At the Dupain-Cheng's residence, Marinette was about to head out for school when her mother suddenly called out to her.
"Marinette, wait a minute," said Sabine.
"What's wrong, mom?" asked Marinette.
"Salomé and Leon are coming back to Paris and are to arrive today, I just wanted to give you a heads up as they called just a little bit ago," said Sabine.
"Please tell me that they aren't planning to pick me up from school today," said a worried Marinette.
"I can't promise you anything, so you should be careful," said Sabine.
"Those two always do something crazy when it comes to you, so watch your back today," she said.
"Oh I will," said Marinette as she left.
"Who are Salmoé and Leon, Mari?" asked Tikki as she poked her head out of the purse.
"You'll find out later, but for now I'll just let you know that they are two big pests," said Marinette. Once at school, Marinette took a seat without saying anything and let out a loud sigh.
"Dang girl, what's got you down in the dumps this early in the morning?" asked Alya.
"Some people are coming to town who I really don't want to see," said Marinette.
"Who can make you this miserable?" asked Adrien.
"Except for Chloe and Lilia that is," piped in Alya with a chuckle as the two glared at her. Marinette just mumbled something while resting her head down on the table, her face buried into the wooden surface so no one could see her.
"What was that?" asked Nino.
"They're my brother and sister," said Marinette while moving so that her chin was the only part of her touching the desk.
"You have siblings?!" asked the trio which surprised the whole class.
"A little louder next time, I don't think they heard you in Germany," said Marinette, whose ears were ringing. Before Alya could start in on questioning Marinette, Miss. Bustier walked into the room.
"Alright, everyone settle down, and let's get to class," said Miss. Bustier.
