It is a good thing I do not remember my dreams,

Levi starts.

I often have bad ones. Mostly I do not remember what occurs within them. This is good. Sometimes I wake up and I have a sense that I have had a strange dream and that is all. But this morning I woke up and found I had been crying. Erwin asked me what was the matter. I said to him, I do not know. I only had a sense of waking and missing something greatly. I cannot remember what this thing was.

I did not say to Erwin, but I did think maybe it is because there are many different thoughts inside me at this time. I am sick with worry over the gala in the Interior although I know it is mighty childish to do so. Erwin has reminded me many times that I am the strongest, yes, and that I have nothing to fear. But Erwin does not know what it is to be mocked.
