This will be a short one with a long intro. There is a demarcation mark for the sex part.
It happened 4 years ago. I used to be a blogger (I retired from that, going for a real job now), and was particularly involved in the local politics. So much so that when a newly formed party proposed a young team of people to lead the local township, I was game – I didn’t need to be paid, I felt it was my personal privilege to help bring a new, young, very dynamic team to the City.
It’s not a big town, but it’s one of the most important in my country, mostly due to tourism. So I kind of knew everyone from this young team – I could’ve been one of them, but I refused to go into politics. But there’s always a lot of people to know, and I wasn’t aware that this superb redhead, a business analyst and an enthusiastic voluntary in community projects, was part of the team. Unfortunately, right when the campaign started I was indisposed – a knee injury kept me off for three weeks, and I was limping hard by the time elections happened.
