“But what about the budget? Seychelles sounds expensive,” said Mark.
“Think of it as an investment in our love story. Plus, we can skip fancy dinners for a while,” Lisa said with a mischievous grin.
Mark raised an eyebrow, “Hmm, I don’t know.” He said.
“Come on, picture us snorkeling in those crystal-clear waters. It’s like finding Nemo in real life!” Lisa teased him.
“It does sound amazing, but…” Mark start to cave.
“And the local food! Fresh seafood, tropical fruits, it’s simply a foodie’s paradise!” Lisa persuaded him.
