A different kind of model 108

"... Well, n-not yet..." Samuel stammered. "I couldn't discuss the contract with him last night, but I'm almost there!"

"What does that mean exactly?" Greta asked. 

"I thought it was too early to talk about it" the feminized guy explained. "That was our first meeting, after all... This could sound strange and suspicious... I needed to test the waters first."

"So, you’re going to go out with him again?" Mia asked.

"Of course!" Samuel exclaimed, maybe a little too fast, making the girls raise their eyebrows. "I mean... I have no choice, right?"

"I see..." Greta said, looking funny at Samuel. "But you still haven't told us what happened last night."

"Umm... It was... okay. He took me to a nice restaurant… we ate… we talked..."

"C'mon, Sammie! That's not how we girls talk about dates! We want details!"

Reluctantly, Samuel then told the girls everything about his experience at the restaurant. He felt especially embarrassed when he mentioned how many times Mr. Abano had said that he was such a beautiful woman.

"Oh, you’re a lucky girl" Mia teased him. "I think he really is into you! But wait a minute... I saw the time you got home last night… It was pretty late. There's no way you two spent all that time in a restaurant. What are you trying to hide, sweetie?"

"Alright! H-he took me to another place after we left the restaurant!"

"Another place? Oh my gosh, is this a euphemism for a motel or something?" 

"What?!!"  Samuel cried out, stridently. "No, of course not! This was a kind of lookout..." He told them what had happened there, too, conveniently omitting how it had ended. 

"Oh my, I'm almost jealous!" Mia giggled, thrilled. "I can't believe he did all this just to please you… so romantic! I think this is safe to assume that he really likes you… like, a lot! Now... when you two were there, alone at the lookout... Didn't he kiss you?" 

"Kiss?! N-no, no kiss!" Samuel lied.  

"Oh really?” Mia asked. “We know men, darling! Do you really want us to believe that he didn’t even try to kiss you after all that? We're trying to help you here, but for this you need to be honest with us."

In another situation, Samuel would have kept denying, but he was feeling so nervous and distressed because of that conversation that he eventually admitted the truth. "Okay... He kissed me... And I... Umm... I kissed him back... but that was only because I had no choice! I mean... He needs to believe that I like him back, right? Then I can persuade him to terminate the contract..." 

The girls looked at him for endless seconds without saying a word, as if they just couldn’t believe what they had just heard. 

"Sammie... I need to ask you something" Mia finally started, slowly. "Are you sure that this is still all about regaining your manhood? Maybe you're starting to like being Samantha..." 

"N-no way! You're completely wrong!" Samuel stated, feeling a shiver as deep down he considered that possibility. "How can you even ask me something like that? This is just an act because of that damn contract!" 

"Fine, fine, you don't need to feel offended. I just needed to make sure” Mia said, not looking completely convinced. “But anyway, if that's the case, it would be good if you could speed things up a bit..." 

"Why that?"

"I talked to Francesca, your girlfriend, yesterday… I was unable to make her change her mind once again. She's coming back to Milan." 

"Oh, no! When?" 

"Three weeks... at tops!"
