painted with soft blue and it feel soothing . He made his way towards a small shelves located at the corner of the room. He noticed soft toys arranged neatly on it.

“ I wonder what this is?” Eren wondered as he grab one of the soft toys and hold it’s little arm.

His eyes wondered towards the books . Out of curiosity he pick one of them and start flip through the pages. He could see a lots of illustration inside the book. It was in color and interesting at the same time.

“ this one looks funny!” said Eren as he giggled at an Elephant illustration “ I wonder what it is?” mumbled Eren and he notice there were words on the page right next to the illustration . “ I wish I know what it says” he sigh

 Just then his eyes saw a peculiar looking chair. With the book in his hands , he carefully climbed on it which causes the chair to move . It surprised him . It wasn’t long before he found that sitting on the chair as it moves back and forth was a fun thing to do.

“ This is fun” he let out a small laugh

At that time , something else caught his attention. He carefully climbed down of the chair and made his way across the room. His hands carefully examine the soft mattress. The feeling is almost the same as Andrew’s bed except this one is smaller.

A smaller bed . Perhaps its for a smaller person ?

But what caught Erens attention the most was the mobile right above it. It was decorated bunnies which reminds him of Jack . It wasn’t just the bunny that make it so special . At the same time , Eren could see small snowflakes all around the mobile.

They were shining . It was the most beautiful thing he ever seen. Unconsciously his hands went to grab one of the snowflakes away from the mobile.  

Eren stare the snowflake in his hand. He could see it little pattern and as he trace his fingers over it he could feel the feelings inside them. He could tell it was made by Jack and at the same time he could feel another person’s presence from the snowflake. It was much more warmer than Jack’s .

“ I should put this back” said Eren as he tried to place the snowflake back to it’s place . Thinking that he shouldn’t be intruding other people’s room . Just then a loud thud could be heard from behind him.

Panic and surprised Eren quickly turn his back towards the noise and he was meet with pair of sapphire eyes. It was a woman with blonde locks reflected like his own.

Slowly , she stepped closer towards him .

“ E..ren ?” she called out to him

How did she know his name? He certainly never meet her before. Eren felt nervous as if he was caught red handed .

The blonde woman reach out her hand towards Eren but before she could even touch him , Eren decided to make a run for it. He quickly make his way out of the room without realizing that he had taken the snowflake in his hands .
