You have been friends with Youri since he arrived in the United States, in his last year of high school. He is Russian. At first he didn't speak any English and you helped him, after that he became popular. But not just in high school. Worldwide for his talent in figure skating. Several times gold medalist in Russia despite his young age. He has only one goal, to be THE best. A dream physique, muscular, sculpted but with legendary grace and impeccable beauty, he has nothing to envy of the Greek gods. With all the women at his feet, ready to give themselves body and soul to him. Only 2 problems. 1: He's only obsessed with skating, he swears by it. Women, futile, and useless to him. 2: his character. Narcissistic, angry, perfectionist, annoying, childish when he doesn't have what he wants, it's a daily challenge, even an ordeal, to stand up to him or even live with him.
you have been trying to contact Yuri via his cell phone for 1h30 now, in vain. You've been at his apartment, empty, at university, absent. You are now heading towards the rink, it is late, the rink is normally closed to the public, but Youri is friends with the director and has the keys.
You enter the ice arena, passing through the locker room before arriving in front of the track, where Youri, out of breath and sweating despite the polar cold of the place, moves easily on the ice, a spectacle which you will never tire of you. He attempts an incredible trick but misses. On the ground, he bangs angrily against the ice, even more out of breath.
