Two weeks
Two wins
So what does one do after some success?
Why a trip home of course.
And that is where your buddy…
My buddy…
Your buddy’s buddy…
Went.
Home.
(Well his home away from home)
Arizona State Pen.
The door to his cell, of his home, of his “apartment” is open and Bester is styling today in tight black jeans, a western shirt, tucked in of course. The button up shirt is red and, yeah it’s a sight. Bester is holding a coffee cup that reads “I Love my Cat” on it. Sparky, the reason for his “apartment” is curled up laying on the table that is up against the wall across from his bed.
”Oh hello there! I didn’t see you. I was just here at home relaxing after another highly impressive win.”
Bester takes a sip of water.
”Okay so I heard that it wasn’t really that impressive of a win. I’ve been told a blind squirrel could have won that match last week and while I disagree with that line of thinking as Marcas Donovan is a highly skilled wrestler, that match was far from a push over. It was no gimmie. That really doesn’t make sense if you think about it.”
Bester takes a sip of water.
”Mr. Donovan didn’t give me anything. Nothing was handed to me. I earned that win. I worked hard, I trained hard. I listen to my trainers, from the scary man with the tattoos, Mister not so Mad Cyril and of course the man who made all of this possible, who is giving me and Sparky here hope that soon we will be able to break this lease on my apartment and go back home, Nanook. And of course, I can’t forget about everyone who showed up in New York last week to cheer me on, who supported me, who gave me that little extra push to capture the victory against Mr. Donovan and that is all of my new found buddies! Without you there Saturday night, I might be standing here having a completely different conversation.”
Bester takes a sip again and this time dribbles some water on his shirt. He wipes it with his hand.
”Oh my! I’m so messy. Good thing it’s just water and not chocolate milk. I would hate to stain my new shirt. Do you like my new shirt? I picked it up the other day at the Salvation Army, a little reward to me for have two excellent matches and if this trend I’m on continues. I might go back and get another. I feel like a superhero in this shirt….like a cowboy with specials powers or something. Like Zorro without the mask, and the horse.”
Bester poses and puffs out his chest.
”And I will need all of my superhero powers this week buddies. Bester has a big challenge in front of him this week. A guy who could end my streak. A streak of W’s that I have worked so hard to get and while this winning streak will undoubtedly one day end, I will not allow it to end without a fight! And this week...the fight is what I have to bring to that ring! The fight, this fight will be the fight of all fights! Uber fight! You see little Buddies, This week, this Saturday night, Bester isn’t going to have a match that you can’t watch on just regular old TV. No Bester is having a match on the big show! All Star Spectacular! Only the All Stars of the UWL get to have a match on this card! It says so in the title of the show! My career has just started and I’m already a All Star!”
Sip of water. No dribble this time.
”I wonder if that comes with a pay raise or some sort of bonus?”
As Bester ponders this, Sparky lifts his head and looks at him.
”Yes Sparky, Bonus money for you! You can have it all my little buddy you….yes I love you too!”
Bester sets his coffee mug down and leans over and scratches Sparky behind his ears and nuzzles up to him with his nose. After a couple of seconds of this Bester straightens up.
”Silas Romero is my opponent this week and from I have heard he is one tough customer! I’m not really sure what that means but that is what Mr. Nanook said. From what I have been told he travels around with the Joker's Wild……?”
You can hear the slight confusion in Bester’s voice.
”That’s that group of guys who hanging around that Drew Stevenson guy? The guy with belt? I don’t know what they have done but boy everyone sure seems mad at them.”
Bester shrugs
”All I know is that I’m not apart of any of that. I’m just here to win matches, make some money for my kitty and make some new buddies. Will I have new buddy after I fight Silas Romero? Who knows? Time will tell, all I know is that Saturday night, this all star is going to give it his all in pitting my skills against the Hipster Hercules….whatever that is. What I lack in experience I will more than make up is the sheer will to win. I learned early on in life on the football fields that you can’t beat the power of will power. Remember this Little Buddies, when you set your mind to anything, there is nothing you can’t accomplish and I’m setting my mind as we seek to defeat Silas Romero. Along with your support this Saturday night, my will power, my heart and the love of and from Sparky, there is no way Silas can win this week.”
Bester picks up his coffee cup.
”No way indeed.”
Bester smiles and takes a sip of water.
Fade out.
