One of the approaches could be as follows:

  1. Have one flow that has the logic for approval and rejection of the request.
  2. Have a second scheduled flow that triggers every day.
    1. You look up all requests which are in the approval state "requested".
    2. You loop through the records and calculate the duration based on the opened_at value
    3. You create if-else blocks. For e.g. if (duration == 4 days){// send notification}else if (duration == 5 days){// send notification}else{ // cancel request}

This can be achieved in the flow via the OOB action and flow logic components or you can have a custom action component with a script.
