Kirk arrived at his office early to get his emails out of the way to start his day fresh. He was nearly finished when one of the remaining few caught his eye. The subject line read:
"Happy Valentine's Day to you and yours!"
Kirk thought it a somewhat odd message for his business inbox. The Internet Service Provider silkroad.com.cn gave Kirk pause as he noted that the "cn" denoted China. Curious, he read the message:
"I awoke this morning, as I have a lot recently, and thought about you. So I thought I'd let you know by wishing you and yours a great Valentine's Day!"
I hope to speak with you soon.
Li Su
He quickly recalled the sender -- a prick teasing Chinese computer programmer that he'd interviewed a few months earlier.
His mind flashed back to the day he'd met her.
Kirk and his small team had submitted bids on two large Air Force contracts with work to be done onsite at a New Mexico facility. To his utter surprise, they'd won both bids and were in desperate need of programmers who wrote code in a new esoteric programming language. After hiring all he could find, Kirk outsourced some work to a consultant on the East Coast.
He became hopeful of a much needed new hire when some of his team returned from the East Coast raving about the skills of a young Asian programmer. They were excited because, although she was working as a contractor with the East Coast consultant, she lived on the West Coast much closer to Kirk's facility. They wanted to hire her if possible. Trusting his team, Kirk agreed to meet her twice when she visited. His first meeting was to share his vision of the opportunities he saw for skilled programmers. The second meeting after she met the rest of the team was for him to close the deal.
She arrived wearing a crisp white suit, white hose and matching white heels.
"Unusually well dressed!" Kirk thought as he shook her hand and took in her long slender fingers. "And tall for an Asian lady" guessing her height at 5'6".
Her long curly, blonde streaked hair was a bit unusual too since her resume indicated that she only recently immigrated to the US. As she was 26, some twenty years Kirk's junior, he thought maybe he might be out of touch with the younger set.
He offered her a seat at the circular table in his office where he'd placed a notepad in case he needed it. His team had informed him that while she wrote English perfectly, her pronunciation of some words was difficult to understand. Asking her to write the word in question would help keep the conversation moving. She sat with her legs to the side of the table, crossed at the ankles which caused her knees to spread wide enough to give Kirk a view of her inner thighs.
Each time she needed to move forward to write on the pad, her knees spread even wider letting Kirk see her blue panties and their red floral design. At first Kirk thought the unladylike posture was accidental but he quickly learned otherwise. When his assistant knocked and brought in a pot of hot water for the tea Li Su had requested, her knees snapped closed. As soon as his assistant left, Li Su reopened her knees even wider.
Within five minutes Kirk realized that his time might not bear fruit. He learned that the reason Li Su chose to work for the East Coast contractor was that her husband was teaching at a nearby university. He'd taken the position after no West Coast school offered him a job which would allow him to earn a green card then citizenship. Working for Kirk's contractor allowed her to not only work in her chosen field but also have company paid travel to see her husband. After a few more spread leg notes that she rolled forward to write and her not flinching when Kirk looked directly up her skirt, he decided to end their chat and let her get on with her visit.
After her day long meetings, Li Su returned to his office for Kirk to close a deal which he knew wasn't likely. As Li Su resumed the seat she'd used earlier, her legs were spread even wider and her skirt raised about six inches up her slender thighs. She seemed intent on letting him look all he wanted. He did, looked at her face which betrayed a sly smile. Intent on closing the deal, Kirk offered to pay for twice a month trips to the East Coast for conjugal visits with her hubby. Although unusual, he reasoned that he was already footing the bill on contracts paid to her employer. He had no good response when she said "That would be nice but what happens after the contracted work is completed?"
His assistant knocked and asked Kirk if she could speak with him. He walked out of the office and closed the door behind him. "Its 4:30 and she's got a six o'clock flight. Will you be done soon? I'm supposed to take her to the airport."
"I haven't closed the deal yet and might not so I need some more time. You can leave and I'll take her to the airport" he said and returned to his office.
As he opened the door he was greeted by an enticing sight. Still seated, Li Su was bent over at the waist leaning forward to smooth a wrinkle at the ankle of her hose. Her suit jacket had fallen away from her chest revealing her pale breasts that were larger than Kirk might have thought given her slender build. "Wow, she's sporting some heavy artillery!" Kirk mused. As she began to sit back up, he caught a simultaneous top/bottom glimpse. "And she's showing off something else I like -- matching underwear!" he thought.
"We've run a bit longer than I planned so I'll be taking you to the airport if that's OK?"
"That would be great!" Li Su replied with more enthusiasm than was warranted.
Kirk began to sum up his selling points in staccato fashion given the press of time. Li Su seemed to be listening intently and looked him directly in the eyes. Though her eyes were still and unblinking behind her coke bottle thick glasses, the same could not be said for her legs. They were now gapped as wide as her fitted skirt would allow giving Kirk a full view. Noticing that her display had his full attention, she began opening and closing them. As she closed them tightly one last time, her face flushed slightly which Kirk noticed only after diverting his eyes to resume looking at her face.
Li Su smiled as if she was drifting in a pleasant dream world of her own. Knowing that further conversation was not going to be productive, he suggested they'd better leave for the airport.
"We'll be in touch shortly." Kirk told her.
"That would be nice." Li Su said. "And may I have one of your business cards in case I need to get in touch?" Kirk gave her his card. "Let me give you one of mine too!" Li Su said and bent to retrieve one from her purse on the floor. She spread her legs even wider letting Kirk see a dark wet spot at the crotch of her panties and hose. She accepted the card as she slowly stood smiling as she saw him still looking between her legs. He noted the Silkyroad.com.cn notation on her email address.
As they arrived at his car, she commented. "Nice car! I've never ridden in a Porsche before!" He opened the door for her and she awkwardly sat on the low seat, gapping her legs wide and lifting her feet without closing her knees.
"Roses!" Kirk thought as he stood close enough to identify the floral print on her panties. After a repeat 'Roses on full display performance' upon their arrival at the airport, Kirk watched as she walked briskly to the entrance. She turned and looked over her shoulder, seeming certain that he'd be watching. She smiled and waved as he slipped the car into gear and pulled away from the curb.
She'd quickly responded to the offer letter he sent the following week. As he expected, she politely declined their offer and Kirk thought that was the last he'd hear of her. But now she sends an email. "Has she changed her mind?" Kirk though as he replied to her message:
Hello Li Su,
How thoughtful of you. I appreciate your message and wondered if you'd decided to join the team after all.
Warm regards,
Kirk
Her quick reply made him dismiss the thought
