“Payment is in advance. It’s non-negotiable. And… you’ll have to be careful because it will probably hurt me. I will put a pillow underneath. And… some towels. And there will be no oral sex of any type, or anal penetration. No kisses either. The least possible amount of touching. Please be as efficient as possible. Oh, and yes… Condoms (…)”

These are the conditions of the contract that fifteen-year-old Marysia gives to Jan, an aged high-school teacher. They both meet at a hotel where Marysia is going to sell her virginity, and she has very meticulously organized everything. She decides to change her mind, but a few days later, meets again with Jan to fulfill the contract.
