Chapter 26 - I do not want special treatment!

I could finally return to the ring! Our choices always generate consequences in my case had to push myself twice during training. It was hard, but I had assumed that commitment. Regina was as objective, the girls complained of his style "perfectionist", it did not bother me, only I was afraid of not being able to accompany them.

Still, the method she used me proved quite different. I began to notice that she was always careful and at times even kind. A few days later, I heard little comments of girls, according to them, Regina was favoring me for being a newcomer and I did not deserve, because neither was good skater. One of them told me:

_ The coach does not handle heavy or you would not last a week here!

I told him what was going to Camille, who made an analysis:

_ Regina certainly was impressed with his progress so quickly. This is the first time I see you interested in training an inexperienced skater, who usually takes care of this is Miss Bonnett. Most of the time, Regina takes care of bureaucratic matters and oversees Senior level athletes, such as Natasha. That means she believes in you, do not listen to gossip!

The girls are just feeling threatened by the skill you have demonstrated. Sophia try to remember that the world of skating is very competitive. There will always be someone trying to pull your carpet or destabilize you.

I honestly tried to listen to the advice of Camille reassured me a little, but something kept bothering me. I reflected, and something occurred to me: Would Regina did it out of pity? It was clear, as I did not realize before, it was just behaving so after learning the truth.

I decided I should confront her. I went to Regina and so I saw exclaimed:

_ How could I be so blind! I do not like to treat me like a victim, pitiful. If you think I'm not able to stay here, I can go smoothly. Just do not make a fool of me.

_ Sophia, what's happening?

_ You will deny that the reason for being so helpful and nice to me is because you know the truth. I do not need special treatment. I heard when my grandmother told you how Phillip died, my mother blamed me and she never wanted me. You know I tried to commit suicide. I do not need the other girls think she is favoring me and start making up rumors about me.

_ Sophia, sorry if I went the wrong impression, it was never my intention. I can not even imagine their suffering. You have experienced terrible things that no child should face.

To answer your question I do not feel sorry for you because since I met her I was surprised by their uniqueness. What do you think if we take a walk? I would like to clarify all your doubts. I'll call Amelia and ask permission.

_ All right, as long as you do not lie to me.
