I frantically opened the door to Miss Bustier's classroom. As always, everyone's eyes turned to me. As always, I put my hand behind my head and began to say my excuse. As always, Miss Bustier gave me a smug grin as she shook her head.
I began, "Sorry! As I was walking, there was this dog on the street and I had to return it back to its owner! I thought I could walk to their house, but it turned out to be farther away than I thought so-"
As always, I looked towards Alya, to see her grin.
...
What?
Why?
Alya's smile had vanished, and instead, she gave me a look that I had never seen before. Hatred, disappointment, confusion. I stopped speaking. My eyes met hers for a split second before I remembered that I hadn't finished my excuse.
"Ahem, And..uh.. t-the uh... Yeah! My parents ended up taking the hamster back to its owner!"
Miss Bustier looked at me, confused. "Hamster or Dog?"
"Did I say hamster? I meant cat! Cat! Yeah! So.. s-sorry about that!"
"It's alright, please take your seat Marinette."
I turned to sit next to Alya so I could ask her what was troubling her. Had I done something wrong? It was only then that I realized. She was sitting next to CHLOE! I thought she hated Chloe! What?! I looked carefully for an open seat, only to find one in the back of the classroom. Yay.
