After the death of his wife, Maureen, Billy Hope is a lost boy in a tumultuous world of men and beasts. He doesn't know the first thing about being a father or a man, not really. Everything that meant anything at all of real value in their lives was handled by Maureen. Now the fighter is on the ropes, no, on the canvas and it looks like no one will help him...

Just a short little ficlet about Billy and Maureen after one particular fight.

Just something that came into my head and I wrote down. It's set just before the party in which Maureen gets shot.
