Suddenly there she was.
He had known it was a possibility. He wasn't sure if he hoped to see her, or if he preferred the memories. It didn't matter now, because there she was.
Of course, there were the changes you'd expect after almost 30 years. She wasn't wearing the uniform of her youth, t-shirt and jeans. Weight gain, well, haven't we all? How she moved though was the same, unhurried, carefree, too confident really for her age at the time. It seemed to fit her well now. But he remembered that contrast in her then, the look and feel of maturity, paired with the uninhibited goofiness of a kid. It was unique, or at least he had thought so.
What really struck him now was the change he saw in her eyes. He realized it was the eyes that captivated him as a young man. They had been innocent, full of mischief, yet at the same time, you felt like she saw you, really saw you and held you without judgement. He hadn't had a chance. Now the mischief was gone. And what might have looked like innocence in her younger self, just looked like one who is lost on a middle-aged woman.
Finally she saw him. Just for the briefest moment the girl she had been surfaced in her eyes. He felt almost weightless yet stuck to the floor. Too soon those eyes settled into something harder. With resignation in her voice she said, "bring it in", and hugged him fiercely. He couldn't match her enthusiasm and just stared at her once she broke away. Was that a twinkle, a bit of mischief, coming thru? The smile might have been subdued but her eyes spoke volumes. Maybe she was still the same deep down. Maybe it was just the surface that had faded.
That is not how it happened.
She had been there, at the career fair, representing her office. They were always on the lookout for bodies, if not talent. Besides, she liked talking to young people. He had not been there. His boss preferred to go, and he was busy with real work anyway. She wore make up just in case but had decided against heels. She wanted to look good, but she would be standing all day.
She found his co-workers. He wasn't there. She was relieved, though she really wanted to see him. She would have liked to give them a hard time. Joke around that she was gunning for his job. That sort of thing. The place was hopping though. They had a good crowd of students to reel in, as did she. She left it alone.
He did see her though. the career fair liked to post pictures, and there she was hugging the old mascot and waving at the camera. Big smile. Big tits. (no, no, stop it!) She still looked goofy and uninhibited. Old now but still that girl. Maybe next time.
