Sofia finally arrived at work after an arduous ride on the bus downtown. It was a short walk from the bus stop to the law office where she worked. She tried and tried to get the image of the young man on the bus out of her head. The way he handled her and insulted her as he left, was still weighing heavily upon her. She caught a glimpse of herself as she walked by the tall ceiling to floor mirrors in the lobby.
"God, I look like a tart." She whispered as she waited for the elevator to take her to the tenth floor, and Mr. Graves' office. She couldn't understand what had overcome her, dressing the way she did today. There was nothing to be done about it now, she would just have to ride it out, and hope that no one really noticed.
"Ms. Fazio!" Mr. Graves had the reputation of a bulldog in the office and in the courtroom. He was tall and heavyset and carried himself like a Mack truck when he moved around. A stack of files were slammed down on Sofia's desk as Mr. Graves stood towering over her. "These depositions have to be proofed, retyped and on my desk by eight o'clock tomorrow morning. If that means you have to stay here all night to complete them, so be it!" Sofia held her breath as he stood not inches from her, waiting for him to leave, but he didn't. "What are you wearing Ms. Fazio?"
Not knowing how to respond. "Ummm...clothes." She replied meekly, practically whispering.
"I'll have you know that this is a respectable law firm and I expect my employees to dress accordingly." Mr. Graves swung around to face her over the top of her desk. "However much I personally like the look," he chuckled "It's just not appropriate." He stomped back to his office, leaving Sofia cowering in her chair.
"Holy shit!" she said under her breath. "at least he likes the way I look." She went about her job, proof reading the depositions for tomorrow's court appearances. Her job was pretty hum drum for the most part, except for the days she was allowed to accompany her boss into the courtroom. Today was no different, file after file was proofed and corrected until there was a stack of them to be retyped. Some of the more senior paralegals had secretaries to do their typing. Sofia would need to do all of this on her own.
The day went on and the pile of files got smaller and smaller. Frequent trips to the copier to collect the finished work found more and more people staring at her and making comments to each other under their breath. She knew how revealing her clothing was, but she didn't realize it would cause this much of a stir. As five o'clock came and went,she still had one more file to complete. People were filing out of the office around her desk and making their way home. As she was typing, she noticed a small red dot flashing in the corner of the screen that she had never seen before.
"Sofia? Are you asleep?" A soft female voice chimed from over her shoulder. Sofia jumped as if startled and stood straight up in her chair.
"No Ms. Campbell." Sofia started. "I just phased out for a minute." Ms. Campbell was the office manager, and although Sofia and Ms. Campbell were on the same level in pay grade, reality was much different. Ms. Campbell had been with the firm for nearly two decades, and garnered a lot of respect in the firm.
"Sofia...you have been staring at that computer screen for nearly a half hour, I've been watching." She crossed her arms in front of her angrily and then tapped on the desk. "What do you think your wearing today anyway?" She chided "This isn't high school you know Sofia, you can't just wear anything your little heart desires." She walked back to the door to leave the office "I've got my eye on you Ms. Fazio."
"Fuck!" Sofia was so pissed at herself. Why did she do this, and what was with the lost time again. She quickly finished her work and made her way to the garage level of the building. "What the hell am I thinking." She said, with a disgusted tone in her voice. She didn't have a car, at least not anymore. As she turned to walk back up to the street she was shocked. There, right where she had parked it the day before was her car. She ran over to it and checked to make sure her key fit, and it did. Sofia dropped into the driver's seat and wrapped her arms around the steering wheel. "Oh, baby, what the fuck is going on." She sat and wept for a moment, half in fear and half in gladness that she had her car back.
The entire ride home was a blur. How the hell did she get home yesterday. What was with all the strange things happening to her. The masturbation in the shower, the dream,the reality of finding herself naked outside, and then the strange encounter with Mr. Gabon. As she drove closer to her apartment, things began to get fuzzy and by the time she pulled into the parking lot, she could barely think. "Okay, I just need to make it to my apartment." But the ground was tipping from side to side as she approached the door. The elevator was right there, she pushed the button and everything went black.
It was cold, her skin was wet and she was naked again. The familiar feel of grass under her, as she crawled forward without purpose. Suddenly she felt extremely aroused, and rolled onto her back, her fingers finding her pussy wet and wanton. She masturbated as the rain beaded off her skin and rolled into the grass all around her. Just as she thought she might orgasm, she felt like she was being dragged over the ground. Her hair was pulled taught above her head and the ground was no longer grass but thick, stinking mud. She felt her face go under, and then pop back up as her body was dragged by her hair. She tried to reach around to grab it and felt like it was going to be ripped from her scalp, but her arms did not respond. She kicked with her legs, but they just flailed in the air. Denied the orgasm she was so close to achieving, she was still aroused. Aroused but terrified.
"Ohhhhh, yessss, ohhhhh, My God!" Sofia was awakened by a fall from her sofa as her mouth knocked against the leg of the coffee table at its base. Still dazed and now in pain Sofia stood, wobbling and weak and quickly made her way to the bathroom to assess the damage. Her lower lip was bleeding but all her teeth were still there. "Oh, thank God." She had a beautiful smile and took impeccable care of her teeth. Knocking one out or breaking one would have destroyed her. She plopped down onto the toilet and began crying in earnest. She tried to remember anything about how she got into her apartment or how she even got home. There was nothing. She remembered being scolded by Ms.Campbell, and that is was it. She was so upset that she didn't even realize that she was completely naked until just then. "How did my clothes get off?" She started pacing in her bedroom, holding a piece of toilet paper to her lip which had stopped bleeding.
"Where are my clothes?" she yelled. She looked and looked, but found nothing, not a stitch. She was frantic, but then a horrible thought came into her mind. She unbolted the door to her apartment, and looked into the hallway. Hiding her nakedness with the door she saw her clothes, scattered down the hallway, leading to the elevator. Her clothes, but only her bra and panties.
She quickly threw on a robe and grabbed her keys. Hurriedly, she tucked the bra and panties into her robe, making sure no one was looking. She pressed the elevator button and as the doors opened, her skirt and blouse were kicked into the corner. She grabbed them before the door closed and ran back to her room, unlocking the door and dashing inside. Her shoes, someone must have grabbed them. They were nice, but not crazy nice. Once again Sofia found herself in tears as she realized that she must have stripped, or have been stripped on the way to her apartment. How many people witnessed this spectacle. It couldn't have been that late, she glanced over at the stove and it was only nine o'clock. Surely someone must have seen her.
She sat on the bed and threw her clothes into the corner, but instead of feeling angry she felt aroused. It came on her the same way it did in the dream. Sofia stood and shed the robe she was wearing and started to masturbate. Her blonde silky hairs mingled with her juices as she worked. Without even knowing, she found her self in the bathroom, spread legged on the toilet. She sat directly on the cold porcelain, the seat up and behind her. Without thinking she grabbed a pair of scissors from the shelf and began shearing off her silken bush. Playing with her clit she then snipped a bit more. She trimmed the hair until only thin stubble remained of her once proud triangle of fleece. She smiled, but then realized what she had done.
