Oh, here was everyone! Thank goodness she hadn't had to wait too long. Esper shook the hand of the woman closest to her - Tiffany - and grinned. "I'm Esperanza Jordan," she announced to everyone. "Or you can call me Esper. I'm the new secretary."

She waved to Lawrence, the man who had greeted Tiffany and her in a slightly rude matter. Esper decided not to hold it against him, as he was probably confused by the new faces in his department. Or maybe he was new, too. Or maybe he just had a bad memory...

Esper hurried over to help Ainsley as she set down all the food and treats. "These look wonderful! I didn't know we were supposed to bring anything..."

But she was interrupted by Gavin Isaacs. Wow! She was in the same room as the Senior Undersecretary to the Minister.

She had expected him to be taller.

"Thank you, Mr. Isaacs!" She smiled and crossed over to him, offering a handshake. "I'm so excited to start work in this office, it's such an honor." She noticed he looked slightly unconfortable. Ah well. Probably not her fault, right?

She hoped she wasn't laying it on too thick - after all, she was just a secretary. But it was still an honor!
