{Marinette's diary entry intro: Birthdays are part of life, sometimes you celebrate it with a big party, sometimes you're not in a party mood and you want to celebrate it with family. But Nino wants to do it, he tries to convince his father to let Adrien have a party for his birthday. But what will happen if he has a way to make it happen, without anyone saying no otherwise?}
The next day, it was morning and Marinette got up bright and early for the day, she goes through the calendar and see a day is marked.
Marinette: Hmm, let's see... huh, it's Adrien's birthday today.
Tikki: Really?
Marinette: (walking to her closet and seeing what she can wear for the day) Yeah, he reminded me when his birthday is.
Tikki: Have you gotten him a present?
Marinette: (getting her other essentials, walking to the bathroom) Yeah, I did. I just made him a scarf. *She gets ready for the day and then comes out all dressed and refreshed. At the Agreste Mansion, in Adrien's bathroom, Adrien is brushing his teeth. *
Plagg: Happy birthday, Adrien! *He brings a piece of Camembert cheese wrapped with a red bow. *
Adrien: (disgusted) Ugh, Plagg! Get that filthy piece of Camembert out of my face! *He plugs his nose. *
Plagg: Huh? *He then eats the cheese. * Mmm.
At the Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie, Marinette is walking down the stairs with a gift in her hands while her mom is in the kitchen drinking tea, Marin taking one last bite of his toast with grape jelly, Bridgette putting her cereal bowl in the sink, and Timmy holding his lunch bag his mom packed for him.
Timmy: Thanks, mom.
Sabine: (rubbing Timmy's head) You're welcome, sweetheart. Marinette, don't forget to clean your room after school today.
Marinette: Mom! It's Friday, and I'm already doing something with Alya.
Sabine: Fine, I'll go ahead and clean it, but don't blame me if I come across any of your private stuff, like your e-mails, your diary--
Marinette: (makes a nervous face) Okay! I'll do it, I'll do it. *She grabs an apple from the fruit bowl and takes a bite of it, then goes up to her mom, gives her a kiss, and starts to leave. *
Sabine: Have a nice day, sweetie!
Marinette: (as she closes the door) Have a nice day!
Sabine: Hm. *She drinks more of her morning tea. In the Agreste Mansion, Adrien is eating alone at a big dining table. He looks sad. *
Nathalie: (walks in) Your schedule, Adrien. *She hands Adrien a tablet. *
Adrien: (takes it) Thanks, Nathalie. *Nathalie starts to leave. * Hey, um, my father get back to you about my birthday party? *His face lights up. *
Nathalie: (sighs) Well, um-- He doesn't think it would be a good idea.
Adrien: (turns sad again and speaks softly) 'Course not.
Nathalie: Happy birthday, Adrien. *She leaves the dining room. *
