Chapter 9
Adrien sat together with Nino in the bedroom from their commune looking at an article on Nino's laptop which was written by Nino's girlfriend Alya Césaire.
"How was dinner with your family yesterday?" Nino asked. "Anything special,"
"It was normal" Adrien responded. "Aunt Amelie really was excited to see my mother again as it was to be expected,"
"I believe that. And about you? Was she happy to see you too?"
"Yeah" The blonde responded. "She mostly was excited to know I was now married to Kagami and they seem to get along pretty well,"
"What about your cousin?" Nino asked. "How are you two getting along after those years?"
"I believe we're good" Adrien answered. "We didn't talk much, to be honest.
"Okay" Nino answered, then noticed an ad on the side with a free 3-room apartment for sale. "Have you encounter someplace for you and Kagami yet?"
"Not yet. We're on it" Responded Adrien. "My mom yesterday offered me, that we could live there for a while if we were interested. She even assured me, she would give me as much privacy as I can get here"
"And you said no, right?" Nino asked making Adrien shake his head.
"Just that I would think about it with Kagami. Sure we've got a lot of space there, but we really want to have time just for us, you know,"
"I understand you. Mostly now that you two are married you two really need your time,"
"Yes," Adrien responded.
"Are you free this evening or have you got something planned?" Nino questioned his friend, which nodded.
"I….well I haven't asked yet, but I planned to ask Kagami out for dinner and overnight at the Grand Paris hotel" Adrien answered. "I could on Sunday evening"
"Oh, I have a dinner with Alya and her family" Nino mentioned.
"Well, then we have to see it during the week or at the next weekend,"
"Better keep it for the weekend, I'm not really fond of going out right after work while being tired or half-tired of it"
"Yeah, I think I have to give you right there" The Morrocan agreed. "Hey what about a duel basketball match out on the park?"
"It's been a while we've done that. I might be a little rusty, but I'd love to do one matches or two"
"You've done sport this week during our Wii challenge last week with us. You didn't look rusty to me"
"Yeah but it's not the same" Adrien added.
"Don't worry, you won't break a leg before your date night" Nino promised earning a nod from his friend, afterward Nino pressed on his laptop on the option to shut the laptop down, then got up along with the blonde and left together Nino's bedroom.
Kagami stood at the welcome desk of the fitness center in front of the computer along with her commune mate Kim Chien Le, which held on his hand his smartphone with his best friend Max Kanté, which assisted the two on an issue with the computer.
"Now run the words down by using the number 2 key on the right side of your keyboard and press actualize"
"It still doesn't work Max. It's frozen" Kim stated while pressing the button on the keyboard.
"Shouldn't you first click on num lk before you press the other key?" Kagami asked the two men.
"I have pressed it before. That's why the lamp here is on. I could try it again, but it's not going to work" Kim answered pressing the numbers lock button, then pressed on the number 2 key, but the computer didn't react and Kim pressed on the lock button again to repeat the task, which was told by Max, but it still didn't work out.
"Okay, you two. I'll be going there. Around ten minutes or fifteen, I will be there"
"Thanks Max, sorry for interrupting you at the work" Kim apologized turning the smartphone off and put it back inside his joggers.
"Hey Kim, it's okay now, you can go back home. You've got closing time right now, my shift is until 5 pm" Kagami enunciated making Kim nod.
"Yes thank you. Keep patience, it will work again" Kim said moving along the gym to the next room, where the wardrobes are.
Kagami grabbed her smartphone to open her Facestargram account to see a picture of Chloé lying at the beach posing for the camera and under the picture, Kagami noticed it had over 8000 likes. Kagami pressed on like, then scrolled down the site to stop on a post of Alya Césaire, which showed a video of Adrien and Nino together playing basketball against a brunette man and another blonde man, which was skinnier than the three men on the field.
"Yo dude how could you lose the ball that easy?" Nino asked watching Adrien ran behind the brunette man while being followed by the blonde counterpart of the opponent.
Kagami hovered with her thumb over the like button to blend in a bar with different reactions and she pressed the heart button to give Alya a heart reaction, then opened the comment section to type down a comment.
"Gotta love my silly husband" Kagami send the comment, then went back to continue surfing on the social network, and above her display appeared a message coming from her husband. Kagami smiled, then opened the message to see, he sent a greeting and his side of the chat had down on the screen a notice informing Kagami, that he was texting her. The next message of Adrien came and Kagami opened it to read it.
"I made a reservation for us two at the Grand Paris hotel for dinner. Are you interested?"
Kagami shook her head amorously at the invite and began to type down her message to the husband.
"Wow, I feel like you can read my mind. I really need to distract myself from today" Kagami send back to Adrien her response. A minute later she received another message from Adrien, which she read.
"Are you okay? Shall I call you?"
Kagami pressed the voice message recorder to send her husband a voice message. "It just issues with the computer, I could barely work with it for the last two hours. Therefore why I'm a little tense,"
"Oh don't worry. I will help you get it away" Adrien answered with a wink emoji, afterward Kagami responded back with an air kiss emoji.
Kagami placed her smartphone down on the table to look at the blocked computer seeing her reflection on the black screen with a medium font size showing the options of the continuity of its reboot.
