ON:
Tasha had found the location where this Amos was staying and wanted to speak with him. After sending for her transport she arrived at the hotel where he was staying. Orders were given not to announce her and to send her the hotel bill. After finding out what room he was in Tasha made her way there and knocked on the door.
Amos was in the room packing up the last of his belongings when he heard a knock on the door. He went to the door wondering who it could be with his phaser behind his back just in case. He opened the door only to see an older women who was unknown to him "Hello, may I help you" Amos inquired.
"You are Cyndi's friend Amos? I'm her mother, you may call me Tasha, may I come in?"
Amos put his phaser on a nearby table and smiled "Most certainly, please come in and make yourself at home....and yes I am Cyndi's friend" he said with a smile and stood back to let Tasha in.
Tasha walked in but not before instructing her guards to remain outside. Seeing the reluctant nods she took a seat on a chair. "My daughter is very precious to me, she told me how you saved her and helped her escape and cared for her. She easily could have been sold again or killed. I'm in your debt. I've taken care of your hotel bill. What are your plans once you leave my planet? Is there anything you need?"
Amos was quite overtaken with humility that this women would go out her way to seek him out herself to thank him for helping the Princess. After a few moments of thought he replied "I plan on starting my own business hauling freight for people and hopefully make a honest living at the same time; the only thing is I need to secure a cargo ship first which I'll do once I return home."
"That won't be necessary," Tasha said opening a bag she carried and handed him a bill of sale "I took the liberty of purchasing you a freighter. It's brand new and should be just what you need," Tasha said.
Amos took the bill of sale and couldn't believe his eyes....then he realized he was standing there with his mouth hanging open "Tasha....you sure about this....I mean that's a lot of money....not that I'm not very grateful...but that's a lot of money" he said realizing he was repeating himself.
Tasha smiled "Yes I'm sure, it's a thank you for saving my daughter's life. Your always welcome on Klavor, this is the least I can do as a way of saying thank you."
Amos was so touched by Tasha's gesture of gratitude that he found himself having to fight back some tears...no one had ever shown him this kind of respect before. Then looking up towards Tasha "All I can say is thank you from the bottom of my heart' he replied then continued "I promise you that I will turn my life around and become successful in my new career....and it was my pleasure to help your daughter escape certain doom and misery."
Tasha stood "You saved her life, I'll leave you to your packing. Your freighter is on landing pad three. I wish you luck and I know you'll do fine."
"Thank you Tasha and may I say it was very nice to meet you...and yes I need to finish packing and get ahold of my wife" Amos replied as Tasha smiled and left his room.
