Furthermore, a vacation will also help to strengthen their relationship and bring them closer.
Having obtained Benedict's assent, Vivian confirmed it time and again with him before the matter was decided. The plan was basically in place right now. The only thing left was to have Paris take Larry over to Benedict's house in the afternoon.
Of course, they had to keep Paris in the dark about the location being Benedict's house.
After lunch, Vivian gave Larry some last-minute instructions. Then, she packed her luggage with Finnick as they planned to leave that very night.
Actually, she was afraid that her brother would come looking for her after learning of her ulterior
motive.
I should leave as soon as possible. By doing so, I won't be in the city anymore when he realizes what I've done.
As she thought about this plan of hers, she giggled happily before turning to look at Finnick.
"Where are we going?"
Ironically, they had come up with an extensive plan for other people but hadn't planned their own vacation at the end of the day.
"Where do you want to go?" Finnick had always gone along with Vivian, so he didn't mind going wherever she wanted to go.
"Hmm... How about this? We'll take the train and think of a figure each. Then, we subtract the two figures and take the exact number of stops
according to the answer."
Vivian abhorred making choices since she had slight decidophobia.
This is the best way to decide on the destination. Besides, it will help to spice things up too.
"Sure." Finnick nodded with a smile.
As he stared into Vivian's bright eyes, utter bliss flooded him. With that, they started playing that game.
After thinking of a figure, they both blurted it out.
In the end, the answer turned out to be five.
And so, they planned to take the train for five stops and disembark from wherever they ended up.
After making the decision, they waited for Paris to come and pick Larry up.
