Homework Essay

Marinette: Write a short essay about someone who inspires you. Tikki: Do you already know who you're gonna write about, Marinette? Marinette: I’m not sure, Tikki. A lot of people inspire me every day. Like you, for instance. Tikki: (points to herself) Meee? Marinette: (laughs) Of course! You’re very wise, you give the best advice, and you’re never judgmental. Tikki: (giggles) Aww, thanks, Marinette. That’s so sweet of you to say. Marinette: It’s true! And you’re also super fun and positive! You always find the silver lining even in the most desperate situations! I couldn’t have asked for the better and more inspiring kwami! Tikki: And I couldn’t have asked for a better Marinette! (Tikki hugs Marinette causing her to blush) Marinette: Too bad kwamis must remain a secret; I would have finished this essay in no time. Tikki: (giggles) I know someone else you can write about. Marinette: Really? Who? Tikki: Someone who inspires you a lot! Marinette: (blinks) Come on Tikki! Who are you talking about? Tikki: Adrien! Marinette: (giggles as she blushes hard) Oh Tikki, you know I can’t write about Adrien. (begins doodling hearts on her paper) Although, I would have a lot to say about how smart, kind, gifted, and handsome he is. Tikki: (chuckles) I’m not sure Miss Bustier would find Adrien’s handsomeness, relevant. Marinette: (smiles) I know, I know. I still have to find someone though... Sabine: (voice comes from outside the room) Marinette? Marinette: (gasps) Hide, Tikki! Come in, Mom. (Sabine enters through the trapdoor) Sabine: Your father and I just finished baking three wedding cakes. So, we’re celebrating by going to the movies later tonight. Will you come with us? Marinette: Of course, I’d love to! Sabine: Great! Marinette: (grins but then turns back) Wait a minute, did you say three wedding cakes? In one day? How did you guys do it? Tom: (pops into the room) Ah ha! Thanks to love, sweetie! When you love what you do, and you love who you’re doing it with everything becomes a piece of cake. (kisses Sabine on the cheek) Marinette: (giggles) Sabine: We’ll come and get you later. Good luck on your essay, honey! Marinette: Thanks, Mom! (turns back to her kwami) Well, I think I’ve found my inspiration, Tikki. (starts writing her essay)
