Pam is doing some thinking.
There's an unbearable weight on her finger.
It's drabble day. Three at a time, three sides to each story. Staring with the one nearest and dearest to me. Pure wishful thinking - no spoilers to be seen.
Is it a homage, is it a tribute or is it just that I am not very good at thinking up original plots? Whatever, this story is 'inspired' by Jane Austen's Persuasion and is meant to have a similar mix of melancholy and hope. Set after the rumoured merger of the branches (spoilers up to Grief Counselling), Michael organises a bonding exercise adventure and Pam has to deal with seeing Jim again - and with his attentions to Karen. But if you've read Persuasion, you might guess that someone is heading for a fall ...
Jim's been away. Now he's back. Pam realizes what she's missed. No spoilers - just speculation and much wishful thinking.
I added Karen as a character in the story - since she's mentioned.
Someone else's take on the Jim/Pam situation.

Pam didn't marry Roy but for a while there we weren't quite sure.
