BFF: I’ll be here waiting for that call!

Yeah, I’ll get on that, just like you told me what happened with Xavier.

BFF: Ugh! It was nothing climatic. We argued like we’d been married for twenty years.

Lol ttyl love you

Being lovesick was a serious thing. It did horrible things to my heart that I didn’t know how to deal with. Why anyone would want to risk going through this type of pain again in hopes of possibly finding their other half one day was beyond me. One heartbreak was enough to last me a lifetime.

This was removed from the airport scene when Adrianna was climbing the elevator after she parted ways with Kova.

Gymnastics had given me more than I could ever give back. I didn’t care if Kova saw me crying or anyone else for that matter.

I learned self-discipline at a young age and that money couldn’t buy everything, which in turn had caused me to understand that I painstakingly needed an abundance amount of patience to accomplish a skill. I was still learning that.

The deeper I got into the sport, I decided how to receive criticism and if I was going to use it in a constructive manner or allow it to cause me to crumble. My dream drained me, pulled tears from my eyes, and ripped back layers and layers of skin to prove a point, to show me how bad I really wanted something. But it never made me second-guess myself, and I never questioned if I couldn’t handle it. That thought had never crossed my mind.

There was so much more to gymnastics than how many back flips somebody could do.

I went to Kova for one reason. I had a dream, and he told me I was going to fight for it. He wasn’t kidding. He showed me how to thrive and conquer, that giving up shouldn’t be in my vocabulary because you don’t just challenge your body with a dream, you challenge your mind too. He taught me that a little fear was okay, but to trust in myself. I came to Kova with a dream of going to the Olympics, and he gave it to me.

And now my time with him was over.

Damn the pain in my chest. I could hardly breathe from missing the Russian.

I gambled on love, and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. I had no regrets because I knew it made me stronger.

Next time though, the timing would be right and there would be absolutely nothing that would keep us apart for any reason again. I was fairly certain I could speak for Kova on that one.

Against my better judgement, I was going to hold out hope for us.

Kova had left an indentation on my heart. I guess I did the same to him.

He’d see it every day when he looked in the mirror.

That fact that we have four daughters is a miracle.

“Daddy! Stop it!” Mia yelled with a belly laugh. I tickled her more and she tried to pull my hair. I was going to be bald by the time I was fifty if the twins caught on to Mia’s only weapon against me to stop tickling them.

We had considered adopting from Russia—her idea—but I was not ready to give up on having our own children one day, even if we were only granted one. I had never wanted little hellions until Adrianna had put the idea in my head, and now I cannot imagine my life without them.

“Daddy! Throw me in the air,” Nastia demanded, her red ringlets falling in front of her eyes.

“Me too, Daddy!” Svetlana, Nastia’s twin, screamed like a hyena in my ear.

I winced, going deaf for a split second.

After a strong plan of attack with her doctors, we finally fell pregnant after she began taking medicine, following all these ridiculous sex positions Adrianna insisted we try. I was game for anything, and watching her place her feet in the air after being fucked was hysterical. I obliged because why would I not? She swore it would help her get pregnant and made me hold her legs up. I told her it was not necessary. I got her pregnant once. I could do it again. The woman had no patience.

Because God could not just give me one hormonal female to deal with, he had to give me four daughters on top of it.

Yes, twins.

It was only during one of her routine appointments fourteen months after Mia was born we learned she was pregnant again, and that she was carrying twins.

Both my wife and I were still perplexed. We knew twins were a strong possibility because of Sophia combined with the potency of the fertility drugs, but we did not anticipate them.

“Again, Daddy!” Nastia said, elbowing her sister out of the way.
