Closing the file she appraised the woman and said, "So, I see that you are with the Examinations Authority. Very nice. How long have you been within the Ministry now?" She could flip back through the file and see for herself, but she would rather engage in conversation than flip through a file all day.
As Antigone flipped through Chloe's file, there wasn't a hint of unease in Chloe's brain. She knew there was nothing incriminating in those pages. She smiled and bowed her head slightly at Antigone's offer of refreshment.
"Thank you, but no. I don't drink caffeinated beverages," Chloe explained. She was currently on this kick of believing that the human body was perfectly capable of providing its own energy if you eat the right food, exercise, and get enough sleep. Drinking caffeine, she had decided, made one's body dependent on outside sources for energy, and Chloe didn't want to depend on anything or anyone.
When Antigone looked back up and began the conversation, Chloe nodded politely.
"Yes, the examinations authority, that's correct. I've just been here a couple of months." Though it feels like I have been here for much longer because I mostly sit at my desk with nothing to do.
