“No way. That guy was a queer as a three dollar
bill,” Rick replied then got curious. He opened up the
cash register and removed Rocky‟s check. He
looked at the name. “I don‟t fucking believe it,” Rick
said in disbelief.
“Maybe it‟s just some type of college prank,”
Howie said while he thought about it some more.
Rick thought about Howie‟s comment, and then
his eyes lit up when it dawned on him. “That‟s it! It‟s
one of those college pranks,” Rick said then they
both chuckled.
Meanwhile, at the Italian Stallion, Sal was happy
that he had a profitable night with most of his patron
being kids from the college.
He drank a glass of red wine while he glanced at
the some kids at a nearby table.
“I can‟t believe how Rocky played like a girl,”
Kenny told the two girls and guys at their table.
Sal almost spit out his wine when he heard
Kenny‟s comment.
He got up and walked over to the table. “Excuse
me, what did you just say about Rocky Malone?” Sal
asked while he stood near Kenny.
“Oh nothing,” Kenny replied.
“No! You said something about him playing like
a girl!” Sal said and he looked threatening.
All of the kids at the table looked intimidated by
Sal.
“He was just fooling around at practice and
pretended he didn‟t have his superstar skills,” Kenny
replied.
Sal looked very interested while he walked back
to the bar. “Johnny, get that turd on the phone,” Sal
told him.

“Yes boss,” Johnny replied while he walked over
to the phone and made a call.
“Sal wants to talk to you,” Johnny said into the
phone then he walked it over to Sal.
“When is that practice game?” Sal asked Ernie.
“Tomorrow afternoon at two,” Ernie replied from
the phone.
“I‟m showing up so you better be there,” Sal said
with a threatening tone. He hung up the phone and
took a drink of wine and started to smile while he
thought about Ernie‟s plan.
Later that night, Rocky walked into his dark
dorm room. He flipped on the light switch and
noticed Jake was not in the room.
Rocky tiptoed around the trash on the floor like it
would give him some disease.
Rocky dropped his shopping bags on his bed.
He turned around and looked back at all of the trash
on the floor. “Pigs,” he said while he shook his head
in disgust. He emptied one of his shopping bags and
dumped out more designer types of clothes on his
bed.
Rocky spent the next 15 minutes cleaning up the
trash off the floor and removed all the nudie women
pictures off the wall on the wall by his bed. He
looked over at Jake‟s bed and shook his head in
disgust at all the nudie women pictures on his wall.
He quickly stripped down naked and reached in
one of bags and removed some items he bought at
the mall.
Fifteen minutes later, Rocky finished his shower
and came out of the bathroom wearing a silky purple
bathrobe and purple slippers. He had some Olay
nighttime face cream caked on his face.
