Heaven forbid what she must of thought of the blonde now as she stood there like a baby deer on ice, all awkward and fragile. “It’s okay, you’re not hurt, are you? Honestly, I’m surprised I didn’t fall over you when we danced at the celebration” waving off the apologies of the other woman now, after all, no one was hurt. Sensing that she didn’t quite remember her name, she continued “You’ll have to forgive me but I can’t quite remember your name. I’m Delyth” holding her hand out now with a friendly smile. In truth, she was very good with names. Her memory was one of the few things she prided herself on but Alba didn’t need to know that

Other memos flew past the desk to their destinations or flew to the lifts to on their way to other levels of the Ministry. It was such a normal sight that Ministry employees often ignored the little purple papers as they flittered about and the papers usually ignored the employees.
Three of the paper airplanes flew over the heads of the two employees below (Love-for-HP / GD2204) on their way like usual.
Only after those three memos passed by, there were no airplane memos for an unusually odd length of time. Funny, why did the mail stop? Was it a national holiday?
And then a lift arrived. The doors opened with a ding and out poured a small mountain of purple memos. The paper airplanes tumbled and slid across the floor. Quick! Better gather them all up before the lift gates crushed them beyond repair.
Delyth!! That's what it was jeepers Alba needed some help with names, she was so bad at them.
"Delyth, that's right!! Please forgive me, I'm Alba" She added.
"No harm, no foul." She said too, good they were both okay.
"I'm a little nervous for the day..." She added smiling up at the purple airplanes... or lack there of.
"Funny .. no mail for a bit." She added, and then heard what sounded like a crash and then airplanes flying everywher!
"Merlin's Beard!" Alba cried and started reaching for everything in site.
"Delyth can you hep me!" She screeched.
