[color=C8C7CB]“Sounds good to me.”[/color] Vivian gave her benefactor a warm smile, trying to not make her eagerness too obvious as she reached for the envelope. Once it was between her fingers, Vivian finally noticed the piece of cardboard inside that made it look artificially thicker. She found it curious why Alexander had bothered with this unnecessary trick at all; she didn’t see much purpose in it. It certainly didn’t seem like he had much need to fake additional wealth.

Vivian kept the envelope wrapped in her palm and returned her gaze to meet Alexander’s. [color=C8C7CB]“I’m glad you’re enjoying the game. I’ll see you next time—just text the number from earlier to arrange a time.”[/color] She noticed Elias calling him over to pay his tab. Vivian gestured at Alexander with a quick raise of the whiskey in her hand, taking a sip after. [color=C8C7CB]“Thanks again for the drinks. It’s much appreciated, even if it’s the middle of the day. I’ll leave you to it—Jimmy can help you with the bill.”[/color]

Tucking the envelope under her elbow, she grabbed her pool cue and sauntered off to the employee’s area. Once there, she swiftly disposed of the redundant piece of cardboard, and enthusiastically flipped through the bills. She was hoping to buy a new guitar stand and try out the fancy French restaurant in town. However, as much as Vivian wanted to spend it on herself, she realised quickly that she never had the chance to give Alissa a housewarming present. The money would be much better spent on a girls’ night at the Pit or Trance with Alissa and bottle service anyway.
