Finding someone using the apartment laundry room wasn't unusual, but Simon wasn't expecting to see anyone there at three in the morning, much less an attractive woman.
Simon worked late weekly would come down to the building's basement to the laundry room. In the years he lived there he rarely ever saw anyone.
She had short black hair and appeared to be about ten years older than him. She was dressed in a red bikini top, denim cutoff shorts, and a pair of sandals, all of which showed off her curvy body which Simon drank her up.
She finally noticed Simon. "Oh, hello," she said in a friendly voice. "I didn't think anyone came down here at this time of night. I guess I'm not the only one who has the same idea of doing laundry at this time." She then nodded at the laundry basket that he was still holding.
Simon was snapped out of the trance of staring at her. "Yes," he said. "I work late so this is the only time I can do it." He set his laundry basket down next to hers. "I'm Simon Mason," he said as he offered his hand out to her.
"Roberta Walker," she said, taking his hand and shaking it. "I just moved here about a week ago with my husband. I have really bad insomnia so I'm up at all hours of the night."
"Husband?" Simon thought. "So much for my luck with her." He was trying to keep his eyes on her eyes but it he was finding it difficult. Her ample breasts were barely covered by her bikini top, and her shorts were so low cut he could see pubic curls.
"Sorry to hear about your insomnia," Simon managed to mutter out. "I hope it doesn't happen too often."
"It happens a lot," Roberta replied. "It because my husband doesn't fuck me the way he should."
