When Jack married Marsha, he thought he knew what he was doing. What he thought, and what happened, however, weren't the same thing.
Jack had been married before, in his mid-twenties, but it had ended badly β she left him for another woman. And that had done a number on him; his self-confidence took a nose dive. His social world shrank to just his family and friends he had before that marriage. It literally took years before he was almost his old self. His confidence returned, and as it did, he developed more and more female friends. And then he started working at Hendershot, Incorporated, a small design firm in San Francisco.
He was receptive to the HR policies β no office relationships, treat men and women alike, communicate to your manager, and trust in your team. If there was a problem with someone, try to work it out between you; if not, get your manager involved early and get it dealt with. All of which seemed a rational approach to the modern world of work.
Then, however, he met Marsha and forgot it all! He had to walk past her to get from his department to the mailroom, and on his first trip he almost fell over; not only was she one of the prettiest women he'd ever seen, but her blouse was straining against its buttons. She was exceedingly stacked. Jack almost walked into a wall before he recovered. She looked up at him as he stumbled and smiled.
From that day on, Jack and Marsha grew closer. He took every opportunity to stop by her desk, and she began to make slight adjustments to her clothing when he came by. A button would get unbuttoned. She began to lean forward and press her arms in from the sides, giving him a generous view of her very large, pale breasts. And for his part, Jack made sure to perch on her desk in a way that revealed the outline of his large cock.
Finally, the evening came when they were the last two in the office.
Leaving together, Jack invited her for drinks, but she declined, saying her two teenagers were home for the summer, and they got her attention when they were. "But," she added, "please keep asking me!"
He walked her to her car, and then went to a small restaurant for his dinner.
Jack and Marsha began to meet regularly. For lunch or to walk down by the Bay. Other times to sit and eat in one of the many outdoor locations near the office. She eventually revealed that she had been married 3 times before; the two girls were from her first marriage. Since they'd been raised by their father, she was now out to make up for lost time and the three of them were becoming friends more than mother and daughters. The girls were 18 and 19, and they had taken the place of any interest in men β for the time being.
Jack grew more and more fascinated by Marsha, and they began to wonder how to deal with going out in an office with such strict HR policies.
It was a Friday morning when Jack walked past Marsha's desk, only to see her in tears. A number of the other staff were clustered around her, and he joined them.
"Oh, I feel so silly about this!" Marsha said. "My girls decided to leave for college a week early, and it caught me by surprise. They haven't even left and here I am, crying my eyes out and missing them and they haven't left! You all must think I'm a fool." She looked around at her colleagues.
"No, dear, I did the same thing last year when my boys left for a camping trip before starting school. Everyone can tell you what a hot mess I was." Said Carrie, the office manager. There were nods and murmurs of agreement all around. "The best solution was that we all went out after work and had a few drinks together and everyone gave me room to sort myself out. So, drinks are on the company tonight; six PM at Harrington's. Be there or be square! Now, let's get some work done!"
With that Marsha brightened up and everyone got to work. Motivated by free drinks, they all managed to get their work complete way early, so the time was moved to 5PM to take advantage of happy hour. The hostess managed to get everyone seated in a private room, and an evening of food and drink commenced. Marsha shared about how her daughters were beautiful and brilliant, and Jack figured that was the mother talking.
Others told stories about their kids, and eventually, the only ones left were Carrie, the office manager, Marsha and Jack. Then they were joined by a woman who neither Jack or Marsha knew β but who obviously knew Carrie. They kissed deeply and held each other the way intimate friends do.
"Hi, I'm Wendy, Carrie's wife. I had to come get her because she's too drunk to make it home on her own! Isn't she cute?" Marsha and Jack nodded.
"Jack, as your manager, I have something to say." Said Carrie, slurring her words a bit. "I think you should take Marsha home and screw the living daylights out of her. That will make her forget all about her daughters!"
Marsha and Jack were stunned. The office manager was violating HR Policy β and not only that, she was giving voice to something they had both wanted.
