Chapter 18 - Surge an unexpected idea!

On Sunday, we met at my house and we review our newsroom. Meanwhile, Camille talked and told me that if it turned a skater, probably do medicine as their fathers, who was very proud. This matter did she ask me:

_ What about you, Sophia? Already have something in mind?

I had a predetermined idea, so I merely say that had not even thought about it.

_ Perhaps you end up following the same profession of their parents like me. What do they do and where they are?

At some point someone would ask it, which led me to prepare an earlier answer,

They were Camille _.

Technically, it was not a lie. It would be if I said they were killed. She immediately exclaimed:

_ I'm sorry, I would not have asked if he knew!

_ All right, let's just change the subject. Why do not you tell me how Ania became your best friend?

_ Ah ... It was very natural! She and Natasha were born in Russia and lived there for a long time. We met about four years ago at the time when she came to live in Paris. Her father Leon is French and when his grandmother fell ill, they came to live here. The maternal grandfather of Ania, Yuri Kozlov was Olympic champion because his mother only runner-up. She managed to win a world championship, three European and Russian national was champion twice, but never dreamed Olympic gold to a skater that's pretty frustrating. It also means that Ania and Natacha suffer a lot of pressure to continue the family legacy.

When they arrived in Paris, they began to train in the little school that I attended and the mother was always very strict them. About a year later, the owner decided to sell the site. Regina and Tatiana were longtime friends, met at the time competed together and ended up becoming partners. There was a major reform, hired new technicians and choreographers who have implemented a new methodology.

_ Camille, you think I could learn to skate? Just for fun!

_ Of course Sophia! It has a new class for beginners as long as you do not mind learning from the children. They practice three times a week, if your grandmother does enrollment in the second, you can start then.

_ Thank you talk to about it. Well, now that we have finished the job, we can go to lunch.

Soon after Camille's mother come to get her, I went to see my grandparents and asked them to let me do skating lessons. At first, Grandma showed a little hesitant because of school and proposed:

_ Honey, I can see how much is enthusiastic about this idea. Why do not we do a deal? I make your entry in skating lessons and in a month you decide whether to continue. We will try to reconcile the time, however, his grades in school should remain good!

I thanked her for her support and said that there would be no reason for disappointment. Monday morning, we present our interview that Victoria was satisfied with the result, by the way we took a great note. I shared with Camille, Ania, Tess, Christina and Ariane news that learn to skate. They encouraged me and in a short time I realized that we were already a team: six girls with different personalities together is completed, even with Ariane and Camille have their differences.
