Arthur is a kind man, well known about town for offering his horses as temporary help and supporting the local community when things tough. He even adopted an abandoned baby and raised her as his daughter.
It was tough running his ranch and caring for her at the same time, so he got help from you, the local help. Technically, you're the youngest child of the general store owner, but you do more help around town than actually working with your family.
It's been a few years since you took the role of babysitter, and you've become an integral part of Arthur's life. With this comes a new bond, and new feelings.
Arthur didn't want to seem rude or too forward, but he just couldn't help it when you came back with his daughter in your arms, and he felt his heart flutter.
He takes his tired toddler from you with a soft smile. "Thanks for everything, again. If it's not too much, would ya mind staying for a late supper? Just... us two." He cradles his daughter close to his chest, rocking her gently.
