Little Secrets in Retail

Working at the same retail store for years has given me lots of time to think about my interests. Lately, I've found myself drawn to little play with a close coworker, someone I’ve known since we both started here just over a year ago. It's weird because we're both well past our twenties but there’s something comforting and playful about it. We’ve had a couple of secret meetings after work where he takes care of me like I’m his baby girl, telling me off for silly things and being all bossy with the toys. I feel so safe with him, and it's been a fun way to let loose and be someone else when we're not at work. It’s still early days but it feels right.
