The MIRACULOUS Next Generation

Chapter # 27

(The day when Agreste studio's caught fire)

Flint Joseph walked with a little limp in his left foot.

"ouch," he cursed as the burn on his foot ached with every steady step towards his room trying not to make much noise.

"Why didn't got that checked Flint!?" Comes a shrill voice of his mother.

"I was about to---"

"How many times do I have to tell you to stop acting like a five-year-old?" Lila scolded him.

"Mother, I was going to get---" he started but was cut off in a middle.

"you know how worried I was?" she said, with a neutral expression but flint saw a glimpse of remorse in her eyes.

"I am sorry," A ring of cell phone interrupts them.

"Excuse me, I have to take this," just as she came Lila was gone leaving her son behind her standing in a corridor along with his thoughts.

Flint sighed, even her mother was sometimes cold towards him but some moments like this made him realize that she does care about his well-being.

With a light smile, Flint walked towards his room door but flinched when pain shot through his foot. "I should have taken care of this sooner," he said under his breath.

"Hope I am not late Kaghami..." Lila closes the door behind her.

"No, my friend you are not late at all,"

"Why did you call me?"  Lila asked.

"I wanted to talk about the incident on Agreste Studios."Kagami gave her a piercing glare.

"What? you think I was responsible for that," Lila asked with rage.

"Who could have done it other than you?"

"Have you read the news they are saying that it was due to some technical and maintenance problems." She stopped to catch her breath. "and you think I would have done it? my SON was there, Kagami! as much as I hate Agreste's I love my son!"

"Technical issue or not but it was a great blow at Agreste's reputation in the industry." Kagami looked away from an angry woman.

"Whatever but call me next time when you have progressed further." Lila walks toward the door.

"Adrian, you okay?" Marinette asked her husband as he rubbed his temples.

"I am fine,"

"No, you are not, it is written all over your face."

"Am I  that obvious?" He loosened his tie.

"Sometimes yes you are," she said, smiling at him.

"I don't know how to handle this situation anymore." Marinette pulled his head into her lap rubbing his head gently.

"I know it's not easy, but Emma is safe and sound in our home."

"Yes, she is..."

"try to take some rest you are overworking yourself." she kissed his forehead.

"You are right." with that Adrian fell asleep right there forgetting all about the unfortunate events even just for some hours.

"what are you doing here?" Emma asked the feline superhero standing on her balcony.

"You know I don't like repeating myself." he gave her a slight bow, "I am here to meet my favorite damsel in distress,"  he gave her a bouquet.

"What is this for?" She said, fighting off her blush.

"My, my, am I making you flustered?" he wiggled his brows.

"shut up," she snatched the bouquet from his hands and smacked him with it.

"ouch, that hurts," he pouted to Emma he looked like such an adorable kitten, 'Wait what? bad Emma, you should not found this dork Adorable.' she scolded herself.

"What happened to you?" he snapped his fingers in front of Emma's face.

"Nothing---Nothing I am fine." 

"Alright, I should go now and you should take some rest to."

"Okay, bye," the cat-suited hero was gone within some seconds leaving her alone.
