Her BFF who she hadn't seen in Merlin knew how long. Was it too late to back out of the interview? To tell Kaylee Grace to not come in and that she was busy.
Sighing, a part of her wanted to do that, but at the same time, she couldn't. The truth was that even if some stupid guy got between the two, Sophia was a friend first and foremost. Even if she was still bitter over something that happened more than ten years ago - she was a professional now.
A professional who had someone in her office right now, waiting for a response. Oh snap!
"Oh. Right, well then, if that's all..." Her gaze flickered inconspicuously back to DH. "My request is simple. Later today or tomorrow, I will be making my way around the Department of Mysteries and getting acquainted with the different rooms the department has to offer. So just wanted to forewarn you to prepare your employees and then perhaps give me a tour of the Planet Room, if you'd be so gracious?"
DH waited patiently for the said request. He had sense the urgency of the knock on the door of his Head and wanted to leave as soon as she let him.
He looked around and eyed the door and returned his gaze towards the Department Head.
And then there was the request. DH thought it would be a grave one and would make an effort doing the request. But instead it is just a simple help of touring the Department and giving the word to the employees.
"Is that all, Ms. Vivaldi? I would love to make a grand tour of the Planet Room for you." he said and then cleared his throat.
"Is that all, Ma'am?" he said in a chivalrous manner.
He then turned and acted as if he was about to leave.
