We’re obviously just very different. You love work and I love…. well… ‘not work’ He winked at her. At least she was sitting here now, chatting to Nathan instead of working.

“You’re right. Nothing at all.” Nathan let out a small sigh. This time he was the one to glance at his watch - what had started out as a social chat had become a very heavy conversation.

He chuckled again. Poor Angelina having to listen to the ramblings of Nathaniel Greenwood. “She’s 12. Goes to Hogwarts.” He added. “She’s in the Slytherin house.” Whatever the heck that meant. “How old is your little sister?” he asked. Now this, was lighter conversation.

Nathan actually raised an eyebrow at Angelina. ‘Of course?’ “Right.” He said with a slight nod of the head. He shook his head at the woman’s next words. ‘Species?’ Oh dear. He lowered his pint and looked her straight in the eyes “And do you believe that they are a ‘lesser species, Angelina?’ He then regretted asking it immediately. Nice question, Nate... not. He started to play with the beer mat again. Nathan had to learn to keep his trap shut in situations like this.

He was tempted to lie when Angelina asked if he was pureblood. Say he was muggleborn just to see what her reaction would be. “Yeah... I am.” He nodded. “But I live in the muggle world.” he explained and gestured towards his clothes. His vintage leather jacket, black t-shirt and scruffy jeans - you couldn’t look any more like a muggle than Nathan did. “That’s why my father doesn’t speak to me.” he added with a smile, raising his glass slightly before taking a drink.

When Nathan said she was rubbish at lying, Angelina sighed. “Okaayy Mister.” She started. “.. so I don’t have non working moments.” She said quickly while she bit her lower lip.
She couldn’t be that bad at lying.
Erm.. maybe she was.
And yes, he was right, they were very different.
“Well, I've learned how to love work.” She said.

Angelina slightly raised an eyebrow when she noticed the man looking at his watch.
Ironic.
She could look at her watch while other people where talking to her, but she couldn’t bare to see other people looking at their watches.
Angelina smiled while she heard him talking . “Well, my little sister is younger than yours. She is 10.” She told him. “My parents say that Hogwarts is a possibility for her to study.. but they are also thinking about Beauxbatons.”

Angelina pressed her lips against each other.
She didn’t mean to say that. It always just escaped out of her mouth when someone asked it.
Crap.
“No. I don’t.” she told him while she looked him back in the eyes. “I don’t have anything against muggles.. they are just .. a little weird.”
Or maybe she was the weird one.
But one thing was true, she didn’t think that about muggles.
“Muggles are.. funny.. and ingenious.” She said with a nod. “ When I lived those two months with my friend, those were the weirdest days of my life. You know that machine.. erm.. when you put clothes into it they came out clean after a while? ”
What was the name of it?
Clean machine?
“ I almost blew that thing up.”
Wait, she could blew that machine up couldn't she?
She was trying to turn this heavy conversation in a more lighter one.
And honestly, she really didn’t know very well how to do that.
She was used to have always serious conversations.

Angelina raised an eyebrow.
That was pretty close to be the stupidest thing she had ever heard.
“Let me see if I get it right.” She said. “You father doesn’t speak to you because you live in the muggle world?”
He had just said that.
Pretty smart Ange . You are pretty smart.
“Well, I don’t think that is very logical..” she told him honestly. "I think there is no necessity to ask what are your father opinion about muggles."
