A New Friend

She almost heaved a sigh as she got out of the wet clothes. She observed his playful tone and that sort of made her feel at ease. And was he flirting with her right now, she asked herself.

NO! She exclaimed firmly in her mind. She was not about to do this to herself again. She did not intend to get her feelings into another bind that she was sure would most definitely end badly. And she had some dignity at the very least.

If this had taught her anything, it was the fact that her gut feeling was not to be taken light. She had had her reservations about this whole thing since the very first moment that he came to her in her office. So she did not know how to overlook it this time again. For the nearest future, she was intending on staying put.
