Today is a day to mark with a white stone! I made myself presentable for the occasion. Perfume, floral shoes, light makeup, and a beautiful dress that turns. No, it's not winter, just early spring... And I'm off to see the flower of my life! Because I am! She finally deigned to answer me, at last! I was so happy that I didn't sleep a wink the night before we met. I might not have slept all week, but I need to make myself look good at work, even if it's boring... Even if I don't want to, even if I don't want to...

Finally, let's not talk about useless things! First, I'd have to calm down. Because if I jump in and out, hello discretion... Inhale, exhale... I have to control myself. I think I'm letting myself go too much at the moment, and that's not good. I'm gonna get in trouble if I keep this up.

With my purse in my hand, I look at the time again and go out. We have to meet in a small café where we can eat sweets and drink a little tea, or coffee, on the edge of the terrace. That should pass for a snack. Kyaaa, what the hell was that kya? Self-control! I knew not seeing her could prove fatal for me. Oh, well, she's not here yet, is she? That's good, I'll be able to book the tickets that way. I'll text her and quickly erase the hearts at the end.

After a few minutes, I see her arrive and signal my presence. After a moment choosing our drinks and sweets, we get to the heart of the matter. So I tell her that I could get in touch with Agreste as I work in journalism. Even though I don't have the responsibilities yet, I still have his home number and that of his assistant. Just by digging around a bit and using a few little tricks.

She tells me it would be good, even though she was able to get in touch with him a short while ago. Tss... Catch up with that damned Agreste for a few moments. Let him let me show my usefulness, hobo. I mean, I knew she had already made contact with him, but maybe it's useful, a number. But if she wishes to have any other information, I could pass it on to her, I have access to the files. She tells me she won't see any use in it. But I'm sure she'll get in touch with me if she doesn't find what she's looking for.

I also tell her that I saw a certain person she knew and treasured in her heart. Marinette Dupain-Cheng. A smile appears on my lips as I see her coughing. I know I can be helpful at times. I give her her personal information, for which she hides herself well from thanking me. Her eyes sparkle a little, and I think some mischief is going on. What you can see in the eyes is incredibly silly. Because I can't see anything. I'm trying to perceive his thoughts, and that for me is a success. Experience helps.

Although she is happy inside, she doesn't show it and decides to drift on a subject she loves, the little Agreste. How handsome he is, how great he is, how gnagnagna. Youpiyaaa I love so much the fact that she talks about him in front of me. I'm over the moon. Ahh, the sweet irony in my words. No, I can't see it, but I don't like little Agreste. He's weird. Way too weird. Does he seem perfect? It's creepy to know that. But I end up elegantly spitting out the contents of my mouth, because I was drinking, when I saw little Agreste getting out of his car and heading towards us. I couldn't stop my disgust from showing on my face as I could see Lila vanishing towards him out of the corner of my eye. As I wiped my face, and tried not to let my thoughts show through so easily.

I left a few coins on the table, and walked away towards them, as they themselves were heading into the car. I introduce myself warmly to him, while thanking him for taking care of MY friend. No, my eyes don't throw lightning bolts at him... Not physically, unfortunately. I hope that he will notice that he has disturbed us, even if I am the one apologizing on the pretext that I have to do something, I wish a good day to Lila, and also to little Agreste. Warm smile and cold look. I'm leaving before he can say anything more.

And to think that I had finally found a moment with Lila, the other has just ruined it. Even if she was really happy, it still disgusts me. It was supposed to be me, the person she was supposed to look at like that... Don't worry, Agreste, revenge is just around the corner.

And this is chapter 18, hello to you by the way.

So this chapter should have been done before, normally it would have been chapter 16, then 17. But the words wouldn't turn to my advantage, so here it is now. I've always wanted to make them meet, Agreste and Celine, I would say since chapter 9, she should have met him then, but I decided to change the guideline when I reviewed the chapters. And to think that in a parallel universe, she would have been friends with him... But no. His feelings for Lila changed. Well, maybe I'll make a bonus for what I decided to change. I think I'd do that. It's interesting to see how the fic could have been with the few changes I've been able to make. No, I haven't said that many times.

So, what can I say about this chapter. Well, it's about time. It's been I don't know how many chapters since she was supposed to see Lila, but I never found the right time. Oh, although I suspect I could have done it before. But she saw it from a distance. I think maybe I should have dwelt on a few details, given her "friendship" with Lila. Also to review some of the wording that seems to me to be flawed. And also to review the reactions of the protagonist, although no. I find her behavior reasonable in the situation... To be seen.

Here are the end notes. Good day to you. And thank you for reading this story... It's nice of you.
