Merichat ~The Journey ~ Completed

~chapter 1~ Moving

It was a sunny day in New York city as marinette made her way down the sidewalk , passing many shoppes and restaurants.

It's a shame I will be leaving all this in a few days. Marinette thought to herself as she continued walking. Her parents were very nice people but she couldn't understand why they wanted to leave New York ?

Marinette! Sabine yelled to her from the upstairs apartment wanting her to come help pack. Marinette slowly walked up the stairs as she was trying to take it all in while she could . She was going to miss New York .

As she opened the door of the small apartment she was welcomed by large stacks of cardboard boxes ready to be moved to Paris and put away in there new home. 

Marinette was happy for her parents but sad that she was leaving all her friends behind , she barely knew how to speak any French and wasn't sure if she would make any friends at her college because of it. Her parents were very encouraging and constantly reassuring her that she would be fine and make lots of friends. It was totally normal to be nervous about moving somewhere new as it would be different from New York.

Marinette went to help her mom put stuff away in boxes, there was lots to do before they moved the following week.As long as her parents were happy she was happy. Her dad was the one who wanted a bakery just a little bit bigger than there current one and her mom just wanted to relocate and since they both went to paris a couple of years ago and liked it , they thought why not move there ? Marinette had never been as it was a business trip her parents had to take .

She carried two small boxes to the kitchen drawers and began packing the silverware and dishes making sure not to drop anything and succeeded!

And in just a few short hours they had packed up the kitchen, dinning room and living room .

But Marinette still had some stuff to pack away in her room and help pack up her parents room , then they would be done and on there way to Paris to begin there new life and start there new business.

Days seem to have flown by and soon they would be boarding there flight to Paris France , her new home !

As They boarded the plain Marinette knew this was the last time she would see New York for awhile, she wanted to come back and visit in the near future. Soon she and her parents where in the air and on there way to France. Marinette realized , she was almost on her own in a new place , without her friends to comfort her but at least she had her parents , and family ment everything to her !

There flight landed and as they were unbording the plain she had an uneasy feeling about her body , the airport was filled with tons of people all from different places , each one going somewhere and doing something. It was a lot to think about but still the thought went throughout her mind . Her parents called a taxi and they all got in and were now officially on there way to there new home in Paris France !

Marinette knew a lot of things about Paris as she did her research and tryed to learn about the new place she would now call home , but it was hard to call it home as she hadn't ever been there , yet the excitement of living in Paris was exciting but kinda weird . But o the adventures she would have .

As she looked out the taxi window she saw many tall buildings and crowds of people , soon the car came to a stop in front of the bakery that they would now call home . It looked small from the outside but when they opened the door , the smell of bleach and cleaners
hit them like a ton of bricks, but at least it smelt clean . It was very clean and empty. It was already for them to move in !

Marinette made her way up the stairs to her room , but when she got to the upstairs living area it was just one bedroom and a bathroom, where was her room ? She looked to her right and saw a smaller stair case that looked like it led to the roof , she went up the stairs and opend the trap door revealing a bright pink room with a loft bed . COOL , said Marinette in an excited voice , she climbed up to the bed and there was a trap door above her head , she pushed it open and went up onto the balcony , this house seemed to be full of surprises and she liked that ! It felt more like home the longer she stood there looking out over the Paris sunset , it was gorgeous but then she missed her friends and remembered she started college in 3 days , but the sooner the better .

Her parents soon came up to her room and she showed them her balcony and all the cool features her room had , her parents smiled at her and she felt at peace .

Than they went downstairs and placed the boxes in there proper places to be unpacked the following days . The bakery had most of the kitchen supplies from there old apartment bakery in it . However the bakerys kitchen was much bigger than she imagined, her and her parents loved there new home , but Marinette was still uneasy about being in a new place with loads of people that were all different from her and from the way it looked to her , college would be a living nightmare , she hoped she would make some friends , maybe if she was lucky she would meet someone who spoke English and befriend them . But it was still all so new to her . But with her parents there for her , she felt comfort! She was now at her new home
