Zander had been putting this off for ages. It's not like he hated what he was doing THAT much. It was tolerable and his salary was a good enough motivation to keep him doing an adequate enough job. The people were friendly enough too, though he'd never get over how weird it was to be working with Bart's mother... Or Professor C's wife for that matter. That was definitely something that would stay weird until the day he left the Ministry.... Maybe even beyond that. It gave him the creeps, yo. Definitely the creeps.
Anyway, he had finally mustered enough of that Gryffindor courage (with the help of talking to one Airey Flamsteed) in order to make his way to the door. He had rehearsed this conversation several times, there was no way he'd mess it up. He just had to stick to the script and hopefully Mariel would also stick to the script (the one in Zander's head, anyway). He hadn't really made any plans past the single one he had practiced. Having no backups was really one of the more negative Gryffindor qualities he had walked away with.
Anyway, now was as good a time as any..... He held his breath and firmly knocked the door. Maybe she wouldn't be in and he could just turn around and try again later. Yeah, actually that didn't sound terrible.
