No matter how much they dragged their feet and conversed with each other, in the end, they still had to arrive at their destination which was the large crowd that had formed around the head of the Lecroy family.

"Let's just wait for the crowd to clear," they both spoke at exactly the same time then looked at each other in surprise and both started laughing lightly, while using their hands to shield their mouths from bursting openly with laughter.
It was obvious that they really weren't interested in meeting the celebrant and were constantly looking for ways to escape from doing it, or at the very least, to delay it.
