321 In the Pool

''No, play it that way, I don't mind...''

Liling objected immediately, shaking her head. Knowing that she might not hear him play again, she wanted to listen to him for the first and the last time; but that was not what was on Liu Wei's mind;

''Sunshine, I'm not going to play it here, I want the first time you hear me play to be special; ''

He said zipping up the guitar bag. Liling wanted to object but she pursed her lips swallowing in her words;

''Okay, I'll wait...''

Her eyes stung because she knew she wasn't going to be there to hear him play.

''Since you wouldn't play me a song, I'll play you one ''

She said as she stood up and walked to the grand piano; sitting in front of it, she tapped on the keys for a moment as though thinking of the song she wanted to play him;

''The city sky's feeling dark tonight

We're back to back with our hands down

Look at me... give me more tonight

Just give me more of your love now

Let's set fire to the lonely night, you're beautiful when you look at me

Let's give love another life,

'Cause you'll be safer in this arms of mine

Just call my name on the edge of the night

And I'll run to you...

Although she was going to leave him to save her father but she wasn't going to leave him forever; she was going to find a way to come back... to come back to him.

Even if it's gonna break me love'

Gonna make my way to you

Anyway it's gonna take me love, I'll run to you

I'll run to you love...

Run ... Run...

...

When she finished singing, Liu Wei gave her a round of applause;

''Wow, very nice! My wife is so pretty when she plays the piano.''

He said with a contended smile;

''You can say that again. ''

She replied with a giggle;

After looking round the house, Liling opted to swim in the pool. Since their stuff weren't back yet, Liling swam with her lingerie.

''Do you remember that time you got me paralyzed? When I tried to save you from under the water? ''

Liu Wei asked as they sat down resting after swimming for a while, their legs inside the water.

Liling thought for a while, and then her eyes widened, a laughter escaping her lips;

''Oh my God, yes! I was already praying my last prayers then, I thought of a million terrible things that you could do to me, for using your private pool and getting you paralyzed in it...''

''Well, I have something to tell you...''

Liu Wei said, a dark shade of pink tinting his cheeks;

''What? ''

He was quiet for a few seconds; as though arranging his words;

''I was never paralyzed; it was just a ploy to get you to be close to me...''
