      Passion in the Office

      Mary was a redhead, and a single mother, I learned this from the HR files. I also remembered that she was now twenty five as I had been part of the interviewing panel two years ago. In the office in which we worked she was the Cashier, and a very good one, as being the Accountant in that same office myself I knew I could rely on her to bring me very precise and accurate statements of the rents collected from the various properties that the company owned, and the unpaid rents.

      She had cut her hair quite short and dyed it a bit, as was the fashion in those days, I suppose a victim of the times as her red hair was actually auburn and would have been gorgeous with long flowing locks, but never mind.

      Earlier in the week the managing director announced that the company had been taken over by a bigger property company. We were all naturally concerned about whom we would be working for next week, or indeed if we would be working at all.

      We, Mary and I, were asked to produce a financial report on various properties for the new company, so that involved both if us having to put in some extra hours – overtime it’s called – to get the report ready.

      On the second evening Mary and I were the last to leave the office, and it was dark outside.

      I’m hungry, can we go and eat? I pleaded.

      Good idea, she agreed.

      We decided to find some food, not really a date, but just something to eat together. I was keen on the new Italian restaurant, but Mary told me she preferred Indian food, and took me to another restaurant just a few yards along from the new gleaming Italian shop, to a dark window with a door leading into room full of small tables each neatly spread with a white cloth, and polished cutlery.

      The proprietor wearing a turban greeted us full of bows and smiles, and we appeared to be the only customers, but they were open all day and had many customers at other times, I learned. The Indian waiters were all dressed in smart white coats buttoned to the chin with gold colour clips.

      I do like Indian food especially as I had lived and worked in India, and realized that each region had its own specialties. I have no idea why I had never been to this restaurant before as my office was only a few hundred yards away.

      I cannot remember what we ordered but it was very good, and left our mouths tingling, and we each had a beer to go with it.

      As we paid the bill and left the restaurant it was close to ten o’clock and Mary asked me;

      It’s dark now, can you walk with me to my flat, please?

      Her flat was about a quarter of a mile away, and was in one of those old tall Victorian buildings that had recently been converted. The planning regulations forbid developers to change the frontage of the building, but they could completely gut and rebuild behind that frontage, with the result that some floors divided some of the ornate stone windows in
