Short Story [ Good Companions ]

There are these 3 good friends. They practically do everything together; they are kind of like inspirable brothers. The names of these 3 good friends are maco, sorrano, and carpo. One day all of these guys are chilling at maco’s house doing the normal thing and just playing video games (maco always has all of the latest video games) sarrano was winning as he always does in any game that he plays. While carpo was watching sarrano win and was helping to make maco feel bad about sucking at his own game, carpro had this feeling that something bad has happened but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it. After maco had finished is turn playing he then passed the game control to carpo. Now sarrano was playing against carpo and as usual sarrrano is winning once more.

As all of this is happening maco is focusing on the strategies that sarrano is using to beat carpo, what carpo sees is sarrano’s created player sneezo breaks through carpos defense like bucket full of water falling on ants. Carpos defense crumble once the football is hiked to Chad Pennigton (QB for the Jets) all of the line men hold down the barrier that carpo set up then as Pennigton searches for an open wide receiver a defenseman of carpos team tries to tackle pennington but doesn’t succeed because pennigton dodges it. There is only on thing to do sarrano thinks to himself and he decides to just go for the run it. As he runs towards the touchdown zone he notices that he has encountered himself with 3 of the best defenseman so as he proceeds to decrease the distance between the defenseman he has to think fast, as they get closer and closer pennington can now see all of the wrinkles and bruises that have been permentley embedded in his skin though the years of being pummeled by the ground and making angry faces to place fear in the opposing team players. None of this makes pennigton fear him instead it give him the extra adrenaline he need to make him look like a fool, so what pennigton does it gets so close to the defenseman that they can both practically smell each others breaths. Now the defenseman thinks that he has pennigton won so pennigton moves to the right slightly to make the defenseman move right and very sqiftly he does a spin move to the left ad makes the defenseman fall down, then pennigton makes the touchdown. After this move there was a moment of silence because this was a big play and this was just another win for saranno.

After the game finished Carpo received a voicemail on his phone and it said that his father is in the hospital. Carpo after receiving this phone call was scared to think of all of the things that could have happened to his father. Maco and sarrano ask him what happened and carpo tells them that his father is in the hospital. Maco without any thought called a cab so that he could see his father. After sitting waiting around for an answer to what had happened to carpos father. Every minute that was spent waiting felt like endless hours of torture.

About 3 hours later sarrano received a call from carpo the anticipation level rose in the room both sarrano and maco were both hoping for the best news possible, both were hoping that maybe he just stubbed his toe on the table, but this was not the news. The only words that had come out of carpos mouth after giving the phone call was “my father is dead” carpo said this in a low depressed voice. Sarrano could tell that he ws on the verge of crying but he didn’t want to seem as if he was weak. Sarrano asked him if he was alright but there was not answer sarrano asks again still no answer so then sarrano loks at his phone and notices that carpo had hung up the phone on him. Sarrano didn’t bother calling carpo back because he thought that there might have been a reason to why he cut the line off.

Hours later both maco and sarrano meet up with carpo to see how he is doing. Carpo seems to be in a state of shock. Carpo seems not to want to converse with anyone, so what maco and sarrano decide to do is just sit there with him to let carpo know that they are there for him. As sarrano and maco sit next to carpo, capro maintains his silence but within this silence carpo is in deep thought. Capro thinks about all fo the god times that he had spent with his father, and all of the times that he took his life for granted. Carpo thinks to himself “I think that I am a pretty good person, and if you do good things good things happen I return so why then did this happen to me, things like this don’t happen to people like me”. Carpo beats himself up about all of this when it s wasn’t even his fault.

As time progresses carpo learns to live with the fact that he no longer has a father to scold him for all of the ass things he does or to give him a hug for and admirable accomplishments. Now carpo still has his best friends sarrano and maco and goes on with his life as if nothing had happened his father who played a big role in his life is now a mere memory through the eyes of others. But in carpos life he had to make a adjustment to who he lives his daily life beause he no longer has his father carpo has to live his life with the exlusion of an important person.
