In the dining room, Marinette walked downstairs to the table, Sabine get a small basket of dinner rolls and put it on the table and Tom pour some water in their cups.

Tom: Hey, honey. You doing okay?

Marinette: Yeah, I'm okay.

Tom: Okay. If something's troubling you, you can tell us, okay?

Marinette: Okay. *She feed Lucky, Lucky start eating his food. Sabine then get the casserole dish with the ratatouille in it, she served it to everyone's plate.*

Tom: Okay, let's eat. *They all start eating, Tom reach for a roll, he pass the basket to Marinette, she take a roll, and she pass the basket to her mom and she take a roll too, Marinette was moving her fork around on her ratatouille, her parents noticed her behavior.*

Sabine: Marinette, is everything okay?

Marinette: Do you ever get the feeling the person you really, really like sometimes have a change of heart after being rejected multiple times?

Tom: Is this about Adrien and what he did?

Marinette: Yeah. Now I feel like I was being hard on him when he told me he has a change of heart. And that he likes, likes me.

Tom: And do you feel the same way?

Marinette: Not anymore. But instead, he see as a different person.

Sabine: It's alright. Sometimes cute boys just whiplash your brains.

Marinette: What should I do?

Sabine: The best bet is to talk it over, help him move pass it. Or try to help him find someone who likes him like you did.

Marinette: Okay.

Tom: You decide what you want to do. And whatever you decide, we'll support you.

Marinette: Okay. *She start eating her ratatouille with her family. In Adrien's house, Adrien sighed and he sit on the bed and sulk, Plagg fly over to him.*

Plagg: Kid, I know what you did was stupid and unthinkable. But are you seriously gonna sit her and be all sad because of her?

Adrien: It's not because of her, I really thought she would still have feelings for me. But she told me she don't anymore.

Plagg: Good thing Hawkmoth or Mayura didn't see you both reveal because they might take that advantage and hurt the people you love and care about. And you didn't take it seriously.

Adrien: I take things seriously.

Plagg: Not entirely true. *Adrien sighed.* Now the real question is: What are you gonna do now?

Adrien: I don't know, really. I don't know what I'm gonna do now. I have to make things right for her.

Plagg: Don't go all desperate and demanding on this one.

Adrien: I'll try not to. *Soon, the door knocked.* Hide, Plagg. *Plagg hide in his jacket.* Come in. *The door opened, it was Nathalie.* Yes, Nathalie?

Nathalie: Adrien, just a reminder that dinner will be ready in 1/2 an hour.

Adrien: Okay. Is father joining us?

Nathalie: Not this time. Work is keeping him up at the moment.

Adrien: (As always.)

Nathalie: Tomorrow night he'll join in.

Adrien: Okay. (He'll probably just make up an excuse to not show up tomorrow night, I know it.) *Nathalie leave the room, Adrien get Plagg out.* I have to fix this between me and Marinette.*

After dinner, Marinette finish up her ratatouille, she drink the last of her water.

Sabine: Honey, that was delicious.

Tom: Thank you. Here's your cake, Marinette. *He put the slice of wedding cake in front of her.*

Marinette: Thanks, dad. *She was about to take a bite, but she stopped.*

Tom: What's wrong? Don't you like cake?

Marinette: I'm kinda full. Can I save this for school tomorrow?

Tom: Sure. I'll pack it up for you, along with your lunch.

Marinette: Okay. *She get up, take her dirty dishes, and go to the kitchen and put the dishes in the sink.* I'm gonna go finish up whatever homework I have left.

Sabine: Okay. *Marinette head up to her room, Tom and Sabine are still concerned about Marinette and what's going on.* Think the talk isn't helpful?

Tom: I'm sure it is. Just give her some space, let her deal with it on her own. She'll be fine.

Sabine: Okay. *In Marinette's room, Marinette finish up her algebra homework and study for her science test tomorrow.*

Marinette: Okay, so multiply the denominator and whole number, then add the numerator. *She write her answer down and move on to the next problem, Tikki watched her.*

Tikki: Did you get the cake?

Marinette: I didn't bring it up, Tikki. Tomorrow at lunch you'll get a bite.

Tikki: Okay.

Marinette: Here. *She reach for her plate and get a chocolate chip cookie and feed it to Tikki.* Have a cookie instead.

Tikki: Okay. *She take the cookie and eat it, while Marinette keep working on her homework. Soon, her phone ringed. She reach for it and see who's calling her. It's Luka.*

Marinette: Luka? *She answered it.* Hello?

Luka: Hey, Marinette. You got a second?

Marinette: Sure, what's up?

Luka: I know I asked you to go to the Fall Festival with me this weekend. I was wondering, if you're not too busy tomorrow, you wanna go ice skating with me tomorrow?

Marinette: Uh, sure. If I have no homework or anything else going on for that matter, I wouldn't mind going.

Luka: Okay. Great. I'll get you after school.

Marinette: Okay. Bye.

Luka: Bye. *They both hang up and Marinette get back to work.*

Tikki: Think this should be a good thing for you. If you spend time with Luka, this will help you get over what happened with Adrien.

Marinette: Maybe you're right. But Tikki, one question. Did you knew Adrien was Cat Noir the whole time?

Tikki: Yes.

Marinette: When?

Tikki: When you were fighting off Dark Owl.

Marinette: You knew the whole time?

Tikki: I had to not tell you. We can't say who the other miraculous holders' identities. You'll put others at risk by Hawkmoth.

Marinette: You're right. Guess you're right.

Tikki: Thank you. Think tomorrow will be okay?

Marinette: I don't know. With Adrien start to question me if I still have feelings for him, I doubt I'll be avoiding him, no matter how long it'll take until I forget about what happened. In the meantime, I'm trying to move on and focus on what's more important: school and being Ladybug.

Tikki: That's good to hear. *Marinette finish up her homework and get to studying next.*
