Vivian looked away when her cab came and decided not to think of it any further.
The next day, she woke up to Finnick putting on his tie in front of the mirror, already awake and freshened up.
"You're up early today," she said with a hint of bewilderment. Usually, Finnick would wake up at the same time as her and take her to work in his car.
He walked over to the bedside and sat down. "I need to go to the office early today for some urgent matters. Can you go to work by yourself?"
"Sure. Go ahead," she said.
Finnick smiled and planted a light kiss on her forehead. "Sweet dreams," he said before walking
out of the door.
Vivian managed to get another hour of shut-eye before she got up to go to work.
Much to her surprise, a cab was already waiting for her outside the gates when she exited the neighborhood.
Cabs were a rare sight in the high-end neighborhood, and she could not help but smile at how lucky she was.
She raised an arm to signal to the driver that she wanted to get on. "Subway station, please."
After a while of cruising along the road, Vivian began to notice that something was wrong.
"Sir, this isn't the way to the subway station..." she said, only to receive no reply from the driver.
She gasped. I'm in danger!
"Sir! Let me out! Stop the car!" she screamed, but the driver ignored her completely.
