AA-12 had recently met PA-15 along the corridor, offered to help her with 9A-91 but PA-15 politely refused the offer, and so she went to the prison. Berezovich Kryuger was in the room with Helianthus and OTs-14, she had just been released.

" I hope you won't cause us any more problems, OTs-14. " Kryuger said.

" Don't be afraid of me, Kryuger, you know very well I don't bite. "

" Don't mess with me, OTs-14, you know what you've done ... you risked getting killed. If you're alive it's only thanks to AA-12. Remember that. "

" I know. I promise it will never happen again. "

" Good. " Kryuger and Helianthus left, leaving AA-12 alone with OTs-14.

" That's annoying. " OTs-14 said.

" What? " AA-12 asked, curious.

" Pretending to be a good girl. "

" I know, but humans are so fragile that they don't like dealing with people like us. So ... "She began to lick the lollipop. " How are you? "

OTs-14 came close to AA-12, took her lollipop from her mouth and kissed her.

" You have a good taste, AA. "

" I guess you want some sugar? "

" Will you give it to me? " She asked, smiling.

" Well ... " She took a candy out of her jacket pocket. " I have this, it tastes like strawberry. " She unwrapped the candy and put it in her mouth.

" I want to try it. " OTs-14 said closing his eyes.

AA-12 put her hands on the girl's hips and kissed her, their wet tongues savored that red candy together and the strawberry flavor mixed with their saliva; OTs-14 hugged AA- 12 and pushed her against the wall. The two girls continued kissing until the candy melted completely.

" It's a real shame ... " AA-12 said, panting.

" I would like another candy. "

" Here's to you. "

AA-12 gave a candy to OTs-14, the girl put it in her mouth and kissed AA-12. It tasted like orange. OTs-14's right hand slipped under AA-12's shorts as her left hand touched a breast of the girl, massaging it gently; AA-12 was like unarmed unable to resist that discharge of pleasure that ran through her body, she felt the warm fingers gently caressing her vagina lips, the index finger was about to penetrate. AA-12's reaction was instant: she clung to OTs-14 tightly and tried to hold back the scream.

" You're so sensitive below, I wonder why. Maybe you're still a virgin, am I right? "

AA-12, embarrassed, stepped on OTs-14's foot.

" Ouch! That hurt! "

" So-sorry! But ... it's not really easy ... hearing that ... sounds like some kind of insult ... "

" Does being a virgin make you feel bad? "

" I bet you are not. "

" True. "

" Then you don't know what I'm talking about. "

" Well, personally I don't see anything wrong with that. In fact, I find it exciting that you're still a virgin ... and after tonight you won't be anymore. " She murmured, licking AA-12's earlobe.

" Huh ... so I guess you want to do something else first, am I right? " AA-12 asked walking away from the wall.

" A first date, I really want to do this with you. If you want ... "

" A da-date? "

" What's wrong, AA? Never had one? "

" Er ... "

OTs-14 kissed AA-12.

" Don't worry. Just follow me. "

" Fine. "

AA-12 walked to the exit and then saw the camera attached to the wall. She was silent. The camera was there aimed at the two of them. She widened his eyes. The camera light was on. She remembered when she saw Kryuger with recordings in his hand. AA-12's face turned red like a tomato. The girl exclaimed:

" What the fuck! Again? AAAAAH! "

AA-12 ran to Persica's office leaving OTs-14 speechless and confused. AA-12 noisily opened the door. Persica was sitting at her desk, frightened at the din.

" Hi, doctor, I'm here to check something. "

" 'Kay? What is it about? " Persica was at the computer and was not paying attention to what the agitated AA-12 was doing.

" Um ... Kryuger tasked me with taking the record of the latest Groza prison camera recording. "

" Fine. It's there. "

" There? " AA-12 saw only a panel full of screens and keys, but saw no discs. " There, where exactly? "

" You just have to press the green button and the disc will pop out by itself. "

" Which green button? There are ten of them. "

" The one that corresponds to the camera. "

" Quite right! It was obvious ... yes ... "

AA-12 retrieved the record and put it in her jacket. She opened the door and then Persica asked :

" So you're still a virgin? "

" Fuck. "

" Don't worry, my lips are sealed ... and Berezovich's too. "

" Double fuck. "

" Good luck with OTs-14, I cheer for you. "

" I just ... hate myself right now. "

OTs-14 took AA-12 to her room. AA-12 was slightly discouraged, she would've expected a different location for the first date. OTs-14 took out a bottle of wine, uncorked it, took two glasses and gave one to AA-12, noticing the disappointment on her face she asked:

" You were expecting something else, right? "

" No, it's just… I would have preferred a different place. "

" My room is fine with me. " OTs-14 gave the glass to AA-12, poured the wine and then sat on the bed inviting the girl to sit with her. " I want a private conversation with you, I know you don't like to expose yourself, you would never talk about personal things fearing to be heard. "

" Oh. " AA-12 blushed, OTs-14 had made that choice thinking of her and it moved her.

" I want to know a little more about you. "

The two girls started talking and as their first date slowly faded away AA-12 had the impression that she had done something wrong, that she had been selfish towards OTs-14, she felt like an intruder in OTs life. She had loved another girl and was still thinking of her, probably. In a haze of questions, the fatal doubt of being unfair was wearing down AA-12 from within.

" I'm sorry. " AA-12 said bowing her head.

" For what? "

" I can't help feeling selfish ... I'm sorry ... "

" Why? "

" I ... are you sure you want to be my girlfriend? I mean, you have loved another person until now and I don't want to be the selfish who wants to have you all to herself. I love you but I don't want to treat you like an object. "

" Lucy… she's… still in my heart. " OTs-14 said feeling guilty. " Sorry, I can't forget a person who has been so important in my life, this doesn't mean I don't love you ... but, I can't forget that I loved her too and that's why I need your help to put an end to this. I need you, my love. "

" My help? What do you want me to do? "

" I don't know what happened to Lucy, but I'm sure Kryuger is hiding something terrible from me and I want to know. I need to know. "

" I… " AA-12 was reluctant, she wasn't going to get OTs-14 in trouble again, she wanted to help her but she didn't want to lose her again. " Why do you want to do this? " She asked.

" Because I feel in limbo. I feel in a stagnant situation where nothing is true and nothing is false, where everything I know is in doubt and where no one gives me certainty. I need certainties. I need that certainty. Only in this way can I really go on. It's that as if I were always on a straight road that leads me nowhere, I need to find a curve, a moment of change that can put an end to this situation. "

" I will not rebel against our friends. Without them we're lost. "

" I know. I don't want a rebellion, you misunderstood me, I want Kryuger to tell me the truth. The whole truth. But I don't know how to convince him because I don't even know what's stopping him from being honest with me in the first place. "

"Then ... I will help you but I don't know where to start ... "

Suddenly Kryuger's voice was heard, Team EXPIATIO had been summoned. AA-12 looked at OTs-14, neither knew what was happening, it had never happened that a team of T -Dolls was called that way by superiors, something important must have happened.
