Unexpected Second Chance at Love

The sky grew darker, painting blue strokes at a time until it turns into a deeper shades of the night. The surrounding fields that traps Imperial in place fade into the night allowing the tiny stars to appear.

Behind a small hill, faint lights can be seen in the distance. A white structure house with dark tile roofing can gradually be made out. Inside the metal gate upon entrance, one can see a white Aston Martin Vanquish pulls up into the drive way.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Yue Ling felt the car stop and her eyes slowly flutter open. In a languid motion, she gently rub her eyes before looking out the window.

"Tian, why are we here?"

Next to her in the driver seat, Lu Tian did not show a change in his expression. Looking at his wife, he felt regretful knowing how tired she must be after a long day, but he cannot turn back now. He sigh inside and turn the engine off.

"I want to show you something before going home."

Finishing his last word, he didn’t wait for a response and steps out of the driver door. He walks around to the passenger side to help his wife out of the car.

Yue Ling did not think much and step out of the car with Lu Tian’s help. He probably has business to attend to here, so she won’t question him.

As she steps out, she looks at the big white structure in front of her and she sigh at it’s magical beauty. She has to admit, when she saw it the other day when the sun was still out, it was already beautiful, but seeing it now in the dark with the moon and stars above... It was even more stunning.

The dark sky at this moment painted a perfect background. It really brings out the magical features of the house like a castle in a storybook.

Suddenly, she feels Lu Tian’s hand wrap around her as it brings warmth to her palms.

"Ready?"

She looks at him and nod her head.

As they start walking away from the car, she realizes they were not heading towards the front door of the house... Instead, Lu Tian was bringing her to the side of the house.

"Uh....."

Yue Ling’s eyes blink in confusion and she looks at Lu Tian.

"Why are we walking this way?"

She thought of something as she spoke her words. She glance at Lu Tian before a quiet gasp escape her lip and she quickly cover her mouth.

"Tian, are you afraid your wife might see you sneak your mistress inside?"

"...."

Hearing her question, Lu Tian did not know whether to laugh or cry. He glance at her from the corner of his eyes and gently pinch her nose. He didn’t say a word, but continue towards the side of the house.

Yue Ling pout her lip like a little girl who had been wronged. She rub her nose and mumble to herself.

However, as they near the side of the house, Yue Ling’s eyes begin to adjust to the darkness despite the faint lights from the outdoor lighting. From the distance, she could make out the outline of a building that looks connected to the house.

She frown at it and thought to herself.

The last time when they were here, this building was not here. So how.....

Seeing her reaction, Lu Tian held in the urge to laugh at his wife. He pretends to not have seen it and guides her to a double door.

"This is one of the things I want to show you, but....."

He pause in the middle of his words and takes a step in front of Yue Ling. A smile cross his face and he lean closer to her.

"You have to keep your eyes close."

"..."

Yue Ling’s eyelids turn heavy hearing Lu Tian’s sudden words. She looks at him and wanted to say something, but when she saw the happy, yet serious look on his face, she could only clear her throat.

"Fine, I’ll keep my eyes close, but no tricks."

Hearing her words, Lu Tian’s smile disappear and it was his turn to have heavy eyelids.

Did his wife actually think he would pull some kind of trick on her? Does he look like a child to her?

Lightly shaking his head, he turn to the double door. At the side, he opens a code box and punch in the number.

*beep*

The double door unlocks and Lu Tian push the doors open.

From behind, Yue Ling poke her head out from Lu Tian’s side and tries to peek inside the building.

To her surprise, the inside was even darker than outside. She thought that from the time she walked from the car to here, her eyes had already adjusted to the darkness of the night... However, she couldn’t even make out anything inside at all.

Seeing how dark it was, she couldn’t help but take a big gulp. Her eyes slowly shift to Lu Tian’s back and she gulp again.

’Well.... here goes nothing...’

Lu Tian turn his head to the side and when he saw her, he smile at the expression his wife has on. She looked like a little girl who was about to face her fears going inside a haunted house.

"It won’t be a surprise if you are trying to see what is inside."

"......"

Hearing him, Yue Ling quickly straighten herself. She cross her arms over her chest and tilt her chin upward.

"I wasn’t trying to see what is inside. I just wanted to help you check if it’s dark enough."

When she finish her words, she didn’t wait for Lu Tian to say anything and quickly closes her eyes.

"See, my eyes are close. How can I see?"

"...."

Lu Tian stare at his wife and he could only sigh inside.

Shaking her words off of his mind, he walks behind his wife and place his hands on her shoulder. In a slow pace, he guides her inside the dark building as the darkness inside engulf them.

Inside the building, Yue Ling kept her words. Her eyes remain shut and she allows Lu Tian to guide her in the unknown direction they were heading.

If it had been anyone else, she would of opened her eyes the moment she stepped foot inside. However, it was different with Lu Tian. He always made her feel safe and her heart tells her that he would never hurt her. Not even in the tiniest way possible.

As she thought of this, her steps come to a stop follow by Lu Tian’s. With her eyes close and her ears being her only sense, she didn’t hear anything. Except, the moment she thought that, she felt Lu Tian’s hands on her should move away then his footsteps like he is walking away.

The space between her brows creases and she slightly tilt her head. She tries to follow the sound of his footsteps, but it didn’t take long before she couldn’t hear them anymore and silence returned.

What is Lu Tian planning? Why is he leaving her alone here? Is he.....

"You can open your eyes now."

Lu Tian’s words were calm allowing all thoughts in Yue Ling’s mind to vanish. She slowly open her eyes, but to her surprise, everything was still dark. As a matter of fact it was darker than before.

"Tian?"

She looks around while trying to adjust her eyes. She turns her head in every direction trying to see where Lu Tian is, however, because of the darkness, it was harder for her to make out anything.

She frown and just when she planned to take a step forward, the lights suddenly turn on. Brightness lit up the darkness of the building and she froze in place.

"I said I would build you a bigger one."

At the entrance where the double door was, Lu Tian stood a few feet away. He slowly walks toward his wife with a satisfy expression.

"Do you like it?"

Paying no attention to Lu Tian’s question, Yue Ling stare at what is in front of her. Her head turn to look at every corner of the building and she felt happiness inside her.

Stopping in front of her, Lu Tian pout his lip seeing the happy expression on his wife. She looked as if she had fallen in love all over again. However, when he looks at what his wife is looking at, he couldn’t help but admit inside, he did a good job.

Yue Ling looks at Lu Tian and smiles a smile that reach her eyes. Her right hand touch her heart and she sigh.

"It’s perfect-!!"

She takes two steps forward and sigh again.

This unknown building that Lu Tian had brought her to is none other than the garage they saw last time. Except, this time it is bigger.

A lot bigger than any garage she has ever laid eyes on.

From the outside, one would think of this as a one story garage, however, seeing the inside, each side of the walls is custom with multiple car lifts allowing another car to be park on top.

Just one look and this new garage Lu Tian renovated could fit at least a total of 100 cars!

Yue Ling stare at the spacious space in front of her and she sigh another sigh. It is only a matter of time until her beauties get here and she could already see them parked perfectly in a line for her in this heaven like garage.

Her sighs continue and Lu Tian lightly chuckle without knowing what is on his wife’s mind. He is actually quite satisfy with the surprises he planned for her.

The first surprise was Balance and now, this new garage is the second surprise.

Thinking of his third surprise, he gaze at her with loving eyes and reach for her hand. He interlock their fingers and kiss the back of her hand.

"Come, I have another thing I want to show you."
