After that experience with Hannah, Tyl didn't see her for the next couple of weeks. Turns out, she went on a vacation at the end of the week (Tyl checked up on her outlook calendar). It was a bit of a bummer for him but because of him being new at the job there was lot's to learn and catch up on, therefore he didn't have too much time to delve on it.
Outside of work, he went on a date from an app and had a nice time with the woman. They saw each other a few times over the next couple of weeks as well, had sex and were generally enjoying each other's company. It felt like it could be beginning of something.
Thus when a couple of weeks later Tyl bumped into Hannah again during his morning routine, he felt excited and conflicted at the same time. He thought about going in for a short hug again to greet her but Hannah quickly forwarded her hands for a handshake. It seemed like she was having some conflicts of her own.
She shared her about her holiday trip with her on-again off-again 'boyfriend' and seemed like she was trying to forget about their little exchange before she left. Tyl was a bit disappointed but relieved that he didn't need to further think about his conflict of emotions.
And so nothing happened for some days. Then, one morning, while he was working he suddenly received a message from Hannah on teams that she needed some help with some technical issue and if he could swing by. He hadn't seen her in the morning that day and wondered what happened. Anyway, he replied sure and went to her office. She waved him over to her desk and asked how she could reset the status on their company's portal. Hannah was older and he could now see that she wasn't technically very proficient about computers. He helped her gladly and they started chatting, with him standing beside her desk.
She thanked him for his help and was impressed by his acumen, but Tyl chuckled to himself, she really was hopeless with this stuff and made him seem like some sort tech guru. As they were just telling about their general work experience at the new Company, she told that one issue for her was that she needed to catch a bus 15 mins before her 8hrs were up and waiting for logging out till then meant that she had to wait another half hour before the next bus came.
Tyl felt sorry for predicament and thought about how he could help her out. Suddenly he had an idea, he suggested she use one of those schedule clicking extension on her chrome browser and leave with enough time for the bus, it was just 15 odd minutes any way, she could say she was at the toilet if someone asked why she logged out after she left, which was not going to happen anyway. She felt pleased with the idea but was scared with the technical aspect of it. She had no knowledge about browser extensions etc and how to use them. Tyl suggested a dead simple one called Delayed Click, something he had actually recommended to other relatives of him in the past for it's simplicity.
He went to her side and started setting up the Delayed Click extension. Now they were really closed to each other, with her sitting on her chair and him hunching over beside her. Suddenly she sniffed him and said that his perfume smelled amazing. He joking brought his neck closer to her and told her that she could have a deeper sniff. She did and playfully slapped him on the shoulders. This whole act suddenly brought back the memories of there previous encounter and both of them got super excited.
