“By the power vested in me by the State of Missouri, I now pronounce you Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Valentine. You may kiss your bride.”

Samuel leaned down and kissed me. Raymond and his wife, Savannah, who were our witnesses clapped.

“Congratulations, Samuel,” Judge Porter said.

“Thank you, Sir,” Samuel replied.

Savannah and Raymond hugged us both and gave their congratulations.

“Welcome to the club,” Ray said to Samuel. “You made a great choice.”

“I did.”

Samuel

“Samuel, why have we been riding so long?”

“We are almost there, be patient.”

The car pulled to a stop at our destination. An opportunity fell into my lap, and I couldn’t pass it up. It provided me with the perfect wedding/baby gift for my wife. I wanted it to be a surprise, so I blindfolded her halfway here and had Brick make some unnecessary turns to throw her off the trail.

“The car stopped. Are we there?” Averie asked.

“Yes, sweetheart, we are here.”

“Can I take this off now?”

“No, I will take it off, and you bet not be peeking.”

“I can’t see anything.”

“Alright, hold tight. Brick is going to help you out then I will come around and meet you. I gotta watch you to make sure you don’t peek.”

“Smart,” she chuckled.

Brick helped Averie out of the car then I got out and rounded the car to take her hand.

“Brick, where are we?” I heard Averie try to whisper not knowing I had already made my way to her.

“Exactly where we are supposed to be,” Brick chuckled.

“Whatever, Brick,” Averie laughed.

“Mr. Valentine,” Jack, the salesman spoke as he approached us.

“Jack, good to see you again. This is my wife, Averie.”

Averie extended her hand.

“I would say nice to meet you, but you know the blindfold and all. Samuel, where are we?”

I led her by the hand to the spot in front of her gift then removed the blindfold.

“This is your wedding/baby gift.”

The look of shock registered on her face then confusion settled in. She bent down. Then looked behind her.

“Are we going on a trip?”
