What about your wife? Will she be joining us for dinner?
I shake my head No, she’s busy with work as well
She looks relieved as she sits down and uncrosses her legs before crossing them again to give you a flash of thigh.
I’m glad it’s just us then. I’ve been looking forward to this all day
I'm male Yeah, I have to pick her up
She smiles as she starts to gather her things, and puts on a thin coat over the tight pencil skirt and blouse.
That's sweet of you. How long have you been married?
I'm a beautiful female I don't have one actually...
he glances at your ring finger
Well, aren't you a lucky man? Such a beautiful woman like yourself without a ring on that finger. I'm shocked!
Shakes my head She doesn't need to thank you.
She smiles shyly, trying to act casual but feeling a bit nervous.
Are you sure? I don't want to cause any trouble in your marriage.
I shake my head no I'm single actually
She smiles
I see. I'm single too.
Her eyes wander down your body and back up again, taking in every inch of you.
Are you going to be alright with a younger woman?
you shake your head I’m not married anymore remember?
Oh yeah, I almost forgot. My apologies.
I look up at him with my big blue eyes as we walk into the restaurant and he pulls out my chair for me.
you turn to me umm well.. we aren’t together anymore
she looks a bit surprised Oh, I see. She gives you a look of sympathy and concern. That must have been difficult. Are you doing okay?
Shakes head no she won't be able to make it
She smiles at him, her eyes sparkling with excitement. I'm looking forward to it. It's been such a long day. Just me and you?
you shake your head No she won't be joining us. She doesn't really like me having guy friends..
She raises an eyebrow Guy friends? Is that what we are now? I think you’re a little old to be having ‘guy friends’. Besides, she must be pretty secure in your marriage if she doesn’t mind you having dinner with a younger woman like me.
I'm a male Oh umm no she isn't sorry
Oh, I see...
She gives a small smile
Is that because you don't want her here? Or she doesn't want to come out tonight?
I smile No it's just me.. I mean we're divorced remember?
Oh yes of course! You are free. Sorry about that.
I look down at my desk noticing a few crumbs from an earlier snack.
Excuse me while I clean up real quick before we leave for dinner
I look at my hands as I fidget nervously i...uhm...d-don't have one...
My eyes widen slightly as you admit to being single. I bite my lip and look up at you through my eyelashes.
Well then, it'll just be the two of us?
I shake my head no I'm single actually I give you a warm smile
Her face lights up as she takes a seat across from you. She's wearing an attractive but professional outfit, her blue eyes sparkling with excitement.
Well that's great news! Just us then.
I chuckle I'm single actually
She looks at you, blushing a little.
I see. Well that makes this easier then.
She smiles as she picks up her purse and starts to stand.
