Alana sat at her desk struggling to concentrate on her work, she felt confused, not quite right, as she wondered whether that actually was him she had seen across the office, a large open plan office near London Bridge. Although she had thought of him often since they had said goodbye 15 or so years previously she hadn't thought about what she would do or what could happen if she saw him again.
Daniel was her mother's ex, they had been together only for a few years but the relationship ended when Alana was 14. Their last contact was when he had said goodbye with a hug and him wishing her a happy life. Daniel was white, tall and good-looking and her mother Jackie was short and thick and proudly bore her St Lucian heritage. Dark-skinned and beautiful Jackie fell hard for Daniel as he DJ'ed at dances she had helped organise and their affair had burned brightly until the pressures of an interracial relationship and her mother's growing affinity for her own sex had resulted in an amicable parting.
The man she had seen across the office was definitely Daniel, she had only briefly glimpsed his face but he was instantly recognisable. He was older, of course, with salt and pepper hair, the kind of man often described as a silver fox, but he still dressed sharply in a well cut suit. Alana's confusion, however, was not not so much about who he was but why she felt as she did especially the growing warmth between her thighs that she had not felt for some time and which made her shift uneasily in her chair.
Now nearing 30 Alana had had her share of both men and women but for the last few years she had been feeling increasingly as if she was missing out on something. She was tall, certainly a lot taller than her mother at least, at 5.6" and with a deep brown skin and slender body. She felt good with her body and thought she had a cute ass and nice perky tits, although sometimes she wished her nipples were not quite so prominent as she liked the feeling of going braless in the summer; but that too often attracted the wrong type of attention from the pervs on the underground. She had also noticed the effect her body could have on her co-workers, especially her boss who more than once had simply lost all control of her words during their one to one meetings especially if she were to straighten her shoulders and arch her back just a little. She knew though that this was a game that she should not play too often.
Daydreaming, she tried to imagine what Daniel's life had been like since she had last seen him, she had imagined him married with babies or living some jet-set life but she was struggling to convince herself that any of her musings had any substance. 'Get a grip' she thought to herself as she realised she had done nothing productive for the last twenty minutes so she got up from her desk, stretched, and walked across the office to the tea room.
Waiting for the kettle to boil she wasted time checking through the various newsletters on the noticeboard until she found what she had not realised that she had been looking for. There he was, a head and shoulders picture of Daniel looking serious directly into the camera above a caption announcing the imminent arrival of the new Regional Director: Daniel Talbot. She felt herself going slightly weak at the knees and her heart began to beat faster until she caught herself. 'Seriously girl, wtf, he must be 60 at least and you don't have any Daddy issues". Smiling to herself she walked back to her desk but with a lightness in her step that had not been there earlier.
She got home at about 6 that evening, the rest of the day had been something of a blur, she knew that she had had a 2 hour meeting but for the life of her she had no idea what had been said. As soon as she had got through her front door she had stripped down to her bra and panties feeling the urge for a nice long shower to wash the work day away. She loved this feeling, to be in full control of her life, able to relax semi-naked in her own space, nothing or no-one telling her to do this or that. This was also the time when she felt the most sensual as she prowled around the apartment, music playing softly in the background.
She sat down at her kitchen table and opened her laptop to check emails and social media and subconsciously found her way to LinkedIn, rarely the starting point for her browsing. Laughing to herself she typed his name into the search box and sure enough there he was, the same picture that she had seen in the office newsletter. She scrolled down reading through a fairly generic executive level work history, she then moved on to Facebook and Instagram, easily finding him on both as she began the serious business of looking for any evidence of a wife or girlfriend. She checked herself when she realised that her left hand had found itself inside her bra cup and was gently teasing her right nipple was sending a sudden ache throbbing through her. Laughing to herself she got up and noticed a slight damp patch on the front of her panties.
