Denver Ricardo

"I really hope I am not going to run into Billy-Bob and his underdogs. I don't want to end my day ruined." he said to himself before smiling. "I can't believe Lisa Klein is my girlfriend." Danny smiles to himself again. "At least today I will get paid then I would treat her like the princess she is." He pick up speed wanting to get this day over. He has a date. Danny instantly knew the moment he made a huge mistake; stepping into the locker room…the camera was rolling; the primary focus the star of the school; quarterback; Billy-Bob… “Get that fucker…” Billy-Bob screamed in fury. He just managed to found the perfect moment to capture his newly develop muscles. “I…I am sorry,” Danny start but a punch in the stomach silence him. He felt his body being lifted from the floor. The football equipment dropped loudly on the locker room floor. “Please…don’t,” Danny begs feeling the dizziness grabbing around his head. “Shut up,” Sam said looking for approval toward Billy-Bob. “Where do you

Danny knew things would have been different if he was rich, but being poor and without money. It's all these people cares about. His body shook with anger and despair. He walk to the bar just outside of town. The money still clamped in his hand. His mind kept replaying what had happened to him. As he enters the bar, a couple of lifers looked curiously at him. He sits down at the nearest chair. “What can I get you?” the bartender stood in front of him. “What happened to your face?” “A bitch,” he suddenly snarl smacking the money on the counter. “Mild…hard…harsh…” the big man asks. “Huh,” Danny looked openly confused. “I got you, dude.” Danny watch him place a Beer in front of him. The door opened behind him. The rowdy footballers enter. He reached for his bottle of beer and took a giant swallow. He instantly chokes making the men close to him laughed softly. “Buy us a brandy and talk to us, boy.” The two men comes and sits down on both sides of him. He shrugs his shoulders befor

Danny climbed from the taxi in the center of Ricardo-Saint-Claire. He never even considered to come to this part of the town. Where he grown up everyone knows the rich and powerful lives and work here. He never even considered the possibility of being part of this society.“Dude, are you sure?” the taxi driver asked. “Why?” Danny realized he truly looked out of place. “Just checking.” Danny said nothing just paid him along with a generous tip. He slowly start to browse the luxury shops. The moment he step into a shop he noticed the salespersons looked at him like he was trash. Everything was extraordinary expensive. He always thought he knew Lisa but now he was uncertain what to get her. “Hello how may I help you?” the salesperson comes closer but also kept her distance. Apparently afraid his poorness might rub off on her. Her attitude was the norm where he was from. Danny just looked at her. The words feels stuck in his throat. He quickly turned around and run from the shop. Once

Lisa Klein was a girl raised to chase only the best provider. It took time and much effort before she landed Jason Clarke. She knows he sometimes step out on her. It was acceptable as long as everyone knows she was his girlfriend. “How is this possible?” she asked herself softly. “Just yesterday he was poor now today he can afford the most expensive item in the shop.” She stood motionless letting the last two weeks played off in her mind…Danny always picking her up at the entrance of the road leading towards their little house snuggly hidden between the heavy tree branches. She always made certain not one of her friends ever saw them together. She quietly admits she did enjoy the outings on the little boat in the lake in their background. She remembered ‘him’ making her laugh like she used too when she was a little girl. “Danny…” she whispered his name. She suddenly like the taste of his name on her tongue. She slowly start to realized she made a mistake…Jason was the obvious choice

Danny step out of the shop confused about what had just happened. As he walked towards the taxi he suddenly realized the truth. He quickly search for the signet ring, suddenly knowing the Manager knew which family he belonged too. “Now I understand why father said keep it close.” He said shaking his head. “The power in something so small.” About to get into the taxi he was surrounded by Jason and his friends. One look into Billy-Bob’s eyes and he knew he was in trouble again. “Loser…heard you are making trouble.” Billy-Bob said while bulging his muscles. “I don’t know what you are talking about.” Danny said flatly. “Are you calling me a liar?” “No, you are stupid.” Danny wonders if the ring was giving him courage. Just yesterday he wouldn’t have dared talking like that. “Grab the fool,” Billy-Bob orders his underdogs. Danny decided to run. At the moment he doesn’t care that he was a coward. He just don’t want to arrive at the party full of blood. One thing was certain, after t
