Katie
tugged at the navy blue and white uniform. "Are you sure I have to wear
this?" Katie glanced up at her Aunt Penny. The pencil skirt came to just
above her knees; it had a small split, making her feel self conscious that her
legs were bare. Katie wore no stockings or tights. She was thankful she had
remembered to shave her legs this morning.
"It's
the only one in your size, dear." Katie was far from being skinny. She had
the voluptuous curves of a size twelve and a more than ample breast size. Her
aunt's uniform looked far more decent. Her skirt was longer and her top not as
low cut. "Trust me there is hardly anyone left in the offices at this
hour. A few hard-nosed lawyers with nothing better to do. Remember though,
always knock before entering an office."
Katie
tugged back her blond hair, wrapping a band around the wayward curls. She
followed her aunt down the long corridor of Henson and Henson Law.
"Are
you sure you want to do this, Katie? I'm sure there are much better jobs you
could find."
"I
need to earn my keep, and there's not much I can do. I really appreciate you
getting me this job."
"You
are no burden at all, my dear," Penny said with genuine affection. It
warmed Katie's heart that she still had someone who cared about her. The smile
on her aunt's face softened the aged creases around her eyes. Penny's dark hair
was streaked with grey and neatly pinned up on top of her head. "I'm
certainly not getting any younger, or faster. This will help cut the workload
in half. The firm was happy to hire a second cleaner."
"None
the less, I am grateful," Katie reaffirmed. Her Aunt Penny took a set of
keys from her pocket. They stood in front of a door marked 'Cleaner'. This was
Katie's first paid job. She figured she would be good at cleaning since she had
done it for eight years looking after her grandfather and his house.
With
the small cleaning cart loaded, Katie hitched the Dyson vacuum cleaner onto her
back. Katie frowned in annoyance as she noticed the straps pulled her already
body-hugging top tighter across her breasts. She gave a sigh and followed her
aunt into the service elevator. The doors closed behind them and the elevator rose
up to the fifth floor.
"If
you want to start vacuuming here, I'll head up to the sixth floor and clean the
bathrooms. Most power points are behind the potted plants."
Katie
nodded, stepping off the elevator. "Are you going to be okay?" her
aunt asked, looking directly into her eyes. Katie raised her chin and smiled.
"Yes,
thank you Aunt Penny." Reassured, her aunt hit the elevator button; the
doors slid shut with a soft whoosh. Katie turned to survey the long corridor.
There was a small reception area, and further down on either side of the
corridor were several double doors. The carpet was deep blue with red
fleur-de-lis patterns. Katie unwound the vacuum cord then found the nearest
potted plant. Sure enough there was a power point behind it. She plugged it in,
switched it on, and set to work.
