Second Lead Syndrome: A Second Chance Chapter 224 - Egg Crepes

Kris and Lena parted their mouths from each other and breathed heavily. After they breathing settled down, Lena helped Kris washed up before they both head out of the shower.

She always made sure to scrub his body nicely and gently. Some part of him thinks that his scar was open wounds and if she washed them too hard, it would cause pain.

Kris told her before that they don't hurt but she continued to be gentle. He did not mind her soft touch, after all, she looked extra cute when she cares so much about him.

The sun was going to be up in an hour or so. Today, Kris prepared something more comfortable for Lena to wear. Lena wore nice short black pants and a casual grey shirt. She put on some socks and slipped on some sneakers.

When she was done getting dressed, she looked up at Kris who was finishing up putting on his shirt. Kris spotted at her staring and smiled at her.

"I am hungry." Lena complained.

"Did I not satisfied you before?" Kris joked.

"I need real food...."

"I'll feed you something." Kris held out his hand and Lena happily took it.

He knew that the kitchen up here was not stocked with food so he took them back down to the underground base. The cooks were probably still asleep but he can probably find something for them to eat for a bit.

They rode the elevator down until they were back deep down in the base. Lena and Kris walked to the kitchen where Kris had shown her before.

Kris walked over the huge fridge and opened it. He scowled at what was inside it.

"What? It's empty?" Lena questioned.

She walked over and open the refrigerator door wider to see why he had such a reaction. To her surprise, the refrigerator was not empty but full. It was completely full of proteins and lots of meat.

"There is nothing in here that I know how to cook." Kris responded.

"I can make something for us."

"But you are the guest... I should cook."

Lena laughed. Kris was trying so hard to be a good man for her. "Then we can make something easy."

Lena did no go for the big juicy meat but instead took out the carton of eggs. She placed it on the table and started opening some drawers to look for more recipes.

"What are you trying to make?"

"Some egg crepes."

Kris walked over a drawer that Lena had not looked at and opened it. He helped Lena take out the materials. He knew that it was an easy recipe so he would be able to help her and learn at the same time.

Lena took the lead and they both cooked together. Kris wanted to master it so they stayed in the kitchen longer than they originally planned and made lots of egg crepes for the men that were starting to wake up.

Lena ate while she watched Kris flipped the crepes. She giggled each time a man entered the kitchen and sees their boss struggling. Lena kindly invited them in and they were quick to leave after getting a plate of food.

After Kris felt like he was pro, he finally stopped and enjoy a nice breakfast with Lena. When they were done, Kris took Lena to the where they would at today.

They walked to a different area than yesterday until they reached a big door. Kris opened the door and they both entered.

"This is an adult's playground?!" Lena quickly gasped at the sight.

"Adult? Most of us already completed this as a child."

"Most... yeah... the abnormal most of everyone."

Lena took a few more steps forward to get a better glance at the enormous obstacle course in the room. It was an indoor one. She could see some bar hops, rope climbing, rock climbing, and more obstacles that she did not know how it worked.

"When I was young, this was something I would do for fun." Kris held onto a big rope and swung over to the other side. The bottom had a large pit of water. "I wanted to share some of the good things that I had... or made me more... happy I guess."

Lena grabbed onto the rope and successfully swung across it. James had been teaching her close combat training and improving her stamina. She had not done anything like this. This would be something good for her.

"I'll conquer this all." Lena gave Kris a peck on the cheek.

She turned to look at the next course and stopped smiling. "You've got to be kidding me."

"Hm? It just looks harder than it is. You just need to grab the stick and swing across with it until it hooks it on to the next one. Think of it like some more difficult monkey bars."

"Wish me good luck!" Lena hopped and grabbed onto the bar. She swung her body back and forth for momentum before jumping off and trying to hook the bar in place for the next jump. Her aim was off for one side and she fell down with a big splash into the water.

Kris looked over the edge to make sure Lena was alright.

"You didn't wish me good luck!" Lena shouted. She held onto the bar and swam back to the latter which was back at the beginning. She noticed that each time she falls, she would have to start all over from the beginning.

She swung across the rope again, holding onto the bar. She placed it back on its first position and tried again. Kris didn't think that Lena was going to keep going but if she wanted to, she was free to do whatever she wanted. He liked her fighting spirit.

Throughout the day, Kris stayed and completed the course with Lena. She fell into the water a few times and had to start over. Kris help gave her tips on how to complete each course and how everything is more than just that a physical course. There are some parts that you can use your brain to complete it.

This was a good time for Lena to improve on her performance and she also grew closer to Kris. This was also a time for Kris to understand Lena.

After Lena completed the course with Kris, she told him to go check on their lunch while she tried the course again with just herself. As Kris left, Lena started back at the course from the beginning. She smiled before grabbing the rope and swinging to the other side.

The last course was shooting at 5 moving targets and hitting the red circle marked on them. The first round, Lena missed 2/5. This time around, she was more focused and was able to hit all of them in one single try.

"Congratulations!" Kris clapped his hand at Lena and walked to her. He gave a kiss on her forehead even though she was sweating a bit from the heavy workout.

"How long were you there for?"

"Awhile. I did not want to bother you."

"You are right... this is kind of fun." Lena replied.

"Good. There are several more courses here and others located at each Area. I can show them all to you someday."

"I would love that!"

"You sure? Instead of fancy dates at the movies, you would rather be doing these stuff with me?"

"Of course. I think this is more of a fun and interactive date than a movie. As long as there is food, then any date with you is good."
