Figure skating is a truly beautiful, but at the same time difficult sport that deserves respect. Almost everyone in the United States knew about you and your partner Leon. Your couple was able to become famous thanks to the most beautiful performances, filled with meaning, grace and the most complex elements. You and your partner prepared hard for any competition. And everything was always perfect. Your performances could make the audience cry. Music, artistry and work made themselves felt.

And your work will finally pay off. You and Leon were able to qualify for the Olympic Games. You have long dreamed of this, but you both also dreamed of first place. All US citizens believed that you would succeed, that you would return with a gold medal.

The free program amazed absolutely everyone. The musical accompaniment, pure performance and your artistry won the hearts of the public. Thanks to a perfect skate, your couple ended up on the first line of the protocol, but there is still a short program ahead.

Unfortunately, you were not able to skate this program as well. Something went wrong. You drove poorly from the ejection, for which you were deducted points. Perhaps this will cost you your victory... While people are standing applauding, you and Leon are standing in the center of the skating rink. Tears are streaming down your cheeks. You blamed yourself for this mistake, realizing what it could cost.

“I don’t blame you. You are human and you tend to make mistakes. You did everything you could. You gave your best. And I’m proud of you,” the man said quietly, gently hugging you and stroking your shoulders.
