Carly was running around the house putting on decorations with her mother. The 5 year old knew this was a very special birthday because today was his birthday. Mikasa couldn't believe that the little girl was growing on that day too. Eren Yeager was a busy man because he was a filmmaker.
But not just a filmmaker, he was famous and a talented one. He had won multiple awards in the field and most of his films were big box office hits. She was so proud of him. She had to give him a special gift on his birthday. She had bought him a new digital camera for his work.
She also had another surprise for him, she was pregnant with their second child. As they finished putting on balloons and the food on the table. She and Carly decided to rest after their hard work.
Her daughter was named after her mother in law, Carla. Carla was a nice woman and she took Mikasa in like a daughter after Eren brought her home from college during Christmas.
She then married Eren after college graduation and had a happy life with him. She was an actress and an author. Sometimes, she would work with her husband on her films.
Suddenly, she was called by Carly. "Mommy! Can you tell me a story?" she asked.
'What type of story, darling?' Mikasa replied
'About how you and daddy met.' she answered
'I thought you knew already.' Mikasa said
Carly nodded as she had never knew the story of her parents meeting. They were a sweet couple in Hollywood but no one knew the history of their relationship except themselves and their close friends.
'Well it started like this. Mommy was dating a boy named Levi during college…'
"9 Years Ago"
Mikasa was walking on a street thinking about life. Her grades had been going down lately. Her boyfriend, Levi hasn't done special her rather than holding hands and hugging. She doesn't know if their relationship was real or not so she decided to find him and ask.
It was so cold during that time and a sweater couldn't fix the job. She went to one of the classes that Levi always hangs out. She can't wait to ask him. They were both smart and were called by others as 'Humanity's Smartest Couple'. She would always get No.2 while Levi gets No.1. They would always study together but then one day he stopped hanging out with her.
As she reaches the door knob of the classroom, she saw the door was opened a bit and took a little peek.
She couldn't believe her eyes. Levi was making out with someone else, Petra. Her heart shattered into a billion pieces as she ran away crying. She went somewhere private to cry and let her anger out. 'What the hell, Levi!' she thought.
Her life had started becoming into a mess because she had no parents. They were missing before she was 3 years old. She was taken in by her closest relatives, her uncle's family. They were nice and her cousins were the only friends she had. Her grades were good during high school. She was invited to this college after they saw her good results.
Now, her grades had gone worse due to Levi not studying with her anymore. There was flood of tears coming out from her eyes as it drops to her shirt. Suddenly, she could hear a voice of a boy.
'Hey miss, are you okay?' asked the curious boy
'Yeah, I am.' as she wiped off the tears from her face.
'Well, I think crying doesn't make you okay.' he spoke
'Why do you want to know, Mister Curious?' she asked him
'Well for your information, my name is Eren Yeager and I know that a girl crying isn't something normal.' he answered
'Oh, my name is Mikasa Ackerman. Nice to meet you.'
'You look cold, here let me give you this.' as he unwraps a red scarf from his neck to put on hers.
'Thanks, I guess. So when do I have to give this back?'
'You don't have too. Its cold here everyday and plus a woman like you crying makes it even colder.'
Mikasa made a small smile to the joke he made. He looked so handsome and he was kind. She suddenly had a feeling for him but she couldn't do that now. She had to take some time alone first before having a relationship again.
He kissed her forehead and said 'I'l be going now. So, are you going to that party tonight? he asked
'Yeah, I might. Just find the girl with the red scarf that used to be yours.'
'Ok, Miss Ackerman. Goodbye.' He turned back and walked away. He felt so dumb not asking for her phone number if they don't meet again but it was too late.
"Back To The Present"
'And that Carly, is how I met your dad.' As Mikasa finished her story to her daughter.
'That was romantic mommy but you guys didn't kiss' Carly said
'Well that's another different story. And this time, ask your dad. I forgotten how our first kiss was.'
'Okay, mommy.' A sound of the front door opened and Carly went straight there to greet her father.
'Happy Birthday, daddy!' she surprised him.
'Carly ! I missed you so much. You look so big than before, darling.' Eren said
'That's what you always say, daddy! Daddy, follow me!' she pulled her father's room to show the dinner they had made for him.
He was surprised to see his wife and daughter did for him. He kissed Mikasa and hugged her. Mikasa knew this was the right time to tell the surprise.
'Eren, I got a present for you.' as she brought the camera box to him.
'Oh Mikasa, you shouldn't have bought me that. I already have you guys. My family is the best present I got for my life.' He said
'Well, Eren. Speaking of family, I'm pregnant.' She told him
'Mikasa, thank you.' he kissed her a lot of times and went down to her stomach to kiss it.
'Mommy, I'm having a sibling? Yayyyyyy, I'm gonna play Barbie with her or him.' With a big smile on her face she said.
'Daddy, can you tell the story about your first kiss with mommy?' she continued
'Well Carly, I'l tell you after we finish dinner. Okay, sweetie?'
The family ate their dinner happily. Mikasa was glad she was with the man she loved. The daughter she had. And this time they were going have another addition to the family.
