Wednesday morning, Ricky was sitting in his office doing some paper work for the other coaches and Danny when he heard his phone vibrating from its spot beside his keyboard. He looked at it and saw it was him and the boys' group chat they made without Clover in it for situations they didn't want her to know about or when they wanted to surprise her.

I told her good morning and asked if Dante was doing any better. She just said good morning back and that he's squeezing his mom's hand when she talks to him, meaning he can hear.

No one knows. Only Dante knows. Seeing how he is, I hate to say it but I doubt it.
Ricky set his phone down and let out a deep sigh reading Diego's last message. He ran his hands over his face as he felt like life really hit him. It's fast and it could be taken away quickly.
"Hey."
Ricky's head shot up to see Victor standing there with his arms crossed. "You okay?" The older man wondered.
Ricky sighed heavily. "No, man. This whole Dante accident thing is messing with my head."
Victor leaned against the wall and gave Ricky a honest look, a look for a raw emotion. All Ricky saw was sadness and unsureness.
