His eyebrows raised slightly in interest as she mentioned her past job at the American Ministry. "Hmm well it is a great field, Miss Carlton." he paused and then with a little friendly grin whispered. "Do you mind if I call you by your first name?" he chuckled, he wasn't one for formal titles, he and his employees were typically on a first name basis unless things called for the formal name usage.

Ok back to what she had said, "The American Ministry, eh? I have never been there, would like to visit one day. But I did meet the Minister about a year ago at a Conference here in the UK Ministry." he nodded. "But yeah I have been here a few years now, always in Transportation of course, it really is my forte." he grinned. "I started out in Apparation and then was promoted to Divison Head of Portkeys by one of my previous Department Heads, Mrs. Greingoth."

After checking out the window, and being sidetracked for a second as a double decker bus loaded up with Muggles and then drove off down the road, he turned back to the Undersecretary and spoke. "Oh well now that I have told you about me, what about you?"

When the waitress came to refill their drinks, Lexi waved her hand so as to indicate that she didn't need a refill. Not yet, anyway. She still had half a glass of drink, and she doubted she could even finish that.

It seemed weird to her to be called Miss Carlton, so Lexi was more than happy to agree to what Armen asked. "Oh, yeah, sure! Actually, you can just call me Lexi. Everyone does anyway," she said with a laugh. In a way, the name Miss Carlton made Lexi think of her mother, and she was far too young to be compared to her mother!

"Oh, yeah! I remember hearing about that conference," she responded. Lexi got lost in thought for a moment, thinking about some of the things she'd heard about that conference, but then snapped out of it a moment later. "Sounds like you've been employed here for quite a while. I'm glad you're enjoying it."

Taking hold of the door handle for the cafe, he pulled it open and stepped aside to let Pandora through. The fresh scent of baked goods, roasted coffee and steeped tea rushed out to greet them and he realized he was going to have to reconsider eating as his stomach gave a low growl.

"Ah yes life, well life is wonderful as a matter of fact. I have just started working as an Auror," I tell Tyler. The waitress comes over and hands over my coffee and lemon bar. "Thank you," I tell her returning my conversation to Tyler, "SO how is your life? Tell me about your job."

"Thank you," I say as the waitress delivers my latte and cookie. "A life is wonderful also. I have just started working in the department of Magical Transportation, I'm working in the Apparation section. You now I think one of our proffessors recomended me for the job. You know how I was always ahead with apparation." I take hold of Amaria's hand and give her a kiss on the lips.

"Ah yes," I say kissing him back. I pay for my food and say. "Let's go back to the MOM, I don't like being around these muggles so much."

Pandora stepped through the door, "Thank you." She said to Torio. She smelled the delicious goodies and smiled. "I'll find us a table, umm, I'd really like a glass of lemonade and the cheese on toast I mentioned. Thank you."

She did feel a little uncomfortable about allowing him to pay but she thought that he would be insulted if she asked to split the bill. She found a nice table by the window and eased herself into a chair.

Torio nodded his acknowledgement of her request, following her inside and over to the table, pulling back the chair for her to sit in. Only once she was seated did he head to the counter and place her order, adding on a chai tea and garden salad for himself.

It was a few minutes before he had thanked and payed the employee behind the counter and returned to their table with the food. "One order of lemonade and cheese on toast, madame." He said, placing Pandora's order in front of her before sitting down on the opposite side of the table.

Pandora smiled when Torio joined her. Her mouth watered as he put the plate in front of her. "Thank you, that smells delicious." She shunned the knife and fork and picked the toastie up and tucked in. It was only when she had eaten a few mouthfuls that she was reminded of Dora stuffing her face and she put the food down, unable to keep her feelings from showing on her face.

She looked at the young man across the table from her and said, "I know that you are friends with Antigone and I would never expect you to betray a confidence... but I just, oh I don't know." She covered her eyes with her hand.

Gathering herself, she looked at him again. "When we met, it was... unusual. I fainted in the Leaky Cauldron and fell into Ronan's lap. He was sitting at the table with Antigone and I'm not sure but I think they were on a date. She was very cold with me from the start and then left. Ronan and I had a drink and he gave me his card. We started dating and well... the rest is obvious," She said resting her hand on her baby bump. "I only found out a while ago that Ronan had promised to wait until Antigone came back. We had an almighty row about it. I went and spoke to Antigone about it, to clear the air and let her know that I had no idea about him making her a promise, that I was not happy about it and that if I had known... well I wouldn't have dated him, it's as simple as that."

She took a sip of her lemonade. "And then the other day... I don't even know what happened. I thought that we could perhaps be friendly but you saw us. I just got the sense that she was lying to me about something important..." She trailed off. "I'm sorry, I don't mean to burden you, but you know her. Would she lie to spare someone's feelings?"

She looked at the rest of the toastie. She didn't really have an appetite but she knew she needed to eat so she picked it up and tucked in once more, waiting to see what his reaction would be.

Torio sat in silence, watching and listening to the woman across from him. His salad was all but forgotten and his tea had started to go cold, but neither gained any notice from him. His thoughts were on the story that had been lain out before him; it was a lot more...painful than he had expected it to be. He could understand why Antigone was still upset about it; he didn't blame her. And it was the very least to say, that some of the points Pandora had brought up concerned him.

But first things were first, and he reached down to slowly fold the paper napkin into a flimsy oragami crane. "I believe, she has a lot more emotion than many peoople give her credit for. Including you."

Pandora watched Torio's expression as she spoke and when he took the time to fold a crane from his napkin, a small smile tugged at the corners of her mouth but it was flattened by his response.

"I realise that she must have been hurt. On our first proper date, Ronan got a letter from her. The owl bit him, hard enough to draw blood. He didn't tell me then but that letter was from Antigone. She had found out that we were dating, somehow, she was abroad. I got the feeling when we spoke that it was my friend Dora who contacted her. She never liked Ronan. She umm... She died recently..." Pandora pressed her napkin to her lips in an effort not to cry, "And I think that was why Antigone lied to me when I asked her if it was Dora who contacted her. So that my memory of Dora wasn't sullied by it or something..." She took a moment to compose herself.

"I know who Dora was and the things that she was capable of and likely to do. Contacting Antigone is exactly the kind of thing that she would do. It's the only thing that makes sense. Do you think that Antigone would do that? Lie to me so that my friend doesn't look bad?"

She looked at him. She just needed to know the answer. It was the reason why she had acted so irrationally with Antigone. "To be honest I think she and I are quite similar, I used to be very reserved in my approach to others. It's only since I met Ronan that I've started to change a little." The conversation they were having could not have been conceivable before she met Ronan. She was a reformed ice-queen.

The conversation they were having could not have been conceivable before she met Ronan. She was a reformed ice-queen.

Smoothing out the wing of the napkin crane, Torio considered her words carefully, remaining silent for quite a few moments. He didn't know all the facts, hadn't been there to witness any of it, so it was hard to peice things together properly.

When he finally spoke, his voice was quiet, respectful and his words carefully chosen. "I am sorry for your loss, Pandora. I understand the pain that comes with losing a close friend."

His eyes finally came up to find hers, to hold them gently but at the same time firmly, as he did when he needed Antigone to listen to what he was saying. "I don't know you Pandora, I only just met you and I can't say I fully understand your story. I don't think anyone that didn't live through it could claim to grasp what happened between you three, or why it played out the way it did. However, I believe that you are making a lot of assumptions, which while you may have very good basis for them, can still cause a lot of problems." He gave her a gentle smile. "While it may be the only thing that makes sense to you, Pandora, that may not be the truth. When anyone makes an assumption, they are imposing their precieved truth on another, and that precieved truth may not be the underlying truth of the situation."

He ducked his head a little, looking directly into her eyes. "I do not know everything about the situation, and therefore I cannot give you an answer on that matter. I cannot tell you what Antigone may or may not have done, because people adapt and change to meet the situation and problem at hand. Another reason why making assumptions can be disasterous...Do you, understand what I'm trying to say?"

Pushing open the door, Jared walked into the cafe. He walked in, and not seeing Rinatta anywhere, he found an empty table and sat down. He'd never actually been in here before, he realised. It was pretty normal, as a muggle cafe would be, but still a good place to meet.

As the waitress came and filled his drink and also began to interact with his friend, he took another scan of the cafe. He wondered midly to himself how many of the other guests in here were wizards. He certainly didn't recognize any of them, but the Ministry was rather large.

He then turned back to the table, and grinned as she agreed with the first name basis thing. "Ok Lexi, and just to be sure you can just call me Armen." He didn't like to be called Mr. Recard, unless it was offical business...and then he accepted it grudgingly.

Been here a while? Yeah he had, and he had seen his share of disasters, new bosses, and the old Minister compared to Miss Taylor. "Yeah that Conferece was...eventful." he said remembering the murder of the French Minister. How that happened in the middle of an auditorium filled with Aurors and Ministry Officials, he would never know. "But I do love it here, and wouldn't trade it for the world." he took another sip of his coffee. "So you enjoy the Minister's Office? I'm sure it's quite busy at times, with all of the important things and such, and not to mention the media." he chuckled.

Torio seemed to be trying to choose his words carefully. When he expressed his sympathy, saying that he understood the pain of losing a friend, Pandora did not enlighten him to the fact that Dora had passed away having her twins. She could not bring herself to say the words out loud. Instead she simply nodded.

His answer was, to Pandora's mind, a politician's answer and not the answer she was looking for. She wanted a clear 'yes' or 'no' and wasn't providing it. She was sure that she had been right, but now she had doubts. It was exhausting her, right when she had plenty of other things to wear her out.

Pandora ran her hand over her face and then answered. "I'm not making lots of assumptions Torio! I don't assume things, I reason them out and I'm telling you, the only thing that makes any sense at all is that Dora wrote to Antigone and told her about what Ronan was doing. I HATE that he did that, I really HATE IT, it really spoils my memories of those moments when I was already beginning to fall in love with him."

She could feel the tears building in her eyes as she spoke and she looked at him. "I'm sorry... perhaps I was just looking to you to reassure me that I was right... or that I was wrong. I'm sorry."

She heaved herself out of the chair and fished her change from the bookshop out of her pocket. Dropping it on the table, she picked up her bags and bustled away, not paying any attention to where she was going. She banged into someone's chair and winced. "I'm sorry, please excuse me," She said before realising that she knew the person. "J-Jared?" She asked, dangerously close to crying now. Why am I always crying when I see him?!

That was definetly not the reaction he had been expecting. He opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by surprise when she abruptly got up to leave. When she ran into another chair he jumped up from his own, starting over to her in concern. It was when she spoke that person's name that he stopped, a few feet behind her. Maybe this friend would understand her, and the situation, better than he did. Or at least, wouldn't be so forward about it.

Jared was just wondering where Rin was, when he felt someone bang into his chair. "It's fine," he said, turning around to look at who it was, when he saw it was Pandora. "Oh, hey-" he stopped when he saw she was crying. "Are you okay?" Silly question, as she was crying. Oh well.

Pandora looked at him and nodded. "I'm okay." It was a lie and for once the fact was written large on her face. She reached out and squeezed his arm, as if to test that he was really there. "How are you? A-and Rinatta? How is she?" Her tears were still falling and she fished Ronan's handkerchief out of her pocket to dry them.

Yeah right. Jared wasn't always a genius, but he wasn't stupid. He could see she wasn't okay. "No you're not." He said, in his forward way. "I'm good, so is she, I was just waiting for her, actually." He said. "So, what's up?"

Rinatta walked into the cafe where Jared had asked her to meet him with a smile. She wore a white halter dress and a pair of heels that matched with a small purse and put on just a small bit of makeup. She knew that she was running a bit late but was smiling and happy. She knew that Jared wouldn't be angry over a few minutes, he was such a wonderful man and treated her so well. When she saw him she giggled and waved rushing over to him. Her eyes caught a familiar face speaking with him, and yet again tears upon her face. She had not seen Pandora in ages and she had happened to be crying last time too. This time though, she was not speaking ill of Rin, but asking how she was. Rin's face showed her surprise , but then turned to warmth as she held out a handkercheif from her purse. "I am doing very well dear, thank you." she replied just after Jared had with a smile. She looked at Pandora for a moment noticing a discernable difference in her manner. "Sit with us for a moment please? If you could spare it that is." she offered and looked to Jared for reassurance. She knew it was a date for them, but she really would like to talk with Pandora and she knew he was concerned for her.

Erindipity · 03-20-2010, 03:13 AM

Antigone was decked out in her fave outfit rocking out an amazing pair of Manolo Mary Janes... life was good. She wanted to have seat, have some mocha, and clear her head. Her eyes were still a bit rimmed in red after the total cry fest she had been having but whatever she didn't care. she had a smile on her face, her ipod turned up LOUD and nothing could get her down...

That was until she notice Pandora crying and Torio with his puppy dog "OH MY GOSH ARE YOU OKAY?" eyes. Grrr.... just grrrr.... she felt the urge to run and hide but said forget it and walked right in and took a seat. Choosing to ignore them both at the moment.

Jared looked away from Pandora when the cafe door opened, and he saw Rinatta come in. He smiled at her as she came over to where he was with Pandora. He hoped she wouldn't mind that he was talking to Pandora, and at Rinatta's reply, it seemed that she didn't mind. "Hey Rin," he said, before looking back towards Pandora for her answer.

That was until she notice Pandora crying and Torio with his puppy dog "OH MY GOSH ARE YOU OKAY?" eyes. Grrr.... just grrrr.... she felt the urge to run and hide but said forget it and walked right in and took a seat. Choosing to ignore them both at the moment.

Chloe looked up from the still unknown woman she had been sitting with as the door opened. Her boss walked in. Looking exceedingly fashionable. Chloe was impressed, actually. She always considered herself very fashionable and well-dressed, but she had never expected to see her boss walk in in something so... awesome. She gave the woman she was sitting with an apologetic smile. "Excuse me, I'm sorry, but I've just seen a... friend of mine."

Standing up, she walked over to well-dressed boss and stood next to the table. Waving in front of her face a bit to get her attention, Chloe then said, "Fancy meeting you here! Mind if I join you?"

She knew that Jared wouldn't be angry over a few minutes, he was such a wonderful man and treated her so well. When she saw him she giggled and waved rushing over to him. Her eyes caught a familiar face speaking with him, and yet again tears upon her face. She had not seen Pandora in ages and she had happened to be crying last time too. This time though, she was not speaking ill of Rin, but asking how she was. Rin's face showed her surprise , but then turned to warmth as she held out a handkercheif from her purse. "I am doing very well dear, thank you." she replied just after Jared had with a smile. She looked at Pandora for a moment noticing a discernable difference in her manner. "Sit with us for a moment please? If you could spare it that is." she offered and looked to Jared for reassurance. She knew it was a date for them, but she really would like to talk with Pandora and she knew he was concerned for her.

Torio had to blink a few times to get his thoughts in order. First thing was first, Pandora was okay and the guy she was talking to seemed like someone she could talk with. Except that he had an unsettling feeling he might get turned on if Pandora mentioned that he had made her cry; the truth was the truth but...still the guy's who presence was a lot more forward, and a little intimidating in that respect.

Second. His boss had just walked in. And she knew the man. And Pandora. Good, so she had an emotional support system. It wasn't the most ideal situation he wished to meet his boss in again though. However he managed a small smile and nod of the head.

Third, there was Antigone. He caught sight of her out of the corner of his eye as he was turning around to retrieve Pandora's change off the table. She looked...well she looked good as usual, except that her demeanour was rather ticked off and it appeared as if she had been crying. He caught her eye and watched as her anger swelled. Just. Perfect.

Sighing he gathered the coin off the table as well as his untouched lunch, and moved to Pandora's side. Taking her hand gently he replaced the money before giving her a small, apologetic smile and starting to move across the cafe. If the man she had run into wanted to speak with him, he was just going to be right over here with...he paused at Antigone's table, his voice a little less sure than usual. "Do you mind if I join you?"

Antigone was pulled out of her music induced trance when she saw a hand in front of her face. She pulled her earbuds out and smiled at Chloe. "Heyo. How are you? Take a seat you're fine to sit, love," she said in a rather thick Irish lilt that typically didn't show in her work environment.

She tried to keep her eyes off of the crazy fat lady and her best friend... "Would you like a cup of coffee? Pay you back for being so bloody rude the other day..." she offered with a smile.

Then he did it... he actually touched the woman she disliked so much. Oh bloody hell... Oh mannnnn!! And there he came and she was with an employee during her free time. She didn;t want the girl to think her crazy so she smiled tightly at Torio and said, "Sure thing, boyo. Have a seat. This is Chloe... an employee of mine. Chloe this is Torio Ebisu an old friend of mine... wellatleastithoughthewas..." SHe muffled the last part as she coughed and eyed Torio viciously.

Chloe sat down at the table with Antigone, a bit taken aback by her lack of a professional pretense... and by her Irish accent. Chloe hadn't had any idea that Antigone was Irish. Wow. She smiled at Antigone's offer of a coffee. "I've already got one, but thank you," she said politely, holding up her cup. "Decaf, of course." Then some man was joining them, and she noticed some flash of emotion across Antigone's face, but she smiled at the man kindly. "Hello! It's nice to meet you!"
