Chapter Two: Adhere
In an unknown place and time.
Shel woke up in an apartment bed. She looked around and didn't recognize anything. A man in a lab coat entered the room.
"Hello there, miss.. Shel. You can call me Sir Thomas, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, where am I?"
"You'll find out soon enough. Come, follow me."
The two walked into the dark hallways, until they are engulfed by the darkness
Present time.
Alex runs and opens the first door he sees. They enter a fancy restaurant. In his mind, after a few seconds, he starts to think.
"Huh, I thought we were in an apartment? Resorts? Restaurants?"
Conveniently, there's make-up, wigs, a suit and a dress left on display. Alex quickly takes them all and runs into the men's bathroom.
"Quick, put these on" Alex says to Shel.
Without hesitation, Shel puts on the dress and make-up. Alex hesitantly quickly looks at her while she undresses. Shel displayed slight embarrassment before returning to her default neutral face. After Alex puts on the suit, he turns to Shel.
"How do I look?" He asks.
"Cute, I mean sufficient." Shel replied.
She holds her hands tightly for a moment and looks away.
"Uhh, thanks. You look perfect by the way, f-for an android."
Alex peeks his head outside the bathroom and looks around the restaurant.
It's empty, then he noticed a sign that says:
"All you can eat, completely free today, no need for reservations"
