The early morning sun cast long, lazy shadows across the perfectly manicured lawn of Karen's suburban home. Inside, the air hummed with the quiet efficiency of a well-ordered life. The scent of lemon polish lingered from her morning cleaning spree, and the gentle melody of classical music drifted from the living room. Karen, at 35, was the picture of domestic tranquility, a role she'd cultivated with meticulous care to hide her torrid affair with Alex, her manager at work (search Housewife Discovers Her True Desire).
Her husband, Mike, was a successful engineer, often working late, weekends and traveling, which left Karen with the sole responsibility of the house and their two children plus a flourishing career since she returned to work after raising the kids. It had been a demanding few years, and the decision to hire a live-in nanny had been a welcome respite.
The interview process turned out to be less troubling than Karen and her husband though it would be. Of the eight candidates they interviewed, Sarah was the clear choice. The other seven showed up dressed like they coming to mow the lawn. Sarah was the only serious woman, polished and professional in her knee length hound's-tooth skirt, crisp white blouse, nude pantyhose and smart 2" heels. Once Karen and Mike decided to introduce Sarah to the children, Sarah got down on her knees on the carpet, putting herself at their level and the children immediately responded to her like she was their big sister. Her cool demeanor and how she interacted with the children clinched it for her.
When Karen looked over at Mike, he was looking intently at Sarah's nylon covered soles, popped completely out of her heels as she crouched down. Sarah then reached back and slipped her heels off so that she could sit Indian style to talk to the kids. Karen could plainly see Mike's daze going back and forth between Sarah's feet and her discarded heels. This didn't surprise Karen as she knew Mike has a thing for heels and hose. If she was being honest with herself, Karen felt a bit of a stirring herself, seeing this gorgeous girl getting comfortable and fitting in with her family within moments. She wouldn't describe her feelings as sexual as much as love for Sarah, like how she felt towards a sister.
