This is the last post in a four post series
It was at this point, while digging small trenches for the sprinkler system in the garden, MiNarc told me she dated a 40 year old doctor when she was 23. Suddenly I was very conscious of my skimpy outfit and my kneeling position (staining the gazebo's floor). She kept saying it would be like her and me getting together. It unsettled me for some reason. Trying to keep my cool, I subtly looked where MiNarc was standing, trying to gauge if she could even see anything. She had stopped working and had moved directly behind me. Suddenly desiring a less vulnerable and revealing position, I started staining a space by the door, subtly scooting around to face MiNarc. As I told her that was weird, and wondered what was wrong with a 40 year old to have to pursue a 20-something.
And the power to diminish ViKtim:
The target (me):
I also randomly re-stained the higher walls so I could stand up entirely. I said that I thought there must be something wrong with an older person taking advantage like that. MiNarc just kept saying it would be like her and I getting together. I’m not sure if she was just having a deep, intensely emotional conversation (as I said, she’s not open very often) with me, or if she was hitting on me. I definitely shut her down though. I absolutely didn't/don't see her in a sexual way, and would never do anything physical with my boss/mentor.
