Suddenly, she hears the voice of a young woman behind herself, "Oh my god, on your wrist, isn't that a Transform-O-Matic emitter?" She turns around and sees the young woman swimming right next to the floating ring and smiling. Alice is a bit concerned because she didn't expect that anyone would notice she's wearing the emitter. "My smartwatch?" she asks and is unsure of the stranger's intentions. But as she looks up closer, she can tell that the young woman is actually quite attractive. And besides of her wearing a yellow high-cut triangle bikini, the young woman is also wearing an emitter on her left wrist that looks very similar to Alice's. "Yes, that thingy you're wearing on your arm. Isn't it a Transform-O-Matic emitter? It looks just like the new model I saw on the net," the woman asks in an interested and friendly tone. Alice is a bit surprised but she's happy that the woman seems to be interested in her and her emitter and not in her private business. Alice looks at the young woman. "Oh, I don't know all the functions yet. I think it's great that the thing simply shows my pulse and so on. And I can get reminders about my daily routines on it," she replies, smiling back.
"Oh, really? That's so cool," the woman says, swimming closer. "I think I read online that these newer models have all sorts of features that smartwatches have. Besides being emitters of course. So, right now, do you have something on you? Are you a transformed person?" the woman asks, and she doesn't even hesitate to look Alice's swimsuit up and down.
*What's going on? I can hear you talking but I can't hear anyone else?* Jake's voice is a little confused, also because he doesn't know if Alice can answer him directly in this situation. Alice laughs a little, it's hard to explain that she can communicate with the swimsuit that is her lover Jake. "It's a bit strange," she admits. "OK, you recognized the emitter and you have one yourself, I admit it. I'm Alice and this is Jake." She points to her swimsuit. "Do you know what I mean? I don't know if I should talk about this in public," she says, unsure if she's being too open about their transformation.
