"Look what I got you," Sonia said, reaching into the bag she'd brought home with her. She pulled out the large dildo she'd bought for Chris, and started rubbing its head against her leg.

Chris brushed it off of herself almost instantly and snapped, "Will you stop? I told you earlier I'm not interested."

"But that was hours ago," Sonia said, once again shocked. The strange tension between them was simply too much to take anymore, and she blurted out, "Are you pregnant?"

"No," Chris furrowed her brow irritably and looked at Sonia. "What, you didn't believe me the first time?"

"Well, if you're not pregnant then what's the matter with you?" Sonia cried.

"Nothing, I'm just fucking tired! What's wrong with you?" Chris screamed back.

Sonia dropped the dildo on the floor and leaned forward, putting her head in her hands. She sat back up and looked over at Chris. Placing a hand on Chris's right shoulder gently, she said, "I'm sorry, baby. Really, I am. I've just been worried about you all day. You're not acting normal."

Chris forced a weak smile and halfheartedly said, "I'm fine."

"All right," Sonia returned the smile. "I'm glad to hear it. Come here." She tried to position and pull Chris toward her, so she would be leaning against her. Chris pulled away, rather violently.

"I told you, I don't want to fuck, I don't want to do anything! Just leave me alone!" she snapped angrily.

Sonia had had enough. "I'm not trying to fuck you, I just wanted to cuddle. Seriously, why are you being such a bitch?"

Chris's jaw dropped open as she sharply turned her head to glare at Sonia. "Fuck you," she spit, and got up from the couch, storming off to her room.

Sonia heard the door to Chris's bedroom slam behind her. She shook her head in disbelief. Chris had never spoken or acted like this before, and it had made Sonia feel sick to her stomach. She couldn't help but glance at the dildo on the floor, and immediately thought of Annie. "Fuck this," she said to herself, pulling her phone from her pocket.

She had been worrying about and thinking of Chris all day, only to be treated like garbage when she came home. Worst of all, she hadn't had sex since last night, almost a day ago. It might not have been that long in real time, but to Sonia and most of the women in Valantsa, a society so keenly fixated on sex, that was considered a fairly long time to go without it. She couldn't hold back any longer.

Using the sex application on her cell phone, Sonia looked up Annie and requested an appointment. This was how prostitution worked in Valantsa. Citizens could request an appointment with a prostitute at any time, but prostitutes could also deny these requests if they wanted. However, denying a request meant denying a paycheck, so it was rare for requests to be declined. Upon a request being accepted, the prostitute and client would typically meet at the brothel, which was located behind the hospital. Sonia tapped her hands anxiously against her legs, waiting for Annie to respond to her request or even for Chris to emerge from her room to make amends.

It only took a minute before Sonia's phone beeped and vibrated on the couch next to her. She picked up her phone to see that her request had been approved, along with a message from Annie: "Don't forget, I'll give you a discount if you bring your partner. See you soon."

Sonia immediately got goosebumps and felt a chill of excitement run through her whole body. She got to her feet, but hesitated momentarily before leaving to go see Annie. She turned to look down the hallway at Chris's bedroom door, almost as if Sonia was giving Chris one last chance to stop her before she cheated on her. It dawned on her that that was exactly what she was about to do, and she almost stopped herself. But her primal desire for sex was just too strong, and as far as she was concerned in that moment, her and Chris were no longer truly partners anyway. She wanted relief and pleasure more desperately than anything else, and so she felt she had no choice but to go with the best option available to her. She left Chris behind as she stepped out of her house, and headed to the brothel. She smiled and shivered, eager for the opportunity to try something different.
