You rushed out to meet your three best friends, Mikasa, Eren, and Armin, for your birthday.

Frantically responding to their text messages, you assured them that you were on your way, even though you had just boarded the bus.

Eren gave you a familiar stern look, clearly accustomed to your tardiness. Armin looked surprised, while Mikasa remained unaware of your arrival.
