Maya's P.O.V

I walk into my office near the end of the week putting my bag down before walking over to Drew's office next door. I knock before walking in. "Hey boss what can I do for you?" He asked looking up at me from his computer. "Hey Drew. I need a big favor from you." I start. He nods for me to continue so I do. "I've decided to take a little vacation. So I'm going to be heading back to New York to spend it with my family. All I need is for you to look after the gallery while I'm gone." I explain and he nods. "Good. You need a break sometimes Maya. You work yourself way too hard. Go and have fun with you family and friends for once. How long will you be gone?" He asked. "I shouldn't be gone any longer then a month. But if you need any help here just call me and I'll be on the next flight back. And while I'm gone I want weekly reports and updates please. I'll have my laptop with me so we can video conferences." I further explain to him and he sighs jokingly. "That's not much of a vacation if your doing work while you're away." He says with a smile across his face. I wave him off with a smile on my face too. "I'll be leaving late tonight. So I'll only be here for about another hour or so. I just want to make sure you have the schedules for everything before I leave." I tell him before walking back into my office.

Once I have everything piled together, I pack up my bag and bring the files over to Drew's office. "Hey, I'm heading out. Here is everything you will need while I'm gone." I say as I place the files on his deck after I place my coat and bag on the chair in front of it. He nods his head leaning back in his chair. "Everything will be fine around here. Go. Have fun. You need this vacation." He tells me and I smile. I'm about to answer him my phone rings. I look back at Drew before pointing to the door. He nods and I walk out waving at him before I I answer the call.

"Hello?" I said into the receiver. "Hey Peaches." Riley says on the other end. I smile at the sound of my best friends voice. "Hey Riles." "When are you leaving?" She asks and I laugh. "My flight is for tonight. I'll let you know when I leave and when I land. I just have too stop at home to get my car before driving up and meet you guys at the cottage." I tell her and she squeals. "I still can't believe you're finally coming home!" She exclaims almost loud enough to make me pull the phone away from my ear. "I know Riles. You'll see me tomorrow evening. I have to go though, I'm home now and I have to pack before heading to the airport." I tell her. We say our goodbyes as I walk into my apartment.

I put my stuff down on my kitchen counter before walking into my bedroom. I open my closet to grab my big suitcase to start packing.

I'm running around my room frantic trying to make sure I'm getting everything I need. Once I have all my clothes packed I go into my bathroom and grab all my toiletries and makeup and hair dryer. I put those in my suitcase before grabbing my backpack and putting my laptop, chargers, my headphones, and a couple snacks. After everything is packed I see how messy my room is so I spend a little time trying to clean it before I get ready to leave.

I look at my clock to see how late it's gotten. I got home around 1:00 and it's already 6:30. I jump into a really quick shower and get changed. My flight is set for midnight. So after my shower I grab a quick bite to eat for dinner before calling for a cab, once it's ordered I grab my bags and heading downstairs.
