Chapter 3:
Four years ago:
A woman woke up with a massive headache. The woman scanned the room she was in after her sught and headache settled.
"So your awake now?"
The woman looked at the man who enetered the door. The man had platinum blonde hair, was bearded and also wore glasses.
"I thought your eyes are blurry? You could see me even without glasses?" the man asked. The woman hesitated but answered
"I could see you but anything farther is a blur to me".
"Ah so your nearsighted. Well enough of that do you remember me?" the man asked.
"Am I suppose to know you? I'm sorry but I don't really have any recollection of anything even my name."
"That's alright I just asked to make sure if you do remember me. You don't have to force yourself to remember I'll tell you everything I know of you. I'm Zeke and your name is Ashley Craige" Zeke said.
"what was my relationship to you?" Ashley asked with curiosity and caution.
"We worked together. You were really smart and a very devoted soldier. You were sent years ago to Eldia as a spy and you were injured by the Eldian demons while trying to escape but luckily we were able to save you but unfortunately not your lover" Zeke explained in a slow mourning voice.
"My lover? I had a lover?" surprised with another fact that was said.
"Yes we were kinda on bad terms since I didn't agree with your choice, but I agreed in the end just to get you back here of course with your lover but because of those devils we couldn't save him" rage could be heard in his voice when he started mentioning the devils.
"Your baby is still alive when we checked though" he said in a thankful voice.
"Baby?!" Ashley was surprised yet again with the facts that has been thrown at her. Her brain was still trying to process the fact that she had a lover. Zeke placed his hand on top of Hange and softly said "Ashley your pregnant. You can take a break and join us again once your healthy and the baby is born, but if you don't want the child it's okay too"
Ashley was deep in thought before answering. Though she has no memories of what she was like before, she doesn't wanna kill an innocent life especially one who hasn't been able to see the world or feel love. With that thought in mind she answered with a determined voice "No. I wanna keep it, at least to honor my lover and I don't want to kill an innocent life who doesn't even know anything about the world"
Zeke smiled. "Ok"
Her bump appeared earlier than anticipated which the doctors presumed that she was probably pregnant with twins. Ashley studied since there was nothing to do but she was careful to not stress or harm hermself because of the babies. Months later Ashley gave Birth to twins. She named the male one 'Samson Farlan Calypso ' and the female one 'Leigh Isabel Calypso '. She didn't know where she got the idea of middle names but it was as if those were to honor two precious people she knew. She gave them the last name Calypso since apparently that was her lover's last name. Ashley was really smart so it didn't take her a lot of time to learn what she needed and even improved their technology. Ashley also noticed that her body has been drilled with skills that was not similar to the Marleyans but she ended up ignoring it.
Ashley was later assigned with the task of getting news and reports from the Eldians since she was more stealthier than the other soldiers. She didn't got caught but eventually was found out and was even trapped by the Eldians. Luckily she was able to escape with the help of Mark.
It was nightime, she was on a wagon and was headed to her temporary home near Eldian outside the walls on a territory untouched by titans. She couldn't help but think about the raven haired man earlier. He resembled her kids. Both Sam and Leelu had raven her colors like him. They also resembled faces, Leelu having his eyes and mouth but with her nose, eye color and facial structure. Meanwhile Sam had her messy locks, eyes and mouth but the eye color, nose and facial structure like the man earlier. She couldn't help but wonder about her lover which died.
"I should ask Zeke about my past lover when I geet the chance" she thought.
Her thoughts was disturbed when the wagon stopped by a two story wooden house. The door opened and two small figure ran outside followed by a woman in her forties. Ashley bent down and caught the two kids and lifted them up.
"Welcome back mommy! " the two child greeted with Sam's being louder than Leelu's but both contain the same excitement and happiness.
"Welcome back Miss Ashley" the older woman said.
"Thank you for taking care of the kids while I was gone" Ashley thanked the woman.
"No need it's fun taking care of them. Come to me when you need" the older woman bid farewell and left.
"I didn't think you'd still be awake at this time" Ashley said with a surprised face but with a voice that showed she was hoping they would.
"We wanted to wait for you so we could sleep with you" the two said and gave puppy eyes to beg for permission .
"Aw how could I say no to these eyes" "Alright" the two cheered after hearing her response.
Ashley watched as her kids were slumbering beside her. Their chest rising up and down as they breath. Her heart was filled with emotions and she thought that for this kids future and happiness, she will be able to do everything. Even go against the whole world. She went to sleep peacefully forgetting about the raven haired man she met earlier.
