So the truth was, I'd hired her for her tits. The benefit was, she was sharp as a tack, the heart and soul of the daily operations as it turned out. The fact that Theresa had looks, and like I said a great pair of tits that she (sort of) enjoyed showing off was an obvious factor when I had hired her on. Being damn intelligent and multi-functional, I only learned after she had started working for me. Theresa had an olive complexion, long dark hair with deep-set brown eyes and full lips that were just begging to be kissed every time she looked at you. And boy was I tempted to do that too. Something made harder by the fact we spent a great deal of time alone in the office with no one else there to walk in or bother us, except on very rare occasions.
As a small business owner, most of which was conducted via the Internet, we had a staff of twenty additional employee's all of which worked from their homes, so it was rare that any of them had to come in, unless it was for training, especially new hires, which Theresa and I handled together. But beyond that, it was usually just her and I that were there all alone during the day.
Maybe it wasn't such a good idea that I had hired her either. Though I'm not sure I could have done without her once she had settled in. The problem was, I couldn't stop thinking about her, what she looked like nude, and those amazing tits...always the tits. Sometimes Theresa would wear something just a "little" lower in the neck on occasion, that would give me a titillating view of those soft firm slopes, though never anything overly suggestive, or even daringly sexual if there even was such a thing. And I was always careful about looking too, never making it obvious or overtly flirtatious in any way. For one, I didn't want to chase away the best employee I'd ever had, and two...Theresa had a boy friend.
Oh and three. I was twice her age. Theresa was just a year out of high school at nineteen, and for all I knew, still a virgin though just to look at her, I highly doubted that. I was thirty-eight, married and now divorced, and adding to that, being so busy with the new business as of late, I had put everything else on hold, including my sex-life. Now that things were starting to take shape the way I'd envisioned it, the old urges were coming back again, but there were no prospects on the horizon at the moment. Just my right hand and secret fantasies of Theresa that I allowed myself to indulge in periodically throughout the course of the day.
But that's as far as it ever went.
Theresa had been working for me for over three months when she came into work on Monday after a long three-day weekend. She looked like shit, first time I ever remembered her looking all haggard and worn out. I could only imagine, but then I saw the look on her face and realized it hadn't been one of those kind of weekends.
"Hey? You ok?" I asked. She looked like she was about to cry at any moment. I'd never seen her look like that before.
"I will be," she answered, then stiffened her lip to keep it from quivering. "Eventually."
Normally I wouldn't have pushed it, given her some space, but I was truly concerned as she sat there not at all looking like she had any desire to be.
"Listen kiddo," something I always called her around the office, which usually never failed to bring a smile, but this time it didn't. "If you need some more time..."
Theresa hadn't as yet earned any time off work, but I wasn't about to offer it without paying her for it either and told her so. "Thank you, I appreciate the offer, but really Jack, I'm better off here than moping around at home by myself."
She'd only called me "Mr. Meuff" once, I'd told her straight away that from now on, it was Jack, and she had called me by my first name ever since. Though that first initial conversation had been interesting enough the day I'd hired her. She had sat looking at me for a moment, then with all seriousness on her face she grinned. "I'm sorry, but you do know what that sounds like yes?"
Yeah, I'd heard it a lot, especially growing up in the States though my parents were Dutch and had brought me over here to live when Dad got transferred, and though my last name wasn't exactly pronounced like that, it didn't take long for people to pick up on the obscene phrase and most often question me about it.
"Yeah, but it's pronounced more like 'Meeuuf', not...me off," I told her, though it obviously did sound a little like I was saying that whenever I introduced myself. "Jack Meuff," I said once again...and laughed as Theresa blushed. Another reason I had decided to hire her on the spot, obviously she was a good sport, open-minded, and didn't get all freaked out over something that could be even more awkward than it already was.
"So...what happened?" I asked her back in the present though the memory of that day still lingered in the back of my mind as I looked at her, her face still reddened with the non-meant implication as I had shook her hand.
"Bobby and I broke up," she said simply. Though I was pleased that she felt comfortable enough to tell me that for one, and pleased in another way as though I had only met him one time, I hadn't liked him then when I did. He seemed smug, over confident, and obviously full of himself, though I had never told her that.
"How come?"
"It's pretty icky," she said her eyes threatening to spill over.
"So's my name if you say it wrong," I told her, "Not that that is mind you...but sometimes people look at me like I am or something."
That she did smile at...remembering, just as I'd been doing, and then actually laughed. "Thank you...I sort of needed that," she said, though once again, the smile had disappeared.
"Seriously Theresa, you can tell me, anything...you should know that by now," and hopefully she did as she looked up and began speaking though the tears which had been threatening to fall began to.
"Well, on Friday when you let me off half a day to make a long weekend even a longer one? I drove over to my boyfriends place to surprise him, and got a little surprise of my own." I handed her a tissue, she blew her nose, took another for her eyes that were now smeared with mascara and continued. "Wanting to surprise him, I let myself in, and first thing I heard was some girl screaming out at the top of her lungs as she came."
