Meanwhile, as time went by, Miss Bustier was explaining the last bit of details of the lesson.
Miss Bustier: And that everyone is the lesson of the Old Kingdom. We'll get to the Middle Kingdom tomorrow. Any questions? *No one said anything. * Okay, then. Now before we leave... *Soon, the bell rings and everyone starts packing their stuff. * Hold on, everyone. Before you leave, I have one more announcement to tell you all. The following Monday, I won't be in school on Monday.
Alya: What?
Marinette: Why?
Miss Bustier: I have a doctor's appointment to go to. So Monday, you'll have a substitute teacher. Remember that. You are dismissed, see you all tomorrow. And pick up your homework assignment on the way out. *They picked up their homework assignment as they walked out of the classroom and Miss Bustier erased the board and set up for her next class. *
Alya: Hmm. Guess we're learning about the Old Kingdom of Egypt.
Marinette: Yeah.
Alya: Oh yeah, forgot to ask you how Lucky's check-up up.
Marinette: It was good. He just has fleas, the veterinarian gave him a cone around his neck and some medicated flea shampoo to kill the fleas.
Alya: Oh. Hopefully he'll be okay.
Marinette: He will. *They stopped at the locker room and got their stuff. Nino and Adrien walked by. *
Nino: Dude, what's up with you lately?
Adrien: What do you mean?
Nino: I asked you what was wrong but you snapped like you were mad or something.
Adrien: I did?
Nino: Yeah. Did something happen between you and your old man?
Adrien: No. Just... something personal.
Nino: Okay. Well you know, I'm your best friend and you can tell me anything, you know?
Adrien: Yeah, I know. 'Just can't tell you everything.' *They walked up to Marinette and Alya. *
Nino: Ladies.
Alya: Hey, Nino.
Marinette: Hey.
Nino: Hey, listen. Think we can hit up your house, Alya?
Alya: Sure. What do you say, Marinette?
Marinette: Wish I could, but my parents have a wedding to cater. So, I'm by myself when I get home.
Nino: Really?
Marinette: Yeah. They say I can have friends over when they're gone.
Alya: Okay. We'll go to your house then.
Nino: Sweet.
Adrien: Wish I could come over, but I got fencing practice.
Nino: Bummer.
Adrien: Yeah. 'Hopefully, fencing is the only thing that's happening today and nothing else.'
Alya: So, got any more pumpkin spice macaroons?
Marinette: Not today. Maybe tomorrow.
Alya: Okay. Gotta get to my locker, I'll see you in class.
Marinette: Okay. *Alya walks to her locker as Marinette gets her science textbook and she closes her locker too. Everyone else heads to their classes next. *
Adrien: (thinks) 'I don't know why I'm feeling like this. After Ladybug's rejection, I've been dealing with a little bit of mood swings lately. Then, I'm starting to develop new feelings. Not sure how, but they're there for some reason. I don't know what's wrong with me, to be honest.'
