Chapter # 4 Treat from The ENEMY?

he walked a little further, as it was getting dark outside, he was cold and tired.

his lips were blue and he was quivering weakly.

If it was not for the excitement of being a hero, he would have worn a warm coat to prevent this violent weather.

in this dark hour, he saw a light of hope or more like a Bakery.

The wide banner on the entrance of the bakery read, 'Dupain-Cheng sweets and bakers.'

he entered the Bakery and was hit by the warmth that tingled his cold skin, he felt relaxed.

On the counter, an old lady was standing. she looked at him with a concerned gaze.

it was obvious, he looked hideous.

he wrapped his arms around himself.

"son, how can I help you?" the lady greeted him.

"Ahem... I will have some hot cocoa and macarons." Plagg pinched him from an inside pocket.

Flint yelped in agony.

the lady looked back at him, "Yes son?"

"and also a cheese sandwich."

he waited several minutes for the lady to return.

he faced the window of the bakery, trying hard to think of a strategy to defeat the Akuma.

"sir here your hot--" he turned around to face Agreste Jr.

her smile fell and replaced with a grimace. they locked the gaze for a moment.

"Emma you have not given our customer their order." her grandma patted her shoulder.

"Ohh... yeah, here." she handed him his package.

"I have not seen you before, are you new here?"

"Yeah, I am new." he smiled at the old lady.

"then you must be our Emma's classmate."

"yeah," he rummaged through his pockets for money. then the reality dawned at him he had forgotten money.

his eyes widen and he looked at the lady.

"What happened son?" the lady asked.

"I---ha--have forgotten money at home." his eyes fell with humiliation.

after a moment of silence, he looked up at the lady.

she smiled at him, a warm smile which can melt the ice of anyone heart, and then at Agreste Jr., she looked worried, why the heck she looked worried for him?

"it's okay, son. you are a friend with our grand-daughter, consider it as a treat from us." her grandma has a heart of gold specially for anyone affiliated to their grandchildren.

and also, he looked he has swim a lake filled with ice.

"But I can't take it with giving you money." he placed the package back on the counter, "I don't like taking favor." and he had a prominent conceit to last him a lifetime.

"It's not a favor Flint, like grandma stated it's a treat." he looked astonished. is this the same girl he had fought in school? he was not excepting Agreste Jr., Of all the people to say it.

"yes son, We will be happy to give it to you."

and also he felt Plagg tugging at his pocket to take the offer.

so, he hat to put his self-respect at the side and take the offer.

Wow, Mother would be proud to know that he had taken a treat from the enemy.
