"Where do we start?" Narcissa drawled, taking out some pieces of parchment her and I were working on.

Carlos situated himself on the chair, hoisting up his glasses so they were steadied on the bridge of his nose.

"¿Qué son éstos?" His sentence sounded like a question and I changed to look at Narcissa to see what her reply would be.
[what are these?]

"¿Puedes abstenerte de hablar en español, por favor?" Narcissa sounded bored with her words and I couldn't exactly blame her.
[can you refrain from speaking Spanish, please?]

His expression soured, What did she say? but he answered anyway. "¿Por qué?"

Narcissa looked over to me for a second before looking back. "Ella no puede entendernos."
[she can't understand us]

"Ah Aright."  He concluded in english, I blinked a few times I didn't know he could speak another language.

"I told him to not speak spanish, for your sake." Narcissa's voice in my head made me jump.

"Oh right, thanks." I said in my head, I didn't know if that's how it worked, but I saw her nod in the corner of my eye. At least I don't have to sit here feeling helpless.

"So I guess you went to the Wilson's?" Carlos said after a while as he scrutinised the parchment Narcissa handed to him.

"Yes we have they gave us nothing on the matter only that we could meet their son in 2 weeks time." Narcissa explained.

I coughed and added to her answer. "Although we have slight suspicions."

The man looked up and cocked and eyebrow. "What are they?" His accent did make it hard to understand his words.

I fiddled with the hem of my sleeve, "Mr Wilson, you stated he was a muggle also correct?" His eyes narrowed but he nodded. "-Right but, Miss Black and I suspected he isn't such thing and we have one reason that backs this."

The man leaned forward, placing both arms on his desk and interlocking his fingers, staring between me and Narcissa looking more intrigued then ever.

"Please do tell."

"I slipped into his mind, only because his attitude about his son taking the potion was nothing of what we both expected. But I couldn't get passed the barrier as I was thrown out immediately." Narcissa ranted as she picked at her finger nails.

"How must you be sure? The Wilson's are muggles no one knows a wizard with that name." The male insisted, I had to fight the urge not to punch him in the face.

"Well hasn't it crossed your mind that people may not be who they say they are." I muttered, my hands clenched together on my lap as he sent a glare my way before completely ignoring me and looking back towards Narcissa.

"Mr. Morales, have you ever sent a team of auror's to check on the people whom have drank this potion?" Narcissa challenged as she held his glare.

"I-um -no, I haven't but I don't seem why that's necessary they are muggles!" He slammed his fist on the table. Why is he so mad? is he hiding something?

"Minister, it doesn't matter if they are bloody penguins! they are helpless people who are getting threatened by a awful potion which might I remind you is because of wizards!" I explained, my jaw clenched, completely loosing my posture. "And this Mr Wilson, isn't who he says he is! and it won't surprise me that he may be involved with his potion!"

I watched as his face turned from red to a flush of purple. "Madam Roselle, I didn't invite you here to complain how I run my people! Mr Wilson cannot be any way related to magic, we have no files so don't come here and feed me lies!" At this I stood up abruptly, making my chair conjure a loud screeching sound. He flinched at the action making me roll me eyes.
