I was a ship agent, I worked with foreign customers getting ships loaded with the product they were buying. A Japanese company send female product engineer to represent them during the loading, basically I am with the person 24/7 for 4-5 days. Almost the entire time she was dressed in coveralls, a hard hat and safety glasses, she was a very nice person to work with, but there was no attraction because we were very busy and she was covered head to foot.
The day we finished to loading, I offered to take her to the airport, she had a late afternoon flight and it wasn't out of my way. I got to her hotel to pick her up in plenty of time, she told me her flight had been delayed and she didn't want to wait at the airport, I parked and met her in the lobby. She told me they airline said it might just be an hour for a weather delay, she offer to buy us a drink. Immediately I noticed how beautiful she was without all of her gear on, she had on makeup and a cute summer dress.
We went in the bar and got a table, her English was good, but her accent was charming, we sat there and talked about her life in Japan and I found myself just staring into her eyes. She called the airline, it was going to be another 2 hours. She said if I had to go she could take a cab, but I couldn't tear myself away. We had another drink and found ourselves holding hands, we had both had been up for about 20 hours, she said we could go back to her room for a nap, with a smile.
I was married with two kids, nothing I would have loved more than to go back to her room with her, I was sure no napping was involved. But I had to say I couldn't. I took he to the airport and she gave me a great kiss good-bye.
