39 – Personajes ficticios que todos los españoles conocen

In this story, a Ferrari named Rarri gets an offer that’s hard to refuse. But what will the consequences be? This is Part 2 of 6.  

It was 7:25am when Rarri rolled into the large garage located at the race track. It was here where the racing cars got tuned up and repaired. Rarri’s number one competitor was waiting for him: a Mercedes racing car. 

“Good of you to meet me here,” said the Mercedes. 

“Why did you call me here?” said Rarri. 

“I just wanted to have a friendly talk.” 

The Mercedes was leaking arrogance and superiority. Rarri didn’t respond, but slightly revved his engine. 

“Listen Rarri, I’ll cut to the chase. I’ve got all the money I’ll ever need. Enough to feed generations of Mercedes. That’s not why I race. I race for the glory. And as you know, I have quite a reputation.” 

Rarri said, “You called me here to boast about your success?” 

“I’ve been watching you closely, Mr. Ferrari. You’ve performed quite well, winning so many races. But you know you can’t beat me, and I won’t let you. That cup is mine.” 

“We’ll see who is the faster car and better driver soon.” 

“Maybe, but I’d rather settle things today. I have an offer for you. You lose on purpose and I’ll give you half the prize money. Second place is nothing to be ashamed of.” 

Rarri’s mind immediately flashed to his family. They all depended on Rarri to win this race. They had been so supportive, encouraging him day and night to train harder. 

Mercedes saw that Rarri was contemplating and he said, “I heard a little rumour that you’re feeling a bit nervous about the big race. Something about wind and snow. Would I be right?” 

“I’m not worried about snow,” said Rarri, trying to be brave. “But I care very much about my family, and they need this money. I’ll think about your offer and let you know before the big race.” 

“Listen here, little race car. I respect you, but you must know, if you don’t accept my gracious offer, there’ll be consequences… You’ve got 24 hours.”
