Checking Out His New Office

[Samuel Zashterly]

Samuel entered his new office at 'The Ministry of Magic' he was really pleased with it. After all his years of work for 'The Ministry of Magic', its finally paid off he was the top dog now. He now had the office he always had dreamed of, I was very lavish and huge. He decided he would have to bring some things from home to personalize it and make it his office. He checked his in box and saw it was empty, then he wrote a message to his secretary saying he wanted her to give him an update on the current situation in finding people to work the various department under him at 'The Ministry of Magic'. On his way into the office he had noticed his official title that had been added to the door,

Head Minister of The Ministry of Magic
Samuel Zashterly

He really liked his new job and title, it was worth it all his years of hard work. Right now he felt everything was going great and nothing could go wrong, he had a great family and now he had the best job.

Alexandria knocked on the door of his office before entering. She gave him a small smile, a bit nervous.

"Hello Samuel." She looked around the office. "Wow, this is wicked cool!"

She shook her head. "I'm here for another reason though. Richard has informed me that he has told you of us dating and that you are okay with it." She looked at him, holding her hands clasped in front of her. "I just wanted to inform you that that the other night when we were at the Owlery and you were asking me what I was holding back, it was my dating your son. I wasn't sure how you would take it..."

Samuel had been going over some papers for the Ministry of Magic when he heard a knock on his door. "Come in it's open." he said still reviewing his papers not looking up. He heard his office door open and he heard a girl say "Hello Samuel.....this is wicked cool." without looking up from his papers he held up his right hand and with his pointer finger gave her the sign to wait just a minute. He continued to look over the papers on his desk for a full minute. He then closed the folder containing the papers he had been reading and then stood up looking at her and smile. "Hello Alexandria how are you today?" "Yes Indeed I do get quite a nice size office with my appointment as 'Head Minister'." "Would you have seat." he said with a smile as he pointed to his seats that were in front of his desk for guests.

"What can I do for you today?" he said as he sat back down at his desk. He listened as Alexandria explained that she had been informed by Richard that he had already told him that he was dating her and how he Samuel had approved. He listened as Alexandria explained to him that the other night at the Owlery that the boy she hadn't mentioned the name of that she was interested in was his son but she hadn't been sure how he would handle "Yes indeed Richard talks about you a lot during dinner and does have my approval." "It's alright that you were not certain about telling me I know I can be quite the imposing figure what with my job and all." "You not need feel nervous about talking to me about anything and your always welcome to come talk to me here as long as you get permission to leave the school grounds when visiting me here at the 'Ministry of Magic'." "I wish you to the join my family for dinner this Friday at are estate as I'm sure Richard would be pleased as well." he informed her with a nice smile. It was more of a order then a request thought for anyone who knew him, knew that he had the habit of not taking too kindly to those who refused his requests or invitations. "Here take this and treat yourself to a new nice dinner dress and shoes." he said smiling as he handed her 15 galleons. He had done it not so much as to say she was poor or couldn't afford a nice dinner dress but more as a way to make sure she came to the dinner dressed appropriately. "I will have Richard pick you up at 5pm on Friday after class." he said as he was the type who liked to have everything done according to schedule. "Is there anything else you wanted to talk about or ask me as I'm rather busy right now?" he asked her as he took a "Bertie's Every Flavored Beans' from his bowl and tossed it in his mouth. "Would you like some candy?" he asked as an afterthought pointing to his bowl of beans on his desk.

Alexandria then spoke, "I would be delighted to join you all for dinner." She smiled at him and thank him for the galleons. "I will try to do my best to find a dress well enough for the occasion."
