"Broken" is probably not the right word to use, probably more like unhooked would be a better description. Anyway, I could not reach it. It seems to be always the left strap, you know the one that runs halfway down your back, the one that you cannot reach unless you take of your shirt and spin your bra around to the front. In the middle of the day, in the middle of the kitchen and the neighbors are outside. I texted Michael, who was home and working from home in the basement.
"Can you help me with something." I sent him a text.
"Sure, Be right up." He sent back.
It was not long when I heard him climb the stairs from his work area and open the basement door, unlatch the dog gate, then come into view of where I was now, back in the office.
"What can I help you with?" He asked.
"Can you fix me; my bra strap has come undone again." I said.
"You know that I'm not very good at hooking them up, right?" He said.
"Along with unhooking them as well." I shot back not really knowing that I said that so fast.
The look on his face was a little sullen, he asked me to turn away from him. I felt him lift the back of my shirt and run his hands inside. He felt up my back and I fought back a shiver. He located the upper strap and then the lower one. He pulled on the upper one and I felt the cup of my left breast pull up and rewrap around it. Michael hooked my bra back up and I turned towards him and took both of my hands and readjusted both of my boobs in the bra in front of him.
"Better?" He asked.
"For now, I guess." I answered back.
He missed my little hint as he said, "Ok" the turned to head back downstairs and back to work.
He was always "my boobs man" and here he was just reclasping my bra and walking away instead of trying to unhook the other side? I guess that we had been working from home together for more than a year now. Maybe he was not interested anymore? Maybe I am not interested anymore? Then she thought, does he see me as a co-worker during the day?
Yes, that had to be it, neither of us have been really anywhere so that had to be it. When he was in the office and still when he does go in the office, he works with mainly women so there's always that thought somewhere in way back of mind that the one before strayed, so eventually so will Michael as well, or at least that was what was sometimes thought of. 20 plus years now and nothing even close to straying so it has to be the co-worker style work environment that we are existing in.
A day or so went by and still working like co-workers, I thought that I would try again. I had gotten the boys off to school and just returned from taking them to school. I went upstairs and actually lied down to take a little nap before work. The wonders of a small power nap. When I awoke, I realized that I had rolled over, maybe a few times, and the back strap of my bra had come unclasped again. Now, I could have just taken it off and re-clasp it myself but I thought that the boys were in school and we were home by ourselves again today. During my power nap I had quicky dreamt about Michael taking me a little rough and from behind, I was feeling a surly even in the morning.
I texted Michael to come and help me upstairs, not something that either of us normally do. It was not long before I could hear him open the basement door and begin climbing the two sets of stairs leading up to the hallway. He walked down the laminate floor hallway and pushed open our bedroom door.
