Andrea's Beginnings

Candy Heels
Part 9
"It couldn't possibly be. My mother could never wear a heel like that", she thought to herself. "I wonder what she is doing back there."
This was very confusing to Andrea but it did not matter. She could not believe that her new boss had bought these fabulous pumps for her. She walked to the full-length mirror to admire them. She realized that a 5 ½" heel in her size 6 was really high. Not only were her arches steep, they almost looked like they were slightly passed vertical and she thought how nice that looked. It was also really nice how high they felt even though they were only ½" higher than the pumps she had been wearing.
As she admired how she looked she began to daydream about her new life. She looked at her hair and loved how the full curls framed her face. Her blue eyes with the makeup and eyeliner were so bright under her blonde bangs. The high collared blouse with the scarf looked so sexy and it was tight on her breasts. The tight straight skirt was so sexy with the way her special panties shaped her bottom. Thank God these panties covered her excitement. But she thought to herself, "I have fabulous legs like Sarah. They are so shapely and I am good at walking in these heels. I don't ever plan to go back."
Her thoughts continued, "I am only 13 and I easily look older. But what happens as I get older. It would be horrible if I were to grow anymore. Please God, I want to stay tiny like I am now. Oh well, I cannot think of that now. I am so happy today."
"Excuse me Miss, can you help me?"
Andrea was jolted from her daydreaming by a lady customer waiting behind her.
"I am so sorry. How may I help you?"
"I will take this blouse. Would you please ring it in for me?"
"I would be happy to."
They walked to the cash register and Andrea took the lady's card. She was not unattractive but she wore very little makeup and she had done nothing to her hair. She was a brunette of about 25 and wore a plain blue dress and flat black pumps. They had no heel whatsoever.
As Andrea rang in the sale and waited for the lady's credit card sales slip to print, the lady said,
"Are you required to wear heels like that to work here?"
"Actually no, I don't wear low heels at all."
"I guess you have not heard about the damage that heels like that can do to your back and to your feet, have you."
This remark was almost offered as a scolding or even an insult and it hurt Andrea a little. Why would she want to say anything unkind?
"I have been wearing high heels since I was 13 and I find them to be very comfortable."
Andrea was proud of herself for not backing down and she almost straightened her shoulders somewhat with her reply.
The lady's response was little more than a "humph" and she signed her slip and left with her purchase. Andrea was a little shocked and a little hurt. This lady was quite pretty – at least she would be if she took a few minutes to make herself look nice. Mostly Andrea thought, here am I doing my best to be a woman and this one doesn't care how fortunate that she is to be a woman.
It was approaching 11:00am and Bill was nowhere to be seen and the store was getting quite busy. Many ladies were browsing the store and a few had their husbands with them. All of the customers were very nice to her and she was really enjoying being helpful to them. After showing one lady to the changing rooms her husband said,
"You are so lovely. I do not believe I have seen you before here have I?"
"No sir. I just started today working for Mr. Jay."
"Well, I hope you decide to stay with him. You are a lovely addition to the store. Oh and if you do not mind me saying so, I really like your high heels."
Andrea had no idea what to say so she just smiled and said "Thank you" and she returned to the main area of the store to help other customers.
It seemed to her that she had to few hands to assist all of the customers and she was beginning to tire somewhat. What bothered her mostly were some feelings in her feet and legs that she had not previously experienced. It felt like her arches were being crushed down and forward and her legs had some cramps in the back. It was not pleasant and she was frightened because she felt that she might be failing in her most important need. She quickly excused herself behind the cash counter and sought out her soda can. It seemed like no one was looking so she quickly kicked her high heels off and rolled her feet back and forth along the cool metal of the can. It felt good and when she stepped back into her high heels, she felt refreshed and returned to work. She prayed that no one noticed her remove her high heeled shoes – to her that seemed like a failure of sorts and that was not a feeling that she liked.
As noon approached along with the return of those crushed arch feelings Andrea heard the sound of stiletto heels in the Mall. She turned to see Sarah entering the store with Bill. They were smiling and chatting. Sarah looked so great as always. She had done her hair in a ponytail and as always her makeup was beautiful. She wore a casual soft pink t-shirt and a wine colored mini skirt. Clearly she had worn no nylons and on her feet were the cutest soft pink sling-back sandals. They had a narrow strap across her toes and the tiniest little sling that went around the back of her foot. Her toenails were perfect and were painted the same color as her wine skirt. The heels of her sandals were high pink stilettos and Andrea could clearly see that they were at least 5½" high like her own pumps. She looked so wonderful.
Sarah greeted her with a lovely hug and said,
"Hi Sis, how's work? I love your new high heels!! Where did you get them?"
"Actually they were a present from Bill. He bought them for me."
"You are so spoiled." And she laughed.
Bill blushed a little and just added,
"Not really. That was just a small gift to express my thanks to a great new employee."
Sarah just laughed and said,
"No she is spoiled!! Now let me try them on."
Sarah raised each foot in turn and by slipping the sling down each of her high heels fell on the carpet. Andrea thought to herself how pretty that looked and stepped out of her high heels which of course being so high immediately fell over. Sarah bent and stood them side-by-side and then stepped her bare feet into them with such ease that even Andrea was impressed. Andrea also noticed that Bill was clearly enjoying this episode but she said nothing. Sarah almost squealed with glee,
"They're absolutely delicious. I just love them so you must let me borrow them sometimes."
She walked to the mirror and was pirouetting enjoying the look of them,
"Sis I do not know how you work in these extra high heels though. When I am at school I cannot wear heels this high all day."
Andrea feeling quite frumpy standing in her stocking feet admitted,
"Well I was going to change back into my 5" heels a little later."
They all turned when they heard another pair of high heels approaching. It was Jennifer and she was still wearing the pumps she had borrowed from the store.
"Hi everyone. I have had such a good time. This is a perfect day."
They all greeted Jennifer and Bill offered,
"Why don't you girls go to lunch and I'll watch the store for a couple of hours. I won't expect you back until 2ish."
Sarah said,
"That is a great idea!"
She slipped off Andrea's high heeled pumps and handed them to her. Andrea sat and crossed her legs – she slipped each one back on in turn by holding them by their narrow heels. Sarah padded barefoot to her discarded sandals and stepped into them so easily. She raised each foot behind her with amazing balance to raise each sling-back into place.
Jennifer moaned a little,
"Gee I wish my heels were really high like yours. I think I could manage them because these heels are so comfortable."
Before Andrea or Sarah could respond, Bill offered,
"Well Jennifer, if you think you might enjoy a higher heel I may be able to help you. Size 8 right?"
"Well actually size 7 ½ but these are size 8 and they do not slip to badly."
"Let me see what I can find."
As the women waited Sarah said,
"Jennifer it seems as if you're as heel nutty as Andrea is. She started borrowing my high heels when she was 13 and started going everywhere in them."
Andrea laughed at the irony and Jennifer giggled and said,
"I just love high heels. I don't know what it is but I just feel so much different and so special when I have them on. When I went walking in these, even though they are not that high I felt so confident and so good."
Both the sisters nodded and said that they understood and agreed with how she felt.
Bill returned carrying a pair of very high black patent pumps. The toes were very pointed and the thin stiletto heels were at least 5 ½" high.
Jennifer squealed,
"Oh my God, they're gorgeous. I pray that they fit me."
Jennifer sat and removed the 4" pumps that she had been wearing. She brushed some dust from the new pumps that Bill handed her and she slipped each of them onto her bare feet and she stood.
"Oh my these heels are high!!"
Sarah said,
"Why don't you try walking – you can see how they look in the mirror over there."
She did amazingly well, Andrea thought. She certainly wasn't as steady in heels that high as was Sarah and she hoped that she herself was a little better.
Bill said,
"They look very nice on you Jennifer, if you like them you may keep them."
Jennifer squealed again,
"Oh I love you Mr. Jay, thank you so much. I will cherish them."
And she almost stumbled trying to run over and give him a sweet hug and a kiss.
"Well you girls run off to lunch and I will see you about 2ish – would that be long enough for you Andrea?"
"If you like I can be back much sooner Mr. Jay."
"No not at all. You girls enjoy a nice lunch and I will see you later."
They all walked out together with Andrea and Sarah on each side of Jennifer. Bill thought to himself if they could all walk as well in extra tall heels as well as Andrea could and he made a mental note to tell her that later. Little did he know what that would mean to a young man?
