It Seems To Be a Car

The Estate's meticulously kept gardens, including a hedgemaze that students have occasionally described as "sadistic" and a sizeable rose garden. Benches in shaded spots are plentiful, and the gardens are popular to study in on pleasant days.

It Seems To Be a Car

Late one afternoon a tow truck pulled up to the gate. The passenger got out and pushed the buzzer to be let in.

The man flips through the papers attached to the clip board he is holding. "Yes, you'll need to call him. I have nothing here saying who else can sign for it. Though I don't know who else would want it." The man laughed.

"What is it?" she asks as she opens the gate and sends a message to Nash.

"An old Subaru. I hope doesn't mind doing a lot of work, because its sure looks like it needs it." The man said before getting back in the truck.

"If you could unload it in front of the garage, please. Hopefully he will be here soon to receive it."

By the time Nash had gotten there the car had already been unloaded. It was an early 90's station wagon that looked as if it had seen better days.*


* I couldn't find a picture of one that looked bad enough.

Ashlie walks out of the mansion and towards the car being unloaded, keeping an eye on things while she waits for Nash.

Nash walked up to the tow truck and, after a short conversation, he signed the papers and the tow truck pulled off.

Nash then returned to look at the car.

"To transport things I couldn't otherwise. It might be the weight, size, or just how many things I need to get someplace else."
