My foolish heart

If you had a penny for every time you lied to me...

After thinking over and over, Gasly created a perfect plan. He definitely won't make it to Maja's match, but he would avoid a fight with Katerina. He took his phone and wrote:

Pierre
Princesse, the airline just changed my departure time. I'm deeply sorry...
But I will watch your match from the airport. Please, please forgive me
And of course our private medal ceremony will happen anytime soon 😘😘😘

Maja
I don't know what hurts the most, my ankle or your absence
Thanks for letting me know. Have a safe flight, Pierre. I will never forget these days ❤️

Pierre
Sweetie, this is painful for me too, but please don't write like that 💔
This is not a one shot movie. I believe in us. What about you?

Maja
I'm pretty sure I loved every single second alongside with you, but you are always traveling around the world and me too
Do you think we can make it?
I live in Blaj, you live in Milan... It's a five-hour flight
Oh, Pierre, I'm not ready to end whatever is growing between us, but I'm scared 🥺

Pierre
Don't be, my love 👩‍❤️‍👨
I'm gonna fight for us. If I need to take that freakin plane in the middle of the night just to wake up together, I'll take it. You deserve this... we deserve it 💞
It's gonna be hard, distance can be cruel, but baby, I'm all in 😍

Maja
I need you more than ever... 😭
Let's make it, my prince! 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨
You know what? At the podium, I'll throw a kiss to the cam 👄, and only us will know is all for you 😏

Later that night, Maja was on the court, ready to get that bronze medal. She won the first point in the match against Korea, but a couple of minutes later, she felt down with several pain and tears. She tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and a surgery was the only option.

At the airport, Pierre wasp in tears too. He wanted to be with her. This situation was a complete mess: he lied Maja, he cheated on Katerina... The easiest way would be broke with Kate and have a fresh start with his dear Serbian, but right now he was in the middle of a negotiation to recover his seat at Red Bull.

He needed to prove Marko, Christian and the whole world he was ready for the revenge. At Milton Keynes, the order was clear: he must be the best on and off track.

All these gossips around his personal life must stop. He was dating Katerina? That was fine for his bosses. In fact, they were happy because that means Pierre's womanizer fame would end. That's why, in the middle of Haneda Airport, the Frenchman decided to keep both women in his life.

Pierre
Ma princesse, you will come back stronger than ever. If you want, I can talk with my sister-in-law, she works at the best hospital in France
It was really nice to see you in podium and, despite all the pain, you sent me that kiss 🥰
Maja, I will give my life to see you smile again. I know this injury sucks, but you are not alone 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨
Volim te 💘 (Yes, I looked for that on Google 🤫)

Maja
Mon amour, this is so heartbreaking 😭 but, at the same time, I'm extremely happy. I came to Tokyo dreaming with a medal (which I already have 🥉) and now... I dream with you every night 👫
Don't worry, I will flight to Barcelona in order to have this annoying surgery 😓. Thanks anyway
But tell me, any plans for your summer break? You said you will travel to Rouen with your family, right? Happy to see them again?
Oh, and... je, t'aime 💕

Pierre felt like shit when he read that. Maja thought he was at Rouen with his parents because he told her that. Well, the truth is he was at Ibiza, with Katerina, trying to explain to her why he spent so much time with his phone. So, in order to calm her down, he gave her the Serbian flag he bought for Maja's game. The driver, as usual, said another lie: "Look, babe, Novak sent you this".

While Katerina went crazy and quickly posted her gift at social media, Pierre took the chance to escape to the bathroom and write to Maja one more time that day:

Pierre
Family is fine, love. Hopefully, you can meet them soon 😎
When is your surgery? I'm gonna be by your side and this time I won't fail you
I'll fly to Barcelona, so I can take care of my lovely and gorgeous girl 😙. Send me your flight itinerary as soon as you can
Good night from Rouen, ma princesse 😘. Je t'aime aussi 💏💏💏
