A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 881

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 881

Vivian had not seen a dead person when she was only five years old.

“Be good, little pumpkin. Don’t cry.” Looking at the state Larry was in, Vivian was broken-hearted.

Only Vivian knew how much she had endured during this period of time. Although she was not the person who was directly affected, they were all her loved ones.

She had seen how much pain they were in and did not have it easy either.

Often, a person would be more distressed by watching others in pain.

As she comforted Larry, Vivian stroked his back in hopes that her son would be able to forget this terrible memory. If Larry could not forget that scene, it would become his childhood trauma.

Vivian did not want Larry to have to deal with a childhood that he would always be afraid to remember. She wanted him to grow up well and in peace.

As she consoled Larry, Vivian slowly fell asleep beside her son.

Whatever happened that day was too much for her to handle.

She had been cooking for Finnick when she received the phone call in the middle of it and had to rush over. Like Larry, she had seen the corpses littering the floor.

She had also seen Samuel lying on the ground. Although she was devastated, she could not cry then.

Only when Larry finally fell asleep did she let her tears fall.

As she stroked Larry’s back, Vivian cried and comforted herself at the same time.

As they fell asleep, Finnick was still up on the hill, kneeling in front of Samuel’s grave.

He simply kneeled there motionless.

The next morning, Vivian made Larry some breakfast and noticed that Finnick was not yet home. After waiting a while longer, she went back up the hill with Larry to see Finnick.

As it was still early in the morning, the paths on the hill were tough to walk on. Some plants along the way still had morning dew on them.

The scenery atop the hill was beautiful, but Vivian was in no mood to appreciate it. She was very worried about Finnick.

As they walked up the hill, Vivian was getting nervous the closer they got to the peak.

However, she did not know what she was nervous about either.

All she wanted then was to reach the peak as soon as possible so that she could find out what happened to Finnick and see if he was okay.
