After our class, I made my way to the post office to start my shift, since I work from 6pm to 8pm and my patrol is from 9pm to 12 am. Before I went to my locker, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and saw the girl from my class.

"I noticed you've been watching me throughout class." She said with a frown.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." I walked away only to be stopped by the girl.

"Tell me. Why are you so interested in me?" She asked.

I sighed. "Alright. I want to know your connection to Ladybug."

The girl's eyes widened. 

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"Let's not beat around the bush. I know you're Ladybu-" I stopped when she put her hand on my mouth.

"Not here. Let's talk somewhere private." She said.

I nodded. We went to the back of the school.

"Ok. You're right. I am Ladybug." She said with her shoulders slumped in defeat.

"Alright. I won't tell anyone. Just tell me how you became Ladybug. And how you and Chat Noir first met. And I mean everything."

She told me everything. From when her kwami, how she met Chat Noir, their first fight against the akumatized stone-themed villain, Stoneheart to her first interaction with Hawk Moth and her vow to protect Paris from him.

I thought about it.

"Man. I know you and Chat told me about this but this is crazy."

"Yeah I figured you'd say that." The girl sighed then she gasped. "Where are my manners? I didn't introduced myself. My name is Marinette Dupain-Cheng."

"Dupain-Cheng?" I asked with an eyebrow raised.

"I'm half French and half Chinese. My mum is Chinese and my dad is French."

"What a coincidence. I'm half French too. But I'm half  North American. My mum was French and  my dad was North American. I use to live in Detroit before I moved to Paris with my godfather." I said.

I looked at my watch and cursed. "I'm gonna be late. I got to go!" I ran

"Wait. Where are you going!?" Marinette shouted.

"My part time job. Nice knowing you, Marinette!" I replied before running away.

I reached to the post office and changed to my uniform. A black shirt with short sleeves, blue trousers and back shoes. I was about to leave the locker when I ran into a man in his late 30s with black hair, grey eyes and was wearing a black suit and tie. His name is Victor.

"You're late." My boss said with his arms crossed.

"Sorry. I got caught up by an old friend." I replied apologetically.

"Well. Don't let it happen again. Now, I need you to deliver these packages to these addresses. Can you do that?"

"Oui, patron" I said with a salute.

"Good. Now get going." My boss replied and left.

I sighed and sat down on the bench. This is going to be a long evening.
