FIRST ENCOUNTER

"Marinette, are you ready!?" questions Sabine

"Yeah, Mom. Just 5 minutes," states Marinette

"What happened Marinette, Why do you look worried?" queries Tikki

"Tikki, this year would be the last year of me, my friends, and Adrien here," responds Marinette

''So, are you sad about this?" values tiki

"Hmmm," answered Marinette absent mindedly

"But, there's a good thing, Marinette! Now Chloe and you wouldn't be in the same place. And secondly, Getting into another university doesn't mean that you all wouldn't be buddies anymore. After all, every cloud has a silver lining."

When Marinette heard this, her character changed, "Yeah! you're right. I was getting sad for what would come after a year. We should concentrate on our present." says Marinette gladly.

"So," says Tikki, "it would be exceptional if you concentrate on your today and get ready."

"Uh...hehe," says Marinette flustered

Marinette eats breakfast and then walks to school and catches up with Alya on the way.

"Hey! Alya. What's up? And where's Nino?"

"Oh yeah, good morning Marinette. Nino has gone to Adrien's" responded Alya, busy on her phone.

"Oh, Alya, you should not walk on the road while looking at your phone," says Marinette in a worried, mom-like style, pouting.

"But, if you notice, we're on the pavement(footpath) "smirked Alya

"You're humorous today Alya." Marinette states

"But, I'm looking into something serious," Alya responded

"What is it," asks Marinette

"I'm on the blog of PARIS ROAD RAGGERS. They tyrannize children and it has been going since last two cycles with the last batches of 5th year of 10th," says Marinette

"So, are you thinking they'll come into our institution also?" asked Marinette

"Maybe. France has outlawed ragging but it continues, plus, the raggers can only be jailed if younger children grieve" says Alya

"Haven't anyone till now," asks Marinette

"No," says Alya

"Then ladybug would lament," declares Marinette

"Nice idea" cheers Alya

While they were talking, they apprehended they have already reached the school. They welcome everyone they encountered on the route to their class and exchange grins with Hi and hello-s.

They got into the class and when Marinette saw Adrien, she went to her always-like-dreamy-world

Alya shrugged her a little and then she was back there again.

Miss Bustier arrived with a new student. She looked as if 17 years and wore a black hoodie with white strips near the elbow joint with black track pants. She had worn a blue cap, covered with the hoodie's cap and her face was hardly visible.

They greeted her when then Miss Bustier said-

"Good morning students, Today we have a distinct student in our class." She looked at the girl and asked her, "Please introduce yourself."

The girl said," Hello everyone. I'm Carla, and I'm from India. Nice meeting you all."

She had a quick look throughout the and found very handsome boys, for example, Luka, Nathaniel, Kim, Adrien, etc.

But, she was not drawn towards love. Cause she was there for a different reason

Chloe whispered to Sabrina," How did this newbie cast the first letter of my name. Sabrina, get her tripped off as the punishment of using my name.

"Okay, done!" replied Sabrina.

Miss bustier resumed, "Carla, we don't have any extra benches, so you can sit where ever you want."

"Okay," she said as she found a vacant seat back Nathaniel.

When she was going to her seat, Luka and she bestowed keen eye contact accompanied by a smile by Luka which changed to bewilderment when he looked at her. She was like someone.

She was going to her desk when Sabrina, commanded by Chloe, puts her leg out in a way to make Carla fall

When she touched Sabrina's leg, Instead of Cara slipping off, HER leg made Sabrina go left and right with the legs of the bench.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you," Carla replied with a smile and went to her seat.

Sabrina thought "She's quite robust. Besides, she appears to be nice. I should not have endeavored to hurt her"

so this was the way Carla and Luka met the first time.....
