I dedicate this chapter to OmirahPatterson.

  Not the story, or the book, just the chapter.  Thanks for your excellent suggestions.

   I chose your suggestion, "Am that Unlovable?"  for the title. Wow, I could not have gotten it done without your help. Thanks so much!  Now, the story finally has a title.

  

  Nino's  POV:

  I shook my head.

 I felt ticked off.

 How was I supposed to refrain from killing him?

  "Why that ##^*!"  I spat out.


  Nino's POV:

  I dialed my buddy, Adrien.

  Perhaps, he could give me advice.

   "Adrien, hi, it is me, Nino."

   I noticed he appeared to be a bit quieter than usual.

   Odd, I thought usually he is so high strung.

    What happened to this guy?


   Nino's  POV:

   "Adrien, tell me I am not losing my mind."

    I still received silence over the other end.

    "Adrien, I need your help." 

     I heard him respond.

    This time he asked, "Is everything alright with you and Alya?"

    "Yes, it is great!  No, listen, man.  Marinette is all upset and..."

      I heard Adrien gasp as if it just dawned on him Marinette was hurting.

      I listened as he said some words I dared not to repeat.  

      "Whoa, man!  I did not know Chole did that to you.  She is such a  *^*^*^*^  "  I said a few choice words myself. 

         I heard Adrien break down over the phone.

        I determined to do what it took to bring the spark back into his life.

       What could I do?


        Nino's POV:

         Then, it dawned on me.

           I had the best idea ever.

           "I will make an appointment for a haircut and a shave. What do you say, man?"

            I grinned when I heard his reply back.

           Thank goodness some of the old Adrien was still in there.

           I hung up and called the salon.

             Time for operation Adrien's makeover.

              Yes, I thought, bro time is on now!

             I knew Alya would probably think it silly.

           Who cared?  As long as it cheered up Adrien that is what counted.
