Mari leans on a railing outside waiting for the psychiatrist while thinking. 'he isn't here yet the crazy cue doctor isn't here yet. I shouldn't have to deal with anyone's insults.' She thinks about earlier when that crazy woman yelled at her. 'What if I escaped? If I return to my house?' Mari thinks about her past life, but then she remembered last night when she kissed the psychiatrist cheek and for some reason, she feels herself getting hot.


"You can't imagine how much I missed Mari last night father Carlos." Fu said to father Carlos helping him sweep the front of the church.

"I think that it will take time to correct Mari. Maybe he will make Mari take particular classes for understanding and a bit of education." Father Carlos sits on the front steps of the church for a rest.

Fu sits next to him. "So Mari won't be by my side again?"

He shook his head. "I'm sure that she can visit you, or you can go visit her; you do work for that family."

Fu sighs. "I lost her father, Mari is now from another status."


Ruby walked to the garden unsure how to feel about what Audrey told her about Adrien bringing a girl in the house sure enough she saw a young lady about her age sitting on a railing. "Hi."

Mari looked up. "What's up who are you?"

Ruby walked up to her with a gentle smile and extended her hand to shake. "Ruby Agreste."

Mari shook it. "Cool are you a friend of the crazy cue doctor?"

Ruby looked at her confused. "Who? Crazy cue doctor?"

Mari rubbed the back of her head. "I mean of Dr. Agreste."

Ruby smiled softly. "Yes he's my brother."

Mari nodded. "Well sit down you are at your house after all." Ruby sat down on the railing next to her. "Hay has your brother returned?"

Ruby shook her head. "No he hasn't returned yet."

Mari sighs impatiently. "Do you know why? Because he told me to wait for him that he wasn't going to take long, but the truth is I'm here like a goof and nothing is happening. I'm losing my patience. I really am." Ruby looks at her sadly.


Fu was doing the laundry as Mathew walked up to him. "What's up Fu?"

Fu looked at him with a smile. "Just here doing the dally chorus."

Mathew looked around. "Where's Mari? Do you know why she didn't come to the painting session today?"

Fu frowns. "Well, you see she had a big problem she didn't sleep here last night."

Mathew raised an eyebrow. "Why?"

He sighs. "Well to save her from going to jail a doctor took her to his house, and he took responsibility for her, so she can get cultured plus get educated."

"Who's that doctor?" Mathew asked curiously.

Fu chuckles. "The one Mari calls the crazy cue doctor."


"A pleasure to have met you Lila." Adrien said gently to Lila as, she once again had her hand extended for him to kiss, but he just held it softly.

"The pleasure is mine Adrien." Lila said softly with a smile.

"I'll walk you out Agreste." Tom said and Adrien nodded as they walked to the door.

Sabine walked over to Lila. "What did you think of him dear?"

Lila smiled sitting on the couch with Isabella as Sabine sat on the coffee table. "Very interesting. Is he also rich?"

Sabine nodded. "Yes a lot."

Lila smiled softly. "Is he married?"

Sabine sighs. "He's a widow he lost his wife in a plane crash not so long ago." Lila fakes a frown then Sabine's phone rang she stood up to grab it and answered. "Hello?"

"Good evening I want to speak with Mrs. Dupain-Cheng. I am father Carlos Glass." The voice on the other line said softly.


"The truth is I feel lost here." Mari crossed her arms. "And I miss Fu a lot."

Ruby looked at her confused but with a smile. "Who's Fu?"

"Fu is the one who raised me. Well more like the one who took care of me since when he took me in, I was already a teenager." Mari said with a soft smile.

Ruby remembers something. "Fu is the tea seller of the house."

Mari nodded. "That's the one."

"Do you know why my brother brought you here?" Ruby asked curiously.

Mari sighs. "So I wouldn't be put in jail."

Ruby raised an eyebrow. "Why?"

"Because they say I'm a thief because I took bottles of milk to take to the children of the orphanage, but I couldn't let them starve to death. Wouldn't you do the same thing as me?" Mari looked at Ruby.

Ruby shook her head. "I don't know I would just buy them."

Mari laughed. "Yes you would but I wouldn't be able to. I don't even have a spot to die at."


"Yes father I didn't know anything, but today I'll start solving things about the situation. I'll talk with some of my friends, so they can also collaborate with the orphanage." Sabine was sitting on the other couch as she spoke with a smile.

Father Carlos smiled softly. "You don't know how much I'm grateful to you Mrs. Dupain-Cheng. The nuns weren't capable of confessing to you how serious the situation was because they say you already collaborate a lot, but I took the liberty."

"You did the right thing father Glass." Hearing her say that name Isabella quickly looked at Sabine curiously.


"The worst part is that grumpy Judge was stubborn and wanted to put me in prison by force, but your brother defended me and brought me here to live and said I would be part of the family." Mari smiled softly.

Ruby smiled. "Yea Mrs. Audrey already told me."

Mari frowns. "That crazy woman who yelled at me. She even told me to leave she had a bad habit. Do you know what she did? Since the daughter of the crazy cue doctor was talking to me well she grabbed her and dragged her away as if I stunk, and your brother wasn't here to protect me again. But if they don't want me here I will leave."


"Count on it father Glass have a good evening." Sabine hangs up the phone.

"Do you work for a church Sabine?" Isabella asked curiously.

"No Isabella the priest called me for a collaboration of an orphanage." Sabine puts her phone away.

"Father Glass you said?" Isabella raised an eyebrow.

"Yes father Carlos Glass why do you know him?" Sabine tilted her head.

Isabella shook her head. "No of course not do you know him for a long time?"

Sabine smiled. "No it's the first time I talk to him."


Mari pokes her food with her fork. She couldn't eat her dinner her head was full of thoughts. When the police took her to the delegation and when she was in the cell. Even when the psychiatrist lectured her after she lied to him the first time she was in the delegation.

Natalie walked over to her. "Won't you eat your dinner Mari?" She shook her head no. "C'mon eat something it's delicious."

Mari stood up frustrated. "I had enough I don't want to be stuck here in this house."

"You need to wait for the master, or he'll get mad." Natalie said softly.

"No I won't wait for anyone because I'm fed up of waiting." Mari crossed her arms. "The master left and forgot about me!" Mari leaves and Natalie walked after her begging her to wait, but Mari didn't listen. She was about to walk to the entrance when she bumped into someone she looked up and saw that it was him. Dr. Adrien Agreste who was looking at her confused and just stared at her.


Maya went to the article and did what she usually did to go to the secret garden. Once she was there she called out. 'Grandma! Where are you? Please appear."

Emilie appeared, and Maya smiled brightly running to her and hugs her. "I'm so glad you were waiting for me."

Emilie smiled. "I knew that you were going to come visit me now tell me what's going on?"

Maya sits on a chair. "Grandma Audrey is furious because daddy brought a girl to live in the house."

Emilie smiled sadly. "I already knew that."

Maya sighed. "She even got mad when she was talking to me. She seemed fun to me, but grandma Audrey said she was bad. Do you think it's true grandma Emilie?"

Emilie shook her head no.


Mathew was in his house finishing the latest painting of Mari as Roland watched him. "Isn't it hard to paint without a model Mathew?"

Mathew shook his head. "No I have Mari in my head, I know her from head to toe."

Roland drank his coffee. "Have you heard of her?"

Mathew chuckled. "When I tell you where she is you'll die of shock."

Roland raised an eyebrow. "Where is she?"

Mathew looked at him. "None other than with our famous psychiatrist Adrien Agreste."


"I know where my eyes well lay on." Lila said as she closed her bedroom door and looked over at her aunt, but her aunt was spaced off. Lila walked over to her. "I'm talking to you aunt."

Isabella looked at her. "What?"

"That I already picked my future husband." Lila smiled.

Isabella blinked. "Who are you talking about?"

Lila's smile grew. "Adrien Agreste."


"Mari you can't leave I'm responsible for you." Adrien looked at her gently.

"Who do you think you are? You didn't buy me." Mari started snapping her fingers. "You can stay with your house and your family and your responsibilities because I don't care. I'll leave and if you chace me than I'll-" she stops speaking when she sees the gentleness in his eyes before she knew what she was doing she hugs him. "Please forgive me Adrien you only have been kind to me, and I'm just rude to you. You're not mad right? Do you forgive me? Please do." Mari kissed his cheek and Adrien doesn't know how to react as she hugs him again. "I know I was being mean, but you left and left me here alone. I waited for you all day." She broke the hug. "And since you forgot about me, I got frustrated. But I'm sure you were doing important things right?" Adrien just stares at her, and Mari raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?"


Lila waved a hand in front of her aunt. "What's wrong you stayed frozen don't you like my candidate?"

Isabella shrugged. "He's handsome and a widow."

Lila laughed. "Yea and has a lot of money, plus he caught my eye when I first saw him." Seeing that her aunt wasn't paying attention Lila sighed. "What's wrong Aunt Isabella you have been spaced out for a while."

Isabella shook her head. "Don't worry it's not important. It can't be what I'm thinking."

Lila crosses her arms. "Can you please tell me what you are thinking?"

Isabella looked at her. "No I don't want to alarm you Lila let me investigate first then I'll tell you all the details at the right moment. "Isabella leaves Lila's room and walks up the stairs before stopping and repeats the name. "Father Carlos Glass. Could it be possible?"


"No Maya I don't think that young lady is bad." Emilie smiled softly. "Maybe she took the wrong path, and that's why she acts like that, different from the people you know."

Maya walks over to her and sits on her lap. "I want to continue to talk to her. How can I do that if grandma Audrey doesn't let me?"

"Well I don't see anything wrong in you becoming friends with her. Actually, it would help Mari not to feel alone and like the queen that you are you have generosity and intelligence." Emilie smiled brightly at her.

"Tell me grandma Emilie why hasn't my mom returned? I doubt she will." Maya asked sadly.

Emilie looked at the sky before looking at her again. "Have faith God might bring her back to you when you least expect it."


"Tell me what's wrong." Mari was siting on the third step of the stars watching Adrien, who was sitting on the first step resting his head on his hand looking down.

Adrien looked over at her. "Nothing Mari now go to bed."

She stands up and started to walk up the stairs, but then she goes back to her usual spot. "Hay can I go to the neighborhood and visit Fu and my puppy Teddy?"

"No it's late Mari." Adrien said softly.

"But it's still early." Mari whined.

Adrien sighs. "It's not convenient for you to go out much less right now."

Mari sighs and goes in front of him bending down. "Than take me there please."

Adrien looks at her. "I'll take you tomorrow okay?"

Mari smiled brightly. "Do you promise?"

Adrien nodded. "I promise Mari."

Mari stands up with a smile. "Have you asked how I behaved today?"

Adrien looked at her curiously. "No I haven't had the opportunity you know that I just arrived."

"Well I behaved well." Adrien nodded unsure to believe that or not. "Well I think I did even though-"

"Even though what?" Adrien stands up.

"I bumped into that crazy woman." Adrien stares at her confused. "Someone who is named Audrey." Adrien sighs hearing that name. "She treated me as if I was trash, and she started yelling at me and do you know what she told me?"

"What?" Adrien looks at her curiously.

Mari smiled faded a little. "She told me that I had to leave the house."


"I can't believe that Mari went to that guy's house." Roland stood up. "What is she doing there Mathew?"

Mathew cleaned his paintbrush. "From what I know she was accused of stealing and to save her from prison the psychiatrist took responsibility for her."

Roland took another sip from his coffee. "Do you know where he lives?"

Mathew shook his head. "No Roland who knows is Elsa since the psychiatrist is her cousin. Why don't you ask her?"


Adrien holds onto the railing of the stairs his back facing Mari. Mari looks at him curiously. "Do I really have to leave like what that old woman said?"

He sighs turns around to face her and goes back down the stairs. "Look Mari we will talk about it more calmly tomorrow. For now go to your bedroom."

"Okay come with me, so we can continue talking." Mari grabs his hand and turns him around trying to drag him up the stairs, but he stands still.

"No Mari go by yourself." He gently frees his hand.

"But I want to talk more with you c'mon please." She whines playfully and smiles at him brightly.

He smiles at her then walks a few feet away from her. "No Mari that can't be." He faces her again. "But I'll ask Ruby to buy you some clothes tomorrow."

"Clothes for me? Really?" Mari couldn't believe it.

Adrien chuckled. "Yes for you."

Mari smiled. "Than goodnight." She kisses his cheek and runs up the stairs to her room. Adrien just watched her with a smile.


Roland put his ear piece on as he drove his car. He called Elsa. "Elsa it's Roland, I need you to do me a favor...I want you to give me the address of your cousin the crazy cue doctor...I know that Mari is with him, and I want to see her."


Nino handed Fu food from a food stand, and Fu took it. "Mari didn't come to visit me today."

Nino sighed. "You know what I think Fu? That Mari won't come."

Fu took a bite of his food. "Could it be that the doctor doesn't permit her to?"

Nino shrugged. "I don't know."

"Maybe Mari already forgot about me." Fu said sadly.

Nino shook his head. "No Mari wouldn't forget you."

Fu shrugged. "Mari is probably enjoying her life in that house she even forgot about her dog Teddy."

Nino looked at him. "I want to visit her tomorrow do you think they'll let me see her?"

Fu nodded. "I'm sure they will. I would love to be with her for at least a bit."

Nino smiled. "Can you give me the address?"

"Of course son." Fu takes another bite of his food. "We probably shouldn't have permitted them in taking her."

Nino sighs. "It would be worst if she was in jail Fu."

Fu nodded. "That's true but you don't like it that she's there either."

Nino looks at his food. "No I don't and do you know why? Because I'm jealous. He's a young man, and Mari is a beautiful young lady."

Fu chuckles. "C'mon son. How could a doctor like Agreste be interested in an uncultured girl like Mari?"


Adrien is sitting on a chair in the library thinking about what happened with Mari earlier.

She hugs him again. "I know I was being mean, but you left and left me here alone. I waited for you all day." She broke the hug. "And since you forgot about me, I got frustrated."

Adrien covers his face with his hands unsure of what is happening to him. Just than there was a knock on the door, and he sighs moving his hands away. "Come in."

Natalie opened the door and walked to him. "You have a visitor in the main hall Mr. Adrien."

Adrien looked at her confused. "Who Natalie?"

Natalie shook her head. "He didn't tell me his name. He came to see Mari, but since I told him she was already in her room, he requested to talk with you."

Adrien sighs and stands up. "Let's see who it is." He walks to the main hall. "What do you wish?" He asked the man in front of him.

"I came to see Mari." The man replied emotionless.

Adrien raised an eyebrow. "For what?"

The man kept his emotionless tone. "That's between her and I."

Adrien looks at the man's appearance. "Can I know what relationship you have with Mari?"

"That's also private." He said sternly.

Adrien nodded. "Well she doesn't receive visitors."

The man crossed his arms. "Do you also have her kidnapped?"

Adrien smiled slightly. "You have such an imagination. What I did was to be responsible for her, so she wouldn't be put in jail. I will also separate her from the environment that she was in including the people part of that environment."

The man smirked. "Are you sure you will be able to doctor? I doubt it."

"I don't care what you think." Adrien said emotionless.

He nodded. "Let me talk to Mari. I need to tell her-"

"Don't waste your time. I won't let you see her so please leave my house." Adrien said sternly.

He blinked. "What's wrong with me talking to her?"

"Not even a second." Adrien said sternly.

The man raised an eyebrow. "Why so interested in hiding her?"

Adrien glared at him. "I don't need to give you any explanation so please leave and don't come back."

He nodded. "Fine Mari is in your territory now, but we will see each other again Mr. Crazy cue doctor." He challenged him before leaving. Adrien just blinked watching him leave.


Mari was in her bed thinking about what happened earlier with the psychiatrist. 'Gezz I was cruel to him. I'm so ungrateful. But why is the crazy cue doctor so nice to me? He's very handsome and sweet.' with that thought she falls asleep.


The next day, Audrey walks down the stairs as Natalie comes back from dropping Maya on her bus. "Good morning Mrs."

"Good morning did that street rat leave this house?" Having no response Audrey got mad. "Don't tell me that she's still here!"

Natalie nodded. "Yes Mrs. Audrey she hasn't come down yet she is in her bedroom."

"And Adrien?" She asked irritated.

"The doctor is having breakfast Mrs." Natalie said before Audrey walked away.


Adrien was having breakfast in the back porch when Audrey stood across from him. "Adrien I told you to take that woman out of this house and Natalie just told me that she is still in the bedroom you put her in."

Adrien looks at her. "Audrey I can't back down from the obligation I made."

Audrey puts her hands on her hips. "So you plan on leaving her here?"

"Mari stays in this house." He said sternly.


Nino walks into the main hall of the house looking around. A maid comes and asks him what he needs. "I came to see Mari."

"She doesn't receive visitors." The maid said gently.

Nino frowns. "From whom is that order from?"

"From the master of this house Dr. Agreste." She replied.

"Than I want to see him." He replied.

The maid nodded. "Wait in the front yard."

She walks away and Nino sighs walking out.


Audrey sits down. "Are you forcing me to leave?"

Adrien shrugged. "If that's what you want."

"I won't give in I know that in the long run you will have to kick her out." Audrey stands and walks away.

Adrien sighs and leans on his chair as Natalie walks over to him. "Sir there's another visitor for Mari."

Adrien groans softly. "Another one who is it?"

"It's a young man." Natalie replied.

Adrien looks at her. "Didn't you tell him that Msri doesn't receive visitors?"

Natalie nodded. "Yes but like the other one, he wants to talk with you."

"I can't receive him tell him to leave." Natalie nodded and started walking away. "Wait Natalie, where is he?"

Natalie walked back to him. "In the front garden sir."

"Than I'll tell him myself." He stood up and walked to the front door. When he opened the door, he recognized the young man. "Oh it's you." He walked over to him.

Nino looked at him. "I came to visit Mari, but your maid said that she doesn't receive visitors. That's why I asked to talk to you."

Adrien nodded. "I imagine that you are here interested in your girlfriend's situation. Then I hope you understand that I took the responsibility of taking care of her-"

"No one asked you to take that responsibility you could quit at any time. Actually, I'm willing to take Mari with me at this very moment." Nino stated determined.


"He kicked me out from his house without letting me see her who does he thinks he is!" Roland said angerly. He was in Matthew's house Roxie was there too.

Roxie sighed. "Don't waste your time Roland, he has the law on his side."

Matthew nodded. "He must be those powerful men who think they have the right of everything."

"So what! I also have influences, I know powerful people and you guys know it." Roland was furious.

"Look if Mari didn't go to jail because the crazy cue doctor took responsibility for her; it must have been by law just leave her with him." Roxie sighed.

Roland shook his head. "No I have to see her. One way or another, I'm going to take her away from his hands."


Adrien sighs. "You can't take her Nino. I took the responsibility of correcting her, and the first thing that I need to do is separate her from any negative element that surrounded her."

"I'm not a negative element." Nino said sternly.

Adrien shook his head. "Your company and the company of the group she was with only caused her harm."

Nino crosses his arms. "I don't belong in the group."

Adrien raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? Than what do you do? What job do you have?"

"I work in a small office, and I study at night. I'm not a street rat I work hard, and you have no right to forbid me to visit Mari." He replied glaring at Adrien.

Adrien kept his stern tone. "If you're so innocent. Why didn't you advise her to separate herself from the bad influences?"

Nino sighs. "I did many times but I couldn't achieve it."

"Well since you didn't achieve it, I have to. That's everything Nino excuse me." Adrien starts to walk back inside the house.

Nino stops him speaking. "No that's not all! You can't separate Mari from her loved ones. I need to see her; I want to see her. Do me the favor of calling her or telling me where she is I won't leave without seeing her."

Adrien faces him and sighs.


Mari was walking out of the shower when Natalie walked in the room. "Good morning Natalie."

Natalie smiled gently. "Get dressed quickly you have a visitor."

"Fu?" Mari asked excitedly.

Natalie shook her head. "No a young man who claims he is good friends with you his name is Nino. He's waiting for you in the garden." Mari's smile fades slightly. "Do you not know him?"

"No I do but I'm a bit mad with him right now." She sighs but then smiles. "But it doesn't matter as long as I see someone from my people I will make peace with anyone I'll be down shortly." Natalie walked away, and Mari got dressed.


"Nino!" Nino turns around and smiled as Mari runs to him, and they do their handshake. "What a surprise I'm so glad to see you. Hey, did Fu come with you?"

"No he'll come another day." He hands her a lollipop.

"Thanks. I thought everyone would come visit me but father Carlos, nor Fu have you're the first one to visit me." She sits on a stone wall near them.

Nino sat next to her. "You had barely been here for two days, plus we weren't allowed to visit you. Dr. Agreste has you isolated. He didn't want me to see you."

Mari raised an eyebrow. "Why not?"

Nino shrugged. "He thinks he owns you or something like that. Luckily, he thinks we are a couple."

Mari blinked. "Where did that come from?"

"I said that in the delegation. So they didn't think you were alone plus to help you get out." Nino said gently. "Don't unmask me Mari if he finds out we aren't dating he won't let me come back. Mari do you want to stay here or do you want to leave?"

Mari looked at him. "I can't leave Nino. Even though the crazy cue doctor doesn't own me...I am his."

Nino shook his head. "No there is a way to free yourself."

"Oh yea what is it?" Mari didn't believe him.

"Marrying me." He said gently. Mari got off from the wall and so did he. "Marry me Mari. That way, you can leave this house. I promise it's just to free yourself, there will be nothing between us. Unless you want it." Mari starts walking away as he follows her. "We will be like friends. I won't touch you at all. If someone should be responsible for you, it should be me and not a stranger."

She faces him a bit mad. "He won't permit it."

"I can prove myself and my moral capacity." He smiles. "I have a decent job the apartment I share with my mom. You will also be with her. Dr. Agreste can't deny it. Listen to me please."


Adrien and Edward swim up from the pool of the gym. "Adrien you were the one who searched for that problem."

Adrien sighed. "I didn't search for it Edward, I did it, and now I can't turn back."

He shrugged. "Why don't you just tell Judge Dupain that you are having so many problems with your mother in law because of that girl, and you get out from that obligation, and that's it."

"Yea then she'll go to prison." Adrien chuckled sarcastically.

"Why do you care? She's just a girl." Edward shook his head.

Adrien looked at him. "Edward she might be worth nothing to you, but she's worth something to me."


Mari continued walking, and Nino followed her. "You don't have to give me an answer now but when you want to leave this house just tell me we get married and that's all."

Mari continues walking. "I can't leave Nino."

Nino raised an eyebrow. "Why not?"

"Because I just can't. " She doesn't face him.

Nino stops walking. "What's wrong Mari? What do you feel for him? What is Dr. Agreste to you?"


"Are you sure that you just want to help the so-called Mari?" Edward looked at Adrien as they walked out from the pool section of the gym.

Adrien nodded. "Yes."

Edward chuckles. "I don't believe you; I'm sure there's another reason behind it, and I'm asking you to be honest with me."

Adrien sighs. "Your right there is something else. Something I'm confused on."

Edward nodded. "Than tell me about it."

"Around Mari, I feel something I haven't felt in a long time. It's not only compassion or desire to help her. She makes me feel deep feelings. When she touches me, it makes me forget about the whole world. The only thing I want to do is to hug her to kiss her-"

Edward blinked. "That would mean that you're-"

Adrien nodded. "I'm in love with Mari."

"Not in love your attractive to her." Edward chuckles.

Adrien shook his head. "No Edward I like her. She's so sensitive she'll hug me kiss my cheek like nothing. I feel like my blood boils around her."

Edward sighs. "Mari isn't dump she knows what she is doing."

"No she does it with all her sweetness." Adrien dries his hair.

"It's unbelievable that a man as yourself doesn't see the intentions of that girl. She was raised on the streets. How can you believe in her innocence?" Edward looked at him with an eyebrow raised.


"Why don't you answer me?" Nino looks at her with arms crossed.

Mari looks at him blankly before continuing to walk. "I don't know what you're asking me."

Nino walked in front of her. "Do you want me to be more clear? Fine do you like Dr. Agreste? Are you in love with him?"


"I know that she is innocent I just know it." Adrien said as he got dressed.

Edward nodded. "Yea so innocent even though she lied to you once already."

Adrien sighs. "This has nothing to do with lies or tricks. When Mari hugs me and kisses my cheek, she does it with the same sweetness as my daughter Maya. Actually, I'm sure she sees me as a big brother."

Edward chuckles. "Yea but you don't see her as a sister."

"No...how sweet she is...young...I want to kiss her and that scares me because I don't know how long I can control myself, and if I commit something stupid I would never forgive myself." Adrien said frustrated.

Edward sighed. "Than immediately take her out of your house simple."


"You know Nino I think you are crazy, and if you continue like that I will have to stop talking to you." Mari crosses her arms.

"Your attitude isn't normal Mari. I'm giving you the opportunity to free yourself from the man who basically has you kidnapped. Why don't you use it?" Nino asked frustrated.

"I msrry you then what?" Mari was mad. "I will be more trapped with you than with him."

"I promise that you won't ill give you all the freedom you want." Nino said gently.

Mari chuckles sarcastically. "That's what you're saying now, but in the long run you'll change, and I prefer to stay here, and that's final."


"I committed myself in correcting her if I abandon her now she'll go to prison." Adrien said as he tied his shoes.

Edward was doing his tie. "I only know that you need to separate her from your side Adrien."

Adrien looks over at him. "I told you that I can't do it. I need to protect her like I promised."

"I agree with you." Edward walked over to him. "You need to protect her from you more than anyone else."

Adrien sighs. "Your right Edward more than anyone I need to protect her from myself."


"You really are stubborn Mari." Nino said frustrated. "Your demonstrating that you don't want to leave that man."

Mari sighs. "It's not that I don't want to it's that I can't."

"Because you like him. You're after him hoping to achieve something." Nino said angerly.

Mari covets her face in frustration. "It's not true! He's like a brother to me. He will correct me. The crazy cue doctor is my corrector that's it. I don't like him, and I'm not after him the way you think Nino. Now leave." She starts pushing him away. "Say hello to Fu and father Carlos and anyone in the neighborhood. Also tell them to not be cruel and come visit me since I can't visit them please and thank you now go."

Nino stops her from pushing him. "No I want to talk with you a bit more."

Mari sighs and puts her hands on her hips. "Well I don't want to talk with you you're being a pain, and it's making me want to hit you, and a big scene will happen, and I don't want to give a reason to kick me out from this house so now leave." She pushes him again. "If you will be sweet with me, than come back but if not don't." She gives him one final push before he starts walking away.

Mari goes back to her room and plopped on the bed frustrated. She couldn't believe that Nino would accused her of liking the crazy cue doctor. She sighs and sat up seeing the T.V she decided to watch something, and maybe she'll forget about earlier. She grabbed the remote control, but she didn't know how to use it since she never had a T.V before. She sighs dropping the remote on the bed and got up. She looked at the sides of the T.V to look for the on botton. On the right side she found bottons she clicks one and the T.V turned on and on that moment her favorite song was on. She smiled and started dancing to it using the remote control as a microphone. "Miraculous! Simply the best! Up to the test when things go wrong! Miraculous, the luckiest! The power of love, always so strong!" Then her favorite part came up and she turned on the volume.


Audrey walked to Natalie angerly. "What noise is that! Who has the music so loudly?"

"The noise is coming from Mari's bedroom. It must be the television." Natalie said gently.

"That street rat is yelling like crazy! I don't have to deal with this!" Audrey said angerly. "If Adrien doesn't control her, I will!" She walks away.


Mari was on the bad dancing when Audrey walked in. "Turn off that music!" Since Mari wasn't paying attention, Audrey turns off the T.V herself. Mari stops dancing and gets off the bed and goes to turn on the T.V again, but Audrey stops her. "Don't you dare!" She pushes Mari away. "Don't you dare because you'll regret it."

"Why are you turning off my T.V?" Mari asked challenging her.

"Do you think I will give you explanations street rat?!" Audrey was furious. Mari turns on the T.V, and Audrey pushed her away. "I told you to not to do it!"

"Don't push me. Who do you think you are?" Mari leans closer to Audrey furious challenging her and pushing her back. Audrey pushed her back and yelled not believing this girl. Natalie saw the scene from the doorway and quickly left seeing that the master came back.

"I'm so happy you're back." Natalie said desperately.

"What's wrong Natalie?" Adrien asked worriedly.

"Mari and Mrs. Audrey are having a huge fight." Adrien runs to Mari's room.

They were still fighting when Adrien came in and separated them. "What's going on here?!"

"This street rat disrespected me!" Audrey said desperately.

"She disrespected me too!" Mari replied.

Audrey shook her head. "She dared to push me. She threw me on the bed-"

"She pushed me first!" Mari said interrupting her.

"Kick her out of this house! How long do I have to wait until this street rat disappears from here?! When a tragedy happens?! That's what you want right?" Audrey was in tears of frustration.

"Okay stop it! What happened here? Can someone explain to me?" Adrien looks at both of them.

"Let the street rat explain!" Audrey said crossing her arms.

"The only thing I did was turn on the T.V. I started dancing and singing hearing my favorite song. Then she comes in and turns of the T.V so I turn it back on then she turns it of and so on. She's the one making scenes." Mari says frustrated. "Is it a sin to hear music in this house or what?"

Audrey nodded. "Yes! It is a sin street rat we are in mourning!"

"Mourning?" Rain is heard as Mari calms down and feels bad. "I think I screw up."

Adrien sighs. "Don't worry Mari."

Audrey gets madder. "Now defend her. After all this dirty street rat is pretty and a woman!"
