Chapter 4 Adrien's Visitors
Two weeks later, a bad person or person's continues to sweat. He shudders in thought about what the boss will do to him. He only hopes he was successful. His acquaintance seems to care less about it. Why should she? It is not her life on the line if the mission was a failure now, is it?
Adrien remains in the hospital unknown to anyone in the outside world. He is upset, wishes he could remember more, and thinks who am I? He tries to think about why he was in the alleyway in the first place after dark. He figures perhaps it was a business situation gone wrong.
He remembers he had an argument with his girlfriend and broke up with her.
"Mr., you any better?" The doctor asks.
"My left elbow and knee much better than they did last week," Adrien responds.
"I remember my girlfriend and I broke up, but I still can not remember my name," Adrien says.
"Good at least you are making some progress then," Doctor Jones replies.
"Someone else is here to see you today, " Doctor Jones says.
"Who came to see me?" Adrien asks.
"Now that is the strangest thing she did not give her name." The doctor remarks.
" You say she, you mean my visitor is a woman?" Adrien asks.
"Yes, I hope you do not mind," The doctor remarks.
"I will be back later to check on you, let the nurse know if you need anything in the meantime," Doctor Jones says and leaves to check on other patients.
"Hi, how are you?" Marinette asks as she enters the hospital room.
"It is you, you are her!" Adrien says with excitement in his voice.
"I am sure I have no idea what you are talking about sir," Marinette says.
"You are the one who helped me. I know because I recognize your voice," Adrien says.
"Ok, so I am her, not so loud," She whispers.
Suddenly a knock is heard and Plagg walks inside. "Hello, Adrien! Excuse me, I did not know you had a pretty visitor," Plagg says.
"I hope I did not interrupt anything by coming here," Plagg teases him.
"No, of course, she is a good friend of mine, right Miss?" Adrien asks.
Marinette thinks, what is he thinking, I barely even know him. "Sure, we are good friends, but he often forgets my name and calls me Miss," Marinette replies.
"I am Marinette, and you are?" Marinette asks.
"Pleasure to meet you, Miss Marinette, I am Plagg," Plagg says.
"I am Adrien's agent since he is a model, you know." Plagg brags.
"How did you know I was here?" Adrien asks.
"We agents have our ways to keep track of where our models are at all times. We will not let the press know," Plagg remarks.
"Marinette is it true you work alongside the amateur detective Tikki?" Plagg asks.
"Yes, and no. She works alongside me," Marinette says.
"Ok, so is Tikki available at the moment?" Plagg asks.
"Tikki is not seeing anyone at the moment, but I hope you do not think you are her type," Marinette says.
"Oh, I think we should let Tikki decide for herself. What is her number?" Plagg remarks.
"Someone has a crush on Tikki," Marinette teases Plagg as she hands him a slip of paper with Tikki's phone number on it.
"Adrien when you are ready to model again, give me a call, you have my number," Plagg says. He hands him his business card.
"Marinette, thanks for Tikki's number," He says and leaves with a big smirk on his face.
"Is Plagg always such a flirt?" Marinette asks Adrien after Plagg left.
Adrien laughs. "You have not seen the half of it, Marinette, usually he is much worse. I must say he is an embarrassment," Adrien says.
"Oh, and why is this anyway? " Marinette asks.
"Let me see, Plagg usually flirts with more than one girl at a time. He does not normally have any serious relationships with anyone." Adrien remarks.
"Oh, dear and I just gave him Tikki's number. She is not going to be happy with me," Marinette says.
"Marinette, try not to worry so much, I am sure Tikki can handle herself just fine," Adrien says.
"Oh, you are probably right," Marinette says.
"Thanks for coming to see me," Adrien says. He smiles a little.
"Sure no problem, I must be going now," Marinette says.
"Do be careful the person who hurt me is still out there," Adrien tells her.
"I promise to be careful and stay away from the alleyways at night,'' She says.
"Bye, take care of yourself, Adrien!" Marinette says as she leaves.
