1. Chapter 1

The smell of the florescent ocean filled my nostrils, as I looked out upon the ocean. The seagulls were flying high above my head, watching, waiting for the fish to appear in the shallow water. As I was enjoying the radiant heat from the sun I heard a beeping noise in a far off place. The longer I listened, the louder the noise seemed to get. Then all of a sudden someone started calling my name, I looked around but I saw nothing. All I could hear was

"Dimka, Dimka , DIMKA!"

Groaning I opened my eyes, only to be met by the most dreadful eyes, I have ever seen. Tasha my girlfriend said,

"Finally you wake up!"

"I'm sorry my love, I though your voice was a part of my dream."

I look at the clock and shoot out of bed. Man I'm going to be late for work. Scurrying around I get quickly dressed. I put my cowboy boots on and find my duster. I ran out the door to my car. Awe come on I seriously forgot my keys. Come on Dimitri get it together. Running back into my apartment I grab my keys and run back to my car. Finally I can get to work now.

Now would probably be a good time to introduce myself. I'm Dimitri Belikov. I'm a 6'7" Russian with dark brown eyes and light brown short messy hair. I live in a small town in Russia called Baia with my girlfriend Tasha we share an apartment. I have an obsession with westerns; I like cowboys if you can't tell by what I wear. I work on a ranch in the southern part of town with my friend Ivan. We tend to the horses and do land work usually whatever our boss wants us to do.

My boss is not someone you want to mess with. He's very demanding and usually causes more trouble for me than anyone I know. But it's the only place I can work, until I can afford to get out of this town. I've been saving up money so I can go to America. My father when I was younger left me and my mama to go to America. He promised me that he would come back. Well let's just say a five year old kid would get his hopes up. I'm twenty-four now and guess what no sign of my father. I have about nine hundred dollars saved up but I'd like to go to America with at least a thousand. This means only one more week on this ranch.
