{ ♠ } ⎯ ❝ No, you’re so much stronger than me. ❞ Bertholdt mumbled sorrowfully and placed one of his hands against the smooth surface of her crystallized tomb prison. ❝I’ve heard the stories.. what you have done to those soldiers.. You don’t have to tell whether you liked doing these things or not.. I’ll never ask, Annie. I don’t care.❞

The young male straightened his shoulders and leaned forward, pressing his forehead against the crystal, olive-green eyes scanned Annie’s face, looking for a sign of life - and if she was listening to him. ❝ I don’t know if you can hear me but you are strong, Annie. I always had Reiner by my side.. but you.. you were always alone. I’m sorry, that you had suffer through all this all by yourself meanwhile I cowardly hid myself behind Reiner.. I lost myself.. even if it was just for a short while… I felt like I belonged here.. this place made me happy. Can you imagine that, Annie? Being truly happy for once in your life?  ❞

The shifter furrowed his eyebrows and began to slowly shake his head. ❝ I was so naive back then. I lost you. I lost Reiner. What was I supposed to do? Tell Reiner to get it together, convince Zeke to save you first? Maybe I shouldn’t have hesistated in Shigashina either.. maybe sacrificing Reiner would have been the right thing to do .. ❞  Bertholdt sighed sadly and took a step back. ❝ I’ve wasted my chance to prove myself, Annie. I failed to protect my friends.. failed to be a warrior.. I was unable to be the colossal titan.. I’ll never go back home. ❞

Bertholdt glanced briefly at his slender fingers and noticed that he couldn’t feel them anymore. He didn’t have much time left.  ❝ You’re still alive. Annie. Listen to me. You still have a purpose in this life. Please, promise me that you’ll come back home. Don’t give up. Never give up. Reiner never gave up on me. He never forgot about you. Annie. Please, come back home. He still needs you. ❞
