"Excellent, so we'll start with…" Helena lost her train of thought looking at Myka.
"Truth!" she said after a few moments.
Myka didn't know if she should be relieved or if she should continue to worry about this game. She sat and waited for Helena's question.
"What made you become an Agent?"- Myka almost laughed when she heard the question. She was expecting something more intimate.
"Uh… I was a girl scout for three years, and I enjoyed being a girl scout, learning to do thing that help you to survive. I also like the feeling I got after finishing and objective or an order. That led me to the Secret Service, where I felt like part of them." – Myka said as she remembered her time as a girl scout and how proud her father was after every one of her victories. He didn't expect his daughter to want to do that.
Helena listened intently, while watching Myka and paying attention to the different emotions she saw there, trying to recognize the ones she already knew.
"Your turn to ask"- Helena was curious to know what Myka would ask her throughout the game.
"Hmm… What made you start to write?"- Helena felt a bit of disappointment in relation to the expectation.
"The same way you felt a tie to be part of the Secret Service, I felt that I was part of words. The power words have is incredible; they manage to last such a long time in history. We have documents that tell us what happened fifty years ago just the same as something that happened three-hundred years ago. I felt happy when I was writing; it was where I could give my feelings space, that's how imagination is."- Helena explained while she gestured lightly with her hands.
A few questions later, Helena was going to risk breaking into Myka's emotional barriers, with a question that might change everything. She didn't want to risk a dare; she just wanted honest answers from Myka without having to tiptoe around it. She worried about making her friendship with Myka progress without scarring the other woman or losing her forever.
"Do you have feeling for someone that works in the warehouse?"- Myka's heart speed up, and she started to worry about how to answer.
Honestly, I have to answer honestly. But I can't answer that question.
For Myka it seemed like a year went by while she thought, while it had really been about two minutes. Helena was starting to regret the question, and was about to open her mouth to tell Myka that she didn't have to answer, but Myka was faster.
"It could be, yes."-Myka's heart started to beat even faster with her answer. Helena stopped thinking about saying anything, and started thinking about what Myka had said.
Wait, Myka has a crush? That isn't the Myka I know. I wasn't expecting that answer.
As soon as Helena thought that she remembered where she was, and returned to normal, only to notice Myka was looking at her with scrunched eyebrows.
"Uh…sorry, I got distracted in my head."- She gave a smile to try and calm Myka down, whose heart was accelerating. In the environment, the air was starting to get slightly heavy, as if in extremely slow movements.
Myka got up from her chair and started gathering her things and gave one last look at Helena before leaving. Helena kept looking at Myka, she wondered if she should have asked the question. She stood quickly, in time to grab Myka's wrist stopping her just a few centimeters from the door. Myka was startled by Helena's touch and she turned around quickly to see Helena was wearing a concerned look. They were standing very close to each other, and it was causing a lot of tension.
"I'm so sorry; it wasn't my intension to expose your emotional side. I shouldn't have asked you that."- Myka could tell that Helena was really feeling bad about it. She didn't think that Helena cared that much about her, or at least not to the point of asking for forgiveness for a simple question.
Neither woman could tell what happened exactly in the next minute. Myka had barely registered that she closed her eyes, and in an instant she felt a slight pressure on her lips, while Helena was feeling the pleasures of kissing someone after so long. It was Helena that deepened the kiss to make sure it was real making them crash into each other. Myka quickly opened her eyes; she was startled by Helena's brown eyes. Instantly separating from Helena, she brought her hands to her mouth then turned abruptly opening the door and running out leaving a very confused Helena behind.
Myka didn't stop running until she was outside of the Warehouse. She hadn't even realized she was outside until she felt the dry breeze on her face. Helena was frozen in same place looking at the empty space that a minute ago was Myka. They were both trying to understand what had happened a few second before. Helena gaze one last look at the empty stop then looked around with sadness in her eyes, trying to understand her soul. Myka decided to lean on the outside wall of the warehouse and slide down until she hit the floor.

Pete had finished his work a few minutes ago and was looking for Myka, so they could talk, like they always did after a hard day. He started to worry when it appeared that Myka wasn't in the Warehouse, the memories of the day that Myka left the Warehouse returned to his mind frequently. Fearing the worst, he ran outside, expecting to find her car there. Once outside, he saw that the car was still there, but there was no sign of her. He turned to go back inside and saw Myka sitting on the ground, with her back leaning against the wall, looking at the landscape.
"Are you okay?"- Pete said as he approached Myka cautiously, who barely nodded in response. Pete started to get more worried, he had never seen her like this.
"You know I'm here to listen, right?"-Pete sat in front of Myka, who looked at him and nodded.
"I just needed some fresh air. Don't worry about it, it's nothing serious."-Myka said when she saw Pete, who was moving his head like he understood her.
"Anything, you can tell me, right."-Myka nodded, turning again to look at the scenery.
Meanwhile, Helena was still sitting on the chair, looking lost and with her mind wondering, like if she was barely reflecting over something, yet she was reflecting over her actions.
I have to do something. I can't pretend that nothing happened. I can't let this ruin our friendship.
With that thought, she stood, and she headed to the exit of the warehouse, wanting some time for herself. While she was walking, she saw Myka and Pete trying to have a conversation, and felt her soul sadden. She got in the car, starting the car while she saw Myka one last time, with a sad gaze; meanwhile Myka just watched the car disappear into the horizon.
