Isabella picked up the document from Rimmerfors' desk to make the copies he had asked for. She swung round, twirling her pale reddish short skirt to reveal the backs of her thighs as she left the Head of Missions' office. She went straight to the media room at the far wall of the open-plan office, dodging around the two interns' desks, in the process swishing her skirt seductively. Paul Rimmerfors followed this progress of the girl, mesmerised by her attractiveness. He took a few more minutes before he could pull his mind back to his work.
His concentration was broken again when her laughter rang out. The chief accountant was passing by the media room, and had stopped to share a moment with Isabella. Rimmerfors marveled at how she got along with people at all levels. Then the girl swished those so bewitching hips back to his office to bring the copied material.
"Here it is, Mr Rimmerfors!" and lay them on the corner of the desk. She turned round and walked back to the reception desk.
'Does she have to swing her skirt like that, really? She is torturing me,' he thought.
That day it seemed by her every action that she was out to get him. He thought to himself it must be because it was a Friday and she was looking forward to an amorous evening with her beau.
The following morning, he arrived in the office at 9am. Isabella, ever faithful, ever sure, had already opened the office, switched on the PABX, servers and WiFi connection ready for use. Rimmerfors tried to reconcile the two parts of the girl's personality and failed miserably. How can she be so carefree in her behaviour, yet be so reliable and dependable? He reflected that her language seemed more polished than he would have expected of an office girl. What was her background, he wondered.
He was setting out the Mission's annual measurables, which was a very involving task. The previous day despite Isabellas antics he had done a huge part of it, but he had to finish it today, as it was to be tabled at the meeting on the Monday.
Everyone left at 12:30 to start their weekend activities. Rimmerfors had a little more to do so he asked Isabella to give him some time to finish off. She smiled sweetly and said, "I am not in any hurry, Mr Rimmerfors. May I bring you something to eat from the Chicken Inn?"
He was struck by her thoughtfulness. "Yes please. Get me a medium pizza and a Diet Coke," handing her some money. "Get something for yourself, too."
She swung out of his office and out of the door in her seductive manner, leaving his thoughts scrambled. 'It was her fault I did not finish this document yesterday, and it seems today she will do the same,' he thought.
He worked feverishly, wanting to take advantage of her absence. She took about 30 minutes, probably talking to somebody at the restaurant in her usual friendly manner, and forgetting the time. But instead of feeling irritated by her long absence, he was grateful that he could get more work done.
When she came swinging through the door, his heart jumped. She went into the kitchenette, placed his food on a plate and carefully lay it on his table, this time almost tiptoeing out again. At the reception, he could see her sitting in such a way as to expose her thighs, but as the desk was covered in front, he wished the gap at the top of that covering was wider; he might be able to see more of those thighs.
Presently he got to the end of the year in his planning and now needed to make copies for the meeting's attendees. "Isabella, could I please have seven copies of this?" She sashayed in, took it from his hands and swung her hips again in that provocative manner on her way to the media room. He followed her with his eyes as he started on his pizza.
