There lived two close friends in a city called New York. They were Kelvin and Benjamin. Both friend took a vow that they would never leave each other. Unfortunately, they had no job. They decided to go to nearby forest to look for craps. They set off early in the morning. They had walked for only a short distance when they came across a wide river. Kelvin was greatly troubled because he couldn't swim. "Friend, don't be afraid! Just come and sit at my back, and I will help you cross the river; said Benjamin. Shortly afterwards, both friends swam and crossed the river safely. They departed and started looking for craps. Luckily, Benjamin found a pot full of gold. He called his friend to come and look at it. The two friends sang and danced happily together. They decided to come home to share the gold. As usual Kelvin carried the pot and sat at Benjamin's back to cross the river. In the middle of the river, the devil played a trick on Kelvin. He whispered to Kelvin to use the heavy pot to hit Benjamin. "If he dies,the gold will be yours ;you will be rich ";said the devil. Out of pure greed Kelvin used the pot to hit his friend's head. He didn't think about the result of his action. Also, he had forgotten he couldn't swim. Gradually, Benjamin twisted his body in pain and . drowned in the middle of the river. As Benjamin died slowly, and so his friend Kelvin because he did not know how to swim. This gives credence to the adage, "if you become too clever, you Will end greeting the goat".

"To bastards!" I said, gesturing to Vincent and Mason. "And to the girls that endure all the pain." I clicked Tina's glass while she watched me take another glass, "And to the absolute horror of getting a divorce a week before your birthday because you were stupid enough to like the bastard." I bowed while everyone stared at me. The anger radiated off Vincent while I took another glass. "This one is for you, my loving husband." I chuckled slurring as I got up, "I mean ex-husband, and you, if you may, please get the fuck out." I pointed between Mason and Vincent, a hiccup escaping my lips. "Both of you. Faith was the only thing that brought them back together, but will it be on their side again? Vincent and Laura had known each other since they were children. He searched for twelve years just to get her back, and when he did, his past began to emerge from the shadows, ready to claw back at him for all of his mistakes. Vincent Johnson, dubbed the "King of Business," was not to be underestimated. He made an impression on the world that no one could forget. He was domineering, and he drew a great deal of attention from many across the world. No one could ever match his power because he was godlike.
