Summary: Lester hides behind an armour of suits and sarcasm.
A sharp suit, a well honed sense of sarcasm, and an air of complete respectability; it's a look that's taken Lester years to perfect.
Twenty years after joining the civil service he's got it all. An important job, a successful wife, three lovely children, a house in the country and a flat in the city. It's everything he's sure he should want.
But lately suppressed desires, the longing for a male body against his own have become nearly overwhelming. It can never be though; he can't, won't hurt his family.
He's trapped.
Covering his face with his hands, Lester weeps.
