“Are you an officer? Must I answer to enter?”
*The man’s eyes widen slightly, astounded by the response, his smile disappearing. He coughs, looking around briefly before steadying his gaze back on the girl.*
“Something like that,” he responds cautiously, “I do need an answer.”
*Cici sighs, steadying her posture and lifting her chin slightly.”

*The man shakes his head slightly, baffled. He pauses for a moment, thinking, before shrugging his shoulders.*
“Very well. Head on through.”
