David's  POV

OK so I'm on my way to Taylor's house. In my mind I think its the right thing to do since I up and left a note for the butler telling him that I will be back in a few days since I will be going on a trip. I didn't say where but I knew he would take care of Sally.

Sally was my cloud on two legs. Many people don't usually see this side of me, but I really love dogs. I got her last year when I was on a business trip in Taiwan. She just rounded up in front of my apartment door.

Her small, sky blue eyes were the shiny darkness found on a beetle's wing. I couldn't resist the thought of leaving her outside so I picked her up and brought her inside. Since that day I never found back her owner who stayed at the hotel.

I looked up into the mirror of my black Hennessey venom. This car has ball bearing turbo chargers engine power and output is adjustable. Under varying conditions, on both road and track this car has an active aero system with adjustable rear wing that will deploy.

I drove from the highway down into the dusty road which had a sign showing Nevada Town Square five miles ahead. I was relieved because I thought I was lost knowing that I didn't exactly know where Taylor lived.

I mean was I travelling 3000 miles across the country just to give her a company incentive that could have been mailed to her.

In my mind I was thinking I should just go back home but then another mind told me to go and see what her reaction will be.

I stopped as I saw a middle aged woman dressed quite casually, strolling down the road and I asked her for directions to Evergreen Estates which was the address Taylor had on her application.

And how did he get this info. Well Taylor's boss was a good friend to his father and he looked up to him.

So when he asked for her information the man tall strapping man was elated to share because somewhat he saw something that none of the two saw in them.

And too he wanted to see where the love fest would go. More so if they got together his company would get more exposure and marketability on more old properties and be a part of the consistent competition among other Real Estate companies.

When I banked the corner I saw the big gate to Evergreen Estates open wide as I drove through. I never thought Taylor would live in such a beautiful place like this. I was actually surprised because she never bragged or even spoke about where she lived.

Not like we had any conversations about that kind of stuff in the past.

"Knock, knock"

I heard at the door. My mom rushed to answer it as I continued helping her with the dishes. I heard the quiet grumbling from the front door but I thought well it was a visitor for my mom, But It wasn't.

Guess who it was.

"Taylor honey you have a visitor" I heard my mom say from the living room.

I rushed to the door to see who it was and to my surprise it was Mr. Archuleta. "Why Sir, how I can help you" I said in a surprised Southern tone.

"Well I thought I could bring you a bonus package from our company. I was trying to get in touch with you but by the time I got to your office Ms. Danielle said you had already left."

I turned and I looked at my mother as I took the nicely covered package from his hand.

"So you came all the way to Nevada City to bring me a package that could have been mailed" but my mom hunched me in my side before I could even finish my sentence.

"Taylor, be modest, this lovely intelligent man took time out his busy schedule to bring you this wonderful package you should very grateful" she said as she smiled looking at him.

He smiled back too and then they both looked at me as to say I must acknowledge it.

"Okay, well thank you Mr. Archuleta have a nice holiday" I said cheerfully as I was about to close the door.

My mom stopped him and just as he walked away 

"Mister Do you have a place to stay while you are in town?" she shouted from the door

"Mom, I shouted under my breath. I'm sure he will be staying a hotel or something that is more convenient to his standard"

But before I knew it the man was already in the house with my mother hooked on his arm.

"Come on Taylor he is your guest" I just shrugged as I closed the door behind them.

I heard her tell him 'any friend of Taylor is a friend of ours so you are welcomed to stay as long as you want'. They both made their way to the kitchen as my mother go him a good cup of hot cocoa from the pot.

"So Mr. Archuleta tell us about yourself and what you do?"

My mom didn't even give him breathing space she just went straight to the point. Since she was so hyped that he was here. What she was implying I didn't know but I was out of their way.

Although I worked in close relation to their company I didn't see why he had to come all the way here to give me some package when he could have just mailed it on behalf of the company.

Never the less I was intending to find out what he was up to.

I stood there at the doorway to the kitchen as I saw him and my mother talk and ramble on and on about his job.

"Mrs. Covington please, call me David and I must say before I continue thank you for allowing me to stay in your home it is very lovely. I can say I wasn't planning such a warm welcome but it is well appreciated." I heard him tell my mom.

My mom is one who loves to do nice things for people even if it means inviting them into her home.

"Well my job involves care for property, buy and use for future business operations. And Taylor here helps us to choose these properties by suggesting areas and property types that are likely to experience price appreciation in the future."

And he continued to tell my mom how great I am at my job and he would love to continue doing business with my company.
