My new friend at work turns out to be more than she seems.

My husband and I had just moved to a new city. I was 36, and he was 40. 2 years earlier, he had gotten a vasectomy so we wouldn't have to worry about any kind of birth control. I had gotten a job at a great manufacturing company, in the accounting department. One of my coworkers was 40, and almost immediately became extremely helpful and friendly. Over the first few months, I thought we had become very good friends. I did find it odd that she never wanted to meet my family, and always seemed to disappear if my husband came in to my work.
