Madeleine waited for his mother to come back, one of his aunts started brushing his hair softly while Madeleine was sitting comfortable on the couch, when the door opened Madeleine looked excited to see his mother holding a piece of paper with the classes written on it,he excitedly then asked

Madeleine- mother! You're back! Sooooo who's in my class??
Grand Madeleine- well, let's see caramel arrow cookie, cocoa cookie, oh! We have siblings here!
Madeleine- siblings?
Grand Madeleine- yes! There are two cookies that are siblings!
Madeleine- oh wow! Cool! What are their names??
Grand Madeleine- let's see uhmmm espresso cookie and latte cookie
Madeleine- wait...i know those names...
Grand Madeleine- oh? You do?
Madeleine- yes! I think they're from the lower city!

The room suddenly became silent when Madeleine mentioned the horrible and disgusting... LOWER CITY... His aunts and his mom were in shock, the room stayed silent for a long time, until finally one of his aunts decided to break the ice

Madeleine's first aunt- l-lower city?! Oh no no no no no!!
Madeleine's second aunt- there is no way!!
Madeleine's third aunt- no no! Our sweet nephew isn't going to be with those horrible and dangerous cookies from that disgusting place!!
Madeleine- but! They seemed so harmless! T-they were just playing tag and having fun! I-i saw them when I went there!
All (his 3 aunts)- YOU WENT THERE???
Madeleine- yeah! T-they seemed so happy! And harmless! They were just a bit dirty because of the mud but-
Madeleine's second aunt- no! No! No! No! No! No buts!
Madeleine's first aunt- never ever talk or interact with them!!
Madeleine's third aunt- we don't want you getting hurt by them!!

Madeleine and his mother didn't know what to say about that, but he thought of the words and said firm and with confidence

Madeleine- they won't hurt me! They're kids like me! And they're so harmless! And if they're so dangerous why do we live in the upper part of the city and they live in the lower? If they were so dangerous they would have fought for the upper part and we would be in the lower!! I know I'm a kid but I have a brain to use logic!

The room stood in silence and shock with Madeleine's reaction

Madeleine's first aunt- alright fine, but if they hurt you tell us!
Madeleine- okay! Okay! But I know perfectly how to defend myself! And besides! I have the divine light watching upon me!
Grand Madeleine- he's right, the light will be watching upon him

Grand Madeleine then looks at him with a smile on her face

Grand Madeleine- I trust you, my son, be careful
Madeleine- yes! Thank you mother! I won't disappoint you!!
Grand Madeleine- I know you won't

His aunts were still scared about the idea of their sweet nephew being in the same class as those two from that horrible place... They were afraid those kids were gonna influence him to make bad things, really bad things... Like vandalism, crimes or even worse. . . Stop believing in the divine... They couldn't let that happen!!

Madeleine's second aunt- are you sure about this??
Madeleine's first aunt- y-yeah!! I-i mean... It could be very dangerous
Madeleine's third aunt- they're right! What if-
Grand Madeleine- nope! I believe on my son, and I know he'll stay safe and he won't be influenced by other cookies, either if they are from the lower city or not

Madeleine looked at his mother with hope in his eyes, her words were sweet like sugar, he loved that she respected the other no matter where they were from

Grand Madeleine- the school is in another city, but we can take you there in our airship with no problems! And if you want there are some dormitories that you can stay on!
Madeleine- I think that'll work! Thank you mother!

She smiled by seeing her son so hopeful and happy with this, now all they gotta do is wait
